TIL that the day after LBJ was elected president in '64, Dorothy Day wrote two words in her journal: "Johnson elected"--and moved on. National politics matter, but we spend a disordinate amount of energy, time, and money on it, at the expense of direct and local engagement.

An ND prof thought the fact that I was basically living out of a car when we met (b/c I had recently come back from a stint abroad and didn't have my own digs yet and was staying w/ friends) was a plus b/c it meant I'd be open to moving to South Bend. We got married a month ago.

Ralph Martin and Eduardo Echeverria both confirmed to the Register that they've been fired from their posts at Sacred Heart seminary in Detroit. Echeverria said he was given no reason, and Martin said he'll have a statement forthcoming.

It seems like the sole ethical condisderation relevant to the policy priorities laid out here is "China is bad."

Reading an essay by Card. Marc Ouellet in a new @IgnatiusPress collection of his views on synodality. It's fairly anodyne, which really makes his intervention below on the primacy of the universal Church v the local Churches really stick out. Seems he thinks this is the crux.
