I do the two wheels down sign and then they explode in anger

(that's the sound that a Harley-Davidson motorcycle makes as it filters past you)

Indeed. It's basically at red lights and stop and go traffic that it's allowed. Once traffic is over 25 miles per hour, I have to merge back into a lane It helps lightly decongest by motorcycles not taking up as much space, and helps safety by keeping motorcyclists from getting sandwiched

Yeah pretty much everyone I see complaining on Facebook about "it shouldn't have been legalized" is complaining about something that has always been and still is illegal

And the state of Minnesota gravely neglected its legal obligation to educate the populace on the matter

And everyone should be all about lane filtering, lane splitting at 70 mph can stay in California

I should be clear, lane filtering is what is legal in Minnesota and it is a subtype of lane splitting

Lane splitting is how I prevent myself from getting sandwiched between a car and someone who was scrolling on his phone

I can't decide what my ideal stop-and-go traffic vehicle is On one hand, on my motorcycle I can lane split, which is very fun. On the other hand, stop-and-go traffic is the ideal situation for hypermiling in the Maverick

Definitely a political statement that I don't think a parish should be making because it will alienate people who might otherwise attend

It seems unclear to me whether his bishop called him back because his visa was denied, or whatever the order of operations there was

If I'm remembering correctly the Nigerian priest thing wasn't actually per se over deportation, it was that his bishop was calling him back (his visa was expiring but his bishop told him not to renew it and to return) But I agree with the sentiment overall

"You are the keeper of my heart, You are the keeper of my heart, and I'm restless, I'm restless 'til I rest in You, 'til I rest in You, I am restless, I'm restless 'il I rest in You, 'til I rest in You, oh I wanna rest in You" -St. Augustine

New Seeds of Contemplation

"And it is only when we pay no more attention to our own deeds and our own reputation and our own excellence that we are at last completely free to serve God in perfection for His own sake alone."

"When humility delivers a man from attachment to his own works and his own reputation, he discovers that perfect joy is possible only when we have completely forgotten ourselves."

"In humility is the greatest freedom. As long as you have to defend the imaginary self that you think is important, you lose your peace of heart. As soon as you compare that shadow with the shadows of other people, you lose all joy..."

"The saints are what they are, not because their sanctity makes them admirable to others, but because the gift of sanctity makes it possible for them to admire everybody else. It gives him a clarity of compassion that can find good in the most terrible criminals."

"The saints are like doctors and nurses who are better than the sick in the sense that they are healthy and possess the arts of healing them, and yet they make themselves the servants of the sick and devote their own health and their art to them.

"The saints love their sanctity not because it separates them from the rest of us and places them above us, but because, on the contrary, it brings them closer to us...

Your typical sports team doesn't really have an origin myth, they just file the paperwork and they start playing and that's that. The Minnesota Vikings, meanwhile, offer us two.

A brother priest inadvertently led my to a scriptural thought about GenAI: Let those who are naive turn in here, to those who lack sense I say, Stolen water is sweet, and bread taken secretly is pleasing!

Depends on the cities. I had a cop tell me that no-shows might happen in big cities, but in suburbs cops are expected to show to court dates and if they don't it's a job performance issue.
