The book is all the way out! There's lots of places to buy it online--including this link, Bookshop .org, B&N, and other online big booksellers. https://t.co/15ECabWpLJ
A priest, a pastor and a rabbit entered a clinic to donate blood. The nurse asked the rabbit: “what’s your blood type?”
“I’m probably a type O”, said the rabbit.
There’s been a resurgence of attention for Fleetwood Mac’s Silver Springs, and after watching a 15 minute video about the background story and watching the famous ‘97 performance 20 times tonight, I’m happy to report that I will continue watching it daily for the rest of my life.
Ending the day after seeing #BarbieTheMovie by staring at the wall, listening to Brandi and Catherine’s Barbie cover of Closer to Fine, and wondering what I was made for. If both hits this weekend invite us to think of our place in the world, I recommend the pink one.
I cried so hard introducing babe to @brandicarlile via the Max special. When Brandi says, “All the wonders I have seen I will see a second time from inside the ages through your eyes,” I don’t think she realized I consider her to be one of the aforementioned wonders. 🥰😭🥰
I was in my early 20s when it came out though. I really feel for the youngins who loved it when it came out who, upon re-listening this week, are devastated to realize that they have, in fact, grown up.
I forgot how fun Speak Now is. It encapsulates the high emotions of late teen years. The giggle in Speak Now, the guitar parts in Dear John… all delightful. Seven is my fave Taylor song, but Speak Now has to be my Taylor album.
And that’s a wrap on #uccsynod. Soon I’ll try to set Twitter back down, but it was a helpful way to stay connected during the times I had to stream from hotel with baby. Anyone else leaving with a commitment? I’m going to learn more about colonial history of Hawaii.
Thankful for Rev. Dr. Karen Georgia Thompson, and I can’t wait to celebrate her installation tonight during worship. She must be *exhausted* wearing as many hats as she is this week, so I pray for rest to come her way soon! #uccsynod
@revfemme In my head, too! There’s a golden girls board book I’ve been reading to E, and in it, Ma tells the girls a bedtime story starting the same way. 😂
Picture this: education made available early. Viewing rooms available at #UCCSynod to catch up if you couldn’t watch early. Committee work 1st then resolutions spread over 3 days. Keynotes addressing cool church things like 5th Stream instead of xian celebrity. Chaplain on stage.
#UCCSynod Like budgets, schedules are moral documents. This sense of urgency to close discussion & move on with business is a direct result of the choices we make in scheduling and prioritizing process & expediency. May we find new ways to prioritize spirit and witness
Look how many people abstained from that vote—presumably feeling like they don’t know enough of Hawaiian history, culture, and current politics to vote in good conscience. #UCCSynod
One way we could reassess the format of Synod is through expanding access to educational intensives before we gather to vote. Once we get here, delegates only have time to attend one single intensive, even though they vote on all resolutions. #uccsynod
