The name says it all... a humble academic bureaucrat from a seminary in Tennessee.

@BrooksCato There’s a certain freedom in knowing that you’re completely screwed. (90s movie quote or ECUSA prophecy?)

@Msahdev @ElizaYoda Practice dating back to Ed Browning’s days as PB was to limit to one academic liturgiologist.
SLC that led 79 revision was loaded with them.

@Lin_Manuel I should be grateful: at least Legos don’t talk back...

On this day in 1743, Thomas Jefferson made his grand entrance! If you don’t know, now you know.

[DeanofSnark @DeanOfSnark]

Today in history (1743; Gregorian calendar date): Thomas Jefferson was born. Or, as my little boy put it, @jamesmiglehart’s current role was created!

@word_made_FRESH I think, technically, that your STM makes you a Grand Master.

Just look at this & understand that the public school teachers of #OklahomaTeacherWalkout aren't just walking out for their own bank accounts. They are doing it for the kids. 👇🏿 https://t.co/Hkjdxssed1

NoMoore! I can now unpack the U-Haul and scrap my plans for an escape north of the Mason-Dixon. At least until the next time the neighbors nominate a pathological fascist for statewide office. Like, next summer.

@scottagunn If we simply required, as penance, those who use the title to read the papal decree aloud in church, it might make this problem go away for good...

Attn former students: get thee to @tanehisicoates for better history lesson in 140 characters than I could give in 1400 pages. Go NOW. https://t.co/1TWRdJl6Ph

@FatherTim Some priests go on pilgrimage to Jerusalem. Others walk el Camino de Santiago. Fr. Tim goes on a coffee pilgrimage to Colombia. Love it!

GOT crew plans show based on alternative history in which Confederacy won. AKA "what my creepy neighbors think actually happened" #LifeinTN

Can't figure out if we are being led by a psychopath, a sociopath, or a dementia case... or if it makes a difference. #wheresmyDSM5

@ChurchSnob Don't stop believing, @ChurchSnob ...

I've always wanted oceanfront property. Just wasn't planning on it in Tennessee. https://t.co/D1hI3mEsyf

Massive ice sheet breaks free from Antarctica. Is today's soundtrack R.E.M. "End of the World as We Know It," or the requiem's "Dies Irae"?

[DeanofSnark @DeanOfSnark]

@scottagunn It was actually by the right side of the temple, no less. Can't make this sewage up.

[DeanofSnark @DeanOfSnark]

Sewer line by chapel ruptures. Church music prof and I consider use of "Vidi Aquam." This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

Watching Natalie Portman and Liam Neeson scowl through scene after scene. Probably wondering what the heck they are doing in this movie.
