7 3 Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; 4 so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel around his waist. 5 After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him.

6 He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, “Lord, are you going to wash my feet?”

17 Notes on painting:
In the last decade of his life Veronese painted a major cycle of religious pictures made up of ten oblong canvases of equal size inspired by stories from the Old and New Testament, known to scholars as the Duke of Buckingham series, after the name of the nobleman who owned them in the early seventeenth century. The canvases, now divided among the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, which has seven of them, the National Gallery in Washington (one) and the Narodni Galerie in Prague (two), were probably intended for a convent. They are the following: Lot and his Daughters Leaving Sodom, Hagar in the Wilderness, Rebecca at the Well, Susanna and the Elders, Esther and Ahasver, Adoration of the Shepherds, Christ and the Centurion, Christ and the Adulteress, Christ and the Woman of Samaria, and Christ Washing the Feet of the Disciples.

The striking feature of the series, to which the canvas Christ Washing the Feet of the Disciples belongs, is the unusual monumentality of the figures, most of them located in the foreground.

97 I can look at Veronese paintings for hours taking in the use of light, color, and the exquisite details. The scene itself is secondary to his artistic talent. Each person's expression and posture is individual as is their clothing. Look at the way he captures the folds in the cloth, the sheen in glassware and metal, The colors are appropriate for the level of light: subdued in this image but brilliant in the Wedding at Cana.

That this painting looks like a Middle Ages Italian taverna instead of Israel is unimportant.

Story says in middle school there was no girls team. She asked if she can start ones and she was told “play with dolls instead”.

She is 27. Which means middle school would have been around 2010, 2011. There is a 0% probability anyone in any school would have said something like that to a girl in the 2010s.

They never stop inventing racism or sexism.

If I were a teacher at her middle school I’d sue her for defamation.

In a dual survey of California voters and political professionals who are driving the state’s agenda, the electorate is strikingly more likely to want a detente with the White House. Voters are also more divided on issues like immigration and climate change, where Gov. Gavin Newsom and Democratic state lawmakers have asserted progressive ambitions that rebuff the president’s agenda.

Don't accept 45 more months. Work to end it sooner.

Seeing almost no improvement in the amount of arch collapse (post-op), he said, "Hmmm. Well, I guess some people were just meant to be flat-footed," then turned on his heels and left the room.

After picking my jaw up off the floor I left and never went back. What a total jerk..

Half right, the other half of Christ's message is to repent and prepare to face judgment for what you have done on earth.

Modern Christianity doesn't like to mention this stuff (witness the insipid He Gets Us advert campaign). Judgment for sinners and saints with just deserts following and bound less love for those that repent and follow his way. So we have a choice.

189 On April 17, 1970, Apollo 13 astronauts James A. Lovell, John L. “Jack” Swigert and Fred W. Haise splashed down in the Pacific Ocean 600 miles southeast of American Samoa, successfully concluding a six-day mission that nearly ended by disaster. Two days after launch and 205,000 miles from Earth on their way to the Moon, the explosion of an oxygen tank in their Service Module robbed their Command Module (CM) Odyssey of power and oxygen. The astronauts took refuge in the Lunar Module Aquarius, and through judicious conservation of resources and expert guidance from the teams at Mission Control, the spacecraft designed to support two men for two days kept three men alive for four. A movie and several books relate the story of this challenging mission which has been described as a “successful failure.”

OMG. This is almost exactly like Blue Origin’s flight with Sanchez, Perry, King and the other two rocket scientists/dingbats.

204 Happy Triduum (sundown today through sundown Easter sunday).

Go to Costco. Buy boneless leg of lamb. Go home. Take olive oil, lemon juice, garlic crushed, rosemary fresh crushed with pestle, place in large zip lock, with three table spoons of salt. Zip and shake. Pepper the lamb generously put in zip lock close and let marinade in fridge 4 hours to overnight. Grill on actual grill using quality oak or hickory lump charcoal. Green egg style grill works great. Serve with pita, grilled onions and tadziki. It is like meat candy...

Their problem is that they are losing the yutes as they move toward the Right. Where the yutes go is where the society is moving and it is moving away from them. Old farts on the left and criminals are not a sound basis to build a revolutionary army because they are too fond of their comforts and own hide. At most, they might pull off a time of troubles with bombings, etc. that will make their side even more repellent to normal people.

They should blame their own cheating in 2020 and Hubris afterwards for causing Nemesis (Trump) to return to haunt them after 2024.

215 If you are the praying type, from the tech thread.

Update on my wife:

She is in the premier medical hospital in Kansas KU Med in Kansas City. She is uncomfortably in the center of a plethora of tubes and wires, with numerous monitors and capturing every bodily function and hick-up. This is her fourth medical institution since it all started last Thursday.

No decision on surgery yet. The unfixable damage she has incurred since being put in medical hands (from her worn out circulatory system) gives her, at best, a 38% chance of dying during the operation.

Her humanity seems lost in the invasive technology. I wonder if the promise of feeling better can be reached at this point.

She is 130 miles away. I leave from home soon.

242 Boggles the mind how Jesus loves us so much that he would wash even the feet of His betrayer.
Lohn 13: 4He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself.
5After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded.
6Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?
7Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.
8Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.
9Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.
10Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all.
11For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean.
12So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?
13Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.

Knowing what we do about Big Pharma, it is entirely possible that they are medicating themselves for non-existent disorders and actually making their mental health worse.

Especially true if they drink or do street drugs in addition to their drug treatment.

Drug interactions are a stone cold bitch and often a problem in elderly when their multiple doctors prescribe medications that interact in unpredictable ways with others that they are taking.

Had to deal with that issue with my FIL. He wanted a pill to fix any ill and got overmedicated as a result.

267 The Disciples look a little shifty. However, it's an excellent choice for the Art Thread on Holy Thursday. Thanks.

AI Overview: Jesus washed his disciples' feet during the Last Supper, which occurs on Holy Thursday.

This event is recounted in the Gospel of John. During the Last Supper, Jesus arose from the table, took off his outer garments, and began to wash his disciples' feet. He then tied a towel around his waist and began to wash their feet, drying them with the towel around his waist.

This act of humility and service is a central part of the Holy Thursday liturgy and a reminder of Jesus' example of love and service. The Gospel reading for Holy Thursday, John 13:1-15, reveals this event and its significance. The washing of the feet is also a symbolic act that points to the need for Christian charity and service to one another.
