@jarsofclay album "Much Afraid" is sonic perfection. After fermenting for 20 years, it is still 1 of the best cont. Christian albums ever.

[Crystal Hurd @HurdOfficial]

@TolkienTakeaway Sure thing!

Really enjoyed the @EssentialLewis podcast series on @CSLewis and women with @DoctorHurd and @ginadalfonzo.

@WmOFlaherty LOL. The plot thickens! ;) Just reviewed a book claiming this as correct. I had to put it out there and dispel the myth.

I'm not suggesting that Hitler didn't influence Screwtape; he did. But the Hitler speech was after the sermon which inspired Screwtape.

[Crystal Hurd @HurdOfficial]

FOLKS, the Hitler speech DID NOT directly influence Screwtape. The speech was on July 19th, the famous "Screwtape sermon" was July 15th!!

Good morning!
Sleepy.
Up, but sleepy.
Urmph.

I will stay and wait for the coffee to make itself

@alas_not_me Every time I see someone haul it, I want to scream: "READ CHRISTIAN WIMAN. HE'S ACTUALLY GOOD!"

[Crystal Hurd @HurdOfficial]

@alas_not_me Have you seen it? It's hailed as a pinnacle of feminist poetry...& it's illustrated (!!!). Verses are spare & too colloquial.

[Crystal Hurd @HurdOfficial]

@alas_not_me No, #sorrynotsorry because I'm relentlessly apologetic. Everybody online loves it. I think it's unimaginative and malnourished.

[Crystal Hurd @HurdOfficial]

Don't throw vegetables, but Milk and Honey by Rupi Kaur is terrible drivel passing itself off as poetry.

There, I said it.

#Sorrynotsorry

Everything's better with @doctorstrange!
