I've shared this pic before, but time to share it again. It was taken in 2000, long before woke or LGBT rights were common words. My father is helping me with my bowtie, as I'm getting ready to go to my high school prom with another woman. I stopped speaking to him in 2019...

“take care of yourself and remember that taking care of something else is an important part of taking care of yourself”

What I wrote last night, full length version.

if by trad religion, you mean a return to the world-embrace and self-effacement you’d find among the quakers, with its love of this verse, then fine: “proclaim liberty throughout all the land unto all the inhabitants thereof: it shall be a jubilee unto you” — leviticus 25:10

My own view, perhaps unwelcome, is the Left needs a dramatically new bottom-up solidarity that's far more affirmative of traditional religion. It is losing contact not only with many ordinary people but also ancient republicanism virtue politics & Abrahamic spiritual sources.



This time yesterday, Marilynne Robinson - who moved states from Iowa after its recent swing towards Trump - read the Ann Selzer poll, and began to hope she’d been wrong. That the old radical Iowa of her novels shone through yet. Iowa 55.9% for Trump 42.7% for Harris 😔

Last night’s sound. It’s how they used to sing in the old non-conformist churches up + down these lands - but, in 2024, in Sussex, this is for all faiths and none. Someone led a song for the one she misses most, “gone over by boat, over to Canaan land.” Song: Wayfaring Stranger

Jesus: “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites — for they love to stand and pray on the street corners…to be seen by others. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your God, who is unseen.” (Matthew 6:5-6)

Last week, Trump said “tariff’s a more beautiful word than love.” Meanwhile, his “evangelical” “Christian” disciples screw their eyes shut in prayer. Shows just how desperate it all is, listening to someone so genuinely Christlike in her rebuttal of senselessness on every point.

The Interviewer, Ezra Levvannt was Tommy Robinson’s former Boss. He interviews a lovely Irish lady around the grand canal. He got completely destroyed with logical responses,a big smile and kindness. We live in a world where you’re interrogated if you practice humanity.

In your opinion, what is the single greatest photograph in history?



“…For all we know it could have made him disarmingly beautiful.” Marilynne Robinson on the mark of Cain. ✨

Yassified Cain for his own protection.
