This website and its form of social reward and punishment has proven to be a terrible master. No matter how well you curate your following, the outcome is still negative imho. I’ll keep the account active for some sports related things only. But I’m deleting the app. Peace.


Got emotional reading the end of Don Quixote. One of my favorite reads from my semester with @OBU_Honors We all need a little crazy. Reality is depressing.


I’ve been mostly off X for the last 4 months. I’ve been more present in my family’s life. Taking good care of my physical and mental health, loved and enjoyed my work. I miss being on the inside of several theological/political issues. But I’ll continue to choose joy.


“He is insane who dreams that he may learn by mortal reasoning the boundless orbit Three Persons in One Substance.” Dante, Purgatorio, Canto III.


I can’t decide if the existence of shows like The Bachelor/The Bachelorette are a symptom or a cause of the western decadence.


It’s fall weather, we are at the lake, and I’m reading Treier as prep for next week’s class. A good weekend.

Andrey Rublev is such a machine. Guy deserves all good things in the world of tennis. #USOpen2024


Honest observational question from an outsider: what’s the deal with people with able bodies that decide to ride the mobility scooters in the grocery store? I’m trying really hard not to be judgmental, but failing to find an answer, other than pure laziness.


I’m co-leading at the honors program at @obunews this semester on the medieval world. Here is our list of books. Thanks, @BenMyersPoet and @Paulsanchez408 for inviting me to participate.

Today, the greatest communicator in Brazilian TV passed away. An icon of generations. RIP, Silvio Santos.

I am “I’d rather put a black rebok and be comfortable instead of using dress shoes” years old.


This should not be a controversial opinion. Mijain Lopez is the greatest Olympian to have ever lived. 5 consecutive gold in wrestling in 5 different olympiads. Mijain > Phelps and it’s not even close.


It’s Rio’s Christ the Redeemer and there is not even a competition. Mountains, idyllic beaches, city with great vibe, and the statue up there gesturing its blessing over it all.

Wrapping up summer looking at this insightful book on the state of students in higher education.

How is break dancing an Olympic sport and stuff like Jiu Jitsu is not?


I am at Trader Joe’s and absolutely every person in here dresses the same way. It’s incredible!


Absolute GOAT. Flawless performance from a man who had a knee surgery a couple of months ago and was also the oldest man to compete in an Olympic tennis final. Now with a career golden slam. So happy for Djokovic.

This movie. Hope, desperation, anger, love, freedom. What was it about? I have many theories, but I can’t take it out of my head.

As someone with limited cooking abilities, but lots of desire to cook well, I’ll go ahead and put the air fryer as top 10 inventions of the last 50 years.
