Sports people: I just got into “big” sports with Nashville SC. Other than going to a bar, is there a free/inexpensive way to stream games on ESPN? I really don’t want to miss Sunday’s game! ⚽️
Every single-income family with a dependent under 25 should pay no Federal or State income tax. — The Danger of Shortchanging Parents

Any of my mutuals done the MNPD (Nashville police) volunteer chaplain thing? Is it a worthwhile program? Is it a pathway to prevent violence? Checking in before I call for my application.
Since we’re all about adding emoji to represent all families, where’s my option for more than two kids? Statistically, my family of five has greater numbers than others that’ve achieved representation. I’m out here ensuring the growth of humanity, give me an emoji!
Post-Boomer Families
So, it’s not a matter of making any new arguments so much as it is just saying as proudly, without apology: it’s okay to want babies and want to raise them yourself, and to want society to make that goal achievable for the average American.
Even in a “conservative” denomination, it sometimes feels awkward or unwanted to say the above. How odd that me and my wife feel the need to defind or sometimes remain silent about our super boring and logical decision to raise a family in the way its been done most successfully for a very long time. — Five Questions With Family Studies: Helen Andrews Talks Boomers - Institute for Family Studies
Very not cool with Plex tracking. Locally-hosted files that I control is the whole reason I use Plex! Zero reason for them to be snooping!
Very excited for the EP to release! Cathedral Hymns
Alleluia! Christ is risen! The Lord is risen indeed. Alleluia! — The tomb is empty! Sin, death, and the devil have been defeated!
Good Friday
ALMIGHTY God, our heavenly Father, who of thy tender mercy didst give thine only Son Jesus Christ to suffer death upon the Cross for our redemption; who made there (by his one oblation of himself once offered) a full, perfect, and sufficient sacrifice, oblation, and satisfaction, for the sins of the whole world
The cross made these words true. In the darkness of the cross and tomb, we must remember that today is Good Friday. It is good because Jesus redeemed us on the cross and freed us for an eternal, resurrected life in the new creation with him. Thanks be to God!
I think I’m becoming one of those 1662 people. It’s just so beautiful! — 2019 is a great prayer book, but it just feels empty and dull in comparison.
Is it just me or has social media, especially Christian social media become meaner over the last year?

Dual-column, paragraph format King James Bible; this doesn’t exist so far as I can tell, right?
So, if you start the morning office reading in Genesis 31 instead of Exodus, you’re going to be real confused for a bit. — I was like, wait, we’re defining tabernacle worship, why is Jacob here all of sudden!
New nerd post: Z Shell One-Year Update 🤓
Somehow, I’ve been married to this beautiful lady for six years. It is indeed “not good that the man should be alone.” I’m so thankful to have helper along life’s journey!
On some level, we need to stop being ashamed of our Catholic faith & worship. Instead of acting like an odd-ball uncle, we need to stand firm in the reality that American, low-church, Evangelicalism is the aberration in Church history. We are “normal” Christianity!
Recognizing that we got logs in our own eyes, I do wonder if us orthodox, magisterial Protestants and Catholics should speak up more about how bad an idea American Evangelical ecclesiology and theology are? Does our silence imply agreement to the secular world?
Major props are due to Polly. I’ve used Polly to add some retry logic to several services this week. It’s been a joy to work with and simple to implement. Great library. 👨💻
I’m going to need video cards to go down in price so I can build a new PC before this is released! — New Age of Empires IV gameplay footage and more to be shown on April 10 - Neowin
Collect for the Feast of St. Patrick, Apostle to the Irish
O almighty God, who in thy providence didst choose thy servant Patrick to be the apostle of the Irish people, that he might bring those who were wandering in darkness and error to the true light and knowledge of thee; Grant us so to walk in that light, that we may come at last to the light of everlasting life; through the merits of Jesus Christ thy Son our Lord. Amen. (BCP 2004, CoI) 🍀
