A little story about @AndrewPeterson's Behold the Lamb of God.

Dear @mlb, I love baseball. I love sharing that with my boys. I do not love that staying up to watch WS games means also being exposed to an ad selling as much sex as it is sports gambling. They don't need to see that. I don't need to see that. Do better.
Remember, the algorithm (and companies, countries, political parties, influencers, etc. leveraging the algorithm) is trying to...
...make you discontent
...make you angry
...stoke controversy
...create disunity
...keep you here longer than you planned to be
Is it working?
X is a pretty unpleasant place anymore, so here's a fun little haiku I hope will make your day better (unless for some of you, it provokes unbridled rage, in which case, hey, just like the rest of X).
In Autumn leaves fall
Days shorten, hope and joy fade
But wait! Candy Corn
The next @BleacherNation podcast is going to be REALLY interesting...looking forward to the insider scoop on crazy deals, reporting, site crashing, all on zero sleep during the #BNBlogathon.
Sincerely, good work under ridiculous circumstances, guys.
Hey @BleacherNation, just catching up. Nice work today. Have a great night and see you in the morning. #BNBlogathon
This Hoosier is appreciating the interview with my man Mitch - thanks @BenSasse and @ChrisStirewalt #notdeadyet
My name from the palms of his hands
Eternity will not erase;
Impressed on his heart it remains,
In marks of indelible grace.
Yes, I to the end shall endure,
As sure as the earnest is giv'n;
More happy, but not more secure,
The glorified spirits in heav'n.

Anyone know what @Brett_A_Taylor thinks of the pitcher win statistic? I've been reading @BleacherNation and following on twitter for years and can't remember if he's mentioned it. @Michael_Cerami, do you know? Anyone? (Also wondering about his take on the sacrifice bunt.)
What will be the main influence on you today?
The internet/online influencer/social media or the Word of God?
Try giving that other person the benefit of the doubt.
Think the best of them.
You *might* just have a better day.
A prayer in the morning.
O Lord, who has brought us through the darkness of night to the light of morning, and who by thy Holy Spirit dost illumine the darkness of ignorance and sin:
We beseech thee of thy loving-kindness to pour thy holy light into our souls,
