If the Bears win the Super Bowl, they have to go to the Vatican to meet the Pope instead of going to the White House.

the thing is that some of us knew from a very young age that we spiritually identified with the Huge Loud Glittery Pink Trees Judged As Morally Deficient By the Narrative which made this scene a tough watch 😂 sorry Linus but that’s my truth
Two little boys wandering a deserted Christmas tree lot at night. The desolation of the soul manifested.

At a country show in Chicago and they start playing "Auld Lang Syne" as the Bears win in OT the vibes are off the charts

All sports gambling is bad but you should be able to place a bet on players missing time due to medical snake oil
“The Philadelphia Phillies first baseman had his blood cleaned by an unlicensed physician” is a believable news story in 2025 and 1905

My congratulations to all Baseball Perverts. It was their "super bowl" last night and it seems they all had a very bad time (in their culture that's how you have a good time)

One of the best student projects I ever supervised was about how data science had changed sports coaching and educational training. I pushed the student to also think about how players unions might respond and we ended up in some interesting places!
Now look. Chris told me about moneyball and one of the baseball teams (I don't do baseball, maybe Oakland?). And I asked how many world series they won. He said zero. Y'all wrote all these books and movies and they didn't even win?! Weirdos.

My hockey fandom right now is rooting for the New York Rangers to be bad enough that they trade Panarin but good enough that they are still interesting in the spring

Pastoral impact should be a much more important, if not THE most important, means of evaluating theology
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

As an Episcopalian/Anglican very disappointed with our joke game. This is nowhere near as fun as Chicago Pope day

I can't wait for us all to get this excited for an album release again next month when John Darnielle drops his rock opera about the prophetic visions of a dying ship captain.

Christian 1: well, we did it. No more pagan gods. A universal faith

Christian 2: sure is buddy. The holy gospel. God's truth. Just the father, the son, and the holy spirit. Who of course proceeds from the father and from the son

Christian 1: the fuck did you just say

My primary vote to whoever gives us the most vaccines and trans rights
Health officials under JB Pritzker, who is showing how to take on Trump, are moving forward. They're exploring buying vaccines in bulk themselves.

Mass. Gov Maura Healey is in talks with multiple other states about coordinating purchasing of pediatric vaccines.
