Check out my new post: REBORN INTO SUBSTACK!
A reflection on moving here after 15 years of maintaining a blog, gratis…
Bodily fatigue is often a contributing factor to sickness of the soul. We can become saints through tiredness, but it is beneficial to understand mechanisms by which we slip away.
There’s still a little Lent left. There’s still time to discover the gift of stripping down distractions to a place of holy rest.
After a few minor technical glitches, we (I) have figured out how to broadcast LIVE via Substack. Join at 5 PT/8 ET and we’ll see if we can somehow replicate this. (Pray for us.)

We lack leaders at the DNC that have the right priorities. It is not just fundraising. Oh that we had some organizers. hotbuttons.substack.com…
What do you know about the DNC, Carl?
The enemy is Trump.
An ad hominem does not help get the DNC going and organizing, does it? Organizing means making them prioritize the steps and they are not. Psychopathic neo-fascists led by Trump are the enemy that I see.

I was an elected member of the local executive committee. I chose not to run this year -- I'm 81 -- can't travel. The local chair asked my opinion. I said have Hilary Clinton talk to the 2 MAGAT amigos here in Baghad By the Sea individually to convince them to flip back.
Watch the Erica Chenoweth video. I think we can work on organization that has wheels and the legs we older (76) people lack. All we need to do now is to get it organized, I think. That is my drift. I am always appreciative of your input. You do way more than I.
