Y’all, seriously. eBikes are awesome. I’ve been a greenway cyclist for ages, but have been hesitant to do city chores because I’m slow off the line and crawl up hills. (I’ve got arthritis.) eBike makes that all go away. The entire city is flat and I can gently throttle off the line before I start peddling. Love it! Just road with my daughter to pick up some groceries and had a blast. 🚴‍♂️🚲

I am going to be a mayor who delivers not shiny objects and toys for tourists, but rather services and excellence for the people who live here.

I’m hopeful this pushes big players to the open web. I still have to keep up (via RSS) with the bird to track local government and services accounts. — Paul Haddad: “Have heard the same thing…

The missing bit here is that the deal with MLS gives season ticket holders it for free. This is huge. I can watch NSC play all the home games and don’t have to stress about not having cable when we play away. Amazing! — MLS opening weekend on Apple TV points to an expensive future for sports streaming - The Verge

A big infrastructure need I see in Nashville is a safe, low-stress North to South and East to West route through downtown. Crossing four-lane roads full of tourists in SUVs is not great. — Give bikes a few dedicated crossing and a button to press to give us some dedicated time to cross. Low investment, huge impact.

I had an amazing time cycling to the game with my little bud. E-bikes change the game. They flatten the city. It was like cycling in Amsterdam, except I was still in beautiful Nashville, Tennessee. — The technology is here. Let’s build the infrastructure to support it. Every two-lane road in Nashville with a speed limit under forty should lose a lane to make room for bikes and pedestrians.

Dear Ticketmaster, What is this hot garbage? I am not going to a concert!

First Nashville SC game of the season. So ready to be back! And, I get to ride my new bike there, too. ⚽️ 🚴 🏰

As we’re going through the adoption process, I’ve found that people speaking of “adopting” or “fostering” animals just rubs me in the wrong way.

Started listening to my Lent playlist a few hours early. Very open to some great additions. I’m especially interested in some accustic arrangements of hymns & some gospel. open.spotify.com/playlist/…

Super interesting thoughts on how the Church can help boys grow into faithful men. — How Churches Should Respond To The Boy Crisis

Just a few days away! I can’t wait to be back in the Castle! ⚽️

I’m convinced: the hardest part of ministry is asking for help.

I really enjoy my little fire pit. 🔥

What a powerful statement by Archbishop Stephen. Clearly defined the issue as not a reaction against a particular practice, but an entire ethic around the right use of human sexuality and how we project God’s holiness in a fallen world. — Response to Church of England’s Decision to Bless Same Sex Unions

I’m not sure what else to say. We knew it was coming, but the reality of what the CoE has done to the Communion is difficult to process. St. Charles did not lay down his life for his descendants to be so easily swayed by the gods of power and popularity.

The visible Church of Christ is a congregation of faithful men, in the which the pure Word of God is preached, and the Sacraments be duly ministered according to Christ’s ordinance in all those things that of necessity are requisite to the same.

As the Church of Jerusalem, Alexandria, and Antioch, [and most tragically of England] have erred; so also the Church of Rome hath erred, not only in their living and manner of Ceremonies, but also in matters of Faith.

I know it won’t happen, but if the King took his role as defender of the faith seriously, he’d recall the synod immediately and depose the bishops who voted yes. — What a sad day for the descendants of English Christianity!

One of these days there’s going to be an actual snake or scorpion in my house and I’m going to walk right past it because of my son’s conditioning with the rubber variety strewn all over.

A great ministry — led by yours truly — is looking for board members and an accountant. — Christ our Anchor Anglican Mission - Launching Assistance Needed
