GUYS every time we guess the date of the rapture God reschedules it. Shut up!!!! You’re messing up recess for everyone!!! 🕯️

Place your bets How long until we have a good picture of those dang little plastic amazon jesuses washed up on a shore somewhere hurting sea turtles ⚓

Yesterday my boss asked “we can do our weekly check-in in the office. Or we can bring your binoculars and we’ll do our meeting at the dove field while I count doves for the hunt this weekend. What do you say?” OBVIOUSLY we’re going to have a birding meeting with the gun dog in the sunshine. ⚓️

Just finished helping host an EPN workshop! And am reupping my obligatory plug: it's all free on YouTube! Our FULL catalog of workshops and conference keynotes, from preaching to personnel manuals, is available FOR FREE!! on YouTube! ⚓ www.youtube.com/@episcopalpa...

Alright gang (especially @ecclesiangst.bsky.social) I’m coleading a retreat rn on Mary and Martha and working on my sermon for tomorrow. Anyone here have insight on why David and Abigail are the OT reading for the Mary/martha propers? It’s just such a *specific* choice. Subverted hospitality? ⚓️

Everyone is like “where is the leftist media to compete with j o e r o g a n” as though ever person I know doesn’t have a Dropout subscription and listens to Brennan Lee Mulligan take down those “billionaire dicks” every week

I want there to be a business called "The House Doctor" that basically does what that Keshawn guy on Tiktok does with home maintenence but as a service There are so many houses in my town that are deteriorating and it's just because folks don't know how to, or do, any regular maintenence

Wild to hear an ad for DC tourism on NPR, ya know, given…things

I’m reading this book as I continue to process my very short time in the Galapagos (and to give my mental non-theological muscles a flex) This current chapter is about natural and sexual selection in evolution and how it shows up in Darwin’s finches on Daphne Major. It has me thinking about MEN 🧵

I get that South Carolina loves its pine straw in landscaping. It’s abundant. It super gives me the heebie-jeebies. Tell me this isn’t full of bugs that will jump out at me

I love doing voice to text into a Google Docs when I’m percolating on sermon thoughts and just sketched a nice cool little 200 words. But I will have to go back later and edit out the 10 times I said “bullshit.” 😆 love when lectionary serves up Ecclesiastes ⚓️

My best friend is an accountant who married an engineer. They know a ton of other married accountant-engineer pairs. I know of MANY episcopal priest-theater technical director pairs. What other common pairs are there? ⚓️

I’ve not done any “serious” birding 🐦 yet, but here’s my Finland list so far: 1. Hooded crow 2. Eurasian magpie 3. Mute Swan 4. Great Crested Grebe 5. Great Cormorant 6. Barn Swallow 7. Common Chaffinch 8. Western House-Martin #ABirdfromTheLord

Me, if I was a beauty queen

We still doing Thrilled to See you Thursday? Thrilled to see you all from the start of my vacation! ⚓️

Hey anglican bluesky - i need a podcast editor. do we know anyone with (1) a decent portfolio who edits other podcasts well (2) will do it for pay (3) will not ghost me the second i send them files ⚓

Ah yes, Finland’s third gender

Having a BRAT* summer after returning from Ecuador 😎🏝️ . . . . . . *BRAT diet: bananas, rice, applesauce, toast because my tummy hurts 🤢

Stop me if somebody said this before but… Crosstitch is just OG 8-bit art

We gotta pray for our friend, y’all. Need some real southern churchlady prayer power over here.

Gaffers tape: Delta tested, FAA approved

KONGS NOT KINGS

Feeling ministry feelings this morning but you know who isn’t? This dahlia. She’s my first ever bloom and she’s thriving.

Tell me your pet’s name with a gif

🧵📖 — “We began this week in Washington, D.C. with a sermon from Bishop Barber inspired by the lepers in ancient Israel who looked at one another in an impossible political situation and said, ‘We cannot stay here and die.’”

I grew up in a place without fireflies. They’ve returned to our yard here this year after a lot of hard work, and I tell you every single one of them is like MAGIC 🤩✨

I get why the #DailyOfficeClerb lectionary skips big sections. But then we miss such bangers as: getting snatched by the hair and balls of dung

63% of American adults had unfavorable views of Martin Luther King Jr in August 1966, per Gallup surveys 46% of Mississippi GOP voters said interracial marriage should be illegal in a 2011 PPP poll to push w/e is popular instead of trying to popularize justice is to admit you lack moral leadership

I did a rough count on Sunday, and at each of our services the (known) LGBTQ folks in the congregation made up: Early spoken - 12% Principal - 13% Evening (small) - 28% National average is around 9%. 🌈⚓️🏳️‍🌈

Back on my liturgical nail nonsense with cat eye Pentecost flames 🔥 ⚓️

Some people do MBTI. Some do enneagram My personality type is just this

Good morning Bluesky Today I’m preaching and then teaching on environmental ethics. Carrying with me the words of my immortal preaching professor: “If you have a dog, walk it proud.”

you mean to tell me all i needed to be healed was a multivitamin

The whole gangs doing Bible study this morning #DailyOfficeClerb ⚓️

I was being silly but I’ve been thinking about this all day. Imagine being in a Babylonian refugee camp, going from white collar priest & scholar to day laborer digging irrigation canals. You think the God of the temple you were taken from has abandoned you. ⚓️

GUESS WHAT DAY IT IS #DailyOfficeClerb ⚓️

I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t. Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. Share this if you're with me. www.youtube.com/watch?v=J8wM...

The #DailyOfficeClerb Lectionary today lookin at Baruch like ⚓️

We live to fight for the next day. The fight now likely shifts into a legal arena as the deadline for the city budget is extremely close (timing that is undoubtedly a political move by the general assembly/AG.)

Another full house as Columbia City Council debates repealing its ban on conversion therapy for minors by licensed providers. Columbians are here asking the city to keep the ban and protect LGBTQ youth.

The reason why medieval churchmen were so fond of bad puns was because they were Fathers.

Saying Bluesky is dying feels like saying Discord sucks just because you’re in a bad server

WIFE: What's wrong? ME: (turns over) WIFE: Talk to me. You're upset. Tell me why. ME: (big inhale) Bluesky is getting less "unique daily likers". WIFE: Oh honey. Put it out of your mind and try to get some rest. Big day for you tomorrow with the government scheduled to destroy you like a feral dog.

That Lent - Ascension bookend. 40 days in, almost 40 days out #DailyOfficeClerb ⚓️

Gearing up for a City Council fight this week and this verse from yesterday’s #DailyOfficeClerb struck me ⚓️ “Look at the rainbow, exceedingly beautiful in its brightness, and bless the one who made it.” 🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈 ‭‭ Sirach‬ ‭43‬:‭11‬ ‭CEB‬‬ www.wistv.com/2025/05/21/c... @aclusc.bsky.social

“✨🪩🌈☀️The God of peace will soon 💪😤🤬 CRUSH SATAN UNDER YOUR FEET. ✨🪩🌈☀️ The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.” ‭‭Romans‬ ‭16‬:‭20‬ ‭CEB‬‬ — More omitted #DailyOfficeClerb verses (because the lectionary doesn’t have us finish Romans right now for some reason???) ⚓️

The omitted verses from today’s #DailyOfficeClerb 👀🌶️ ⚓️ “It was right for them to suffer…for their hatred of immigrants in their midst. Some people have failed to welcome strangers who came into their midst to stay awhile…Judgment will come on those who greeted ppl who weren’t like them as enemies.”

My shirt finally came. Happy belated Thrilled to See You Thursday #MundusSineCaesaribus
