“God knows, we feel that anyway. We feel there is no point in our efforts. There is always someone, somewhere who is better, more famous, more lauded, more prolific, who rhymes more sweetly and catches the zeitgeist better. Soon, it might be a machine. But we carry on.”

Speaker Mike Johnson @SpeakerJohnson · Jan 22 Bishop Budde hijacked the National Prayer Service to promote her radical ideology. This was an opportunity to unify the country in prayer, but she used it to sow division. Even worse, she’s continued her political crusade in media interviews. Shamefu

Do not commit the sin of empathy.
This snake is God’s enemy and yours too. She hates God and His people. You need to properly hate in response.
She is not merely deceived but is a deceiver. Your eye shall not pity. [with picture of the Episcopal Bishop of the National Cathedral--the one who spoke to Trump and Co. about kindness, thereby upsetting Maga very much]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ya7gfadgypyypiva5pboi6mi/bafkreicfh6z473xbz7djd7tozbxyfyc4aozf6zi6t33hqppumwupz6ke24@jpeg)

When they show you who they are, believe them. Christians against Christ.

Paperboats Zine is open for submissions.
Deadline for Issue 5 is 11.59pm GMT, 31 January 2025.

An illustration from An Old Man's Winter Night. A mostly black-and white wood cut of an old woman in a rocking chair, with her feet up on the open door of her old-fashioned woodstove. She has a shawl over head head that she is holding tighter around her shoulders. The eerie shape of a hand appears on the window behind her
What better way to pass a long, cold evening than to curl up by the wood stove and listen to a ghost story?
You can find Tom Dawe’s audiobook of AN OLD MAN’S WINTER NIGHT on our website.
Hello good people! ☀️
