People's March, Washington DC, 18 January 2025

[drivelikeaminister]

People's Rally Invocation

Yesterday was the People's March in Washington, DC. I had the honor of giving the invocation at a local rally in Norristown, PA. Below is the text of the prayer.

I am here this afternoon as a Unitarian Universalist minister and also as a member of Clergy for Choice for Planned Parenthood Delaware. How, you might wonder, can a member of the clergy be also involved with reproductive rights? The answer is that religion does not have to be a force of divisiveness, nor a place of control and power. Religion can also be a force of coming together, of recognizing and upholding the worthiness of each and every person. So, in that variety of our beliefs and our non-beliefs, in the variety of our labels and our individualities - and in our agreements on the importance of democracy, justice and human rights for all - let us join our minds and souls in prayer.

To the highest spirit of all our aspirations, to that which grounds us and uplifts us, to that which transcends us and which we create - we come in prayer this afternoon. Our prayer is one of desperation and hope. We are in despair that gatherings such as this are needed. We are frustrated that politicians and governments continually put value on money and power while ignoring the value inherent in all people. We are angry that our leaders put themselves first with no regard for whom they step over or on.

In the midst of the anger and frustration is hope - hope that we are here, hope that a loving world is indeed possible, hope in the faith that love can and will triumph over hate. We know that every person is worthy of love and with that knowledge we will continue to work and strive for a more just world where the disenfranchised are heard, where the broken are held in care and where siblings of all backgrounds are welcome.

We do not pray for miracle changes in policy and leadership. We do not pray for miracles because we know that we are the miracles. We are the force of the divine in the world, we are the holy wind of change promoting more love and more justice. Instead we pray that our words are heard, we pray that our actions create a more just, more loving and more equitable world.

Look at those to your left and right. Take a look at yourself, your hands and feet. You are looking at the divine embodied. Not only do we pray, but we are the answer to our own prays. We are the force of the holy responding to our own desperation and hope. You are that divine force of goodness and justice we have been waiting for.

Remember that - today and forward into this trying year and the years to come. You are worthy of love. No matter what others might say, you are worthy of love. And, you are responsible for promoting the justice you seek in the world. You are the love we are praying for.

Amen and amen.

Im going to a protest tomorrow. I just bought a bunch of water and snacks for people and am making some signs. This drawing is literally did when thinking about the new house bills so I made it a sign. Me hugging my inner child or future girls - wishing adults would protect them.

Before the media tries to spin the narrative about the peoples march, it wasn’t simply about Donald Trumps inauguration. This was about all of our rights as a collective being violated by the same people who took an oath to protect the Constitution and the people of this country.

Womens rights, Trans Rights, Inequality for POC, and so so so much more. They would rather ban an app than focus on the real issues at hand. Our food is poison, we cant afford housing, we cant afford food, we cant have good healthcare because of corporate greed, our youth isn’t safe at school, we can’t go out in public without fearing being in large crowds of people due to these mass shootings, street drug use is growing more and more rampant but yes, a fucking app is the main problem.

This Government is an absolute joke and it makes me physically ill.

I’m going to start reading The Handmaid’s Tale. I figure it’s fitting to our countries current situation. I also want to take the time to apologize to any woman who may read this. I’m sorry our country doesn’t see it fit to protect your basic human rights.

women's people's march really is a joke now. I saw a tweet that was literally something like:

"trans people are included

trans people are included

trans people are included

trans people are included

trans people are included

trans people are included"

You sound insane. Just like tras. Next they'll be posting "Xir's included. Xir's included. Xir's included" SMDH

Idk if anyone who follows me is a Bay Area resident like myself, but there's a march happening tomorrow in San Francisco and I want to spread the word.

There are explanations of where and when things are beginning and what you're encouraged to bring and do during the march. If you are not in the greater Bay Area and cannot participate in person, please share this so folks who are local can see it and RSVP.

I hope to see you there <3 ! We are NOT letting a neo-fascist oligarch run this country easily, I promise. We are NOT ALONE!

Columbo and the Knight (1984)

put me in the universe where Columbo ran through the 1980s and had a crossover episode with Knight Rider. I think they deserved it, and I am not just saying that because they're my two favorite Old Shows. @telebeast wrote a little fanfic blurb about it and I HAD to visualize it into a comic (which is also the longest comic I have finished thus far at five pages...), so writing credit goes to them.
