a Catholic priest leading a Eucharistic procession to the ICE detention facility and getting turned away... and very publicly calling that out... this, my brother in Christ, is exactly what the church should be doing. Well done.
Chicago priest Fr. Larry Dowling describes procession to ICE facility: “No one had the courage to speak directly to us. No one from Homeland Security could stand in the presence of the Monstrance holding the Blessed Sacrament. No wonder. Evil is repelled, recoils in the presence of Christ.”

Profoundly postpartum update: Went for a blood test as part of milk donation screening. The best phlebotomist at the clinic doesn’t even look, but tosses a needle in like sanguine darts. Love her.

I've said it before & I'll say it again: actually understanding what's happening is a survival skill in the 21st Century.
Also a survival skill: holding that knowledge without being defeated by it, such that you can still function and move forward, doing good things.

Profoundly postpartum update: In the haze of cluster feedings, a particular delight is introducing the husband to “Go the F*ck to Sleep.” A classic.
