Raise your hand if you’re a woman who went to graduate school and is—shockingly!—underpaid compared to your male peers…. 🙋🏻‍♀️

“Grief work is the seedbed for Advent hope.” ~ Kelley Nikondeha, The First Advent in Palestine

This is why I cannot leave this site.

See, the nice thing about often as not wearing head-to-toe black is that when you decide at 5:15 pm on Halloween that you should dress up to hand out candy to trick-or-treaters, you’re only some construction paper, bobby pins, and eyeliner away from a costume.

In case anyone is wondering, this is what happens when you let a carrot go to flower in your garden… Aren’t they just gorgeous?!? (This was an intentional experiment, btw.)

My brother & I both love to cook. I’m going to his house for Thanksgiving. When he asked if I’d thought about a menu at all, and I told him I hadn’t but would, this was his response. In case you’re wondering, this is how you make an overly responsible Enneagram 1 feel loved.

WHY IS IT SO DARK AND CAN I GO TO BED NOW?

I’d really like to know how Alaska Airlines updated this flight information 8 minutes from now.

Spent a glorious weekend in NYC where I took basically no pictures, but at least I grabbed this one through the bus window on the way home.

My autocorrect has taken to capitalizing words like Hope and Justice. Am I German without knowing it? Do I now speak only of platonic forms? What’s the deal?

Ok, friends: What’s the best novel you read in the last year (or so), and why did you love it?

Sermon crowd-sourcing: What are some euphemisms we use when people don't want to name unpleasant or taboo situations? (Example: When some southerners used to refer to the Civil War as "the recent unpleasantness")

Ok, folks: I’m spending some time with the Magnificat this Advent. Who has poems or art based on it that they recommend?

Before you book on americanair, know that if you pay for a class of service that includes seat selection but that flight is operated by a codeshare partner, the other airline can charge you for seat selection & AA will tell you there’s “absolutely nothing they can do about it.”

Belated sermon fodder question: When was a time when someone surprised you (or you surprised someone else!) by saying yes to something totally unexpectedly, or that was a long-shot of an ask?
