It’s just so on brand for America that we’re still talking about a dead man who used ever fiber of his being to spew hate about marginalized communities but stop talking about school shootings after the thoughts and prayers are doled out.

Feeling joy writing theologically for a class again (after so much burnout, laziness, bsing, and resistance in my last program)! Loving the initial draft of a first week paper and also the simple act of writing it

Which honestly taking as affirmation that im at the right place and time

I am bad with life updates! But we are now out here at Princeton Theological Seminary doing the MDiv (wouldn't have predicted this 9+ years ago at Evangel lol) and settling into the rhythm of class tomorrow!

As much as im proud of STL and how it formed into ✨️this✨️, I love how i become even more of being born & raised in rural/churchy IL with how IL keeps responding & acting!

For my son’s wedding the RSVP asks, “What is a song that will get your +1 up and dancing?” My daughter asked her kids, “What’s a song that will get Dad up and dancing?”

7.5yo with a look of complete astonishment:

He’s your husband and you don’t know what song would get him up and dancing??

As a DM it feels like a combination mom friend and monkey paw

As a player socially awkward quips, church camper, and heartfelt, loyal sacrificial defender

Roman Bürki said words during his postgame comments that boil it all down for the #AllForCITY fanbase.

"That penalty was a joke."

“I'm pretty upset, as you guys can imagine, a lot of situations on the field out of our control. I think we have to get better as a league and as that goes on… but I'll focus on us for today.” - David Critchley very careful with his words post-match #allforcity

Vancouver Whitecaps were given a dubious penalty for a trip in the box. Thomas Müller scores his first MLS goal with the penalty kick

Being on, say, a crowded subway car at rush hour requires being in close proximity to people different from you in age, race, language, etc, and tolerating them as your equals as you navigate toward a shared goal (getting to work). Not the worst metaphor for a republic tbh

As someone who has lived my whole adult life in cities deemed “dangerous”—NYC, NOLA, and SF—I think a lot about how dense cities require patience, calm, and tolerance in the midst of social difference, which are of course exactly the civic virtues that the right resents being told to cultivate.

(And quote this, #ttrpysky. I want to know what's in your TTRPG library too!)

Excited to see you around in a month and hopefully stop into Trinity. I'll obviously be in the UMC/Wesleyan cohort but love to toe the waters in Episcopal/Anglican so you will see me plenty i would imagine!

What about on Friday?

Can someone explain how banning gay marriage will fund schools and lower rent and make groceries affordable?
