#HoosierMast I’ve got a question for my native #Hoosiers. Do we think the average #Hoosier likes #Basketball or not #Jesus more?

It's #GivingTuesday and I'm raising money for #GenderNexus. They're *the* statewide trans-led organization providing services and advocacy for the #Hoosier #transgender community. Their director, Emma Vosicky, is a good friend and we're gonna need her leadership desperately in the coming years.
Donate to GenderNexus today to support a local organization providing direct service to our #Indiana #trans community.
Reflecting on our upcoming move to #Tennessee I observe that the Volunteer State are even redder than they are here in #Hoosier land. But it’s a state where we can afford to live. Meanwhile #Minnesota, which was my preferred relocation choice, was way too rich for our blood, and it’s also a pretty blue state. This appears to be a pattern. It’s interesting to me that, by and large, it’s less costly to live in red states than in blue ones. Too bad the politics are so odious.
Today's nominee for #MotherOfTheYear.

ACLU sues over new Indiana law making licenses, ID cards available only to Ukrainian immigrants... Excuse me? Did they say "white people?"
#MikePence stopped by #Indiana to let us know that he "chose the constitution over #Trump." #Hoosier folks who remember him as governor will note that he did that in typical Pence fashion - at the very last second, after all the damage had been done, and purely in order to absolve himself of responsibility so that he could rescue his own political career.
Hey #HoosierMast and #HoosierSocial
What comes to mind if you are thinking of an image that might embody #Indiana or general #Hoosier-ishness on the Fediverse?
Feel free to respond with a specific image ... or not!
Humorous and serious responses both quite welcome!

#OTD Rachel Peden, #Indiana #Writer, is born.
Her #Father was a #Fruit #Farmer, & she called him "the #Orchardist" in her #Writing.
A self-described #Hoosier #Farmwife, Rachel's #Byline was "Mrs. RFD" (for "Rural Free Delivery"). Her columns in The #Indianapolis Star & The #Muncie Evening News charmed readers with stories about #Nature & #Farm #Life.
She wrote:
"[I #Love] the #Therapy of working in [the #Garden] & my #Neighbors from the #Natural #World that I meet there."
I guess we're doing #Introduction posts - love these! I'm Kit!
I work in political advocacy - I'm a strategist and lobbyist for the ACLU of Indiana, where I also lead our LGBTQ Rights Project. Most recently my team and I led back to back fights to defend Hoosier trans kids and reproductive freedom so I am #tired.
I'm also a folksinger and a songwriter.
She/hers pronouns please!
A quick introduction from me! I am new to the world of Mastodon and migrated to a new instance this weekend--still figuring this all out.
I live in Indianapolis. I'm an attorney. I'm a mom to 4 teens, several of whom are queer. I'm an activist who co-founded a PAC (Our Choice Coalition) after Dobbs to try to get pro-choice candidates elected to state offices in Indiana.
Glad to be here!
How about let's try a pinned intro post? Here are Hashtags I tend to search for:

Always happy to see your art, pet photos and hilarious memes!
