We have a perfect Rectangular February coming up, first time we’ve had one since 2015 Maybe this is what finally closes the loop and fixes the world

It’s stuff like this that makes it wildly unclear as to why most major outlets don’t have multiple religion reporters.

I quite often hear of pundits saying, "If your pastor doesn't talk about X issue on Sunday, you should leave that church." But the truth is that if you are relying on pundits to determine your church membership, you should stop listening to those pundits.

Catherine O'Hara was pound for pound, my very favorite actress. Just a legendary comedian. Oof.

Do one of the things that makes you feel better, because if you aren't doing any of that, you will run down. Today I did some writing. I'm a writer, & if I don't write, I run down. It's very easy for me to forget this, despite decades of knowing it. And so I am here to remind you to do your things.

Same, honestly

A RULING FROM THE SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED STATES WOULD BE AWFULLY HELPFUL RIGHT ABOUT YESTERDAY

More proof that what the federal government is doing in Minnesota is not an issue of partisanship. It is not really even an issue of politics. It is a failure of morality.

Courage.

well, we've reached the point where I know (and admire) the people being arrested by ICE

This is … very bad.

Sure would be useful to have a definitive Supreme Court decision about the legality of the President's unilateral tariffs right about now. Otherwise the market is going to continue to have to parse Truth Social posts. What a way to run an economy.

Everything is terrible. Will somebody please tell Christopher Guest how much we need him to get the band back together and make another silly film?

What is the percentage of SNL sketches that Ashley Padilla *hasn’t* been in this season? 15%?

Obviously, things are tough in the USA right now--that's something both parties readily admit--but one of my favorite things about Martin Luther King, Jr. Day is that we all officially recognize a holiday which has, at its root, the conviction that social justice is worth pursuing.

This feels very important. AI is a remarkable tool, but we have unleashed it with no attention whatsoever to its pitfalls. This stuff is one example. Grok's abhorrent abuse of children is another. futurism.com/artificial-i...

sure would be nice for SCOTUS to rule on the tariff case . . .

why did so many millennials read so many newspaper comics? easily 60 percent of my reading diet in elementary/middle school was collected editions of calvin and hobbes, farside, dilbert, peanuts, doonesbury (!), foxtrot (?!?) and i know im not alone. historically unique phenomenon

if it were the Napster era a funny thing to do would be to put those Chalamet covers of Dylan songs on there labeled as the original

I never fully understood Muppet lore until AI Overview stepped in. Thanks Google!

Preached two services and a funeral, taught confirmation, and had a board meeting. That's about one more thing than I think my brain can handle in one day.

A report from the notoriously liberal rag, <checks notes> The Wall Street Journal?

I never feel like a big shot as much as I do during Costco executive hours

Think about the mindset, and the expectation of immunity, of someone who texts this to friends.

Did love Wake Up Dead Man but good grief why can’t British actors do a proper American accent? Daniel Craig’s attempt is an intentional joke as this point, right?

If you're looking for a little laughter and joy amidst all the horror, our new 2-part documentary #MelBrooks: The 99 Year Old Man! premieres on HBO and HBO Max January 22nd.

Hi. Do not have an affair, ever, for any reason. (gift link) www.nytimes.com/2026/01/07/u...

Don't watch the video. It happened. Just know that it happened. That should be outrage enough.

So the Reddit post was AI-generated and the “proof” the author tried to use to show that it was real was documents that were also AI-generated.

My friends, especially clergy friends, it is time to address the elephant in the room. In the year of our Lord 2026, there is no need to reply-all. Just stop it.

Only those whose power is less than they want to publicly admit (e.g., Herod) need defenders. God doesn’t need crusaders. God needs Christians. Crusaders defend something that is fragile. Christians trust God enough to listen, grow, and change. Crusaders need enemies. Christians need neighbors.

I fought the Monday and the Monday won.

This thread will restore at least some of your faith in humanity

Oh, you got a 3d printer for Christmas? Well, I’ve been Create-a-Carding since I was twelve years old

I always appreciate hearing from Ian Bremmer on difficult days like today.

Oof.

This Covenant Prayer is one Methodists have used since 1755. It’s one of my favorites and one I pray often as I seek to be a faithful follower of Jesus.

Happy New Year, y’all. Let’s resolve to leave this one better than we found it.

Let’s make 2026 the year we erase the song Imagine from the collective consciousness

so what do you think ChatGPT will say when ten million people ask it who they should vote for next year

A heartbreaking, beautiful meditation on life, health, and death. Rest in peace.

I am officially the parent of an actual teenager, and I feel 800 years old

As a last minute type person, this seems EXTREMELY important.

If you translate all of "Singin in the Rain" into a different language and back to English and back to a different language and back to English 60 times, it reduces to: "I am here. What happens around me happens. I continue." And it's supposedly shocking that we have over-spiritualized the Bible?

All right, I’ll watch season two of Pluribus. And I’ll think about it a lot

sean feucht accidentally left the chatgpt prompts at the end of his post lmao
