The fact that since Kamala Harris entered the race there is a thing called #hopescrolling now.
Start celebrating the holidays early (it's not a crime!) with these 75 Christmas albums I wrote about for PARADE last year. Be sure to check out MY Christmas record, too—available at Bandcamp, the iTunes Store, and Spotify!

With the arrival of Amazon's Christmas catalog, it occurs to me that the word "catalog" is a wasted wordplay opportunity. I'm a cat person, but "dogalog" seems like a better fit, no? Sometimes I am silly. :)

To @taylorswift13: My daughter Evie and her bestie, Lucy, baked a #Lover cake last night in your honor. I thought you needed to see it! 🎂🎂🎂 #Swifties

A simple truth: Just because someone does not understand your reasoning for something does not mean you are obligated to make yourself intelligible to them.

She only needs $300 more to cover her late rent payment and prevent eviction. Can any of you help? gofundme.com/f/catching-up-w…

My pal Rebekah is up to $725 out of the $1695 she needs to keep her house. She and her kids need this, folks. Can you help? If you can't contribute, can you at least share her fundraiser? gofundme.com/f/catching-up-w…
My friend Rebekah just got a new job, but needs💰to avoid being evicted before her first paycheck arrives. Would you pretty please consider helping her & her kids keep their house? Thank you!📷#GoFundMe #HelpUsHelpThem #Support #RaiseMoney #PayItForward

Lemme tell you about the time I wore @SpongeBob boxers when I took my toddler to @McDonalds Playland. Things went sideways fast. chadthomasjohnston.substack.…

My friend @jennintheattic's fundraiser is almost at $6K, people. Can we help her out a little more? #Trans people are hurting right now, and this is one way you can help one very loving family hurt a little less. gofundme.com/f/help-trans-re…
My pal @jennintheattic and her family are #trans refugees who are escaping Missouri. Her moving fundraiser has already exceeded its goal, but if you want to help, you can still contribute. It would do her heart a world of good! gofundme.com/f/help-trans-re…
I have known @jennintheattic for almost 20 years and I can say with confidence that she loves Jesus, loves those who are often most unloved by the church from the LGBTQ community, and is braver than every one of her critics, who have nothing to lose by spewing invective.

Know this: @jennintheattic has been called many things for doing her best to be a good mother to her child, and peoples’ assumptions about what that entails are wildly off base and reflect the ugliness of our politics more than anything of her personhood.

So thankful for all who helped @jennintheattic meet and exceed her moving funding goal! For all the ugly comments I have seen directed her way this week because of this, I am heartened by human kindness too.

My pal @jennintheattic and her family are essentially being forced out of Missouri. Help this amazing pastor, wife, mama, and advocate for trans people move her family to a safer state. gofund.me/29ef67b8
