@jaredcwilson Accurate and I hate it, since it ought to be:
Email - No need to interrupt. Get to it in a day or so.
Text - Need to interrupt, but don't need much of your attention.
Call - Need to talk/need most of your attention now.

General rule of thumb for contacting church members:

@charlescwcooke Right. Using " 's " to make Barrett plural? Automatic loss of argument.

Insanity. Ignorant, hysterical, suicidal insanity.
Wall Street Mav@WallStreetMav
If Clarence Thomas or Samuel Alito retire in Trump’s term, keep the Federalist Society away from any decision making about their replacements. They gave us Gorsuch, Barrett, and Kavanaugh who are shaping up to be more like John Roberts than Thomas and Alito. I want Mike Lee, Ron DeSantis, and Andrew Bailey in charge of the search committee for replacements. They would make sure the most lethal, right-wing, conservative justices are picked, more conservative than even Thomas and Alito, if that’s even possible. If we replace Thomas and Alito with more Barrett’s, we’re handing the Supreme Court over to the Democrats. Trump’s first 3 picks don’t have what it takes to defend the Constitution and save the country. His next 2 (if he gets those picks) MUST. Follow: @WallStreetMav

“Is the sermon good?” asked Lucy.
“Good?” said Mr. Preacher. “Who said anything about good? Of course it’s not good. But it’s done.”

Baseball is back!
There is nothing quite like Opening Day for baseball.
A celebration of the game’s return, optimism for your favorite club regardless of what the experts may be predicting and knowing that warm weather and summer months are close behind.
Let’s play ball!

if you're watching the Yankees-Giants game on Netflix you are seeing something bizarre and disturbing--an interview with the Yankee 2B Jazz Chisholm during the inning WHILE HE'S PLAYING IN THE GAME

@TheStingisBack Men of a certain age know this is great cinema. "Flash, I love you but we only have 14 hours to save the earth" is not only great writing, it's never been topped.

Happy 80th Birthday, Timothy Dalton.
Dalton’s potty‑mouthed Prince Barin in Flash Gordon (1980) delivered the first movie swears I ever heard, and he does it beautifully. Add Ornella Muti’s Princess Aura, and yeah, this film definitely nudged me onto the right path. Freeze you bloody bastards.

@bendreyfuss One might think religious Xians should be at 100%, atheists should be at 0% and agnostics should be 50%. Nope. People want to believe in an immaterial aspect of their life. I guess atheist does not equal materialist.
I'd bet MANY of these believe their dog has a soul, too.
English
The agnostic result is the only result that actually sort of makes sense to me. They don’t know but believe in something maybe.
Shouldn’t the religious people be at 100% and the atheists be at 0%?
Ryan Burge 📊@ryanburge
I find it fascinating how huge majorities of almost every group agrees that: People have a soul or spirit in addition to their physical bodies. Even 69% of agnostics agree with that. The huge outlier are atheists. Just one-third think that they have a soul.

@whatsupchase @CarterMcNeese 1. Literal/normal interpretation of scripture, including prophecy.
2. Maintained distinction between Israel/Church.
3. Doxological purpose of history.
(Oh, and 4. Theological Liberalism.)
English
@CarterMcNeese As a DTS grad I never heard anything even close to that in any of my classes. In fact I heard the opposite in every single one.
English
This is the fruit of dispensationalism.
This is also something my very liberal OT professor might say.
It’s time to acknowledge that dispensationalism is just a form of theological liberalism masquerading as biblicism.
Keith Mathison@KMathison1967
In my first class at Dallas Seminary (1990) the OT Prof told us: "If you preach a sermon from the OT, you should be able to preach that same sermon at any local synagogue w/out anyone raising an eyebrow." That's only possible if you don't preach Jesus. Paul raised eyebrows

@scottlincicome Or, and hear me out on this (I've lived a long time with it), it's just not that bad. In fact, it's a helpful indicator of people who are, you know, fine, and those who just can't even. Plus, telling the sun who's boss twice/yr is a great flex.

Objectively correct. DST is very bad, and people who vocally support it are very bad too.

@DavidAFrench Yes. It would be uplifting even to those who are not used to seeing UK or Ben Sasse.

Please watch all of this.
Hoover Institution@HooverInst
In December 2025, former US Senator @BenSasse announced that he had been diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer. That's the primary topic for this @UncKnowledge conversation about mortality, faith, and what truly matters when time is short. Talking to host @P_M_Robinson, Sasse reflects on "redeeming the time"—holding ambition lightly, loving family more deliberately, and resisting the urge to make politics or professional success the center of life. The discussion also covers Sasse's thoughts on the failures of Congress; the dangers of a fragmented, attention-starved republic; the crisis of higher education; and the moral challenges of technological abundance. He speaks candidly and movingly about regret, forgiveness, prayer, and suffering—arguing that while death is a real enemy, it does not get the final word. Watch the full conversation on X:

@dandarling Right. And does this also include using the name of Jesus for false or empty meaning?
English
Taking God’s name in vain is both a) using his name as a curse word and b) slapping his name on things to which he is opposed.

@SonnyBunch I can't believe you'd say this on Feb. 3, the day Richie Valens died! (A Mexican-American, played by a Filipino-American.)

I feel like I’ve been pretty consistent over the years in arguing that 90% of race swap casting controversies are dumb. Dumb to get mad about Hank Azaria as Apu. Dumb to get mad about ScarJo in GHOST IN THE SHELL. And dumb to get mad about Lupita N’Yongo as Helen in THE ODYSSEY.

@SonnyBunch This line totally depends on context to know if it's part of a favorable or unfavorable review by @SonnyBunch.

National Championship.
At Indiana.
In two years.
Curt Cignetti has dramatically raised expectations for college football coaches everywhere.
Coaches will now forever hear, “Well, Cignetti did it at Indiana in two years…”
