I have no family - have fragile network of a few Zooms, phone calls, and a local volunteer for 3 hrs TH.
Early-onset Parkinson's. Between regular anxiety, and anxiety side effect of Parkinson's meds, evenings r hard. I called church members for eve calls/Zooms. One ok w/5 mins talk Fri. B4 she pressed End, heard her say to husband, "Oh, she's having her emotional spell". I'm so ashamed of being like this. #anxiety #shame #parkinsonsdisease #chronicillness #elca #Lutheran #mnastodon #minnesota

My first finished attempt to write an #introduction:
Main interest, the last decades, has been #InfluenceOperations and #Propaganda in general, including but not limited to #disinfo and #misinformation, now facilitated by #SocialMedia.
The foundation is a life long interest in #society, #sociology, #ideology (-ies), #history, #defence in general & #environmentalism.
A #Lutheran in the cultural sence, like most from the #NordicCountries, disliking ignorance I studied #theology at university.

A #Christmas #tree is a decorated coniferous tree that is placed indoors or outdoors at Christmas time. This Christmas #custom spread from German-speaking countries all over the world. It acquired popularity beyond the #Lutheran areas of #Germany and the Baltic governorates during the second half of the 19th century, at first among the upper classes. The tree was traditionally decorated with "roses made of colored paper, apples, wafers, tinsel and sweetmeats".#weihnachten #brauch #asvent

@Zella I use the #debirdify website but it appears they are overwhelmed atm. In the meantime, post an #introduction with lots of #hashtags because normal word search does not work on here, by design.
#Lutheran #Marxism #coffee #cynicism see my pinned toot for an example.

Chad Bird is a member at my church. I haven't read his work though, but huge fan of the comfort and peace of Lutheran distinctives if you're interested in chatting. There is definitely a #Baptist -> #Lutheran pipeline, my wife traveled that same one.
What's in a name? An #introduction

Introduction! I'm Emmy, she/they. I used to be a #Lutheran #pastor, but I burned out and for my & my family's health I left ministry to become a #workfromhome #mom. I've written two #books, one on being #queerandChristian and one on #mentalhealth and faith. I run an online encyclopedia around #lgbtqia life and #Christian faith at www.queergrace.com. I co-host a weekly #podcast called #CafeteriaChristian. I'm hoping to get back into more #writing when our #baby doesn't have me so sleep deprived!

New Instance, New #introduction:
I'm a #Lutheran and a #Marxist in the tradition of #Marx, #Lenin, and #Trotsky. I'm a member of #DSA. I hold conservative #theology with #Leninist #political views. Yes it's weird, but I make it work. I enjoy #history as well. Mastodon seems cool! #TwitterRefugee
