Sometimes I want to turn on the main menu music of Mass Effect 1 and lie on the couch and stare at the ceiling and think of all the things could’ve been different.

It looks like they paid double the original bill, which would still be $650 worth of cookies, which is, if you’ll forgive the tautology, still $650 worth of cookies.

I feel like “To Serve Man” and “Time Enough At Last” are, unfortunately so niche now that they can’t be really be a spoiler.

One of the contributors authored a poem for, and, I believe, did some translating work for Antelope Hill Press. It is quite a nasty little locus in the ACNA ecosystem.

to backstop Calvin Robinson after he got ejected from Mere Anglicanism. The editor, Jesse Nigro, has other numerous links with some of your Hall of Ill-Fame as well. He’s hosted Thomas Achord and Darell Dow on his podcast and referred to their kinism book as “sitting on his coffee table.”

CJay was the publisher of the print version and did a couple of columns for them when they were attempting a physical magazine. Cline’s listed as a contributor and hosted the editor, Jesse Nigro, Matt Kennedy, Bethel McGrew and convicted child molester Brandon Meeks on his (Cline’s) podcast…

It goes to show, I think, that you can be an immigration restrictionist (which JR-M is) and still not engage in the kind of ethno-centric “blood and soil” imagery. Using such language is an intentional *choice*.

Fr. Isaac @isaacbradshaw.bsky.social · 23/09/2026
Others elsewhere pointed this out but both JR-M and his father, Lord R-M, have been pretty consistent on rejecting the Enoch Powell version of “Toryism,” all the way back to the Rivers of Blood speech. This is well within his wheelhouse (and I generally think JR-M should be put on a catapault).

The Demon Next Door
A growing number of charismatic Christians see themselves as waging a spiritual battle against the forces of Satan. Sometimes those forces are right across the street.

My high regard for Greenglass remains buoyed only by the belief that someone in the C-suite forced him to do this.

Saw *The Uprising* tonight, and I was shocked to see that Paul Greenglass wrote and directed it. The last 15 minutes are so ill-judged, so ill-conceived, such a ridiculously astonishing bizarre left turn that no competent writer or director would consider it.

I unironically love Prayer C, and once had a lengthy discussion with a sitting ACNA bishop in which he argued that it has the clearest narrative of redemption of any Eucharistic Prayer in Anglican liturgy, historic or current.

My favorite part of this - and by favorite I mean “Lovecraftian nightmare” - is the implication that Stalin, Hitler, Mao, Marx, ibn Laden, the Guevara twins and a bearded Richard Nixon all made it to heaven but Charlie Kirk didn’t because they’re having to leave and descend to Kirk’s level.

In my home town, which is somewhat suburban somewhat rural, there is the simultaneous demand for low taxes, low growth, and high services. When I point out these are three circles that do not intersect, I am told I am “woke.”

I had hoped getting him into a regular diocesan role -particularly out in the sticks- would tamper his enthusiasm for far-right-bro slop but it seems to have only encouraged it. Has the Holy Father considered a bishopric on a moon of Jupiter to make the point?
