happy youre getting into mob psycho! just a heads up, if you do liveblog it, tagging a single post and then reblogging that post to add commentary is preferred so that the tag doesnt fill with one off posts, but anyone interested in scrolling through it can go into the notes!

Thanks, anon, for your suggestion. I will certainly give that a try!

Started Mob Psycho 100. Reigen is a jerk. I'm pretty sure Mob reaching 100 is Bad News. Good first episode. Will probably live blog this as I have time.

I like it!

Villain name: The Evil Overlord Dr. Villain-Man Who Is a Bad Guy ("The Evil Doctor" or "Ted" for short)

Intention: I'm on a quest to rip off all the tags on the mattresses, document where I found them, and blackmail the people en masse for going along with this Bulgarian mafia conspiracy. I mean, who are they to determine what we can and cannot do with those tags? Thing is, your place is a little too secure for me to be able to sneak into. So, if I became your nemesis, maybe I could do something distracting so I can get those tags. Ain't nothing like a challenge to get the blood pumping! Also, it's been kind of boring to be villainy without a hero to fight against. I greatly appreciate your consideration!

this may be the greatest thing I have ever read—you may absolutely become my nemesis!! I will await my upcoming distraction with great anticipation. Also, as a nemesis, is there anything you require from me?

Just over a month before graduation, and right in time for the next season of My Hero Academia. It'll be just what I need to decompress. Gotta see what all these manga spoilers have been about.

My dad, who works all the time, noticed I was exhausted and said I needed a break. Now many of my friends are in agreement. I need to take a gap year before I pursue anything else.

Part of that will mean more writing. Fun writing, not essays for class.

A fount of blessings upon thee, Wonderful Person!

I was wondering where you've been.

Blessings to you, as well.

Some of my Dracula snarks, which I made over a year ago, are still trickling in reblogs. Does anything truly rest here?

#I think it's kind of amusing and also neat. #c'est la vie

I passed my capstone project, which was the last major hurdle I needed to clear to graduate. Unless something trips me up before then, I will graduate in May. I've had my eye on this degree for about 20 years now. The dream is almost fully realized.

The beginning of this video by the Bible Project has been the most interesting analogy I've seen. It uses the perception of a two-dimensional creature on a three-dimensional object.

what metaphor for the trinity do you suggest?

The only metaphor I can even sort of recommend is the one suggested by the Bible with the idea of Christ being the word, God the Father being the speaker, and the Holy Spirit being the breath. Some have also come up with the idea of the triple flame from a single source, though I haven't heard a lot of teaching on this specific one.

Yet, to have a metaphor to directly explain the Trinity is impossible, since it is not fully comprehensible to the human mind that one being can be three persons. But, some metaphors are worse than others. Therefore no metaphor should dominate our thinking. Also, when explaining the Trinity to a beginner it's important not to start off by bending their thinking toward a potential heresy like modalism or partialism. This will give them a starting misconception of what God is like.

All three persons of God are fully God and have all the complete authority and power and every attribute of the Godhead. God doesn't switch between or "act as" the different persons. The Father, Son, and Spirit coeternally coexist. At the same time they are not three gods, but share the same essence. It is better just to give a theological definition of what the Trinity is than to boil it down to a bite-sized metaphor that you can fit in your hand like a clover or an egg.

Frieren is a good fantasy anime with an interesting journey and amazing characters. I recommend it.

This is why classes need library instruction

Student: I can’t find any scholarly articles on this subject!

Me: Okay, what’s the subject?

Student: Creating a culture of sharing in west-coast technological companies.

Me: Alright, and what/where have you tried searching?

Student: I searched “creating a culture of sharing in west-coast technological companies” on the library website!

Me:

#I am a librarian and I vouch for all this information. #Seriously I have to teach people how to search every year #Even some professors #Ask a librarian!

God’s desire is that the wicked turn from their sin rather than die.

I'm still around. I'm sorta done. But, I can't be, because I have another two months of classes to get done. Gotta do them if I want to graduate in May. It's a graduate degree, but senioritis is still a thing. Gah!
