something that's very hard for today's kids to understand:
* there were only a few major brands of chewing gum
* everyone knew all of them
* each had its own banging anthem, whose words we still know
* every one of these brands of gum fucks, to this day
These videos from the Cambridge Schola where they take random menus and announcements and set them to Anglican chant are my favorite thing right now.
I’ll just take this one thanks

that's unfortunate, because we need to obtain a priest
I've only been trying for five years or so, but I've pretty much accepted that it's not for me. The liturgical year is a curriculum; it didn't come down from Sinai.
Yep, pregnant with my first was when I went from vaguely anti-abortion to emphatically pro-choice. Nobody should suffer like that unless they're signing up for it again every single morning.
Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

I’ve always thought you were, in fact, a very good guy, but if Chotiner wanted to interview you, I would start to look askance a bit
Take me down to the Parallax city where the far moves slow and the near moves quickly

Then and now.

I’m so sorry you need to know this.
I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the bus has figured out we are not going to the right place
honestly, “this is likely a forgery” is the only thing I want to hear anyone say from the pulpit about 2 Timothy 2:12. Maybe that falls into your “nearly” exception though.
I haven't seen it yet - is it set in a queernormative AU or something?
I haven’t read everything on the list, but it looks like pretty good company!
“Nobel Peace Prize” as a tangible object (concrete) vs. an institutional designation (abstract): good moment for teaching the ubiquitous linguistic phenomenon of polysemy

Utah, really? Growing up Mormon outside of Utah, we always made common cause with Catholics, as fellow Christians who were apparently going to hell if the evangelicals got their way.
as if you would listen if we did 😂
