@otis He's just sitting there hearing nothing but cash register sounds.

@JudgeKPGeorge :( Trevor might not agree with you ideologically, but you know him well enough to know he's a really nice person. Negative campaigning is offensive in such a tight-knit community. Sad to see it.

@dentonbible Pray for victims of child sex abuse. Pray for healing for the church's culture. Pray for justice for Tom and the elders. 🙏

Yes, you could have known. These weren't just red flags, these were alarm bells blaring. You did nothing. You recommended him to a new church. He kept abusing.

Own it. This isn't repentance, and it's not restitution

While today’s verdict is a small win for police accountability and may help heal a grieving community, the systems that allowed George to be murdered — ripping him away from his family and the communities that loved him so much — remain fully intact.

BREAKING: Derek Chauvin has been convicted of the murder of George Floyd.

For the first time in Minnesota state history, a white police officer has been held accountable for killing a Black man.

@akmcclen I can't possibly go higher. It already borders on insanity.

@kbmullen5 @otis Oh believe me, that's used as well. Getting up from my desk every 20 minutes is probably a good idea anyway, right?

The unsupported Spotify PPC app broke. We could wiggle Google Play Music into OSX 10.4.11, but YouTube Music is not gonna happen. Thankfully, we can still run Pandora from the command line! 🤓 🎶

OMG Apple Pro Speakers with Harman Kardon sub!

@otis , did you snag one of these?

@otis I'm increasing tempted to build a hackintosh out of a mini-pc and put it into this thing; I can always run sheepshaver to emulate old-school stuff. It would be a better computer no doubt with more modern apps.

@akmcclen The Book, a version of the NLT. It's great for casual reading, and it shines new light on the old, familiar, passages for me.

@austinldobbs @akmcclen @1tjleach @hannahrterry @soundiiz Here’s a playlist for you… ADVENT for AUSTIN ❤ by lonestartunes
https://t.co/XLCmWKHDVm

I have basic Spotify, so I can only Shuffle the playlist, but if you have premium you can play it the way it was built... as 9.5 hours of an advent adventure.

[lach @lach]

Y'all... I have been looking forward to playing my Advent playlist on shuffle for months. https://t.co/wSvwfzOsAR

135 tracks (I do add and remove some occasionally) from a lot of genres and artists. It's not just a bunch of "Christian" artists (or songs) either.

@austinldobbs @akmcclen @1tjleach @hannahrterry @soundiiz Looks like it'll work, it's converting now! I'll share the link in a few when it completes.

@akmcclen , @austinldobbs , @1tjleach , @hannahrterry
I'm specifically thinking of y'all since you are a source of spiritual or musical inspiration. McClendon has majorly contributed to this list singlehandedly...

[lach @lach]

Check it out, and tell me what you'd add! This year I'm especially thinking of the Magnificat; songs that express longing for justice, the lifting up of the poor, "the rich sent away empty." I'd love to hear what advent songs are bringing you life!

[lach @lach]

If you don't have a Tidal subscription, you can get a 30 day free trial to Tidal by just signing up, which gets you through advent anyway, or use my referral code for a 60-day trial:
