Evie (EH-vee) @evie@social.theliturgists.com

#introductions Hi everyone, I'm Evelyn or Evie (pronounced EH-vee, *not* like the Pokémon). LA transplant. I work full-time in college admission, I'm involved in music ministry, and I'm also a graduate student pursuing a MA in Counseling (if y'all haven't checked out Hillary's Other People's Problems podcast, you're missing out). A lot of my hair is currently pink, which has been liberating for this Enneagram 9. You can't really see it in this photo (it's a lot lighter now), but enjoy anyway.

Oh wait just realized @Lisagungor has a profile on here too. I loved your dress and divine feminine energy <3

Whoa, haven't been on here in months. Hi everyone. Wanted to jump on here to congratulate @vishnu and Lisa on a FANTASTIC final Gungor show last night. It was phenomenal.

@evie Also, desperately need to point this out: most of these dudes are married. Can we stop with the “celibacy turns people into sexual abusers!” arguments? It’s quite frankly anti-Catholic. Celibacy isn’t the problem - it’s a culture seeping in male entitlement. It’s a boy’s club. This is a problem with toxic masculinity.

Sexual abuse in Southern Baptist leadership. Any institution that protects its corrupt leadership over their victims needs to be radically reformed.

My boyfriend says that I can be a raging monster if I’m disturbed from deep sleep (i.e. I fall asleep smack in the middle of the bed and he has to move me over for room), and I never remember it in the morning. I wonder if I’m subconsciously releasing pent up rage as an #Enneagram9 when I do this 😂😂

Repost for CW.

Can we start a thread for Catholic deconstruction/reconstruction? As much common ground as I'm able to find with the Exvangelicals on here, Evangelical culture is still pretty foreign to me.

Do you still belong to a parish community? How have you coped with the abuse scandals? What have you kept and what have you discarded?

Came across this yesterday and loved it. A better way of supporting your hurting friends!

During Black History Month, we mourn the death of Trayvon Martin, who would have been 24 years old today. 11 months younger than me.

He was 17 when he was murdered.

I’m reading a book that refers to trans people as “transgenders” and it sounds wrong to me. Is that an acceptable term for referring to trans individuals as a group? It’s jarring every time I come across it so I’d like to hear directly from any trans folks out there about your preferences.
