Making the bakers bake a chocolate Guinness cake FOR NIGELLA is diabolical behavior on the part of the Bake Off producers.

I'm helping to lead my parish's first Bible study in some years using the @forwardmovement.org "Exploring the Bible" series, and it has been such a delight getting to meet with my fellow parishioners and talk about the Bible in an environment that is open to inquiry and exploration.

As we enter autumn, let this serve as your seasonal reminder that in addition to their usual cheeseburger and custard fare, Culver’s also serves a pretty good pot roast and mashed potatoes which performs adequately if you are a single person who cannot justify making an entire pot roast for oneself

We're being told that if we sacrifice the rights of some people, then the rest of us get to keep our rights. We all know that's some BS.

The 2009 television hit Glee should not be allowed to return to the airwaves for any reason, BUT, I do think we should have an annual Purge-like televised special where people do Glee-style covers of songs so society has a release valve for its “I’d love to hear the Glee version of this song” energy

Do you know how much transit you could build for 60 BILLION DOLLARS? You could build the entire Second Avenue Subway TWICE. You could double Amtrak’s budget FOR FIFTEEN YEARS. You could build Honolulu’s train system end to end FIVE TIMES. You could buy ALL 20,000 US municipalities four new buses.

As a past proud owner of a Prius C and two Honda Fits, I commend to you the Kia Niro EV/EV3 as an electric alternative. While not a hatchback in the truest sense, it is the closest thing I've found that scratches the itch for "zippy little city car that you can somehow fit an IKEA couch in."

The thing about meetings is 95% of what happens is predictable. Someone is going to make a motion, a vote is going to happen, etc. A mentor taught me this when I first became a minutes-taker—establishing a scaffolding in the doc beforehand frees you up to take clear, meaningful minutes in between!

This morning in Biddeford, Maine, a 26-year-old man said goodbye to his wife and daughter and left for work. Moments later he was dead, shot in the head by ICE agents, the second man ICE has killed in six days. ICE is killing our neighbors. ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE.

Good morning from St. Paul’s Episcopal Church, Elko, Nev. and their “there are seven sacraments of the Church and don’t you forget it” altar and windows.

A religious altar with a crucifix and candles in front of a stone wall. The altar is covered with a green and white cloth with a floral pattern. There are two wooden benches on either side of the altar. The wall behind the altar is made of stone and has a wooden arch above it. The floor is covered with a red carpet. The text "WELCOME" is written on a mat in front of the altar.

A stained glass window with three panels depicting religious symbols. The top panel shows a yellow shape above blue waves with the word "BAPTISM." The middle panel features crossed keys with the word "PENANCE." The bottom panel displays a red and blue flame with the word "CONFIRMATION." The window is set in a brick wall next to a wooden bench and a table with a white cloth.

A stained glass window with three panels depicting religious symbols. The top panel shows a red stole with the word ORDINATION below it. The middle panel features a hand with hands below it joined, and the word MATRIMONY. The bottom panel shows an urn with the word UNCTION below it. The background is blue and white. The window is set in a brick wall. There is a candle holder and an open book nearby.

As true today as it was in 1978: “I ask you to stand now with [LGBTQ+ people] and help bring in honesty and compassion and hope now. The evil again afoot in our land can only now be met by love. The dishonesty, with honesty. The slander, with responsible honor. … I ask you to stand with us all.”

the main problem with video as a format is that it's too slow at dispensing information. I can read much faster than you can talk and there's no way you can address this without becoming incomprehensible to most of the audience.
