Not Roberta Flack! 😭

I haven't worked with clay in a long while, but I remember the process of wedging. When you cut a piece of clay off the block, it is hard and not ready to be shaped. You wouldn't think it has a bunch of air bubbles in it because it looks like a solid hunk of material, but it does.

Flight delay due to flow control at DCA. The airport also has a curfew. If we don’t make it, we gotta go to Dulles. And these people lobbied for MORE flights to go in an out of that airport. And that man wants to fire many of the air traffic controllers. We live in the Twilight Zone.

Welp, Proctor, I won't see you tonight as planned. Flights getting canceled left and right. See you tomorrow, Inshallah, God-willing and the crick don't rise!

Happy Valentine's Day

REPOST if you support our federal workforce and know how dedicated they are to their jobs. Show them you appreciate them!

Well happy birthday, Saquon!

Faith isn't the absence of doubt; it's the defiance of it.

I wonder if all the hand-wringing about "why isn't anyone doing anything about this?" is due to widespread internalization of "main character energy." People unwittingly think their "something" isn't enough because it isn't THE thing.

Costco stock reach its all-time high today. Just saying... commitment to equity might not be such a liability. 🤷🏾‍♀️

Canadian MP Charlie Angus: He choked. The market started to tank, and suddenly, he said, “Oh, didn’t you guys already have a plan to deal with the border back in December? I love that—I’ll take that.” This is Mr. Art of the Deal.

I guess I'm just trying to figure out why public funds going to private religious (Christian) schools via vouchers is okay, but religious institutions that conduct refugee resettlement aren't worthy of taxpayer support.

Driving around my area, I've noticed some curious things about the T*slas on the road. A lot of owners have removed the logo from their cars wherever possible. One driver had the logo intact and a number sticker saying, "I bought it before he became a fascist a-hole."

We worked for months with USAID to build an $85,000,000 project to end TB in two regions of the Philippines. The project is funded by private money, the Philippine government, and matching USAID funds. It could provide a blueprint for eliminating TB worldwide--except it's...not happening.

FINALLY! #GRAMMYs

Canada, I promise we love you all... except Drake, apparently. #GRAMMYs

Diana Ross is timeless. #GRAMMYs

COWBOY CARTER!!!!! #GRAMMYs

DOECHIIIIIIIIIII! #GRAMMYs

In tomorrow's sermon, I'll be talking David Walker's Appeal and Defying Gravity. If you're in or near DC, I'd love to see you at Fifteenth Street Presbyterian Church.

The sky is literally falling.

My pup went to day care/grooming today. They sent him home with a neck tie. You probably need this bit of cuteness on your life.

All I can say is... we tried. 🤷🏾‍♀️

I live near the Potomac and can see the planes descending as they come up the river. Sometimes they'll even fly overhead as I'm walking the dog, which he really enjoys. It was eerie to see an empty sky this morning. This sucks.

It's way too early for conjecture, but Senator Moran said he personally lobbied AA to add this very flight to its schedule. I remember the serious and vocal objections to adding flights to DCA because of the already-crowded airspace and flight path constraints. Remembering that makes this harder.

God, in your mercy...

What in the entire hell is happening at DCA?!?!?

this is how it feels to reach 30 MILLION users!!!

Lunar New Year ushers in the Year of the Snake, a symbol of wisdom, resilience & transformation. The snake invites us to shed our old selves & embrace growth, a lesson that resonates deeply with my own journey of reclaiming my identity. @goodfaithmedia.bsky.social goodfaithmedia.org/lunar-new-ye...

Today is the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz and international Holocaust Remembrance Day. We are in grave danger of repeating this atrocity in the United States. We must protect all those at risk.

This cannot be understated.

It's my 46th birthday. It's also the 10th anniversary of my ordination. Another year of life and vocation. Yay me!(CashApp and Venmo are both "denisemonty," if you're so inclined.)

Okay, but Emilia Pérez though!
