Umpire, father, church guy, payroll person, and called an ally by some of the most important people in my world. Humility is strength. Kindness is power. Love changes everything.
Happy Reformation Day. Maybe we need another 95 Thesis posted on some churches today.

On the way to work I saw an electronic billboard for No on 50 in Spanish. Let me get this straight, the party of "This is America, Speak English" and "We can racially profile you to kidnap you" is forsaking their core values to try to get votes? They'll target you for votes and arrest. nICE.

So i read all the Left Behind books when they came out. One of the"signs of the anti-Christ" was that he was going to have a head injury and then sign a peace treaty with Israel. I haven't heard that description in a while.

Galatians 3:28 says that there is neither slave or free, male or female, Greek or Jew in the church. All inequity caused by sin have been equalized as we are one in Christ. So why are we so adamant that the penalty of sin in Genesis 3 continues with inequality? Our oneness and unity overcomes sin.

I saw someone say that calling someone autistic is now offensive as they should be called Tylenol-Americans. I think my kid would prefer Acetamerican instead.

What does loving your neighbor and your enemy mean? It means wishing for them what your desire for yourself and acting to make it happen.

I was talking with a pastor and he brought up that a local farmer with migrant workers was asking if he could rent out his church for a night so the migrant workers could have a roof over their head after a long day of work. He was concerned about a couple of things:

A couple of my kids and I were talking about who would be able to survive in the Villains Code universe from the Superpowereds universe by @drewhayesnovels.bsky.social . It was an interesting discussion. The one unanimous was Titan. A good argument was made for Michael Clark. Most split: Zero.

I saw recently a bunch of posts about no one saying anything about gun control when Trump was shot. It isn't true, as Biden himself said we need to do sometime about guns after the shooting. Let no one say no one asked for something to be done with the Kirk shooting because something must be done.

I'm guessing the Cracker Barrel guy is on his way to hide the Epstein/Trump files.

Between toxic masculinity, purity culture, Christian Nationalism in America, conservative hate of the LGBTQIA+, saying that school shootings were God's judgement on accepting people, his pseudoscience stance on AIDS and the Gay community, the refusal to use inclusive language in the Bible...

Man, I wish I could fly to Pennsylvania to celebrate FIFDay 2025 in style. That should be a lot of fun. #FiveIronFrenzy

With the celebration of Jen Pawol making history behind the plate today and on the field yesterday, there are so many women who laid the steps for her to get there. Perry Barber (@umpireplb.bsky.social) broke down so walls over the years. We celebrate Jen because she stands on Perry's shoulders.

I had a friend, a fellow umpire, who passed yesterday in a motorcycle crash. As more friends pass, each one brings up memories of previous deaths, my umpire friend who passed a year ago, the husband of a coworker who died in a motorcycle crash... I don't want to forget them but remembering is hard.

Heard in the commentary leading up to prayer by a member this morning:
"I only know one person that's a they..."
Same guy made a like statement when he first preached a few months ago. Why are you always punching down instead of lifting up in love? Always a snide remark only about the LGBTQ. Sigh.

Saw this and had to laugh in a dark humor kind of way.

I remember growing up hearing that the second coming of Christ was contingent on the Church sharing the Gospel with every human on Earth. We were in control of how long we were going to be stuck on Earth. Since then, I have seen the idea that we can force Christ's return by letting chaos go wild.

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the ... States of America and to the (wannabe fascist dictatorship) For which it (cowtows) ... Nation under (A god created in our own image), (totally divided) with Liberty and Justice for (the highest bidder.)

Now that PRIDE month is done, I now declare July ACE Awareness month. One of my kids identifies as ACE so I want to know more about it, thus my wanted awareness of it. Interestingly, ACE is short for asexual, which brings into question the idea that all LGBTQIA+ is about hyper-sexualization.

So with MAGA posting everywhere that we already have a No Kings Day and it's called July 4th, did they just schedule NKD2? Thanks for the input.

I'm old enough to remember when Dr Pepper was lambasted about omitting the words, "Under God" on their drink label because they were anti-God apparently. What is sad now is that group which went ballistic is happy to omit the words, "For All" because Liberty and Justice is for whom they deem worthy.

I had someone unironically say that perhaps it is time for another Kent State when talking about the LA protests.

What!?

One of the darkest moments of our history and you want it to happen again because you don't like the fact that your idol is being questioned? Some people are too far gone.
