🇺🇸 This Memorial Day, we remember all those who died to give us the freedom to put an absolute madman in charge. A narcissist so devoid of honor, virtue, or even shame that he will burn the entire American experiment to the ground to fill his own pockets. May God have mercy upon this nation. 🇺🇸
Wow. Just watched “Burn After Reading” for the first time. Not knowing at all what to expect. And, um, wow, that was quite the trip! 😂
I no longer believe that Hell is eternal. But, hoo boy, I think some people are gonna be there for a loooooong time.
Honestly hadn’t heard of Gene Sharp and his work before reading Nicholas Kristoff’s “Three Well-Tested Ways to Undermine an Autocrat” column today. But now I’m interested in these 198 Methods of Nonviolent Action and what they could look like in the USA.
Survivor time! I just wish the finale wasn’t on so late. My unhinged theory is that Mitch is a crazy mastermind and has been playing everyone this entire time 😝
What’s the most off-brand thing you’ve ever done?
Nothing like a Midwest Catholic church festival!
“Spare the rod, spoil the child!”
he yells to his bruised, quiet children,
as a millstone necklace
drags him neath the waves.
It’s about time for a new daily, take-everywhere, bullet-journal-ish notebook. I’ve been partial to Leuchtturm 1917 A5 size, dotted paper, for awhile now. Any other good notebooks out there I should consider this time around? #notebook #paper 📝📓

Ordered a copy of the Ignatius Catholic Study Bible. Looks pretty good, so far. But why so few contributors overall?? You’re telling me two dudes (Scott Hahn and Curtis J. Mitch) put together like 90% of the study notes, including the entire New Testament?
Ugh, all this Library of Congress stuff has me real depressed. Getting harder to focus on work when the country just continues to fall apart.
My 6yo sniffed the air this morning. “Why isn’t it fresh like yesterday? Are there too many cars?” A few mins later, she still looked sad. “What’s wrong?” “I’m worried” “About what?” “That this is the start of the air getting sick and the earth getting sick” 🥺
Call me batshit crazy, but I think you should have to pass some kind of “basic knowledge of the US Constitution” test before you get to serve in any government role, elected or unelected. We can no longer take such knowledge for granted.
ICE is out here brutalizing and kidnapping women and children. As a society, we need to stop this Gestapo secret police shit and disband ICE.
Introducing the kids to Wishbone! 🐶📺📚
May God bless Pope Leo XIV, Bishop of Rome. May he show the church and the world Christ’s love for the poor and the powerless.
An AMERICAN Pope? In this economy???

Regarding the differences between the NRSV and the NRSV Updated Edition, I put together a side-by-side comparison of The Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7) using Logos here: joshuapsteele.com/files/Ser…
