I always stumble over that new response to “The Lord be with you” though. It’s really bad UX.

Thinking seriously about going to Mass this weekend just to watch the mayhem

The best place for letting art dry off is a treadmill track.

It did not disappoint. Even a little.

I feel like we all have at least met this guy

Also important for some types of visual impairment and probably many other scenarios I'm just not thinking of.

Always back to how now that we've scrambled to get all the data and tech, we struggle *so* hard with curation.

I’d *very* much like to read the book she initially thought the prize could finance her work on, and I hope a way opens up for that to happen.

I looked up liturgical dance ribbons, and like everything else they've come a long way since John Paul II. OUT OF STOCK!

I say this with affection: If I never see another burlap banner with felt cutouts glued to it, it will be too soon.

Also: look up liturgical dancing!

Watched the first ep of The Testaments, and it:
(1) Is different from the book.
(2) (Probably) doesn't need you to have watched Handmaid's Tale.

As someone who grew up in a Vatican 2 folk-songs-and-clown-Masses progressive Catholic system, I’m pretty sure the adult converts of the 21st crave terror

DMs are fixed, woohoo!

The @barrelhouse.bsky.social Write-Ins are back, and I for one need it! Join us for "alone together online" writing sessions, gently moderated, no pressure. Alone together 500 or so words at a time we can all get there.

As someone who’s made this error countless times, thanks for giving me something to appreciate today!

Spent the evening watching Whatnot streams; no longer understand how money works

Chat window that says: Do you remember the entrepreneur club episode of Bob’s Burgers where the kids make the woodchucks and?

If we are friends I will eventually have to ask you this

With this subject matter? I *always* forget it's years.

Texting box. Whitney: O. M. G. Me: lol. FINALLY. It has been SO HARD to keep that from you

Whatever else today ends up being, it will also be the day my sister finally saw 28 Days Later: The Bone Temple.

Remember when we lived in a world where you could be successful while not being particularly effective at reading or writing? I'm getting the impression that a lot of Pepperidge Farm remembers.
