āAsked on Wednesday morning what he would say to Charles if they were to spend time together beyond the ceremony, Mamdani said: āIf I was to speak to the king separately from that, I would probably encourage him to return the Koh-i-Noor diamond.āā [cue dhol, cue elephants]

The millennial craft movement vastly improved American gastronomy and I refuse to let zoomers with no cultural memory of the bland garbage we ate and drank 20 years ago meme me into thinking it is cringe.

Catholic church buildings are supposed to be designed to show their highly-honored place in the city, which is why this one, in the United States, is designed to look like one of the US's most treasured sites: a prison.

beached a kayak on a shelly sandbar off the gulf coast this morning and looked out onto the water. To my right, an osprey mother and chicks atop a channel marker nest; ahead of us, a gentle pod of dolphins at play.

Back in 1919, the Miami Herald was running a misspelling contest where readers were invited to identify any spelling errors that might appear in the paper. The contest proved so popular with "expert spellers" that that they had to rewrite the rules. [April 25, 1919]

Everyone involved in this "discourse" is stupid; the panicked response to it and the soapboxing is pointless, the original interview was just boring, sophomoric philosophizing, the people pretending to not understand that are pretending to be idiots, and we're all stupider for being exposed to it.

Bit by bit, one translation and pamphlet at a time, we are bringing back revolutionary non-violence and libertarian-socialist-personalism (from Belgium)... Jean Van Lierde is a very useful reference point.

Forgive me my piety. I keep thinking of the IDF soldier sledgehammering Christ as exemplary of the inverting, nonviolent, and salvific power of the cross. Every blow only reifies and reinforces Christ and him crucified.

I think there's a strain of Catholic converts who are attracted to Catholicism because its formalized theology and milllenia of writings lend itself well to Debate Culture but then they eventually find out the Church is not actually interested in debating them
