My sermon title on Sunday was “Buckle Up Buttercup.” It wasn’t demure or cute. I said the focus scripture was basically Jesus calling us scrubs for not doing our work to pursue justice, mercy, and faith.

i just checked in with the resistance and they want you to know that calling Donald Trump "Vice-President Trump" is having a positive effect! It's trending on X along with "President Musk"! So definitely keep doing that! RESIST!

Watching the Muppets as an adult…was that really a kids show because, some of the jokes and performances

I finally found the clip of Diana Ross performing "Love Hangover" on The Muppet Show in 1980.

A reminder, for no particular reason, that the Supreme Court sat on Trump’s immunity case for *months* before issuing a ruling.
#BREAKING: Supreme Court agrees to resolve TikTok case; will hold (very) expedited argument on January 10.

The Court did *not* grant emergency relief, but deferred the requests for an injunction pending oral argument. So as of now, the law will still start producing effects on January 19:

The speed with which I go from “hm, I’m feeling a bit peckish” to “if I don’t eat something in the next three minutes, I’m going down and I’m taking everyone with me” is… alarming.

I cannot thoroughly explain enough in these limited characters how bad this could get.
I also want to say choices have consequences.

Now that a corrupt, dishonest GOP investigated January 6th and concluded Liz Cheney-not Trump-broke the law

It looks like we will soon have political prosecutions right here in the US

Because Kash Patel will absolutely use this as the predicate to arrest Cheney

And he surely won’t stop with her

Not long ago, we partnered with a production co to pitch a narrative podcast at a certain huge audio platform.

They took forever to get back to us, offered a pittance and wanted a million steps along the way. We passed.

Today we're taping our own narrative podcast.

Moral: JUST DO THE THING.

Democrats refuse to learn their lesson. Refuse to take generational change seriously. Refuse to spotlight the party’s most effective communicators.

If you send me a Tik Tok or IG post, expect it to take me 2-3 business days to respond. Because I’m going to watch what you sent me & then watch 4 to 30 additional things & forget you ever text me until you send me something else.
Rinse & repeat.

Before you ask, yes I’m being assessed for #adhd 😩

Good morning.

Let’s talk about ✨burnout✨
It happens when we feel emotionally and physically drained from doing too much for too long. Prioritising self care is key to preventing burnout. Set boundaries, be self-compassionate and do what brings you joy and comfort. REST when you need it.

No notes.
"ABC News has opened the floodgates for a newly-emboldened Trump to wage war against everyone in the media he doesn’t like. They have made the entire media ecosystem less safe, and ushered us one step closer to the very brand of illiberal democracy that Trump has threatened for so long."
