@MissalModernist Perhaps we'd need to discover the cultural and chemical equivalent to washing in Xynenian culture, and build on that.

[Dylan @DylPar252]

@Snommelp1 Yep, I've also read that. It feels like you're being efficient while you're actually doing a much worse job on everything.

[Dylan @DylPar252]

@BaptoHammer About a year into this appointment, people had stopped calling my office phone. I was thrilled.

Came to find that the Roomba had smacked into the phone jack and broke it.

@poetinbabylon This is a good angle! Hoping I remember it in three years.

[Dylan @DylPar252]

@stenersonMN I do not 😌

In all seriousness, I've mostly gotten over it as time has passed by recognizing I have to get away occasionally to function well.

It was especially hard at the beginning because it seemed like someone died every single time I left.

@lib_crusher It's called the Supreme Court and their feedback is Democrats aren't allowed to do any policy

@lcpatt What is this

[Dylan @DylPar252]

@Sharon_Kuruvila He will be Joe Manchin at best and that's fine because it's Nebraska, but it's goofy to act like he's Bob LaFollette

@blagojevism It always seems to excite people when Obama scolds black men, as a once-again-salient writer pointed out eleven years ago: https://t.co/vOGKP85zEU

@EdwardVersaii People say western Pennsylvania is the midwest but this tweet had me briefly wondering why you went to a hardware store for hot dog buns

[Dylan @DylPar252]

@riseandgrindcor I drove up to the Incline and could just barely see a pink haze. But the camera caught it way better.

[Dylan @DylPar252]

@imaginarylilguy I'd find some crazy cool stuff. I remember looking for something on the Gospels, and running across a book that had an inscription that it belonged to a (now-obscure) early 20th c. NT scholar who used to teach at my college.

@brent_waggoner If it is, Kamala has fantastic vision

[Dylan @DylPar252]

@lfickvitch Do you know how thrilling it is for me to read this and multiple replies that are like "yeah I kinda like the UMC too"

[Dylan @DylPar252]

@BethanyUA At the very least, a worship component should be there, and a meaningful emphasis on connection between the church and the broader UMC.

As for how the business piece might be rebooted... I don't honestly know.

[Dylan @DylPar252]

@helloitislivy I tried to make myself believe ashwagandha does something for me mentally, but alas I don't think it does.

Magnesium I do not *feel*, but I'm not exercising and my stress levels sure as hell aren't down, but something's dropping my blood pressure.

[Dylan @DylPar252]

@houk_linda It's very much "look at this heretic PRIESTESS" rather than "there are Christological problems in this sermon"

[Dylan @DylPar252]

@ancientspeak My therapist has never attempted to CBT me, and the more I learn about it, I suspect it's because I already do it to myself when I feel anything and that's the entire problem

[Dylan @DylPar252]

@jrbrownfield @episcopilled An amusingly radical (but of course correct!) departure from the, uh, historic attitude of the Diocese of Pittsburgh
