For a hot second I thought this was from The Prince of Egypt. Which would be incredibly fitting 😊

Another WIP but this time it’s Mary Magdalene

Still there’s a little glitch I need to fix

Just watched season 5, ep 6 of The Chosen (yeah took me long enough - mom and I have been rewatching eps 1-5 after seeing them in theaters) and OH boy. So many thoughts, particularly about Caiaphas of all people! But I will wait to give my run-down on character arcs in this show (so far) once I finish season 5. I HATE avoiding the show tag for so long, despite being a little spoiled anyway, but we're getting there. I will definitely be caught up before the end of next week.

I just woke up and I saw this and I’m like AHHHHHHHHH

[angedemystere]

callout for every single member of the continental congress

for being a rogue, a rascal, a villain, a thief, a scoundrel, and a mean, dirty, stinking, sniveling, sneaking, pimping, pocket-picking, thrice double-damned no-good son of a bitch

1776: a musical about the founder fathers making dick jokes and sexting their wives

[angedemystere]

Freaking love the musical 1776, and it sure is getting to be that time of year again~ (doesn’t hurt that I’ve finally bought the DVD) SIT DOWN JOHN.

Wow I can’t believe that on today, July the 4th, ben franklin struck the ground with his miraculous lightning rod and out sprung george washington, fully grown, and on his horse, and together, the three of them, washington, franklin, and the horse, conducted the entire revolution all by themselves

St. Thomas is just like me for real, because if the man I called Rabbi and believed to be the Messiah died in a truly traumatic way, if one of my close friends committed suicide, if the rest of my friends were grieving, then of course I'd go out and try to find food and manage the finances and try to be somewhat helpful. If I came back and my grieving friends told me that they saw our Rabbi, of course I wouldn't believe them. I saw Him die. They're in grief. I'm trying to do the best I can with what little I know.

And if the Risen Christ came back just for me, because He loves me enough to not only rebuke my lack of faith, but to also to renew it? To not only show me His wounds, but also to touch them? What else am I supposed to say but, "my Lord and my God"?

I'm a horrible fan. I forgot today (7/1) is Jonathan Roumie's birthday 😭

[angedemystere]

I took my little brother (autistic, mostly non verbal) out and he was using his voice keyboard to tell me something, and this little boy (maybe 4 or 5?) heard him and asked me "Is he a robot??" I tried to explain to him that no, he isn't a robot, he just communicates differently, but my darling brother was in the background max volume "I am robot I am robot I am robot I am robot"

I didn't realize playing Monopoly could turn into roleplaying a Jane Austen campaign

I never play Monopoly anymore because the last time I did was with old childhood friends, all of whom were children of businessmen. I have never felt so deeply as I did then the weight of capitalism

I'm no Mission Impossible fangirl (haven't even seen all the movies, which I'd like to amend at some point) and I don't doubt there's a butt ton of discourse on Ethan Hunt's relationships with women. But I have to say, Ethan's dynamic with Grace in DR and FR surprised me. You can't really be sure what they feel for each other beyond simply love. Is it romantic? Platonic? Something in between they don't want to bother defining bc they're fine with it as is? And you know what? Good for them

[angedemystere]

Me seeing reaction posts about bts or spoilerly details for The Chosen on social media I don't use & being mad that I don't have an account but also being too petty to make an account

[angedemystere]

Do you think when Jesus said, "You shall not commit murder in your heart," he was also referring to those moments when your computer logs out or crashes for no reason and you think, "I'm going to commit murder"?

JONATHAN ROUMIE in THE CHOSEN: Season 4, Episode 1: Promises

Keriah, the rending of garments by the mourner prior to the funeral service, "is the most striking Jewish expression of grief.”

—Rabbi Maurice Lamm, The Jewish Way in Death and Mourning

And he recognized it and said, “It is my son’s tunic. A wild beast has devoured him. Without doubt Joseph is torn to pieces.” Then Jacob tore his clothes, put sackcloth on his waist, and mourned for his son many days.

Genesis 37:33–34, NKJV

Therefore David took hold of his own clothes and tore them, and so did all the men who were with him. And they mourned and wept and fasted until evening for Saul and for Jonathan his son, for the people of the Lord and for the house of Israel, because they had fallen by the sword.

2 Samuel 1:11–12, NKJV

"They are dead; and I alone have escaped to tell you!” Then Job arose, tore his robe, and shaved his head; and he fell to the ground and worshiped.

Job 1:19–20, NKJV
