Sabbath Sign Out: Besitos for dessert. This pup is Luna who I met on May Day in #ChelseaMA. Then today, I found besitos at Market Basket in Waltham! We all deserve más besitos y menos deportaciones. Feast and rest for the work is long. # HereToStay

First day physically back in the office. I have copied and pasted the text already 7 x 70 times: "Thank you for your patience while I was on leave caring for my mother while she was in hospice and then died." The gmail "vacation setting" is a liar.

Praying today with Luke 11- let us pray 🙏: Not gonna lie, Lord, not entirely sure what you’re up to here, but I hear You on how I see the world. Lately it’s been pretty grim. I don’t so much demand signs as I don’t expect You to be operating. Forgive me. Let me put the lamp on the lamp stand today.

#BostonWNBA team would like to pick up Kate Martin

Marisa Ingemi@mingemi.bsky.social

Natalie Nakase on the Valkyries waiving Kate Martin: “A lot of heartache, I would say, you don't want to replace a person like Kate. Kate Martin just was our family member, someone we cared really deeply, and we still do care deeply about Kate.”

I’m so impressed with the environment of Ballhala. #Wnba 🏀 🙌🏽☘️ With the ENORMOUS ego of Boston and GIGANTIC chip on our shoulder, I promise we can build a fabulous place to play women’s ball here. As long as we let no Wahlberg anywhere near it. #BostonWNBA

5. Denying me the #BostonWNBA team I rightly deserve.

Nik Streng@nikstreng.bsky.social

Cathy Engelbert’s swan song has been: 1. Players openly hate her 2. Sabotaged the 2026 free agency period 3. The league infiltrated by transphobes 4. Finals schedule is a disaster

Yes, I want better elected officials than this hot totalitarian leaning mess No, the Democratic Party ain’t gonna save anyone. I need some of my progressive Christian folk to tighten it up.

Praying today with Luke 11- Let us pray 🙏: O Lord, why can’t we let good things be? Healing is taking place and still we demand more signs and reasons why. A house divided falls on itself and kingdoms become deserts. Teach me satisfaction today with reasonable, good things. Enough and plenty. Amen.

Praying today with 1 Thessalonians 2- let us pray 🙏: “So deeply do we care for you that we are determined to share with you not only the gospel of God but also our own selves, because you have become very dear to us.” Sharing our own lives is holy, O Lord. Give us to one another and to You. Bless.

Sabbath Sign out- rice bowl bounty and a very attentive chihuahua searching for salmon. Grief and gratitude coexisting, new music Friday, wnba tomorrow ‘cause these Celtics are a mess, NWSL tonight and rest, rest, rest. Remember we deserve it. Just because.

👀 The gentle lady from #Boston would like to report a sighting of a WAYMO on Washington Street in #JamaicaPlain. 🙋‍♀️ A motion, Kehd, to lower Storrow Drive bridge 12 inches lower than whatever their clearance is. 🤖 Get these self-driving toaster ovens out of my f-ing city.

Praying today with Matthew 10 on the feast day of St James of Jerusalem, the brother or half brother or cousin of our Lord- Let us pray 🙏: Not sure who chose this Scripture, Lord, but it’s a hard sell to be sent among wolves. I appreciate that I do not need to prepare. Give me Your words and grace.

Ok, but y’all are missing the religion story here with #ChrisPappas, I think. Unless I’m big wrong he’s also Greek Orthodox (dad owns a diner that invented chicken tenders!) there’d be a gay Orthodox senator from NH ?! 🇬🇷🙏❄️🤯🙌🏽🌈☦️ 🍗🪨 #NHpol www.nytimes.com/2026/10/22/u...

nytimes.comChris Pappas Could Make History in New Hampshire’s Senate RaceChris Pappas, the Democratic nominee, would make history if he won. On the campaign trail, he doesn’t dwell on it.

Tell me how you know FIFA has not been to the United States in January 🤷‍♀️❄️🪏

Donald Wine II@blazindw.bsky.social

#FIFA has officially awarded the 2028 Women's Club World Cup to the United States. The tournament will run January 5-30, 2028. #NWSL #USLSL

#October22 1844 is known as the “Day of Great Disappointment” when Baptist Rev William Miller predicted Jesus would return. His followers were disappointed when He did not. I chose to commemorate annually a #GreatDayofDisappointment with your 3 out of 10 disappointments- what day Ye?

Praying today with Luke 10- let us pray 🙏: Maybe we should call this “the justifying lawyer” rather than “the Good Samaritan,” Lord? Because we *know* what is right but we want to find reasons not to do it. Gimme a loophole, Lord! But Your way is mercy to my neighbor. Inconvenient mercy.

Absolutely the worst forum mod behavior. Trolls are to be banned.

Brian Hamilton@brianchamilton.bsky.social

Atlanta Dream statement on Enes Kanter Freedom attending Game 3.

Praying today with Luke 10: let us pray 🙏: Jesus says “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see!” And too often I’m focused on my to-do list to see the glory and miracles in front of me. Too focused on what I’m trying to accomplish. Help me be patient to see today, Lord. Slow me down to watch You.

In your charity, prayers for my family. An extended Sabbath sign out from work& social media so I can be emotionally present as our mother passes from this life to the next. Productivity is my drug of choice. But we are not made just to labor, but for love. Pray that death be “gentle as nightfall.”

Praying today with Luke 6- let us pray 🙏: O Lord, I know it’s been here all along, but I’ve never noticed before that the mass healing & the blessing are tied together. We preachers cut these two passages apart. Healing and blessing, here and now. Bless us now. Heal us now. You long for us to heal.

athletes and celebrities don't *have* to shill for harmful companies just because that's where the money is and it's refreshing to be reminded of that

Mike Finger@mikefinger.bsky.social

Just asked Victor Wembanyama if he’d ever consider promoting a sports betting company. “Absolutely not. I will never do that. Honestly, I think it's very sad to see some players promote it. .. Everybody does whatever they want, but without me.”

Sitting in a bench. Killed by a driver of a vehicle while sitting on a bench AT A HOSPITAL IN BOSTON. I genuinely do not know how to make our #Boston roads any safer from vehicular violence until we have locks on our phones and redesign city streets. #Bospoli #visionZero

Men, stop one another. Because I’m tired of doing it. I’m in a nursing home, visiting in the dementia unit. The male maintenance workers didn’t think anyone was around, so they were talking about paintball-tying a guy to a tree “hitting and humiliating him.” I stuck my head out and they apologize

You know what you are doing. You know it’s violent and wrong! You immediately stopped. Totally predictable behavior. So damn tiring. If it’s shameful in public don’t do it in private. Create a culture of interruption. Be willing to stick your head out.

Praying today with Hosea 5- let us pray 🙏: O Lord what a mess the people are, and how much You just want us to return to You. I’m sorry. You tell us “I desire steadfast love, and not sacrifices,” but we keep sacrificing. I’m sorry. Help us. Come like the spring rain, like the fall nor’easter.

look I don't even go here anymore but I hope folks are noticing that this shit is happening *exactly* at the same time this administration eliminated loans to study religion

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Hegseth: "Today, at my direction, I'm establishing the Office of Religious Affairs. It will report straight to the top -- a direct line to the secretary ... as Psalm 33:12 extolls us, blessed is the nation in which God is the Lord"

Our solution to someone killing is to kill more? Lord, forgive us. Cruel and unusual. Cruel and despicable. Lord, forgive us.

The death penalty is a moral abomination. State-sanctioned barbarism pushed by incompetent morons and sanctioned by the Supreme Court. Absolute ghoul shit. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Being from NJ, with a 101 year old Grandmother who WILL NOT pick up the phone when the Yankees are playing, I am not your Boston clergy available to pastor the Boston faithful’s grief should there be a Wild Card collapse. I will not betray my family like that.
