Good Morning Digital Neighbors! Happy Sunday ADD Irregulars and Vagabonds of the Weird Shit Niche'! Hello again Friends, Refugees, Early Birds & Later Dayers, Conversants and Lurkers, Phamily & Dawn Patrol, Triggeratti, Fascinating People and Beautiful Bigots, Seekers of Civility and Sanity and finally all of you Quarterlings that have been added to the mix of those I mingle among on Locals. @-Padre's is home, but I sure appreciate all the communities that Local's has attracted and fostered. I have a a sense of gratitude for @DaveRubin and the Rubin Report for starting this chapter of social media and making it the most enjoyable experience of it yet.

I enjoy longer visits at Locals in the morning and I make my various posts in neighboring communities, like the content I encounter, leave comments and pilfer memes, usually after the Coffee Talks I tend to be away from most of Locals except Padre's. I try to shepherd that community as well as I can and I am thank for all of the fine souls that have found their way there. During the rest of my waking, off-line hours I try my best to shepherd my parish family at Immaculate Heart of Mary in New Melle ( pronounced Mellie by the locals, not Mel) 😉 Farm livin' is the life for me. Land spreadin' out so far and wide Keep Manhattan, just give me that countryside. 😉

For all those at the Report & Phetasy, one of my most frequent habits is to post quotes and offer my commentary, ramblings and ruminations. Oftentimes my curmudgeon streak appears as I crab about the WOKE, CRT, "Everything is Wacism", Herdfeel, Groupthink and other modern manifestations of collective mental illness. I try to temper that with humor, gratitude and occasionally waking up the more reflective portion of my brain. Triggernometry was often spared such post and I just shared Far Side cartoons and comments. With the addition of the Quartering I have pivoted the Far Side there and now both Triggernometry & Tulsi (recently rejoined all those Seekers) 😁 get the morning ruminations. It seems a bit redundant to post the same thing in 5 communities, but I have always thought that is the best way to get to know me as a neighbor. I wander Locals as a neighbor among neighbors, not seeking converts to my flock, but always mindful of two things in my life, I am Tom (an inescapable reality and often an frustration to the Master) and I am a shepherd of souls. Many I tend to at the parish, and some I try to assist here. I was recently given a kind compliment by one of our neighbors on Locals who called me a shepherd for the spiritually homeless. ❤️‍🔥

Anyways, enough about me and my walking among you. Off to two of my favorite quotes by G. K. Chesterton. Have a great day neighbors, those I know & love, those I know and appreciate, and those I've yet to meet and add to the list of good neighbors. Happy Sunday to all!
