Have signed up to a @woodbrooke.bsky.social course called Journeys in Christian Mysticism, and am working through the pre-reading before the first session on Monday. Look at this course synopsis! I'm feeling giddy with anticipation

I had four wonderful days in Amsterdam this week, and one of my main takeaways is that, wherever you are in the world, it is legally mandatory that all breakfast DJs look like this.

It’s not my place to tell LGBTQ+ Christians to give up on the Church of England and leave. But I do think they need to recognise the game they’re in and be realistic about the prospects for any meaningful change

Church of England abandons proposals for same-sex blessing ceremonies
General Synod did vote to continue to look at the issue, but bishops say there are

I'm going to make a bold statement for someone who isn't a car mechanic: I don't think this fell off your car.
Both size and the number on it make me strongly suspect this part of a plumbing compression fitting, not a standard car part. Had a plumber in recently or done some DIY with plumbing?

ngl, I’m finding this game a bit unrealistic

Well I made it to Waitrose and back without any wheels falling off, so no harm, no foul, I guess
Always reassuring to find this sort of thing on the drive next to your car

this is how cars should come from the factory... if you want to add an in-dash CD changer, that's on you

“Alas, poor Mandelson, I knew him not well”
This is the funniest headline I seen in a long time. And bravo to whoever underlined the desperation with the juxtaposed link.

I don’t know whether it’s terrible timing or perfect timing to have seen this two days before I have sinus surgery, and three hours before I see the consultant for a preop consultation. But at least I have another question to ask her, I guess 😬
Reminder that this tool was not for brain surgery but for sinus surgery, which is normally a relatively minor and safe procedure. I think some people in the QTs and replies are mistakenly thinking it was brain surgery due to the severity of the errors/outcomes, but it was just sinus surgery!
When AI was added to a tool for sinus surgery: “Cerebrospinal fluid leaked from one patient’s nose. In another… a surgeon mistakenly punctured the base of a patient’s skull. In two other cases, patients suffered strokes after a major artery was accidentally injured”

I'm not going to block *everyone* who fails to understand this, but I will if the incomprehension is personalised & expressed aggressively or obnoxiously. In short, don't be cultish! x
Getting really tired of "this is all a media concoction"...
Starmer has the lowest approval rating of any PM in history bar Truss. Senior ministers are openly and unsubtly positioning. His Chief of Staff, Director of Comms and Cab Sec have all resigned on the same day.
I mean come on...

Goodness, sounds like the Labour Party conference. Do they have composite motions? Block votes cast by ecclesiastical trades unions? I know both bodies sing at the end, and in each case it’s regarded as impolite to ask how many people believe the words
Sustained applause for ++Sarah Mullaly’s first words (“Sarah Mullaly, 001, Canterbury” - oh, the romance of Synod proceedings!) ✝️⚓️

I’d always thought the “The Iliad is better than The Odyssey” takes were some kind of edgelord oneupmanship, but no, the Iliad absolutely bangs. One of those “classics of world literature” that turns out to also be a thumping good read (with a *lot* of emphasis on the thumping)
Currently #reading The Iliad by Homer, tr. Emily Wilson. A quarter of the way in after only a couple of days (just reached Book 7) and this may already be one of my favourite books ever.

Though, since Achilles is still sitting by his ships and raging against the Greeks, in a sense it's also the world's first *in*action movie <badumm-TISH>

Musing on that bit in the Book of Jonah where the ship is sinking and the sailors are throwing everything overboard but the ship is still sinking, until they end up throwing Jonah himself overboard. Such a profound spiritual message with such a lot to tell us today.

I’ve been wondering for some days why Starmer has been allowing all the headlines to be about him personally. Looks like he may finally be having the sense to throw McSweeney to the wolves – not that it’ll achieve much at this point
