I figured out what I don't like about the phrase: "Do you want to be in relationship, or do you want to be right?" And it's this: I want to be in relationships where it is the *default understanding* that conflict is not an existential threat to the relationship.

This is the third time recently I've been on an @amtrak.com car with no AC. HELP! #146. It's swampy.

I won't swear I got caught in the rain yesterday, but after lunch I noted a yellow mustard stain on my habit. It's gone now.

In DC for the Episcopal Tri-History conference. The only way I could make it work was the overnight train, so I was anticipating peak misery right about now, but the Hotel let me check in! Nap before conference? Yes! www.trihistory.org

I have ambivalence about that one! I actually learned the phrase first in a translation of Hava Nagila and it was estΓ©. But yeah, it's one of those places where ser/estar vibe differently! Also, PDFs here: www.episcopalcommonprayer.org/existing-lit... not the same, but useful!

I know, and I'm general I think that the language IS better. Far less stiff, and more idiomatic (while recognizing that what's idiomatic in one country is weird in another!). But in the few things I've prepared in Spanish, I mix and match from the two PDFs.

Lots of parishes are not switching. There are PROBLEMS with the copy editing and production. The font (esp. in the psalter) is unconscionably small, the page references (like addit'l directions on page 324) are all keyed to the old book. AND one of the Eucharist prayers just omits the Sanctus!

GitHub - gbj/venite: Spec and rendering components for the Liturgy Document Format (LDF) used by Venite.app Spec and rendering components for the Liturgy Document Format (LDF) used by Venite.app - gbj/venite

Try modding on your own? It's a long-term goal of mine to build something like venite with chant tones incorporated. github.com/gbj/venite I'm not 100% sure that's all of it, but that's where I would start.

Either habit or cassock and fascia. But that is also true of going places generally, except, like, physical therapy.

I think this happens a lot. Or they devolve into something we do and no longer know why. It become such a burden that what was supposed to move along a spiritual path actually becomes a stumbling block.

Detest POTS! With how hot it can get under vestments, I practically need a salt lick at the altar. But I'm pretty sure that's an optic too far! Electrolyte-apalooza. I'm sorry about your sitch.

We had our Visitation Mass in the evening, and debated how exactly to do it, but decided that as we started before the sun went down, we were legit still Visitation.

First, CONGRATS! The first time is flipping terrifying. Even if you know it know it. I don't know about it you're a trained singer already, but for the untrained? Terrifying! My voice was quavery AF. And second, who cares how many people do it how often? This is YOURS! πŸ’—

I never knew about minor proper before coming to this parish. I love them. I spend hours with Ritual Notes and the Anglican Missal, ignoring the sexism and learning the ceremonial.

My parish does most of these additions (note we do humble access AND Lord I am not worthy). However, both priests are women. I do not understand the association of Anglo Catholicism with sexism! The the movement would have died without Victorian sisterhoods! See Susan Mumm's book.

Also, what are "LGBTQ graduate majors"? Graduate students are rarely referred to as having majors. So the just not want queer people to graduate? Do they think you can major in being queer at Harvard? Do they think that the existence of Harvard prevents plumbers from existing? #SMH

CPE residency in a children's hospital? It's not work everyone can do, and if kids and chaplaincy are an intersection for you, that's always needed.

I forgot a πŸ•―οΈ because I feel like someone out there is gonna tell me, yes, that's from a Whipple cassock and only one made between 1892 and 1924. Because someone definitely knows this.
