Look, I don't know exactly what this would look like but we need a fundamentalist classification chart, because no matter how you use the word people think it's wrong. So maybe like:

I will never look at 1950s cookbooks the same way again. 😶
The last time men forced women back into the kitchen we put shrimp in Jello. We’ll do it again!
Dear Christian Bluesky: Please pray for a close family member of mine who had to have emergency surgery this week and has no health insurance. And please pray that we as a nation would come to our senses and support healthcare for all so no one has to be in this position. 🙏💔
All I want is a plant conservatory/used bookstore/full service coffee bar within walking distance. Is that too much to ask?
I'm horrified but also so very, very intrigued.
You can't predict the turns this sentence takes. Extreme heat is threatening Italy’s “cheese banks,” where hundreds of thousands of Parmigiano-Reggiano wheels are stored as loan collateral. fortune.com/2026/08/10/i...
Why is there entire genre of AI-generated images right now that's just Zendaya and Tom Holland?? Who's behind this and why???
I read lots of stuff I don't like, for research, but some are more unpleasant than others. I'm sitting here just KNOWING that I'm going to have to read/listen to a bunch of Jordan Peterson stuff and it make me want to cry because I feel like he was genetically engineered to annoy me.

I have five different family trees started on ancestry.com right now and only one is mine. Is it research, or am I just nosy?

Between research for the podcast, my continuing work the @anastasiscenter.bsky.social and my secret WIP, I have read so, so many books in 2026. I don't think I've ever read so much in such a short period of time. I feel like my job is just "book."

🧵We've lived in Oregon, Washington and now Idaho. For years, we've just come to expect that for part of our summer we'll be inside because of smoke from fires. This summer is no different - I'm looking out the window and the sky looks like the color of a Goodwill couch donated by a chainsmoker.
Oh man yeeeessss and there are so many!!! "Why am I seeing this?" I don't know Jan, why are you looking at it?
This forever.
The "I need to buy and read the Emily Brown translation of the Odyssey" has come for me.

Went to the Odyssey last night and I have no notes. It was just superb. Also I will always die on the hill that Lupita N’yongo is the most beautiful woman on planet earth and the obvious racism exhibited every time a black woman appears on screen is getting really tiresome.
I’ve decided that my new construction of patriarchy is “M.S.M.” - “men sucking up to men.”
I haven't read much fiction lately because who has the time, but my recent research on the tech-trad alliance is leading me to believe that if we want to know what's coming next, we should probably be reading obscure sci-fi because that's apparently what the tech and trad people are reading.
"In a world that says, 'Am I my brother’s keeper?' women become the invisible “safety net” that catches those unable to contribute economically: the very young, the very old, and those with serious illness or handicaps." - It's a Man's World: The Genesis 3:16 Effect @anastasiscenter.bsky.social
Do non-churchpeople know what "gird your loins" means?
I dream that someday I'll be able to just outline something, then write according to the outline, instead of blindly tunneling around in my manuscript for three hours then being like "Is this anything?"
This is why I hardly ever comment on stuff. I just spent 30-40 minutes of time I should be writing, responding to someone who wants a graduate-level essay, fully-sourced, on something I said I "suspect" may happen. Nobody's paying me for this.
Behind every movement that says we need to stop paying attention to secular experts and just "go by what the Bible says," there's usually a discredited (secular) academic in search of an uncritical audience for his half-baked ideas.
Every time I see one of those "I did xyz to see my husband's reaction" videos, I can't stop thinking about the fact that the dude giving his "spontaneous reaction" has a tripod with a camera on it in front of his face.
