Welp I have a sore throat and a bit of a cough but I was able to record my 10 min homily for my final assignment for my Old Testament class. I think for someone with no training in preaching whatsoever I didn’t do too bad.

I will vote for whoever promises to wood panel the new ballroom to look like a Knights of Columbus hall.

“Your kids should get less for Christmas than kids have in a communist China.”

Please keep going, Mr. President. Hold more rallies and say the same thing many times, it will be great for the midterms. Nothing bad can happen, it can only good happen! :)

Friends, I grew up a few miles from where the Broadview facility is now allegedly depriving people of food, water, and medical treatment. Since this falls outside my jurisdiction in Winona-Rochester, I will withhold comment. I want to talk today about the spiritual decline of Europe

Really enjoying the Seattle winter weather this week (I don’t live in Seattle, I’m about 300 miles away, we normally get snow this time of year). The grey and rain is refreshing my soul.

Real trads use papyrus. This is a lame and fake attempt to be anti-woke.

Wait, sunset is at 357 today? Oh okay cool.

Ezra Klein even like "well we can agree 'birth tourism' is a problem," and no, I cannot. My group texts are about sports and kids.

Anyone want to buy me a Christmas present? www.mitsuicoltd.com/cars/for-sal...

Reading about the council of Constance again and why did we abandon concilliarism again?

They are running the government according to the logic of right-wing grievance media. I cannot emphasize that enough. The point is to create content, and they don't see an actual difference between dunking on Sabrina Carpenter, passing legislation, and bombing other countries.

Sabrina Carpenter made the White House delete their fuck ass tweet.

Riddle me this if Jesus’ maleness is so important that priests have to be male why is his supreme act of sacrifice have a ton of feminine/maternal symbolism?

Finally my Episcopalian Old Testament class shit on Augustine and patriarchy. Promises kept. (Kidding, kidding)

Ultimate victory of the evangelical conceptions of marriage and gender. Wild that both came to similar views in response to modernity and feminism.

Wait he fired the trad church architect? lol

Love to see patriarchy put above the gospel again. Good job Vatican commission.

Our assurance as Christians is that nothing, not even death, shall separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Amen.

He’s doing something good for once

This was an actual nazi policy after the housing crisis Germany experienced during hyperinflation in the 1920-30s. They targeted Jewish people claiming they controlled real estate and spread lies that Roma and Sinti people were "invading" and people with disabilities were a burden on the taxpayer

One of the reasons people chose Trump, besides any *policy points*, is that people value politicians with *agency*. Everyone is tired of Democratic politicians permanently telling their constituents "sorry, we can't do this (but we're so smart because we can explain why we can't do it!)".

Broke: Die Hard is not a Christmas movie, it’s an action film Woke: Die Hard is set at Christmas. Christmas film Bespoke: Die Hard is about death, judgement, and deliverance from evil (and people anticipating the celebration of Christmas with an office party) and is therefore clearly an Advent movie

He remembered Greenland

TEC Diocese of Spokane is ordaining two more priests. That brings the 5 year ordination records for Spokane to: TEC: 6 RC: 1 I mused about this a while ago on Twitter.

“So then let us not sleep, as others do, but let us keep awake and be sober.” Some say it’s bad to be “woke”. But the Bible tells us to keep awake. I listen to love over tyrants, every time. ⚓️

That’s too damn bad. And an indictment on our entire political order.

Combatting poverty and hunger in this city will take every single one of us. Myself included.

Handing back student work that’s been written by ChatGPT with a 0 followed by the comment “This essay will never stand in authentic wonder before the Beauty of God’s creation.”

I think I’ve posted about this before but this article from Investigate West is very good.

Thanksgiving on Holmes Harbor

Happy Thanksgiving!

Lmao

Trump after a single meeting with someone who is not the void of charisma that is JD Vance and Stephen Miller

im SCREAMING Mamdani had less than 30 minutes with our Dear Sundowning Leader and Trump liked him SO MUCH he said “you can tell the press im Hitler its cool”

This guy can get fucked

Time to stop dilly dallying and lock in. (Gotta write like two paragraphs for a class I’m taking)

Friends, our Church believes in the preferential option for the poor: the poor ICE agent afraid of being doxxed; the poor white people concerned about Great Replacement; the poor mom-and-pop payday lenders attacked by an overbearing CFPB; the poor neo-Nazi ostracized for a Hindu good-luck charm...

The President of the United States just called for my arrest and execution. In these moments, fear is contagious, but so is courage:

Earlier this morning, President Trump threatened me and a group of service and veteran Members of Congress with arrest, trial, and death by hanging. Here’s my response:

Heard on a podcast about how hard it is for the Sun to set about 5 pm in Ohio. You kidding me??? Baby stuff…

Had a thought when I saw a McRib commercial that “wow the McRib seems really Krusty the Clown coded” before I remembered there was a whole bit in an early season where the Krusty Burger sold the Ribwhich.

If Star Trek was developed as a new franchise now given geopolitical realities star fleet would be based in Shanghai and the warp drive would have been developed outside of Ulaanbaatar not Bozeman.
