She's dropping my favorite benediction from our book of worship right there, and it couldn't be more apt.

The White House continuing to turn faith inside out in their complaints about DJT being "passed over" for the Nobel peace prize: "there will never be anyone like him who can move mountains with the sheer force of his will."

Total inverse here, where espn+ carries out of market games for cheap, but most local markets need some advanced cable tier to see (most but still not all) games.

Btw thanks for reposting @joncoutts.bsky.social and @mchlmorelli.bsky.social’s convo about LLMs. Prepping a discussion with my NT students on the topic for next week and really valuing those helping delve deep.

No doubt. I am alarmed! And honestly remembering we’re living in a time of grand falsehood (and that we’re centering an economy around such) doesn’t really lessen my alarm any. But at least it redirects my alarm, and I think more in the direction it needs to be.

I take solace that this number, like most numbers these companies put out, is definitely false.

Thankful for Calvin using all the authority he had to exhort his church (and his readers) to resist the urge to "try to cover our stinginess under the shadow of prudence."

the specific language of β€œbreak bread with” and β€œvisit him in prison” is so striking to me, used in condemnation this way

Amidst the insanity of the powerful in the world, I popped a photo of this beauty into my ppt today, and when I told my students it won the bird election they broke into applause.

Some moral experts have called it wrong for domestic abusers to claim that only they deserve peace because they do what it takes to protect their people.

It costs millions of dollars to prepare just one nearby government facility for shutdown, and this is our second time this year.

Anyway my kid’s school needs everyone to really give their all to another fundraiser to buy a few new balls for the gym.

Back to the Future II only has 57 on Metacritic, in case you need to know why people distrust the elites.

Saw this ginormous beauty of a sweet potato at the farmers’ market today and had to get it. Nearly one full dogmatics long!

If I had the power to order hundreds of generals to travel on short notice from around the world to make them hear me give a speech on the β€œsabbath ethic,” I bet people would speak to the Washington Post about it. Glowingly.

When students really do the thingβ€”when they engage their minds and work hard and delve deeply and add insights to a class and truly learnβ€”it’s just the best.

Don’t get me started again on the running commentary about the shared Hannah Montana - The Americans universe for Margo Martindale’s characters.

The 9yr old just discovered Hann Montana tonight (which I also had never seen). Nobody thinks any of my comments are funny.
But I still think her grandma’s name *should be* Helena. And 30 seconds into my first glimpse of the show, Hannah Mondoubtfire was pretty solid.

When you already have the most sterile, corporate, and least interesting distillery to visit in all of Scotland, you double down on that.

Failing as a friend of Australia in my love for cricket, but I did just spill coffee down my shirt while trying to slam a tim tam from a mug not full or wide enough to do it right. That get me back in a nation’s good graces?

Your rusty old tyranny of the expert has a lot of miles on it at this point. Can I introduce to a shiny new, tyranny of the non-expert?
