This season should just end lol

They simply won’t let me watch the game in peace

Damn. Liverpool scored first

Going native. Bought a fat bike.

It’s like -3° outside and I’m walking into a lake

I was thinking about my pals that seem unbothered by America’s current moment, and I’m wondering if even our varied impulses to be detached from the horror is a sign that we can’t even communicate coherently anymore.

There’s something incredibly weird about living in a different moral universe than a friend/s The disconnect on what arrests our attention and confronts us, or stirs our senses toward God, either directly conflict or have no relation. I generally expect faith to be a shared grammar, but I suppose

The prem is nuts today

Ooof

Our 2nd in a row

Only now heard Fergus Kerr OP passed away. I never took classes with him but we had coffee/tea a few times in Edinburgh. Beyond is obvious brilliance, he was a warm and uniquely funny man. Friends told me his sermons were both rich and often cheekily anti-clerical. Memory eternal!

Cannot believe I want Arsenal to win

Rusty Reno, probably: “no”

Head first into the season

Why isn’t the whole internet in dark mode?

Hate to say it but Slot out

Not super into pie. Not super into thanksgiving. But I like having days off.

Ever have an evening at AAR where folks drink whiskey, play guitar, and just sing outlaw country songs until midnight?

@catholickungfu.bsky.social help me settle a debate please: does Balthasar, following jungel, have a notion of divine freedom wherein god could theoretically choose to not be?

A person offering a long winded question for each damn presenter is a sin.

The hauntological aspects of AI are ruinous. Distrust news, distrust images, distrust videos, distrust writing… it’s an extension of the algorithmic and digital manipulation of all these things, but it arrests my attention differently, and ironically, makes me recoil from all of it.

There is definitely a connection between young converts and a conservatism aimed at specific cultural conversations. Despite this, we can also exaggerate this connection, as if American identity politics is the singular driver.

The BBC Scotland commentary for Kenny McLean’s halfway line goal is glorious. Stuff of dreams. 🔥 Congratulations #Scotland, see you at the World Cup.

A perfect album that came out the year I turned 16?

Wtf is wrong with people

Reduce highway speed, tax cars on weight and mpg, with breaks for farmers and the like re: trucks

I dare someone to make a movie that takes place before 1600 where characters wear color.

Didn’t take long

Lololol life comes at your fast

Fordian Anglicanism is weird

Wife’s out of town. Should I spend 4k for another Volvo 240gl with 200k miles?

I regret to inform you that del Toro’s Frankenstein is meh

FT beginning their defense of Donald Caesar, “Once, there was no secular.”

I measure the seasons based on how chapstick holds up in the car.

Suck it, Madrid

The Hagseth Lord’s Prayer video is so unbelievably dumb, ugly, and blasphemous that it creates a bodily response in me. I at once feel sick, that I must crush my phone, walk into traffic, and mercilessly mock the imbeciles who like it.

Friends, the gilded ballroom offers us a foretaste of heaven, where the dance of Trinitarian love will gleam in streets of gold and there will be no poor people

Tragedy

The drama of this game is insane

What the fuck is this horror

Chatting with my buddy about his MS’s index and I’m loling so hard

Open letter to JD Vance from Archbishop Atallah Hanna, Archbishop of Sebastia from the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Jerusalem. Powerful stuff. www.indcatholicnews.com/news/53533

Pretty lovely weather for the ride today

Peter Thiel fascinates me in the same way those murder podcasts fascinate white women.

My weekend is officially ruined

Something I’ve always hated about young or early career academics is how competitiveness corrodes friendships. I’ve cut people out who were once good friends because they couldn’t help but belittle mutual friends who were having academic success. I’m confronted with this anew at AAR.

Just got back from Asheville and Black Mountain area. Mostly just drank beer and mountain biked and talk around a fire. Good few days, but on Thursday it’s back to the crushing sadness of tech. Woot.

Does Gaza ceasefire come with aid and food or…

I’ve never seen a fight at AAR but I saw a guy cry from rage once about NT sexual ethics. Wonder how that guys doing
