Please follow my professional page, @theologynerd.bsky.social, for daily posts about the Beecher family as theologians, part of the research I’m doing for an upcoming book: Pen and Pulpit: The Public Theology of Harriet Beecher Stowe and the Family that Shaped Her.

I don’t understand how I’m supposed to gain followers. How are people getting thousands per day?

College and grad school transcripts should be free! I hold five degrees; it gets expensive fast, y’all. Academia spit me out because adjuncts can’t survive on 1970s pay. Even tutoring gigs can require transcripts, especially if you aren’t licensed.

A Lions/Bills Super Bowl is what the people want. I think it’ll happen.

As a third generation Lions fan, I feel both sorrow and joy. Sorrow that my dad, with whom I watched the Lions lose a lot, is gone. But I wear his Bobby Layne jersey and at least ten times per game, I say, “Dad would be losing his 🤬mind.” Pure joy.

This is our year. #grit #OGLionsfan

Dear Iron Mike,

Please. We need this.

🤘🏻

I’m at the, “my thumb hurts because I’ve been holding a hardback book for five hours” stage of my life, so that’s fun.
