The diocese I'm in is pretty great, but in general the Aussie Anglican Church is very disappointing.

I miss our Church! The Australian Anglican Church is Not The Same.

CHARLES RAFFERTY
The Problem with Early Warnings

People don't like to leave a party unless the house is actually on fire. Even then, if the flames are far enough away to be pretty, they'll finish their drink, take one more pass at the hors d'oeuvres.
How things happen has always been unclear. Hurricanes begin in a place where no one lives.
Agents of the government start to wear masks. Fascism is a word my neighbors won't use yet. They are following
the law, they say, and the sirens are coming for someone else.

This hit so fucking hard today.

Nonviolence is, in fact, working. This administration is weaker than it was a year ago. More and more of the public is becoming galvanized against it; its agents are being impeded.

The grimness of US history should encourage us. Yes, people used to send lynching postcards. And other people saw that, worked towards building a more just society anyway, and succeeded beyond anyone's wildest imagination. There's more work to be done. What's our excuse for choosing despair instead?

I don’t know how to focus on kitchen table issues when lawless thugs are kicking down my neighbors doors, kidnapping them from their kitchens, and using their kids as bait.

The year is 1990. I'm 10 years old. I'm watching the Democrats fail to appropriately oppose a war for oil.

I just realised I can roast the pumpkin in the air fryer which means less time for my oven to be on while it's 33 degrees.

I hated vests for years but they're really good in that "I need another layer over my core" situation.

Possibly! Or try a fleece or down vest (depending on the temp)

I mean I was just working from the couch but less excitement might’ve meant more working...
