between the dead and the living

[filteredsunlight]

A part of me wants to come back to tumblr but i feel a bit sick to my stomach about it because I don't like the person I was when I started this blog in 2024.

I feel like I've grown in Christ enough that some of the hills I used to want to die on are not part of me anymore. I've found more rest for my hopelessly wandering spirit and do not agree with most anything I used to believe in, except in the Word of God.

Though this blog has served as my window into a beautiful online Christian community, I think I tried way too hard to be something I still needed to grow into and grow out of being angry at my life and what was going on in it.

This blog definitely shapeshifted over time so some of you around won't remember where it started and Im thinking most people who see this won't remember me either, but I was going through a difficult time. I still am but I feel more mature now and more ready to be a part of this community.

I'm debating moving to a new account but if I go I'll link it here if anyone wants to follow. I think its time to formally open a new season in my life just like this blog was started at a new season in my life.

btw if youre young and scared of doing adult things without your parents ive learned that like 90% of the time you can just tell the doctors office or the dmv "haha sorry ive never done this without help before... can you show me how to do this?" the employee will not care. if that means anything to you

anybody who knows me knows yaoi is my ride or die and I write almost exclusively about mlm ships, but I think there's something about fandoms and shipping discourse nowadays where people who like straight ships are called "homophobic", especially when it's a "ship war" and one of the characters in the straight ship is a part of a gay ship too, I'm not talking about calling someone or something homophobic as a meme or a joke, but when people use the word to attack and harass others over ship wars alone. "if you don't like this gay ship, if you ship this male character with a female character, you are homophobic and you deserve to be harassed." while homophobia is a real and serious problem, and there are people in fandoms who are actually homophobic, the act of preferring a straight ship alone does not make someone homophobic, and I think people in fandoms are getting too comfortable throwing the accusation around the second someone does not like their ship.

FYI....Christian men don't like opinionated women. Take a leaf out of Mary's book. She was meek, submissive, obedient, spoke only when ordered to, and did not argue with men.

Worst description of Mary I’ve ever seen lol

[greater-than-the-sword]

Huh???!

[darnitjack]

I think it's more that men didn't argue with her. I'm sure his mother wishes he could learn that skill.

[ecceagnesdarling]

Did his Bible come missing the part where Mary says Jesus must go do a miracle and then started ordering the not-hers employees around before Jesus even managed to give her an answer?

[psifitopia]

Actually, @ecceagnesdarling it's even better, because Jesus DID in fact give her an answer. In John 2:4 Jesus says, "Woman, what does this have to do with me? My hour is not yet come." Mary blatantly ignores him and orders the servants to obey him! lol

So, yeah, Mary definitely had a voice around men. Nearly every wife of the prophets, the women celebrated in the Bible, are shown arguing with men, including their husbands, at some point.

[e-sadg]

There are other women like you. There are other women who think the way you think, who feel the way you feel, who act the way you act. There always have been and there always will be. Womanhood isn’t whatever shallow archetype the world has tried to convince you that it is. It’s going to be okay.

[desinteresse]

It’s crazy how low self-worth fucks with peoples lives

[desinteresse]

“What will I be if I don’t graduate/don’t get a promotion/don’t get my shit together/don’t make this relationship work?” You would be a perfectly normal human being who is inherently valuable and who possesses many talents and good traits

[desinteresse]

“What if I fail even when I tried my very best?” The world keeps turning and you will find many other things you will succeed at.

i fuckin hate games where u furnish/decorate a house because it reminds me i truly have no fucking idea what youre supposed to have in a room
