Judas as rudderless follower, never thought of it that way. Again deep irony at work - mad that Jesus was being extravagant and kingly, he goes to the earthly power structure. John's version (per other comments) negates that - by then had these other narratives re Judas' motives come about?

Ironic then that Judas seeks payment for the betrayal - or rather in this translation he seeks *something* ("what will you give me") and he accepts money. But what would they have given him other than money?

I was just telling my kid this as we tried to digest the news about Hegseth's federal snuff film. I told him it was something one's friend's older brothers spoke of in hushed tones

Just abominable that people fall for this line of his. You're *right there* and can see that he is not "working." He is yammering and being the center of attention and *complaining about being in your town specifically.* he likes doing those things and they are not in any sense "work." Gaah

Paul Dooley as Claude Elsinore in Strange Brew (1982), wearing a grey suit, white shirt, red tie, and red pocket square. He looks uneasy as he testifies: "Just because I don't know what it is doesn't mean I'm lying."

I was watching the 2006 Cubs-Reds season opener. He threw it high and outside but it was still good enough for the Reds to slot him in as their 4th starter

The front of a grey Transdev bus with a bright red fender. Atop the front window there is a black message board with orange lettering that, instead of stating the bus's destination, says "NO? ?? ???????"

Although my favorite gag about that, can't remember where I saw it years ago, was "remember when Z yelled at his manager on the mound for taking him out in the 3rd, then continued yelling at him in the dugout and ultimately bloodied his nose?...no, you don't. That was Ted Lilly."

Excerpt from Jeff Passan article from the Seattle Times, July 5, 2005: Before Kenny Rogers was suspended 20 games for being an idiot, he was simply stupid.

Overshadowed by Rogers’ attack of two cameramen — and, perhaps, the cause of his outburst — was his decision to punch a water cooler June 17. Rogers broke a bone in his right hand, which actually prompted some to laud him for not taking out his frustration with his pitching hand. What a saint.

So interesting that Robert Plant chose that one to cover, yet another weirdly relatable thing about him. Tho my favorite is "All Come to Meet Her".

I am a gen X parent of gen Z kids who all have friends and lives and moral compasses and we all did and are doing our fuckin best ok? I know: "on average." But I can't see how that's remotely correct or even knowable either.

They asked him about ABS and he said he was a fan. "We never had that...we may have gotten some out of the zone." He wasn't on camera but you could hear him winking.
