@joshuapsteele That’s a great question that I don’t have a good answer for. I’ve asked myself the same sort of thing when I’ve considered getting a tattoo, but never come up with something meaningful enough I wanted to make it permanent.
@joshuapsteele This gives me flashbacks to the WWJD bracelets I wore as a kid. 😒 😂
@ablerism Thanks!
@isaacgreene I had never read either of those before. Thanks for sharing them! “Love’s austere and lonely offices”… what a turn of phrase, and what a truth.
@sundogplanets It does when you airlock somebody!
@samthielman.com I was gonna argue that I wasn’t in your list, and then I realized I a leftie that works for a big defense contractor… 2 out of 3 is close enough I guess.
@chrishubbs.com Oh this isn’t appellate. We need a similar fix for first level courts, too.
@aaronjsmith.net Yeah I’m gonna be thinking about it for a long while.
@aaronjsmith.net I had a really interesting discussion with my therapist recently about my incessant need to self-edit as I talk, and how it might be tied up in my religious roots where expressing truth just right is of utmost importance, as is not disappointing anyone in authority. Oof.
@ronguest We’re in the same boat with my daughter. She has her top couple choices identified. Just gotta wait for Common App to open and then for early action.
@jsonbecker Yep, that about sums it up.
@aleen If you’re gonna wear them every day you better be picky about them!
@chrishubbs.com Same, brother. Same.
@lindsayfickas.bsky.social Congratulations and good on yall! My wife and I were married at 21 as well, we’re gonna hit 28 years in a couple weeks. Wouldn’t trade it for anything!
@drose Well done!
@keakealani.bsky.social We’re in violent agreement at this point. :-) I pray that the journey out can be easy for more people. Blessings on your faithful service.
@keakealani.bsky.social I hear you. And I am also thankful for people who were patient with me and helped me understand there was a bigger, better, more beautiful way to understand the scripture than my evangelical teachers had let me believe.
@keakealani.bsky.social Same. 100%.
@keakealani.bsky.social When the “weirdo evangelical sect” is something as big as, say, the SBC, and their teachers assure you that the Bible, understood properly, does in fact say that, what else are you, the good evangelical, supposed to think?
@keakealani.bsky.social Completely agree. Didn’t mean to dismiss @keakealani.bsky.social‘s assertion! Just trying to note that evangelicalism’s claims are loud and strong and the baseline view that many are coming from.
@mwerickson Wonderful book.
@drose Thats a wonderful solve for her this morning! I got close but not quite.
