Our recent blog post about the relationship (or not) between em dashes and AI generated a side conversation about how to format em dashes. AP style calls for a space on both sides of a dash in all uses except the start of sports agate summaries. We appreciate that AP style fans…

We’re being played. Social media algorithms and America’s friendship deficit push people to impulsively post emotion-driven thoughts online. Careers ruined. Hoodwinked and duped, all for strangers’ approval. Rant to your friends, not the world.

Not to add to the discourse, but… It’s ‘toe the line,’ not ‘tow the line.’ It’s ‘free rein,’ and not ‘free reign.’ It’s ‘eke out,’ not ‘eek out.’ It’s ‘sleight of hand,’ not ‘slight of hand.’ It's ‘Anchors aweigh,’ and not ‘Anchor's away!’

The problem isn't that people are uninformed. They know and they don't care. I spent years of my social media life screaming into a void. Now I am trying as best as I can to build things that will last and write long form work that I hope encourages weary believers.

Doug Wilson’s “church” is a sub-Christian cult built around one guy who was never properly trained in ministry and theology.

Hi. This is idolatrous, horrible eisegesis. It is taking the Lord’s name in vain. This verse is in the context of God calling Isaiah to address the syncretism and corruption of his day. It mocks the Word of God.

Respectfully, as a pastor-theologian, using Isaiah 6:8 in this context is blasphemy! Delete this immediately. This is an abuse of Bible.

Marco Rubio in March 2016: “For years to come, there are many people on the right, in the media and voters at large, that are going to be having to explain and justify how they fell into this trap of supporting Donald Trump.”

It’s all right, never alright. Hyphenate only if used colloquially as a compound modifier: He is an all-right guy.

On this date in 1938 Carnegie Hall opened its doors to Benny Goodman and his Orchestra, the outcome being the most influential concert in American Jazz history. (Special kudos to drummer Gene Krupa).

If opening doors for other people to walk through and thrive is your greatest joy you will not be sad often. Exaltation makes the heart happy for a moment Humility makes the heart happy for a life

I asked Bucs rookie WR and former Washington standout Jalen McMillan about the duck that flew onto the field before the Bucs blocked a punt and returned it for a touchdown: "It was one of the bad moments of the game. Ducks aren't good luck, they're weird. I hate ducks" 😂

We hyphenate modifiers for clarity. A "large-animal veterinarian" might be different from a "large animal veterinarian." You do not need a hyphen after an ‘ly’ adverb. For example, it’s a "closely watched news story" not a "closely-watched news story."
