I recently discovered that Gen Z do not do gif reactions. If only there were some way I could express my emotional reaction to this news, preferably with a pop culture reference.

My wife is cooking waffles for the kids after pre-school and they smell AMAZING.

Finished reading: Digital Liturgies by Samuel James 📚 good, probably even very good but not as good as the hype. I want to reread some sections.

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God. — Matt 5:9 (ESV)

It’s really bizarre how Biden has turned to the same strongman “only I can…” rhetoric that Trump always employs.

Do my eyes deceive me! Are England actually, pressing? And attacking well?!? The rest defense is working really well too.

Christians of mb. Favourite books on prayer?

British Grand Prix and England football later. It’s a good day for sports!

Goal: Read older books instead of sensational social media nonsense.

You’re okay Micro Blog.

My family went to a local Alpaca park this weekend. How was your weekend?

Sidenote: I really love using a mirrorless camera even if i missed a few images due to manual focusing — it’s an old lens.

I missed most of the England game last night as I was tidying up my Son’s diarrhea so I feel like I had the same experience.

“What values do you want to demonstrate today?” This little prompt has got in my head. I have a list of a few but I’m thinking about Love. “What would it look like if I embodied love? How can I be more loving to my family? What would a loving person do now? How can I be loving to myself too?”

I wonder how much unsplash usage has decreased since so image generators came around… side note: unsplash images are better.

I turn around for five minutes and my daughter has made a fort in the middle of the living room. This is me every day.

Was that the best Grand Prix in years? I haven’t been following much recently but that was great.

It’s a wet day so we’re making one page zines.

Brad East has written a critique of Practicing The Way by John Mark Comer and as with all things Brad East, it’s a thought-provoking critique with plenty of appropriate praise. Pinging @KyleEssary in case he hasn’t read it.

In more film news, there’s a new Rollei 35 AF coming! And Japanese Camera Hunter has the only working prototype.

Pentax has a new film camera (its first for 20 years!) and its…weird.

  • Half frame
  • 37mm focal length (in full frame terms)
  • It’s in portrait mode normally
  • It has zone focusing, but also focuses a bit

It’s not for me (my olympus mju ii is great) but I’m glad to see a new option. I’d love to see a new ricoh gr film option too!

Just sent in my registration to vote as an overseas citizen for the upcoming UK election.
