Ah, they've "discovered" Plato's grave yet again. Why did Plato's grave elude discovery? It was veiled in the cave's shadows, mocking archaeologists with an allegory of their own epistemic limits!

"The moment I stepped off the plane at Heathrow, five armed police officers were waiting. They escorted me to a private area and told me I was under arrest for three posts on X. In a country where pedophiles escape prison, where knife crime is out of control..."

May justice prevail and free speech rights be vindicated by the law.

Sending a few tweets that "give offence" to someone, somewhere, can result in five police officers on your doorstep in today's UK. These ridiculous laws need to be repealed immediately.

Almost 50% of PCs are still running Windows 10, even though support will end in a month.

John Calvin says the Imago Dei is a divine gift that enables humans to reflect God's glory, not just in rational capacity but as a visible expression of God’s character.

This is not a new idea. But I think it's still a great idea, especially for Anglican missions adjacent to or near college campuses.

Anyone remember "Ray's Pizza" in NYC? There used to be one on Prince St and one on Sixth Ave & West 11th; not sure if they were both run by the same guy, but I miss that style of pizza.

Are you an academic receiving odd messages on social media from Chinese users? A word of caution is in order.

Never "summarise the email" in an AI tool like Gemini, just read the email. I'll explain the new security threat below.

Today the Church commemorates St Augustine, Bishop of Hippo. "Behold, in order that we may love God, we have exhortation. Could we love Him, unless He first loved us? If we were slow to love, let us not be slow to love in return."

It's only a matter of time until one of these things kills a person.

Google is dramatically downsizing middle management.

Filipinos are a Yacht Rock people.

"Sanger identified the ACNA as “entirely consistent with my approach” because “they have been set up to be welcoming to a wide variety of Christians, while being firm on the fundamentals."

"...Noll neglected what over the past three decades has become impossible to miss: the utter domination of market-think on not just the minds but the souls of Americans everywhere."

Even Gen-X era nostalgia like eat-in, red plastic cup Pizza Hut would generate more customers than Cracker Barrel does today. bsky.app/profile/theb...

"Walk away from Cracker Barrel, and find some Southern comfort food at a family-owned restaurant. That’s a genuine way of supporting traditional values." via @tedgioia.bsky.social

I'm genuinely surprised at how many southerners don't know what "Cracker Barrel" means and where it comes from.

Consecration of Bishop Marc Steele for the Anglican Diocese of the Living Word

Solid take on Mary. "Assumption into glory is the destiny of all believers."

"Communion in the Book of Common Prayer is a movement of ascent, as the Lord lifts us up into the very presence of Christ." credomag.com/2025/08/sacr...

I'm afraid we're going to be seeing stories like this more and more often.

I'll probably go see the Odyssey movie by Nolan, but managing my expectations accordingly.

"...Fulke articulates the lexical and semantic underpinnings of Protestant theology with a precision and thoroughness nobody else attained."

I just saw an ad for a new voice journaling app: "Never type again. AI does it all now. Tired of spending too much time on writing and typing?" The world is rapidly becoming stupid.

"I saw a book of mine on sale at a yard sale for 35 cents and nobody was buying it and that's the fate of a good many of us writers." ~ Garrison Keillor

"What difference does it make for a church to be surrounded by the graves of the faithful departed rather than a vast asphalt parking lot? What silent theological messages may it convey?" "The more I thought on it, the more the strangeness of a church without graves struck me."

Let it be understood that I'm not a big Archbishop Ramsey guy. But this quote is 🔥

Hearing that Anthropic destroyed all these books is giving me bad Library of Alexandria vibes

As someone who used to work as a land surveyor and cartographer, I feel that the DoD not providing weather data any longer sets a terrible precedent

"I think most of us will feel somewhat appalled at this treatment of books. Clearly the development of AI is straining the US copyright regime." Via @rogerpearse.bsky.social

Overjoyed to read about this decision..."global pushback against the porn industry, perhaps the most twisted, sinister, and shameless industry on the planet" is what was necessary for SCOTUS to protect children.

John McKay's new record, "Sixes and Sevens", is superb. It's a real new wave record, and would slot in right next to his work on "The Scream" and "Join Hands" by Siouxsie and the Banshees or peak-era Joy Division and New Order. Makes sense b/c tracks were recorded between 1980 and 1989. #Music

What happens when an archaeologist spends three years "sailing more than 5,000 kilometers along known Viking trade routes in open, spare-rigged clinker boats similar to those used by the Vikings."

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive." ~ C.S. Lewis, God in the Dock

Doctor Zhivago is an epic movie but with a running time of 03:17:00 it's a hard sell for most people

Hard to believe that "the em dash is a bot tell" conversation is still going strong and being taken seriously

You guys took the bait, didn't you?

You know something's wrong with the rights system when 'De Revolutionibus' (1543) by Copernicus, a book unequivocally in the public domain, is listed as "Borrow Unavailable" 😞

"Yet Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are each the same God, the same in justice, in goodness, in greatness, and in everything that can be predicated of substance." ~ Boethius

Rowan Williams: "What the church does is not to point to itself as an example of impeccable behavior and triumph and success but to point to the faithfulness of God who won’t let go of even this very unpromising human material." via @peter-wehner.bsky.social

I'm just one of the fools trying to become wise before the clock runs out.

‪@malcolmguite.bsky.social‬: "The Feast of Pentecost has been rightly called the birthday of the church, but it could also be called the Feast of Translation. Indeed, for Andrewes, translation, in all the deepest senses of that term, goes right to the heart of the Christian gospel.

"It is necessary to believe in the Holy Ghost, that in all our weaknesses we may be strengthened, in all our infirmities we may be supported, in all our discouragements we may be comforted, in the midst of miseries we may be filled with peace and inward joy." ~ Bishop Pearson
