Happy Thanksgiving! Since Thanksgiving is not just about getting food coma from all that turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy, and pumpkin pie, I’ll include this Song of Thanksgiving, from the Book of Isaiah, Chapter 12. On that day, you will say: I give you thanks, O LORD; though you have been angry with me, your […]
RIP Dramacool
I pay annual subscriptions to: Netflix without the ads Viki Pass Plus because I wanted immediate access to shows, without ads Youtube Premium because I can’t be bothered with the ads on regular Youtube Prime Video, but technically, this came free with my Amazon Prime membership Paramount+ (What’s this? I never used it. It came […]
U.S. Election 2024: To WEnchanteur
I’m moving your comment here, @WEnchanteur so that I can break my “no politics” rule on this blog just this once. You wrote: Wow! Best day of the year. I wish I could be american. I’m even less pessimistic than usual, at least for the world outside my doomed country. Last July, shortly before the […]

From the gospel of Luke… They found the stone rolled away from the tomb; but when they entered, they did not find the body of the Lord Jesus. While they were puzzling over this, behold, two men in dazzling garments appeared to them. They were terrified and bowed […]
The Midnight Studio: Open Thread
The thread is open. At this point, I think most of us should practice JOMO (“joy of missing out”). But if there’s a kind soul out there who’s watching this, please give us an update. The screenwriter, Kim Yi Rang, previously wrote “Flower Crew: Joseon Marriage Agency” which wouldn’t have been so bad if the […]
Ash Wednesday
How did your Ash Wednesday go, @agdr03 and @GB? Mine’s just about to start. In many ways, I prefer the Lenten season to Advent. They’re both a time of preparation. Lent prepares us for Easter while Advent prepares us for the birth of Jesus. But the Advent season has become so commercialized because of the […]

Merry Christmas!
Have a blessed Christmas, everyone! The Birth of Jesus. In those days a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that the whole world should be enrolled. This was the first enrollment, when Quirinius was governor of Syria. So all went to be enrolled, each to his own town. And Joseph too went up from Galilee […]
