Mother-in-law: Do you remember that story about the newscaster who backed over his own child with his car? Me: Oh yeah, I remember that. Mother-in-law: That was horrible. FIN.

this woman is my enemy, but not because of her restoration. for years, I’ve been searching for a monochromatic drawing of “ugly” Jesus in a crowd of ugly people. it’s a very moving piece, but I don’t remember the title or artist and because of her, the only “ugly” Jesus I find on Google is this!

We think of him as safe beneath the steeple, Or cosy in a crib beside the font, But he is with a million displaced people On the long road of weariness and want. malcolmguite.wordpress.com/2025/12/28/t...

how today feels

Losing two mentors in one weekend is more than my heart can bear. I don't know another way through the grief other than to write about it. Dan Treier, you made the world a much better place. We'll miss you terribly. open.substack.com/pub/carmenjo...
