Shiny new vicar in the #CofE; I love God, board / computer / roleplaying games, bad puns, being autistic, coffee, bad puns, repetition, and self-referential humour. Husband of 1, dad of 2.
So, while I agree that one is a bit dodge, others in the series are the opposite of this: they give the largest chunk to those who do the cooking or shopping, or remember everyone's birthday - exactly the kind of household chores that women are more likely to do and less likely to be thanked for.

Respectfully, I think the Vice-President of the United States using one of the biggest platforms ever to spout unChristian nonsense merits a bit more than "aw diddums". There are a lot of people who will believe him; they need to hear this nonsense called out for what it is.

"Unto us a child is born; unto us a Son is given."
And you just know my sons will be up before the crack of dawn to celebrate. Wherever you are, whatever you're doing, Happy Christmas, friends. God bless you all. #clergymaltclub

We hadn't gotten that far, thankfully! 😅

Not even a month in post and I'm already up the tower! I really do love my new church, and these bells are beautiful. Shame I couldn't get onto the roof, but I'm not going to challenge that storm!

Spotted in the West Yorkshire Archive Service the other day - don't you just wish your name was Baron F Duckham? Ok, you'd be a martyr to spoonerisms, but who wouldn't want a name like a villain from a 1980s kid's TV show!?

Aah, the bots have arrived.

Day off. We're snowed in so I'm playing hide-and-seek with my son, except he's forgotten all about me and is reading a book. This wouldn't be so bad if I weren't hidden in the wardrobe in the same room as him! I dont want to distract him from reading, but my leg is going to sleep. #DadLife #SendHelp

Good evening, Bluesky! After abortive dalliances with other apps, I'm hoping to make this my online home.

Today is my tenth day as a vicar, and I woke up to this beautiful scene. Sadly I couldn't stop and appreciate it - it's been a hectic day. But that's done now, time for cake and the Bake-Off.
