“Straight-married”? Personally, I’m not interested in using the person she’s married to as a means to determine if she’s queer or not. Let’s critique her for sure, but not like this. Just my 2¢.

I follow a lot of deconstruction accounts both regular folks and some with big followings here and on IG. Most of them never follow me back, even if we've interacted before. Any other BIPOC folks relate? Is it just me? 😁
This.
There is no neutral. Most especially letting "nature take its course" when we could intervene is *not* neutral.
Reparations Friday! 👇
I’m proud of these students. I’m disgusted by the police. There is no need for this kind of force just to get someone off a patch of grass.

Deconstruction is not a guarantee of decolonization. Walking away from church doesn’t mean you walked away from the idea of being the center of everything. If you don’t know what I’m talking about, I’m probably talking to you.

Dammit, now @thepursuinglife has caused me to start considering how witch covens and Christian small groups are both similar and dissimilar. Thanks a lot, Meghan! 😝
@thepursuinglife So maybe I'm just biased in favor of small groups.
@thepursuinglife Deconstruction Coffee Hour does have a small group feel to it. But I don't think small groups are an inherently bad idea. Perhaps how they're used and weaponized, sure. But I'm now part of a tradition that tends to be heavily organized in small groups. We call them covens.

@nygbrd714 Thank you, Brad. I appreciate your kind words and I am also glad we met! 💛
@KirkMcCall68 Kirk! I’ve never known your full deconstruction story until now and it is a lovely story! (Also a relatable one). Thanks for sharing it. So glad we crossed paths on the interwebs.
“All that time you were throwing punches I was building something” I’ve never been happier with who I am than now. I’m still curious, learning, growing, thinking, listening, and thoroughly enjoying the journey I’m on. I love my life. So yeah, thanK you aIMee.
I’m no longer singing “F*** you, aIMee”, but instead, “Thank you, aIMee”. These lyrics really resonate with me… “I built a legacy that you can't undo But when I count the scars, there's a moment of truth That there wouldn't be this if there hadn't been you.” and
As I became more comfortable with who I was becoming, her words weren’t quite as loud in my head. I wasn’t imagining as many conversations. The anger was lessening. I was healing. And it dawned on me that without aIMee’s comment, I might not have traveled down the road I’m on.
I was resentful towards her and imagined many conversations in my head where I would confront her and unleash a lot of frustration and anger for what she said. This went on for years. But then a change happened.
I found lots of new friends on Twitter who accepted me and loved me without requiring me to believe a certain way. Deconstructing can be painful and rewarding at the same time, though. I still heard the echoes of aIMee’s comments in my mind all the time.
At first I was shocked and devastated by her comment. I realized that staying in the good graces of my evangelical friends depended on me toeing the party line. I was tempted to stifle my curiosity and retreat. But I didn’t.
One particular exchange is seared into my mind. Two of my friends were having a discussion in my replies, and one of them said, “Kirk used to be a good guy until he started teaching in public schools.” I will call her aIMee.
Fast forward to 2020 and the chaos of that year. I began asking questions I never had permission to ask before. I was still on Facebook 🙄 and posted many of those questions there. I was eager to learn and explore. And then the pushback happened, as it does.
I quickly realized that people in a “secular” setting weren’t who I was told they would be. I met a lot of people who voted Democrat, belonged to unions, were pro-choice, identified as LGBTQ, and all the other things on the “bad list”. And, gasp, I liked them.
My favorite song from The Tortured Poets Department is thanK you aIMee. Here’s why… In 2018, I started teaching at a public school after 22 years in a private Christian school (and 5 years of being a pastor). Up to that point my entire life was lived inside evangelicalism.
@thepursuinglife @KirkMcCall68 Cannot. I cannot.
