I am the meddlesome priest they warned you about. I have never attended a rally alongside fascists. Not even by accident.

Fact: Harry Potter author JK Rowling stands with and celebrates men who rape women as long as those men are transphobic like her.
There are times when political leaders - even leaders I dislike - speak on behalf of the nation.
Conservative supporters tweeting bile on the Prime Minister’s tweet about the Canadian who died over the weekend ought to be ashamed for the stunning disrespect to the man who died.

In the past 24 hours I’ve learned of the deaths of two women; friends & former colleagues, both younger than me (though one by less than I’d thought). This follows news a couple of months ago of another friend & former colleague, a *much* younger man.
I feel my mortality today.

I’m sorry to lose the sense of awe @joyjmoore brought to Sermon Brainwave. OTOH, I’m so glad to have @rolfjac back. @karoline_lewis @MatthewLSkinner

Hey @StaplesCanada, just a thought:
When the line at the print centre is just about out the door, maybe adding staff is a thought. Just sayin’.

For my (non-TEC) colleagues who have to preach on Sunday, a little tidbit for reflection.
(My TEC colleagues, for some mysterious reason, have a different set of readings.)

Whenever I see a church website or social media website that refers to worshipping “in the Anglican tradition,” I immediately conclude the church is not, in fact, a part of any larger ecclesiastical body affiliated with the Anglican Communion.
I have yet to be proven wrong.

Fascinating from @abacusdataca & @DavidColetto
The Liberals are third in every region except Ontario, and behind the NDP everywhere but Ontario and Quebec.

In the #LethbridgeWest provincial by election, 35 of the 50 polling places are located in building of very conservative churches (16 LDS, 19 conservative evangelical). There is not a single poll in a Roman Catholic, Anglican or mainline Protestant church.
Curious.

‘Sing lustily and with good Courage. Beware of singing as if you were half Dead, or half a Sleep; but lift up your Voice with Strength. Be no more afraid of your Voice now, nor more ashamed of its being heard, than when you sang the songs of Satan.’
- John Wesley, 1770

My Inspire HR isn’t syncing. I did all the troubleshooting steps, then (as per) installed and reinstalled the Fitbit app, but can’t sign in. I can’t get a reset email prompt and I’ve tried every email address it could possibly be.
Is your system down?

My most controversial Advent take:
It doesn’t really matter if you use violet or blue for Advent, but having a rose candle for Advent III makes no sense at all unless you also have rose vestments.

Now that there seems to be a consensus on Cerulean Heavens rather than the Whale or the Elephant, I have created the necessary account as MDFrench.
In the fullness of time, this account is likely to go the way of all cyberflesh.

Counterpoint: These people have twice lost presidential elections to Donald Fucking Trump, the GOP enjoys a trifecta and the Supreme Court will be controlled by the hard right for the rest of the century. If Yglesias and his friends among the Democratic stategists and consults had any sense of honor and integrity, they'd take a vow of silence and retreat into a monastery to do penance for wrecking the world.
