I am at Night Gym. I forgot to bring my t shirt and shorts so I’m in a light hoodie and lounge pants. We’ll see how this goes

For the last option (Major Fasts + Principal Feasts), this array is interesting: Christmas: 96, 97, or 98 Epiphany: 72 Ash Wed: 103 and/or 51 Good Friday: 22 Easter: 118 Ascension: 47 or 93 Pentecost: 104 Trinity: 8 and/or 29 All SS: 24, 34, or 149 (RCL)

Answering @ryancagle.com ‘s question “what would you include in a selection of 7–10 Pss for a prayer book?”

Jesus performed miracles, healed the sick, preached history defining sermons, & led the best small group ever. And none. of. it. was. enough. to prevent people from rejecting him. Leaders, we cannot do what Jesus himself could not. We cannot perform well enough to keep people.

I would like for stupid people to stop making important decisions that affect my life

can we give actual people human rights first please

a musing: Catholic conceptions of the papacy in a Trinitarian form: • Father: The Pope is called the Holy Father • Son: The Pope is the Vicar of Christ in the chair of St. Peter • Spirit: The Pope's infallibility when speaking ex cathedra means the Spirit ensures the Church is preserved from error

Really appreciate Gibson highlighting this, the (imo) most unrealistic part of Conclave. Many if not most of these guys have never met and only barely know the ones they have. The factional alliances that will decide the election have yet to be forged.

The media doesn't want you to see that it's not a jail, it's slavery.

Something I love about Chinese and Korean churches is how they always give us FOOD. None of this "coffee hour" business, ACTUAL FOOD

The $5000 “baby bonus” is functionally very similar to the Earned Income Tax Credit except it doesn’t have the work requirement the GOP has insisted on for decades.

i'm stoked

today I'm 47, and I'm going to ask you to get both of us a present: preorder my book "Why Christians Should Be Leftists" and make sure I see it so I can add you to my "launch team" (I'll find some way to make that fun and worth your while) bookshop.org/p/books/why-...

Easter Day: Roll (the stone) 🪨 Ascension Day: Get high with Jesus ☁️ Pentecost: Blaze it 🔥 And who could forget Hymn 204 “Now the green blade riseth” 🌿

Realized recently that what Chotiner feasts on is the deeply-held belief among elites that it is unfair to consider them bad people for having abhorrent views. So he gets them to state their beliefs, points out that they're horrific, then lets them melt down in how-dare-yous for connecting the dots.
