Warum haben deutsche Bibeln größtenteils festen Einband?

So, based what I’m seeing on social (and non) media, I’m going to need to stay up and listen to Kanye West’s new album after the kids go to bed. 🎶

As a father I’m quite proud at how worn Rosemary’s St. Joseph’s Bible is. 💚

Fifty days of Latin on DuoLingo! I’m proud of myself for starting and sticking with this!

I watched 9 to 5 for the first time the other day. What a funny little movie! Not at all what I expected. 🎬

Thor Mirchandani’s article on fully homomorphic encryption in The Hacker Quarterly has me thinking about how you might use that with Kafka and micro services. Would be cool to have services acting upon events that are never decrypted. 🤔

An actual, working pay phone found at a rest stop in Florida. It’s been ages since I’ve seen one of these.

Started Mark’s gospel again this morning. It’s amazing how quickly he gets rolling. John, baptism, temptation, disciples, miracles, 💥 🤯. I always leave chapter 1 with whiplash and I love it!

My first German homily (text & audio) in a very long time. I realize I’ve forgotten everything I ever learned about grammar! Y’all, pray for my longer sermon in November! — Dass sie Alle eins Seien

I’m late to the party on this, but Gemeinsames Leben is 🔥. I’m doing some serious highlighting.

Given what’s going on in the US and UK, it wouldn’t be awful if the queen asserted her authority. Honestly, we need a Christian prince more now than ever. What does she have to lose?

I can pretty much guarantee I’m the only person in the world listening to this album right now. 🎶
