Angels are divine machines

Made of gears and pistons and screws and steam

And machines are mortal angels,

So I was reading a long post about hospitality culture and it made me think about the Spanish-speaking Catholic priests who live in a house on my block

Now, my dad was raised Catholic, and is fluent in Spanish, and he's tried a few times over the past decade to properly introduce himself to them but gets ignored every time

But I just now realized that the fact he mows the yard shirtless and has a tattoo of a snake on his chest just might explain their reluctance

Been enjoying the "Christmas as explained to a Jewish audience" posts even tho I have to look up a fair amount of vocab! Despite being raised non-religiously you can't really escape the Christian culture 'round these parts; it's an interesting perspective for sure.

A lot of my teenage and adult Winter Holidays Experience™ has involved coordinating between different families and denominations but very much removed from the actual religious/traditional origins. Is the "listening to live music and drinking coffee in the church at midnight" just a Moravian thing? I'm only now thinking of googling that.

Plus when I worked at the vet I was often working holidays because that's when people boarded their pets. There were times I'd load my family's Christmas dinner directly into a lunchbox and drive back to work, it would keep in the car. Split shifts, yunno.

2 Kings 2:23-24

“From there Elisha went up to Bethel. As he was walking along the road, some boys came out of the town and jeered at him. ‘Get out of here, baldy!’ they said. ‘Get out of here, baldy!’ He turned around, looked at them and called down a curse on them in the name of the LORD. Then two bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the boys.”

Never not funny when people take Christianity and stick chronically online terms on it
