I follow Jesus. We exist to restore shalom. Christian Community Development. 2008 NBA Draft entrant. Torta advocate. Badger Forever. Cubs. Black Lives Matter.

Most of what you need to know about me can be inferred from the fact that my two favorite musical artists are Sufjan Stevens and Kendrick Lamar.

@Brett_A_Taylor To your credit, I note it in the paper of record frequently. so my style may be the one at fault.

I gotta admire the courage of this dude driving around with a “If you voted for Biden you owe me gas money” bumper sticker in an era of $4.39 gas.

I’d sell my car and never tell anyone.

🧵Ten questions Florida should answer before detonating the property tax system:

1. If this is real tax reform, what replaces it?

Florida built local government around property taxes because Florida has no state income tax.

You can dislike the system, but you cannot remove the load-bearing wall without explaining what keeps the roof from collapsing afterward.

Cubs need a spark, eh? It’s time to bring him home.

@TransformJax I was at church once and the pastor asked us to do this right then and there. Said, “I’m going to go stand over there for five minutes, take out your phone and text or email someone who helped you see and walk with Jesus.”

@CalebTheSpy I bought Cheeses (of Nazareth) there. A lifetime ago.

@Brett_A_Taylor (Pat Hughes voice): Well folks it’s hard to believe that Matt Murton came out of retirement a just hours ago, yet has hit three grand slams today and now comes to the plate with the bases loaded once again. He steps in. First pitch coming, it’s a drive . . . listen to this crowd!

My (newly) five year old is in her room singing Stevie Wonder’s “Happy Birthday” loud enough that it seeps through the door and echoes down the hallway.

This is a level of joy that even the Cubs can’t steal from me.

@Michael_Cerami I’m waiting for @lcm1986 to show up here with the “Where’s Poochie?” Gif

@ConnorMEwing A dialectal oddity so confined I managed to live 18 years in two locations mere miles from the Wisconsin border, yet never heard this term once until moving to Madison.

@ConnorMEwing The one that got me recently was “mmmBop” was closer to the moon landing than we are to “mmmBop”

I’m worried for the well being of this Latino grandfather here watching this YMCA soccer game. The quality of play is distressing him.

“Oh no! Why? Oh no. Where is the coach?”

Re-upping this take.

We don’t deserve Kirk Franklin.

@Brett_A_Taylor Biggest year ever for Zimmerman(n)s.

I think Posey gets in this year, then Lester in a few year and that’s all. But Dexter is in the Hall of Fame of my heart.

@DailyRandomCub Oh man, his BR rabbit trail is great. Currently a AAA manager, was in the Rich Harden trade with Donaldson, Murton, and Sean Gallagher, also BOS traded him with Rizzo to SD.

@ConnorMEwing No, it’s MAGA Lara Croft Tomb Raider on PS2.

@DSzymborski I think about the Jaguars employee who stole $22 million all the time. Especially how part of his sentence included a promise to pay the team back …. How? What’s his plan there?
