i didn’t know that YA fiction was a thing until I was an adult. I, as a tween, learned about Ethical Non Monogamy from reading Elfquest.

Having Kash Patel as FBI Director is the American version of the King’s third and dissolute son being given command of a company of soldiers. Everyone but him realizes people *WILL* die because of his petty, corrupt, and mostly stupid leadership.

Blessed are you who watch an execution on your phone and quietly cry in the kitchen before dinner is served - yours is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you who stand in a vigil for the dead, on the coldest night of the year, your tears freezing on your face - you will be comforted.

Related: i had a complicated bird question & google wasn’t helping. I called OK Dept of Wildlife & talked to their bird guy for like…45mn! My original Q was answered really fast & then I just got to chat with an expert. ChatGPT could never. Human experts forever!

I need help id’ing types of apocalyptic stories. I’ve got “Oops, climate change is real and bad” (day after tomorrow) “Science is hard, we made monsters” (28 days later) “Wow lots is out of our control?” (war of the worlds) “Yikes total/nuclear war sucks” (fallout, mad max) What else?

There’s a closed captioning service for the business meetings at #ga2025beyond Someone just referenced ICE, but on the screen it said ISIS. Yes that feels correct

Of all the things that are hard in my life, My marriage is the *least* hard. 10 years in, still a joy, still easy, still my favorite. You know what was hard? My first marriage. That sucked because it was a bad marriage that needed to end.

I got the first COVID vaccine when I was 10 weeks pregnant. I got the second shot 4 weeks later. Once babu was born, I didn't take him *ANYWHERE* until after he had the three shot series of the COVID vaccine. He was 9 months old before he saw the inside of a store, a school, a library, etc.

Hot take, I guess, but using AI to write your sermons is cheating the congregation that hired you. I also think it does spiritual harm to both the writer and listener.

I read books again, in *this* economy. Please clap. Maroons by @adriennemareebrown.bsky.social - book 2; survivors of a plague of sadness that mostly kills back folks in detroit seem to develop magical abilities. How does trauma change us?

Rev Dr Barber is the Inaugural Prophetic Preacher-in-Residence of the newly created Office of Prophetic Witness in the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). He was just arrested as he prayed in the US Capitol Rotunda.

Friendly reminder for #clergy preaching John 12: Lazarus of Bethany did NOT die of leprosy. That's the Lazarus from Jesus' parable in Luke 16. I had to delete a whole paragraph of my sermon when I realized I'd conflated the two.

My favorite film genres: 5. Keanu Reeves interacts w/supernatural beings 4. Foreign cartoons about loss & found family 3. Goth claymation 2. Superheroes explore non-substitutionary atonement, as a treat 1. People try to survive absurd natural disasters like Wylie coyote

Hello. As you can imagine, I'm mad/sad/disgusted by just about every news item. We (the world?) deserve better. It was hard to do anything but doom-scroll. I did manage to read again this month.

Listening to some Sarah Paine lectures recently, I learned that Japan invaded mainland china b/c of the worldwide economic catastrophe set off by America imposing tariffs (Smoot–Hawley). That changed the calculus of the Chinese civil war which gave rise to Mao, etc., etc.

Remember that dem congressperson who tried to “own” the current ice raids by saying “Biden deported way more” & in no way realized that was a mask-off moment revealing est Dems to be fascist-lite hypocrites? Anyway, they’re gonna “the courts will save us” till they’re rounded up.

Just watched the Section 31 movie. That was clearly shot as a tv show and then forcibly edited into a movie. It was fine! I wanted less “suicide quad: this time it’s Star Trek” and more “tragic backstory of Emperor Georgiou”, but it was fine!

What’s it like to preach during a Trump admin?

Isaiah 6, Isaiah’s call from God: “Go & tell this people: ‘Be ever hearing, but never understanding; be ever seeing, but never perceiving.”

Aeschylus’s Agamemnon, re:Cassandra, cursed to tell the future & never be believed: “We’d heard your fame as a seer, but no one looks for seers in Argos.”

So, the gospel lection for Sunday includes Jesus proclaiming "release to the prisoners" and in America the president just pardoned/released 1500 people who tried to overthrow the government and I'm not real sure how to thread that needle.

As a woman who preaches weekly in Oklahoma, the Xian Nationalist uproar about the Bishop's sermon makes me so tired.

Imagine being such a thin-skinned whiner that you’d characterize a bishop begging the most powerful man in the world to show mercy as “lecturing”.

Weird that we have to say this, but the government doesn’t get to decide what gender a person is.
