Headline: The Christian Right is coming for divorce next:

OOH - Of course they are.

OTOH - time to embrace the tenets of Adrienne Rich's anti-comp het classic essay (*Compulsory Heterosexuality and Lesbian Existence*) and reject marriage, period. (as well as childbearing and financial dependence on cishet men.)

The Christian right is coming for divorce next

Some conservatives want to make it a lot harder to dissolve a marriage.

Everything about Christian fascists is about trapping someone in a situation they don't want.

Their whole vibe is predatory, abusive, oppressive, and anti-liberatory.

Don't wanna be pregnant -- for any reason? Too bad. We're forcing you to give birth.

Don't want to be married to your jerk of a spouse? Too bad, suck it up, bucko. You married her - she's yours .... FOREVER.

Don't want to live life as the wrong gender? LOL, jokes on you, there are only 2 genders and you already have one.

Ugh. These people.

The Christian Right is just full of effing horrible people who should never be allowed to have power over anyone. Period.

I guess that's my #Juneteenth sermon of the day.

With a special coda:
[ahem]

Juneteenth IS for, by, and about Black people.

I've seen some posts here there everywhere giving it some bullshit Memorial Day vibe.

Nope.
It's a VERY SPECIFIC MOMENT with VERY SPECIFIC SIGNIFICANCE to a VERY SPECIFIC PEOPLE.

Anyway, enjoy your day off.
