@SamanthaYanity Agreed. But without the rampant excess and fascism.

Can we all just agree not to use “roaring 20s,” since the last time we did it ended in Economic depression and the rise of global fascism? https://t.co/rQd8Spf1qb

Also, can we just agree on a moratorium on the use of that phrase for anyone who hasn’t read the original speech? Thanks.

A genuine pet peeve for me is when #Jesuit institutions use “men and women for others,” which was a call by Servant of God Pedro #Arrupe to radical #solidarity with the #crucified #christ, in fundraising materials implying that giving money is the same thing. #JustSaying https://t.co/hzVto2fx0J

Looking at #wedding cards from #hallmark and the like reveals how bad, or at least how paltry, our popular imagination is around #marriage and the #theology behind it.

Finally saw #RiseofSkywalker and, angry fanboys be damned, it was delightful and emotionally satisfying. #JustSaying

@catholickungfu A good St Patrick movie that went all in on the stories of him battling demons on tops of mountains and throwing them into lakes, turning into a deer to escape the pagan king, etc.. that’d be something

I just got cut off in traffic by the guy who taught me to drive when I was 16, in his driver’s ed car. Welcome home to Connecticut. 🤦🏻‍♂️

@BCDreyer If you look at the dialogues of Gregory the great there is an ancient precedent for this. Though Marley wouldn’t be redeemed in the robust sense, this would really be more him working out his own issues by helping Scrooge. If he’s in purgatory, then he’s already redeemed.

A kind and generous man, and a great choice. It’s been a pleasure serving with him on a committee @TorSchTheology. Prayers for him and the people of Antigonish! https://t.co/axBK7ucIC8

Has anyone talked to the @gop #Republicans about the optics of the people they have sitting behind the speakers at lectern during the #ImpeachmentDay debate? #AskingForAFriend #TrumpImpeachment

Let history record that, in registering one of the most solemn and historic votes of his political career that Rep. Scott Perry wore a tie with “ho ho ho” on it. #TrumpImpeachment

RT @ShaneClaiborne: When people hear us talk of casting the mighty from their thrones and raising the lowly... of filling the hungry with good things while sending the rich away empty... Inevitably, some will say, “That sounds like socialism.” But we will remind them... it is the Gospel of Luke.

@martyOBjr In the context of the hat from the French Revolution, the Kansas City peasants is fat more intimidating than the royals, when you think about it.
