"The scariest thing about sovereignty in the Lordship of Jesus is that he is all about freedom. Authoritarianism? That's easy, man. That's why the world is lapping it up right now. ...If you don't know how to move past your own self-indulgence you don't know about freedom, you know about liberty... I've been that guy, I know what it means to be chained by your pleasures. That's Brave New World, right? None of those people were free." - Fr Turbo Qualls, Royal Path 004

Time to be a contractor again, I guess

I got an interview request from Amazon. I said basically, "I'm not willing to work with Amazon, have a nice day," and they _wrote back_ asking "Why? How can Amazon change?" and I'm seriously considering writing back.

I went to an Eastern Orthodox church service today and now that I've finished a couple dozen, "Why do orthodox do ______" searches it's time to look at orthodoxy memes. These are what I found so far.

Snow Crash was brushing up against the truth with its idea of a "nam-shub" but it goes much deeper:

I'm making sloppy joes with the family recipe, and the house smells like happy childhood memories.

Per 1 lb cooked drained ground beef, add:
1/2 tsp paprika
1 tsp chili powder
1 Tbsp dry mustard
1 Tbsp chopped parsley
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 Tbsp brown sugar
2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup Ketchup
1 cup water

Reduce 20 min
Refrigerate
Best after reheating. Goes well with mayo or american cheese on a burger bun, or as a hot dog topping

Interrobang from Switchfoot was released today. It's so good. Not simply good tunes, but powerful, sincere, timely messages, calling for reconciliation, recognizing the humanity in each other, and recovering from self-deception and splintered relationships.
