On Video Game Mechanics and Combat
I talk about a lot of things on here, the most of which has tended towards religion, which makes sense, that’s what i’m literally the master of if you ask my paperwork. But I have plenty of other hobbies, one of which is definitely playing video games. I just had a conversation with a friendContinue reading “On Video Game Mechanics and Combat”
On the Central Scene of the Entire Star Wars Franchise
A couple years ago my brother and I did a March Madness bracket on the canon of Star Wars music. I made the case that the piece, Yoda and the Force was the best piece of music in the entirety of the Star Wars musical canon. And today, on the 40th anniversary of The EmpireContinue reading “On the Central Scene of the Entire Star Wars Franchise”
On Anxiety and Philippians 4
So I was recently tagged in a “see a verse, send a verse” thing on Instagram, and as happens the verse I was tagged in was the verse I wanted to use, Psalm 23. So I took some time, did a little thinking and eventually selected a passage out of Philippians 4: 4 Rejoice in theContinue reading “On Anxiety and Philippians 4”

On Introversion and the Covid
I realized something last night, a synthesis of experience and reflection. I wrote in my last post about all the different games you should try if this outbreak affords you your first opportunity to do a little gaming, and the other night I spent the night playing a party game with my family and aContinue reading “On Introversion and the Covid”
On COVID-19 and Panic
So. It’s been quite the couple of weeks…. I’ve been watching things unfold alongside everyone else and struggling against the tide not to panic. I’ve said a lot in the last couple months about what’s going on and how we shouldn’t panic and how the mainstream media is lying and overblowing the issue in orderContinue reading “On COVID-19 and Panic”
An Atypical Update
So last week I didn’t write anything, and the week before the post was a half-finished ramble about attachment which I wasn’t really proud of, but I had scheduled to go out that Saturday and I forgot to finish so I just let it go live and carry on with my life. And I’ll beContinue reading “An Atypical Update”
On Letting Go.
“Attachment leads to jealousy, the shadow of greed, that is. (…) Train yourself to let go of everything you are afraid to lose” -Yoda I have never, ever been good at this. I make an effort not to hoard a large treasure trove of possessions I would be unwilling to part with. Besides my car,Continue reading “On Letting Go.”
On Kanye West, Christian Music, and “Jesus is King” Part 3: The Prosperity Gospel.
This post will have very little to do with Kanye West. When Jesus came to the temple in Jerusalem and saw the money changers and merchants fleecing the people who had come to worship God he was furious. He famously turned over the tables and drove the merchants out with a whip. See, while IContinue reading “On Kanye West, Christian Music, and “Jesus is King” Part 3: The Prosperity Gospel.”
