  • The families that had TV shows, podcasts, wrote books, and otherwise tried to monetize their Christianity are who are most snarked on. Sometimes they call someone a “minor fundie” if they just use IG or whatever to spread their views. The Bairds that I mentioned are Girl Defined. They wrote some books and guides on being a pure Christian teen or young adult woman, with some marriage advice sprinkled in. Now they’re married with kids and still trying to cling to what made them “famous”.

    It started mostly with Quiverful families like the Duggars, and others that couldn’t get shows despite a ton of kids like the Rodriguez family. Most of these people do not take good care of their many children, the Collins kids have a lot of hospitalizations and injuries from neglect. But there’s also people with awful misogynistic views like The Transformed Wife who are snarked on.

    I mostly was there for the wild admissions, like Bethany (Baird) Beal talking about using her husband’s toothbrush without his consent




  • That’s the wild thing. My friend has space for a community garden, and I spent a couple months after the election trying to plan out one large enough for our queer family. But no one besides her wanted to put the work in. One of the younger people said they didn’t think this presidency would be that bad. I’m in the middle of moving to a new city, but I’ve transitioned to having a wall of garden plants so I can share what little I can grow that way.

    The denial is so strong among some people
