Look, we've all been there. You start off with a simple research question - "Why do so many all-female alliances fail on #Survivor?" - and then accidentally create an 85-minute documentary on the global history of women's alliances. We've all made one. Here's mine: www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2oN...

this is the best review of project hail mary lol

Wrote for @christianitytoday.com about the great work Housing for New Hope is doing to help the homeless population in my city of Durham: www.christianitytoday.com/2026/03/mira...

Really loved this column from @drmoore.bsky.social www.christianitytoday.com/2026/02/jeff...

Yup! I think, psychoanalyzing my own hatred of AI, that a lot of it stems from an intuition that what people want out of AI (affirmation, therapy, instant gratification) is what they increasingly want (or are being trained to want) out of art and culture bsky.app/profile/alis...

going to the prayer breakfast to complain about people who pray while eating

reading each post, taking a long breath, and repeating "i just don't think this needs to involve me"

Going to end on one of the most beautiful commercials ever made with the reminder and a call to remember the small things. They make a big difference to others. Love all, help all. Go Jackets.

I love this take. I'm sure there are holes in this that smarter people could identify, but to me, if you are chasing a purely *Christian* political worldview, this feels like the really natural endpoint (credit @sojo.net @tylerhuckabee.bsky.social) sojo.net/articles/opi...

I like how the news will be like “while the President claiming Portland was ruled by a giant skeleton named Mr Nibbles is not strictly true, it does speak to the anxiety of many Americans”

An actual hot take: Too many authors are afraid of editors watering down their voice or whatever and not afraid enough of editors letting you put any old slop on the page.

thinking once again of jon foreman’s answer when someone asked him if switchfoot is a christian band

I've spent a lot of time thinking about this fascinating exchange Colbert had with Dua Lipa, when she asked him about the role his faith plays in his comedy.

Another reason why I continue to become the biggest AI hater

I wrote about how Brad Pitt has effectively albeit transparently used F1: The Movie and its press tour to rehabilitate his image, in order to obscure the violent allegations about abuse toward Angelina Jolie & his current estrangement from his six kids, @vulture.com. www.vulture.com/article/brad...

It is actually so pleasurable and INVOLVING to fill in the blanks and use your imagination as a viewer. It binds you to the material, makes you invested. and there are fewer and fewer mainstream entertainments that give you room to do that

This is also why people got obsessive over GOT I think. And why ANDOR feels like such good Star Wars. But 99% of exec notes ESPECIALLY for world buildy stuff demand that everything be airtight, explained, bulletproof before a greenlight is even a whisp of a percentage of a possibility

There's something profoundly sad about some Christians, esp. clergy, saying "IF Jesus were here…" or "Jesus WOULD..." My point isn't a semantic gotcha, but that we Christians have to talk about Jesus like He's actually alive (because He is!) and not just a Good Moral Example locked in the past.

someone get Dan Campbell a wider monitor

Same energy

It is simply a real mistake to let the evil heartless people in the world cause you to become more evil and heartless

chat, is there anything in christianity about forgiving the people who killed your son

If you need an indicator how brilliant this season of #SurvivorAU has been, the person on the bottom watched the rest of his tribe throw the challenge to hunt for an idol, angrily walked over, found the idol himself, and called them pricks 😂

[willem dafoe unprompted] now, this cookie monster. [toothy smile] what a creature, what a lust. it consumes him. [crosses legs] he’s really a tragic figure.

this year's oscar race is a real B+ movie knife fight huh

The conversation in this week’s #Severance about the Lutheran church’s take on a particular science-fiction scenario?! Maybe my favorite minor piece of worldbuilding in any media this decade 🤯

There's a Crisis of Masculinity in this country and the only way to solve it is to let me act like a cross between a baby and a movie villain

the buccaneers are one team i would not want to play in the postseason. i'm not in football shape, i don't have anywhere near the skill set that would be necessary, i don't belong to a team, and i would have to play them by myself. under no circumstances would i be interested in that matchup

Mister Rogers never misses

tfw u learn about all the doctrines of grace:

Spending Thanksgiving in South America this year, watching Dolphins/Packers game with all-Spanish commentary, and it’s bringing me great joy to hear a long string of extremely fast Spanish suddenly interjected with “Malik Washington” and “Josh Jacobs”

40 minutes past the showtime and the movie theater is still showing trailers. The crowd burst into loud laughter when the last green “This trailer is approved for all audiences” showed up. Might be a better show than the movie at this point.

ok the Reacher guy keeps it real as hell

my prediction for what will triumph at the oscars: the human spirit
