I feel like I should be doing something today to try and secure parishes for displays. However my options are pretty much limited. It is just a matter of waiting for the email/phone call that will never happen. Ironic since today is the kind of day where I could use such things to help improve my current mood.
Christ has prepared a small splinter of His cross to share with me.
It’s so small that it’s a bit laughable.

Logged out Twitter for the last time today, it definitely feels good. I don’t think I’m really going to use these notes unless there’s a good reason, because the dopamine treadmill is a huge part of why I left. If I’m gonna get likes and restacks at least let me earn it with longform content.

This was a tactical success but a strategic blunder by Hamas. The Western left has restrained Israel in its dealings with Hamas for over a decade now. That is now gone. It’s going to really difficult to try and rein in an Israeli response to an assault that really looks no different than what we saw from groups like ISIS.
100% Although the media will try it on. I think the leadership in general will have to both support Israel and step back as she defends herself.
If anything good can come of this tragedy, it'll be that Gaza is destroyed and incorporated back into Israel.
