There are a lot of things in our society that we should rethink participating in because of the way it exploits labor. This is pretty low in the list. Would love to get to it after we, I don’t know, pay “essential workers” livable wages?

Luther was reacting against heresy. All the early reformers thought they were preserving orthodoxy. Very odd take.

The Nightmare Before Christmas Is About Disenchantment Tim Burton's classic 'The Nightmare Before Christmas' is best understood as a disenchantment and reenchantment story.

This @mereorthodoxy.bsky.social essay is great. Better cultural commentary than I expected. mereorthodoxy.com/the-nightmar...

There’s a somewhat (but not too much) embarrassing theme in my top 5 podcasts this year.

Nice of Oregon to put in Dante Moore and give Washington a preview of how they’ll beat them the next few years. #goducks

We Who Wrestle with God by Jordan Peterson review — rambling, hectoring and mad The conservative polemicist’s new book is a bizarre study of the Bible featuring Jiminy Cricket, Harry Potter and Tinkerbell the porn fairy

I know his books are intended for a superfan audience that is undaunted by critique from the liberal elites, but some of these reviews are *chef’s kiss*. “It is unclear whether he believes in God. He certainly does not believe in rational argument.”

A friendly reminder that most churches are small, rural, poor and do a lot of community service.Taxing them out of existence is not only just an urban liberal pipe dream but would be a disaster for those communities.
