I’ve done and said many cringy things in my lifetime. The one I’d like to apologize for most is my Coldplay phase in high school
Checking Twitter today to see if it’s still there is like when all of us evangelical kids kept checking to make sure our families didn’t get raptured without us
You’re all laughing to mask the discomfort, but if we lose Twitter we lose @Marten_Nelson

A lot of @kkdumez’s critics aren’t pleased with her “lack of solutions” offered in J&JW but are failing to recognize she’s a(n) historian and that’s not the point of the book.
Also, could the solution be as simple as…don’t be a misogynist, or racist, etc.?
