He/him. Loves cheese, loves bread, loves coffee. A theologian who is queer, and more than relatively conscious.

Grace creates the shape of our obligations to one another. Access to resources helps us grow. Ethics is not about rules, it's about justice.
And you remove the pit from its half not by stabbing but by embedding the knife *edge* in it and twisting. Quick thock-twist move, no knife point aimed toward anything you want to keep.

And the obligation on the second day of the Festival of Thanks Giving is to consume leftovers in the form of a sandwich, such as Hillel ate when the Temple still stood. One should consume enough to become drowsy but not enough to nap.

Yeah, large or small, state or metro, the cops are so much longer-standing, and take only the orders they want to take, and tend towards malicious compliance with liberal leaders, because they know they'll get let off-leash by conservative ones to keep doing what they always do.
