Reformed Theology: in times like these.
Travel day one. Matthew 20:20-28 20 Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to [a]Jesus with her sons, bowing down and making a request of Him. 21 And He said to her, “What do you wish?” She *said to Him, “Command that in Your kingdom these two sons of mine may sit one Continue Reading
We are away for a week’s needed break. All posts for bible are scheduled, as is some poetry. In the meantime, (thanks BKGB) the world is becoming more blasphemous. Do not be like them.
I spent a fair amount of time this week comforting the grieving, because there have been a series of bad events in the local town. Most of which involve civilians. This led to me being stressed, in survival mode, and limiting high risk interactions until I was calmer. I ate food at gatherings in companionship Continue Reading
This started with a problem on the desktop, which has run Fedora for… about five years. I need something that will handle photo manipulation and deal with scanners. Lightweight distros don’t cut it. But DNF is currently — borked. The entire thing is locked down, not able to work. So I do what any geek Continue Reading

My local MP is resigning. She made it into the cabinet, but failed. A fair amount of her local advocacy has been around social and health issues. Yes, I live in a Labour stronghold for the MP, but in two of the last three elections Labour did not get most of the party vote. David Continue Reading
In this time when our private emails are tracked and social media read our invoices, a warning that the worm can turn. The modern General Bangs would ensure the signaller was posted to the front. A Code of Morals Lest you should think this story true I merely mention I Evolved it lately. ‘Tis a Continue Reading
I used to have a social media profile. I am now anonymous: my professional life is on the appropriate pages, but that does not include Facebook and Twitter. They are becoming closed gardens for Pravda. Pravda is the official narrative, often orthogonal to the truth. This seems to make corporations more money than targeted advertising. Continue Reading
