fix your hearts or die

To love anything more than God is idolatry. But loving God *entails* loving other human beings irrespective of their traits, even irrespective of their sinfulness or holiness. It also entails loving the good creation God has made, even broken and fallen though it may be. 7/

When you try to take away a monster's talent after finding out he's a monster, you are tacitly making a claim that enough talent can excuse monstrous behavior.

Just noticing that I see more people taking about the woman who was married to the rapist than the rapist himself on here. I'm just saying it's interesting.

it's going to sound gimmicky but I think that women shouldn't have to read the Gaiman piece but all men should read it to the end, just as all men should have read all the long reads about the Pelicot case, so many seem to still not realise the extent to which so many men hate and want to hurt us

sorry to be both blunt and righteous but I think this is also true of people making "funny" images of eg Trump or Musk looking silly, or doing stupid ChatGPT prompts for fun - there's no right way to use generative AI! all of it is slop destroying the planet and making horrid people more powerful!

🧂SALT🧂
The other day I wrote about the marvellous story behind road salt.
But it turns out there's even more surprises when you consider the OTHER type of salt - the kind you sprinkle on your chips.
Might seem humdrum, but, even today, it's still one of the most important substances in the world...

You do not in fact have to hand it to the tactical voters. They should be shamed for our lives not being something worthy of consideration to their vote

Horrid fear that until I actually, y’know… *delete Twitter*, Bluesky (along with Facebook and everything else I’ve ever opened a socmed account on) is doomed to be confined to the bowels of ‘when I remember to open it (never)’
