Show your pastor, bishop, etc. the same level of trust that they show to those who come forward with accusations of abuse. Don’t just blindly follow a pulpit, collar, or mitre if they don’t demonstrate concern for the vulnerable.
On the lookout for a wheelbarrow and an extension ladder. Of course, that probably means I also need a truck… 🛻 🪜
Holy cow… I forgot about how wild and crazy political commercials are in Ohio! 📺
Trying to gather all of my thoughts on what is WRONG with Christian Nationalism. Along biblical-theological lines, I’m excited to read the forthcoming “Jesus and the Powers” by Wright & Bird. And I’m reminded of “The Way of the Dragon or the Way of the Lamb” by Goggin & Strobel. Any other book recs?
Christian Nationalism is on the rise in the USA. I sincerely hope it fails, for the good of the country and the good of the church. Give “Thickening Webs on the Christian Right” by Du Mez a read.
Trump is a threat to democracy. Just read through his “Agenda 47” nonsense. We don’t need a wannabe dictator/demagogue back in power.
My favorite cooking technique is “put some cheese on it” followed by “ok, now let that cheese burn a bit” 🧀🔥🥘

I have to install a decent amount of unit of baseboard soon and I’m dreading it
So, are the Harkonnens…Irish? #Dune #Dune2 #ThoseAccentsThough
It fascinates me that the popular meaning of “performative” (done for show, but ultimately not changing anything) means almost the opposite of what it means vis-a-vis speech act theory (a performative utterance performs/effects the act it specifies; speech that DOES something).
Just realized this morning that, for the past few days, we’ve been drinking straight decaf coffee (instead of the 50% caff I moved to for anxiety reasons) ☕️
Any lectionary nerds out there know when/why the RCL Epistle for Lent 3, Year B, is 1 Corinthians 1, while the Anglican/Episcopal Lectionary (BCP 1979, for example) goes with Romans 7?
Perhaps it’s just the ex-fundie, ex-vangelical in me, but if a Christian church’s website doesn’t even mention “God” or “Jesus,” that’s a big ol’ red flag for me.
I accidentally cut my house’s main internet cable. AMA!
I thought Irulan and Feyd-Rautha were perfectly cast, but for some reasons on I couldn’t take Walken seriously as the Emperor in Dune pt. 2. Anyone else feel the same?
My company gives us quarterly “wellness days” off. So, naturally, I’m buying some tools and going to see Dune 2 by myself 😁
Got my DUNE tickets!
