(would that even save the posts if SBC got taken down?)

i need to be able to filter for the posts about my daycare kids, so im gonna be tagging them #todaywiththekids

It seems like I might actually manage to be more active on Mastodon so why not make an #Intro post

When I have to use a name, I prefer Ijon. I'm GenZ and just finished High School (Spring 2019). Currently I work in childcare with children aged 2-6 and next year I want to go to school to become a preschool/kindergarten educator. Then I wanna study psychology (I'm gonna do both. Somehow.)

My views on politics are anywhere in the LibSoc corner of the Political Compass. I'm still exploring so feel free to send me any easy-to-read/listen to leftist stuff

I'm neurodivergent, probably autistic+ADD (Attention Deficit Hyp*o*activity Disorder /s).

I'm also a white christian european and if I ever say some ignorant bullshit, pls call me out on it

so i guess i'm trying matrix again @ijyx@riot.im (f it, is it even possible for me to @ my matrix?)

any groups y'all would recommend?

i guess it's unlikely i'll get a reply to this, but do any other introverts have experience living at the internationalist commune of #rojava ? Or another form of communal living?

someone is trying to tell me that there's nothing antisemitic about the gospel of John

starting work again tomorrow

why is everyone talking about lana del rey?

So, quite a while ago I've heard about the theory that Jesus was an essene

What I did *not* know is that the essenes are listed on wikipedia's list of past anarchist societies

Which makes the theory a whole lot more interesting to me...

watching a video taken last year

my brother: "they're not staying at a distance of two meters!!"

the gospel of john is bad fanfiction

Christianity has been used as a tool of oppression for centuries. That won't just go away. Many beliefs we have came into existence solely to justify oppression

Christianity was based on values of equality. If we want to go back to that, we need to acknowledge the ways our faith has been abused

i'm fucking sick of "less and less people are religious, that's so terrible 😫" -christians

Why is the dollar sign always before the number? Is there a part of the US that says "dollar thirty" instead of "thirty dollars"? Who came up with that?
