There is literally no good reason to have 9 boarding groups on a plane.

Getting a new phone and logging back into every app is a horrid experience created to perpetuate an endless cycle of tech-wealth consumerism. Granted, my grandfather fought in WW2 so I suppose I can conquer the evils of my day too.

If my elders are going to use dehumanizing language and rationalizations for the pain this administration is causing they aren't going to get any respect from me.

WOW!!! Doucoure's goal might be the best Everton has had in a long time. Go Toffees!

We are now a week into 45's second term and I just paid the most I've ever paid in my life for a cartoon of eggs ($9).

How about instead of harming immigrants and women, he uses his power to keep his promises? Oh right, that was never going to happen.

Thankful for Bishop Budde's words to the President today. His comment that her service was "not very good" shows us his heart is not open to the correction of the Spirit.

Sean Dyche SACKED by Everton! Toffees fire manager just hours before FA Cup third round tie against Peterborough after dismal run | Goal.com US Everton have sacked manager Sean Dyche ahead of their FA Cup third round tie against Peterborough on Thursday.

Dyche certainly has struggles this year, but I'm not celebrating his sacking. The guy brought us out of some dire straights over the last two seasons. The Toffees have been struggling to find momentum but I'm not sure throwing leadership into chaos right now will help

The sad truth about Zuck's video announcement is that he basically said "we don't care about things like child pornography and exploitation on our platform if it means we have to censor anyone" and that's nothing but selfishness and pure evil. Meta is going to end up like the dumpster fire X is

But I guess it's nice to know my problem isn't really with the movie adaptation but with the source material itself. On to Prisoner of Azkaban!

Direct foreknowledge of the ending. Maybe worse of all is how horribly fatphonic she is throughout this book while also LOVING boys being in girls bathrooms against the rules (something odd given her feelings towards the trans community). Anyways my feelings for the movie haven't changed either...

Chamber Of Secrets: look this movie has always been my least favorite... And so far the book is too. I've got lots of problems with it, from the pacing to the loads of pointless scenes that don't really pay off, to the fact that Rowling clearly wanted to write a mystery no one could solve without...

In 1972, 90% of all Americans claimed a Christian affiliation.

In 2022, it was 64%.

73% of Americans were white Christians.
Now, it's 47%

16% were non-white Christians.
Now, it's 17%.

All the drop in Christianity is a decline in white Christianity.

Love that the commentators on today's match basically said Everton is the best of the worst clubs in the Premier League 🀣

If the sign of a civilized society is, as is famous attributed to Market Mead; a healed femur because that shows a society that cares and helps one another heal. Then what does it say about us that we have devised an entire market around making it as hard as possible for anyone's femur to ever heal?

The Heresy of Peace A reflection on the second Sunday in Advent

An excerpt from my reflection on the second Sunday in #Advent: "Peace is a heresy against capitalism, against systemic oppression, against war, against conquest, against the logics of empire. Blessed are the heretics." open.substack.com/pub/drchaneq...

Resist evil, but love your enemies.
"Drive a spoke through the wheels of injustice" but "[Jesus's] disciples make peace by choosing to endure suffering rather than inflict it."
Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

This is hard, even unnatural. But this is the Way of Jesus.

The reason I don’t want a β€œChristian nation” isn’t because I’m against Christianity.

It’s because I’ve studied church history in depth and learned the tremendous harm caused by the church crawling into bed with the empire.

Separation of church and state is best for everyone.

McDonalds, KFC, Subway = all better in the UK.

Taco Bell = far worse in the UK.

There are still some unsoiled American institutions
