Cannot concentrate for shit and realise I’m trying to run 8 plus miles a day while I have a cold and just give up and rest and eat some pasta

This is a place where every day you wake up you could experience everything from the greatest comeback in NBA Finals history to a person who’s celebrating a new business that’s open.

[James Martin, SJ @JamesMartinSJ]

Pope Leo XIV: "Among these ideologies, I consider particularly insidious the one that suggests that every person must earn or justify his or her own worth, to the point of attributing greater value to those who are more efficient or effective. From this perspective, persons end up being reduced to a means of achieving results, a resource to be used and exploited, and are no longer recognized as a proper end in themselves who should never be instrumentalized. The value of persons, however, does not depend on what they achieve or produce. There are rights that apply to everyone simply by virtue of being human, and no human power can legitimately deny or arbitrarily limit them." #MagnificaHumanitas

I should have lost a gesture and a pose.
Sometimes these cogitations still amaze
The troubled midnight, and the noon 's repose.

- T. S. Eliot, "La Figlia Che Piange"

I haven't gotten around to reading this yet, but I just found myself thinking there should be a book called "Software Architectures Very Different From Ours" that takes something like standard CRUD SaaS or ecommerce or w/e and explores the more unusual ways you could build them

“If I were only interested in facts I would buy the telephone directory of Manhattan. It has four million entries, and they are all correct, but it does not illuminate.”

I mean is the irony not why half the actors are doing this

[New York Mickey @MickmickNYC]

Stepping directly onto the set of HBO's The Gilded Age in Manhattan today, and the production scale is absolutely mind-blowing. To completely transform modern New York City back to the 1880s, the crew laid down massive textured carpets over the asphalt to perfectly mimic historic stone streets. There are over 350 background actors fully dressed in period-accurate costumes, alongside dozens of real horse-drawn carriages filling the block. It is incredible to see how much physical craftsmanship goes into creating just a few moments of television magic.

Say yes to everything, shirk nothing. Don't try to lie to yourself.

[afrodite🪮 @brownsugaaaa3]

this man understood women. wow. she’s not even sexualized as she’s naked, she’s just existing as most of us do: random fondling of body parts, weird pose, stomach rolls and a messy environment. he does not attempt to make her this sexualized ideal like so much other nude art does

Here’s the essay Jason Collins wrote about his battle with glioblastoma back in December. https://t.co/2uTFa98mCl

[Duncan Reyburn @duncanreyburn]

Simone Weil being profound, as usual:

“There is something in our soul which has a far more violent repugnance for true attention than the flesh has for bodily fatigue. This something is much more closely connected with evil than is the flesh. That is why every time that we really concentrate our attention, we destroy the evil in ourselves.”

From the amazing (highly recommended) essay ‘Reflections on the Right Use of School Studies with a View to the Love of God’ in Waiting for God (1950).
