A love-your-neighbor kind of Christian, doing his best to not be a be-an-asshole kind of Christian. Fan of Jesus, Star Trek: Lower Decks, the Philadelphia Phillies, and Martin Luther, though not necessarily in that order.

My insurance coverage includes a thing called #SwordHealth.
It bills itself as "AI-driven physical therapy."
I've used it for a couple of sessions now, and it's, like, not terrible, but I have a whole bunch of ethical and/or environmental concerns about AI. (1/3)

So, I presume we can opt out of curriculum that teaches our children that genocidal, slave-owning, rapists were “heroes”?

I’m a Christian and a pastor and while I would never want to sugarcoat the realities of death, I would never act to hasten anyone’s death, or treat their death flippantly. And that’s just treating one another with dignity.

crazy to me a whole generation of dudes heard pete rose lie about betting on baseball, then lie about not betting on the reds as a manager, then lie about not betting as a player, then finally heard him lie about the girls he preyed on, dusted off their hands, and went "well that's that i suppose"

The US would be better off being allies with Canada than with El Salvador.
Canada has a bigger economy, a stronger military, more land—including Arctic access—a long border with the US, good values, and a history of mutually beneficial cooperation.
Sorry to get so partisan, but that's how I feel.

Since so many organizations are dancing around it, I wanted to say it directly.
Today, we celebrate Jackie Robinson because he broke a decades long color barrier. Thanks to his perseverance, and talent on the field, the door was opened for POC to play in MLB. 👏

Definitely just had to look up the date of my ordination for my reports to the bishop. Which I did by checking the metadata on the photos on my Google drive.
At least I remember my wedding anniversary date...
