@credenzaclear2 thinking of my favourite tweet of all time rn

David Lynch’s coolest look ever

This is our God: Jesus, King of Peace, who rejects war, whom no one can use to justify war. He does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, but rejects them, saying: “Even though you make many prayers, I will not listen: your hands are full of blood” (Is 1:15).

I am disappointed with the decision by the Israeli police to prevent the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem and the Christian Communities of the Holy Land from marking Palm Sunday at the Holy Sepulchre.    These actions further violate the longstanding status quo of Jerusalem’s Holy Sites. People of every faith in Jerusalem should be able to worship freely, fully, and without fear. I am pleased that President Herzog has contacted the Latin Patriarch of Jerusalem, His Beatitude Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa, to reaffirm this.

In Twin Peaks, David Lynch did something so genius it’s mind-blowing. In the finale, Laura Palmer says, “I’ll see you again in 25 years.” 25 years later, Twin Peaks: The Return started filming and continued the story. Television at its peak.

ranking best twins of all time: 1. twin peaks 2. cocteau twins 3. aphex twin 4. my twins (friends) 5. twin flame (as a general idea)

I once heard a woman use the word "mansplaining" incorrectly and there was literally nothing I could do.

Jude Law is short for ‘Judicial Law’

Sheryl Lee talks about Laura Palmer. [….This girl was in danger….]

For so many years people have been saying that Patrick Bateman and I look alike. Now this pic has been going all over the place. What do you think?

Martin Scorsese is actually a very Catholic filmmaker, but nobody is ready for that conversation yet

Christ said "forgive them, they know not what they do" to people who flogged his skin off of his body for several hours, placed a crown of thorns on his head, nailed him to a cross and took turns impaling him with spears. We can be charitable to people we disagree with.

“I asked Grok” and “I asked ChatGPT” well, I asked the candy-colored clown they call the ‘sandman’ who tiptoes into my room every night. And with a sprinkle of stardust he whispered, “Go to sleep, everything is alright.”

“Meanwhile, there's far too much moral clarity in The Lord of the Rings for the story to feel authentic and relatable.”

Too many people are suffering these days.

@credenzaclear2 I think the lady at the well is the best example of this. Christ listened to her, empathized with her and met her where she's at. They looked to the future, not the past He didn't beat her over the head about her 4 divorces and make sure she reaalllyy knew how RAN THROUGH she is

I just saw the much talked about film “Project Hail Mary.” It's very entertaining and uplifting and features a fine performance from Ryan Gosling. But what most intrigued me were the powerful Christian themes at play in it. The title, of course, refers to the Hail Mary pass in football, since the adventure undertaken is a fairly desperate attempt to save the planet. But it also becomes eminently clear that the reference is not just to football but to the Blessed Mother herself, for the Gosling character is undoubtedly a Christ-figure. I don't want to give away too much of the plot, but it involves a willingness to sacrifice one's life utterly in order to deliver the entire human race from disaster. It is, of course, no accident that Gosling's character is called Ryland Grace, for throughout the movie, his presence and actions constitute undeserved favor to others. A particularly intriguing character in the film is a sober German scientist who relentlessly presses Grace to make the supreme sacrifice, even when he is unwilling. She represented for me the great moral demand that presses upon us throughout our lives, continually summoning us to self-gift. A last observation: Jesus had a second in command whom he called Peter (the Rock); Ryland Grace has a very unusual sidekick whom he calls “Rocky.” I'll leave it at that. I know lots of people say that Christianity is in irreversible decline and that we are inhabiting, at least in the West, a post-Christian society. I'm not so sure. Like it or not, we remain a Christ-haunted culture—and a film like “Project Hail Mary” makes this clear.

nobody warns you about the number of movies people will simply assume you've seen

Canadian: Let's watch a movie American: Have you seen Titanic? Canadian: What's that about? American: Yes, it was. A huge one that sank.
