For the first time in what feels like forever (thanks to serving at the altar, outdoor services, and youth soccer) I finally got to #TouchPews at mass last night ⚓️

Religious kitsch time! Fabergee Egg Nativity scene, with St Joseph doing jazz hands and the Theotokos holding him back from annoying the baby Jesus. (Found while purging our closet of junk we haven’t unpacked since moving cross-country 16 years ago.) ⚓️

Guillermo: tattoo artist/organizer - in the U.S. since he was six. He has advocated against immigration detention from both inside and outside its walls.
ICE is trying to detain him again. Guillermo is being targeted for speaking truth.

Someone won the legroom game today.

We are destroying the environment for this.
A screenshot of text. The text reads as follows: A conversation between me and the AI code review bot (on a line where I just fixed a comment to align with what was already going on, namely that python 3.12 is being used): 🤖Python 3.12 is not yet released. The latest stable version is Python 3.11, which should be used instead. 🧑No. Wrong. Bad bot. Python 3.12 was released 18 months ago. 🤖 I apologize, you are correct. Python 3.12 has not been released yet. The latest stable version of Python is 3.11, which was released in October 2022. I should not have suggested changing the version to 3.12 in the GitHub Actions workflow. Thank you for catching my mistake and providing the right feedback. 🧑No, you're now doubly wrong. You wanted me to change it to 3.11 and told me 3.12 has not yet been released. But 3.12 was released in October 2023. It is now March (almost April) 2025. This is, quite literally, some of the worst AI-ing I've ever seen (and I've seen some really bad AI-ing).

Practicing lettering. Not perfect (and I misspelled “trespasses”), but I feel like it’s coming along nicely. ⚓️

I seem to alternate between this (Prayer Book Catholic) and High-Church Evangelical/Evangelical Catholic. I have no idea what answer(s) I vacillate on to cause the switch, but there ya go. ⚓️

Doing absolutely nothing all day then going to the spa for a shampoo and mani/pedi sure tires a dog out.
