Josh Freese, batteur des Foo Fighters depuis 2023, a annoncé son départ du groupe. Le groupe de rock belge Machiavel s'apprête à célébrer son demi-siècle d'existence en beauté en sortant une nouvelle version de son tube emblématique "Fly", en collaboration avec le chanteur Jasper Steverlinck. Le Festival de Cannes a vibré au rythme de Bono vendredi dernier avec la projection du film "Stories of Surrender". Shane Hawkins, fils du regretté Taylor Hawkins des Foo Fighters, s'apprête à prendre la route cet été avec Chevy Metal, le groupe de reprises fondé par son père en 2013. Le chanteur Bono a profité de sa venue au Festival de Cannes pour échanger avec le magazine Rolling Stones à propos de ce que les fans peuvent attendre pour la suite. Suede confirme son retour avec un nouvel album complet "Antidepressants" attendu pour le 5 septembre, une ambiance post-punk qui évoque la paranoïa, l'anxiété et la névrose.

With all of this training of the heart and mind, shouldn't we be getting somewhere? I feel like at least we should have something to show for all the hard work.And yet the great teachers all say the same thing: there's no place to get to and no one to become. There's only the journey of cultivation and letting go. There's only learning to love and slipping up; learning to be more generous and then forgetting; learning patience, losing it, and remembering, again and again and again.No problem, no hurry, nowhere to get to and no one to become.

Festival Project A Saga S Ū P A © R E E ™ One World. | PEACE. LOVE. UNITY. RESPECT. | Lifelong friends navigate the infinitely incredible world of rave culture, journeying together (and sometimes, apart) into the PLUniveRse© in fantastical, philosophical, and third-eye-opening adventures--the likes of which have never been seen (or foretold.) Festival Project™ is a multi-genre, mystifying and magical cross-genre series, set against the backdrop of modern rave culture-- combined with historical and futuristic elements-- across expansions of space-and-time, unifying with The Universal Consciousness in a multidimensional and explorative ensemble of Films, Episodic Series, Music Videos, Extended Playlists, and Concept Albums. A perpetual symphony of artistic storytelling though a cavalcade of wonderful and whimsical characters along high-intensity, off-the-map adventures--showcased through Music, Film & Interactive Art Explorations--set upon the dreamlike actual reality of an unravelling fabric of time-and-space. Enter The Multiverse: Anything Is Possible. This explosive and expansive wave of enigmatic, chaos-colliding, charismatic [ and often comedic] kinetic energy, reflects a shared experience throughout all time in human connection; Journey beyond the unknown, to Worlds Within--and Without. Everything is Everything. The Festival Project Saga is a multi-media Music, Film and Television saga that offers a new perspective on the ever-changing and recently popularized culture of dance music; it touches on the history of the culture as a whole, as well as a variety of other societal issues this generation faces—friendship, connectivity, communication—the dawn of social media, America's education system and justice system, immigration, and emerging mental health and drug crisis—while also taking a look at a history of counter culture as a derivative of the rapidly evolving technology of today's society. Through its characters and storylines, we dive deeply into a conglomerate of generational growth and exponentially educational topics, lightheartedly touching tales of friendship, family through blood and through bond, and exploring fields, of Astrology, Philosophy. Festival Trip- Two lifelong friends take a two-week-long trip across the country, to attend two major music festivals—one on the west coast (Among Aliens, in California), and one on the east (Ultimate Music Festival) Chava Hoffs Sala Emillio Gunther Ross- The more than interesting circus-act of a plug/one of Sala's romantic interests, who just happens to be in the same place at the same time, once Sala and Chava arrive in California. Solomon Dominguez- Chava's “homie-lover-friend”, a DC native transplanted to LA who hustles and bustles the 3-job life to live the California dream—a surprisingly dedicated and loyal friend to Chava, who considers him the “king of fuckboys”—which, is not entirely untrue. Johnny McEntire- An eclectic and friendly photographer who stumbles upon Sala during a vulnerable moment—a sweet, humble, and vibrant personality, Chava mostly dismisses him as just another victim of Sala's constantly-inconstant romantic gestures and affiliations. Grace Williams (Chava's Super-Christian (but very sweet) Aunt) Billy Williams- Chava's very dorky, southern Baptist uncle who can't help but throw in a (praise-jesus) Krista DeVaunte- Bride-To-Be—Noah's Fiance Noah Williams- Chava's Cousin, the groom to be Naomi Williams- Chava's salty Cousin, and freinemy since birth—Noah's younger sister Sonny Johnson— Chava's ex-fiance Dustin Roberts—Sala's ex-boyfriend Juan Manuel Jose Melendez Gutierrez-Rodriguez—Sala's current boyfriend, with whom she lives & works with. Running Jokes: -Ridiculous DJ names and Absurd Fictional Festivals -Speaking Spanish with a Mandarin-inflenced dialect—speaking/yelling in awful Spanish-sounding-Mandarin—speaking “Mandarish” or “Spandarin” -Every time Chava mentions Sonny (her ex), Sala interjects with “Fuck Sonny!” -Cop Jokes (due to Chava's occupation) “Go climb broke-bitch mountain!” ACT I- The Wedding Bashers/It's Festival Season “Save-The-Date” Inciting Incident—Plans to attend a destination wedding that Chava and her lifelong. long- distance best friend Sala, have been planning for almost a year are abruptly halted when Chava learns via a very eventful FaceTime call (‘Meet The Williams') that her +1 invitation had apparently only applied to her now-ex-fiance [whom her stuck-up family adored because of his abhorrent Christianity], and that the bride-to-be would not allow Sala to take his place on the guest list—as her vivid memories of Sala from Chava's engagement party are severely grotesque. Flashback: Chava + Sonny's engagement party. Chava: Yeah dude, they got all, mad-butthurt that I was bringing you instead of Sonny. Sala: Fuck Sonny! [The Break-Up] Sala: FUCK YOUR BIRTHDAY! CHAVA: I'M SURE YOU WOULD IF YOU COULD, IF MY BIRTHDAY HAD A PENIS. Sala: YOUR BIRTHDAY DOES HAVE A PENIS—IT'S YOU, DICK. CHAVA: THEN SUCK ME, SALLY MAE. SALA: YOU WISH, WANDA. CHAVA: Can't make a wish with no fucking candles, Kandace. SALA: Huh. I would have thought there were candles just judging by hard you fucking BLOW, Bonnie! CHAVA: Then drive off cliff, Clyde. A remote, unnamed city near the North Pole, in the Alaskan Arctic Circle. It is severely cold, even visually so. ACT II- Sunny California ACT III- Sunny Florida In the scene where random ravers find Sala's backpack in the parking lot, debut Rave Dora [Backpack SupaCreeMixx] “I'm a backpack loaded up with things and Knick-knacks too—anything that you might need, I got inside for you...” Festival Trip One-Liners/ Slang/ Phrases Keep up, Kassandra Hold Up, Heather Be back, Becky Back up, Barbra Shut up, Susan/ Shut Up Sandra/ Shut Up Sharon/ Sit Down, Sally Shove It, Shelly Stop It, Stella Chill, Chelsea Cheer Up, Charlie (a reference to Willy Wonka) Get out my biz, Liz Really Billy? Excerpt, Act III Chava: Dude, your energy is killing me. Sala: So. Chava: Soo, fix it. Sala: What do I look like—Bob the Builder? Chava: More like Wreck-It-Ralphed-All-Over-Yourself Sala: Fuck you. Chava: Off limits. I'm the last person on earth you haven't fucked. Sala: Jealous? Chava: Of the super-massive black-hole that is your vagina? No. I just wish my camera had a better low-light filter so I had actual photographic proof of an 8th world wonder. Sala: …fuck you. Chava: ‘No' Means ‘No'. [blows whistle] Get up. Sala: Ahhhhh—Get fucked! Chava: I was—and you ruined it being a hoe—but I'm willing to look past that, because its a beautiful fucking day in Miami and we're about to get lit. C'mon. S'day one. Sala: Day 1 of rave 2, I'm over it. Chava: Hoe, I'm over you. Sala: Get over me, then, bitch— Chava: I already said I am. Get with it. Sala: Get with this dick. Chava: What's a dick without some balls, bro? Pussy. Sala: … Chava: You mad? Sala: I been mad. Chava: Stay mad, then. Sala: How about I just stay here. Chava: Pay here, stay here, bitch—this trip ain't free. Sala: This trip ain't me. Raves are your thing. I'm not a “festival chick.” Chava: You are for the next three days. Sala: …Three…?! Chava: And counting. Get. Some. Motherfuckin' balls. Here, have some Jesus Juice. [She extends her arm, holding the bottle in front of Sala] Sala: Ughhh. Chava: Come on, man. I'm tryna see Cow Turds. Sala: You're engaged to one. Chava: Shut the fuck up and drink. Here, I'll have one with you. The Epic Trip – ‘Girl—Meet World'. After breaking up with both her ex-fiance and her best friend, a depressed and anxious Chava decides to take a last-minute trip to another one of her bucket list destinations: The Epic Music Festival in Las Vegas, Nevada. F*ckFest: The Origins (Prequel) 21-year-old Chava Hoffs, a longtime raver and lover of all things dance culture, finally convinces her bar-scene best friend to accompany her to a regional event in her area, ‘F*ckfest', Sala's first ever festival/rave where—to both her and Chava's surprise, she connects with other longtime friends she had no idea were immersed into the culture. Sala, having been “rave-retired” since entering her first serious relationship, becomes overly-excited and branches off on her own, reconnecting with her true self after spending too long in her own shell—she discovers her love for an up-and-coming new artist (‘Shluggy') who magnetizes her with a newly-created sound (‘PukeRock'—a play on “VomitStep”) Vibes [Mini Series, Prequel]- A sequel-in-installments to the shenanigans following F*ckfest, where Chava returns to visit Sala and return to ‘one of her favorite venues', which now hosts GoF*ckYourself (GFY), the biggest summertime festival in the region. Festival Trip II [First Sequel ]- It's been a magical year and the breakup is over; A 20-something's imaginary friend returns, a decade after disappearing, just as she finds herself on the brink of ‘real adulthood', and has settled into the mundane and mediocre—as he leads her on a journey of self-discovery, she internally struggles with whether to tell her therapist—after deciding (or rather, being convinced) she shouldn't, she begins a desperate search for answers in what seems like a downward spiral into (Use- I'm on my way to heaven, for trailer.) A group of friends decide to form their own society after discovering an “uncharted” island—what they don't know [understand] is that the world government is observing at every angle—and as their population increases, they struggle as the popularity of their culture and lifestyle explode— Craig's world- an ensemble about the good old days of craigslist Ū [Amnesia/Working Title] Miami (Ami) A fashion designer and music enthusiast who attends festivals in her spare time, seeking inspiration for her fashion and design blog; she shares an apartment with her lesbian best friend from college, who works as a freelance writer and photographer. Crystal (Chrys) A short-haired-yet-feminine gender-non-conforming lovable with a dry sense of humor and an eye for art; Music lover and fan of festivals, Miami's “convert” into the rave world. Serra- A high-matinence instagram model who supports herself through social media promotion and influencing, modeling Miami's fashion line and sugar-babying/arm-candying to make her way through life, usually attending festivals as someone's date or just to take pictures/show face. Samuel/Donnie- Sensei Samurai: An award-winning world-renowned music artist and specialty DJ, the soul-headliner of ‘Magic's Mountain art and Music Festival' Daz- Sam/Donnie's Manager- (Antagonist) Lazers, pyrotechnics, strobes, and confetti light the night sky as Sensei Samurai, a medium-build white guy sporting two long braids and a samurai cut (his signature style), dances atop the table which supports a state-of-the-art DJ set-up; The stage is massive, the crowd is wild--but he is at home--or rather, at work, and at the top of his game. He jumps down from the table, drinking from a red solo cup, before he picks up the microphone to speak to his audience: Samuel: LET ME SEE YOU FUCKING JUMP. He dances around, flailing his arms to gesture to the crowd, drinking again from his red solo cup . He moves to the beat of the music as he focuses to adjust the mixer, structuring a build-up. His manager watches from backstage, carefully eying his every move. Samuel: --ARE YOU GUYS READY? [He lights a ciggarette, sips from his cup again as he continues to mix. He nods along to the beat, grooving as he plots his next move, looking into the crowd with hunger in his eye.] Dez: (speaking into a earpiece) Sammy, take it easy... [He glances stage left, to where Dez is situated and watching him like a hawk; He nonchalantly shrugs, blowing out a plume of smoke into the air, decisively irritated with the instruction.] Dez: (Cont'd): I mean it, chill. [Samuel sticks his finger into his ear, wiggling it profusely--and dislodges the hidden inner-earpiece, eyeing Dez as he pulls up his headphones, deep in the mix; He takes a long drag from his ciggarette, master-minding as he feverously twists the knobs and dials of the mixer.] Samuel (over the mic) NO CHILL MOTHERFUCKERS. [The music speeds as he prepares for the drop.] Dez: (forgetting momentarily that he will not be heard) Sam, don't--! [Too late. Samuel Drops the bass so hard, it hurts, ripping off his headphones and running straight into the crowd, head first to crowd surf. The crowd goes massively, insanely wild.] Through the lens of Crystal's camera, we see a series of still photos, capturing Sam's wild plunge into the crowd, just off-center in the front row. Miami looks to her right, giving her a nod of approval; Crystal shoots her a hand signal for “ok”. Miami looks to her left, lifting an eyebrow and smirking at Serra, who bounces off-beat against a tall wooky gentleman who has his arms around her through the sleeves of a spirit hood, tilting her head from side to side as she poses for selfies. Miami happily sways to the motion of the music, putting one hand over the rail and pulling up her mask with the other, as she watches Samuel be lifted back onto the stage and take his place behind the decks. The set continues, the crowd, the lazers, and the effects go wild: The backdrop reads ‘SENSEI SAMURAI' His backup dancers are acrobatic ninjas. Samuel: Thank you Magical Mountain, I Love You Guys!! The crowd goes wild as Samuel exits the stage, ignoring Dez as he breezes past him. Dez: (following after him) I thought I said, “No more crowd surfing, no more stage diving.” Samuel: I thought you said that, too. Dez: Do you recall “OhMyLanta?” Samuel: (sarcastically) Oh, you mean that festival in Atlanta? Dez: Yes. Samuel: How creative. Dez: ‘Creative' would describe the legal team's very expensive, very strenuous tactical strategy which weaseled you out of a very serious lawsuit. Samuel: What? When was this? Dez: This was when you decided to stage dive wearing goth-pants and your chains got stuck in that kid's earholes Samuel: They're called Tripp pants. Dez: Oh yeah...what do you call them after mutilating a teenager with them? Samuel: Tripp pants I can sell on eBay. I made that kid a star. Dez: You made him a cripple. Samuel: --we still talk. [EXT. A FARAWAY FOREST] Bass blasts through the christmas-lit forest, a festival set in the meadow against the lush and natural forest scenery; Attendees come-and-go to-and-from the lines of tents and out into the festival grounds, where DJs headline stages, dancers and performers interact with spectators, vendors practice their unique salesmanship, and the wild and true nature of ravers is unleashed. Frozen breath leaks from the laughing mouths of three young individuals, running through the forest; Twigs crush and leaves crackle underfoot of their prancing and galloping feet, clad in combat boots, tennis shoes, and platforms, respectively. Ripped fishnets hug the thighs that sweep together rapidly, swooshing as the legs that bare them race forward; a pashmina trails behind one's back, acting as a cape of sorts. A thud, in the darkness of the forest. Crystal and Serra continue forward, unaware their friend has fallen for a few short moments, leaving Miami behind. Miami confusedly looks for the obstruction which caused her to trip, discovering under a pile of brush and leaves, a man (Samuel) lying face down on the ground; her eyes widen and she draws slightly back, frightened, before squinting and leaning in to get a closer look; She turns on a glow toy for added light, she pants heavily under her breath, shaking slightly as she brushes away debris and leaves, uncovering his head and shoulders, revealing he is wearing a mask. She examines him. His glasses are broken, lying on the ground under his face--His hair is wet; he appears dead. Crystal: ...I told you not to wear those. Miami: Yo… Crystal: Yo--*gasps* (she grabs Serra by the shoulder, holding her back.) Serra: (She notices the body, under her pashmina, spirit hood, and glasses) Ohwhatthefuck. (she takes a few steps back) Crystal: Don't move. Serra: Yeah, fuck that. Fuck this. (she wraps the pashmina tightly around her face) [muffled] Fuck this. Crystal: ...Ami, we should get out of here. Miami: We should help him. Crystal: He may be beyond help, honey. Serra: He's fucking dead. Whatthefuck. Fuck this! Crystal: ...Is he dead? Miami: (she looks at him closely, there are no signs of life. she checks for breathing with her hand.) ...I don't know. (she checks again, leaning in closer. she grabs his wrist to check a pulse) Serra: Don't touch it! Miami: Shut up, I'm trying to get a pulse (beat) ...he's super cold. Serra: He's super dead! Miam: No, no...I don't think so. Crystal, come here--help me turn him over. Crystal: Are you sure? What if he--wakes up and tries to--?? Miami: (urgently) What if it was you? Crystal fishes for a flashlight and switchblade in her fanny pack, places the flashlight in her mouth and positioning the knife under her kandi cuffs. She cautiously inches forward. Crystal: Serra, try to get some cell service so we can call for help. The girls carefully turn him onto his back, wide eyed and bewildered. He is completely lifeless, clamy and pale--covered with dirt, and forestry. Miami continues to check for a pulse, shaking her head as he continues to appear dead. Crystal: Do you feel anything? Miami: …(shaking her head) I can't...he's like…(as she pulls up the sleeve of his hoodie and notices a familiar tattoo. she pauses for a moment, thinks, and then looks towards his head) Do you still have my mirror in your fanny pack?) Crystal returns to her fanny pack, digging for the mirror. Miami carefuly leans in towards the man, examining him once more; she notices a necklace, also familiar--she thinks, as she moves to remove first the excess hair, and then the mask from his face, very carefully. She peels off his mask, immidiately shocked as she reckognizes his face--It is Samuel, who she knows as Sensai Samurai. She yeeps (imploded gasp, making Crystal look up; she, too recognizes him; she gasps. They look at eachother, then at him--then back to eachother.) Miami: ...Give me your mirror. Crystal: Dude, is this…? Miami: Your mirror. (she holds the mirror under his nose--a subtle cloud of fog appears; he is, in fact, alive.) Crystal: Oh, my God. Miami: He's breathing. Serra! Crystal: ...This is Sensai Samurai. Miami: (trying to convince herself) It probably just looks like him…. Crystal: I just took one-hundred close-up photos, dude--like, less than an hour ago-- Miami: Shhhhh! (she frantically begins to check his pockets) He's gotta have a wallet. Crystal: What, you were going to save him--now you wanna roll him? Miami: An ID. He's got to have an ID. (she frantically searches him) Hey Serra! (Crystal lifts the other sleeve of his sweater, revealing a brightly colored wristband, and one singular kandi bracelet, which reads “Sensai” Simoltaneously, Miami has found something in one of the pockets--she produces a small box from one of the pockets of his cargo pants) Crystal: Holy fuck. Look. (she gestures the wrist band and bracelet.) Miami: ...Artist's wristband. Fuck. It is him. Crystal: [Samuel is slumped lifelessly over both Crystal and Miami's shoulders, head hanging downward and hair flailing and dangling in his face as the girls struggle to support him. His oversized light-up sunglasses begin slipping, almost revealing his eyes.] Girl:(looking over, concerned) ...Is your friend okay? [He is clearly not. Serra slides her finger up his nose to adjust his glasses, eyeing the girl suspiciously.] Crystal: [flatly] Yes. [Samuel's dead-weight pulls him towards the ground, as he slips; the girls struggle to readjust; he seems heavier by the minute. They all three stare back at the girl, awkwardly; Miami fakes an ‘everything's fine' smile, while Crystal stares blankly through her sunglasses and Serra shoots a look of dissatisfaction. [INT. KITCHEN. DAY.] The three girls gaze in awe of Donnie, multitasking busily in the kitchen, hair pinned neatly atop his head with chopsticks, wearing a neatly-pressed (as in, freshly ironed) apron, as he removes one baking mit with his mouth and works about, happily consumed and bouncily, humming. -...He's so...domestic. Crystal -You'd think he'd carry a better tune. Miami- Cause you'd be belting melodies after waking up out of a drug-induced coma? Crystal- No--I guess I'd open a bake shop in some random girls' kitchen. Miami: Donnie? Donnie: Hmm, yes? Miami: We...we have some news for you. Donnie: Oooh! Is it celebrity news? Miami:...sort of. Donnie: I hope it's juicy gossip. Crystal: Believe me--it'll be the talk of the town. Donnie: This town? Crystal: Any town. [ She refills her wine glass first, then prepares two more, never breaking eye contact with donnie; His lighthearted excitement turns to slight confusion, as he furrows his brows,] Miami: (sighs, taking his hand) Here, lets sit down. Donnie: But, the macaroons-- Serra-What? That's what you're making? [Donnie nods.] Serra-...(to the side) maybe we should let him finish the macaroons, first...what if this like, fucks him all up. Miami: No, it's time. I feel like we've already waited too long. Serra-...I feel like he makes really good macaroons. Miami: Yeah? Like grammy-award-winning macaroons? -If by ‘Grammy', you mean my Grandmother would approve… Miami: Your grandmother died of complications from diabetes. Serra-...and you think macaroons had absolutely nothing to do with that? [Crystal has already finished her first glass of wine, and begins to reach for the second glass, when Miami, out of the corner of her eye, catches her, snatching the glass from her gracefully, as she floats it to Donnie, sitting beside him, crossing her legs.] Donnie: Before noon? Crystal- Oh, so you know that rule? Donnie: I know some things. A 20-something's imaginary friend returns, a decade after disappearing, just as she finds herself on the brink of ‘real adulthood', and has settled into the mundane and mediocre—as he leads her on a journey of self-discovery, she internally struggles with whether to tell her therapist—after deciding (or rather, being convinced) she shouldn't, she begins a desperate search for answers in what seems like a downward spiral into A group of friends decide to form their own society after discovering an “uncharted” island—what they don't know [understand] is that the world government is observing at every angle—and as their population increases, they struggle as the popularity of their culture and lifestyle explode— Craig's world- an ensemble about the good old days of craigslist Blue Story A wayward security officer drunkenly fills out an application to join the police academy, and is accepted—both to his surprise, and dismay. #SQUAD OUT!- A Mockumentary-Style Comedy following several “tribes”, “squads”, “rave families”, and even solo-ravers surrounding a large group of ravers and friends. Ū [Amnesia/Working Title] Amnesia [Working Title] Three girls at a camping festival find an incapacitated man in the woods and take him back to their campsite for safety—when one of the girls discovers that she recognizes the mysterious man, actually a headliner at the festival they're attending—two of the girls keep it a secret from their friend who would certainly take advantage of the situation. After discovering a “butt-load” of mind-altering substances on his person, Miami, the ring leader, makes a ‘judgement call' not to call the authorities, deciding instead to attempt to take him back to his trailer—however—when the girls haul him back to his campsite, they discover his manager, Dez, rifling through his belongings. When Samuel awakens, he has no memory of himself—and so a journey begins: a test of friendship, and a race against the clock.

Bass blasts through the christmas-lit forest, a festival set in the meadow against the lush and natural forest scenery; Attendees come-and-go to-and-from the lines of tents and out into the festival grounds, where DJs headline stages, dancers and performers interact with spectators, vendors practice their unique salesmanship, and the wild and true nature of ravers is unleashed. Frozen breath leaks from the laughing mouths of three young individuals, running through the forest; Twigs crush and leaves crackle underfoot of their prancing and galloping feet, clad in combat boots, tennis shoes, and platforms, respectively. Ripped fishnets hug the thighs that sweep together rapidly, swooshing as the legs that bare them race forward; a pashmina trails behind one's back, acting as a cape of sorts. A thud, in the darkness of the forest. Crystal and Shane continue forward, unaware their friend has fallen for a few short moments, leaving Miami behind. Miami confusedly looks for the obstruction which caused her to trip, discovering under a pile of brush and leaves, a man (Samuel) lying face down on the ground; her eyes widen and she draws slightly back, frightened, before squinting and leaning in to get a closer look; She turns on a glow toy for added light, she pants heavily under her breath, shaking slightly as she brushes away debris and leaves, uncovering his head and shoulders, revealing he is wearing a mask. She examines him. His glasses are broken, lying on the ground under his face--His hair is wet; he appears dead. Miami is horrified, speechless, breathless. Crystal: ...I told you not to wear those. Miami: Yo… Crystal: Yo--*gasps* (she grabs Shane by the shoulder, holding her back.) Shane: (She notices the body, under her pashmina, spirit hood, and glasses) Ohwhatthefuck. (she takes a few steps back) Crystal: Don't move. Serra: Yeah, fuck that. Fuck this. (she wraps the pashmina tightly around her face) [muffled] Fuck this. Crystal: ...Ami, we should get out of here. Miami: We should help him. Crystal: He may be beyond help, honey. Shane: He's fucking dead. Whatthefuck. Cystal: ...Is he dead? Miami: (she looks at him closely, there are no signs of life. she checks for breathing with her hand.) ...I don't know. (she checks again, leaning in closer. she grabs his wrist to check a pulse) Shane: Don't touch it! Miami: Shut up, I'm trying to get a pulse (beat) ...he's super cold. Shane: He's super dead! Miam: No, no...I don't think so. Crystal, come here--help me turn him over. Crystal: Are you sure? What if he--wakes up and tries to--?? Miami: (urgently) What if it was you? Crystal fishes for a flashlight and switchblade in her fanny pack, places the flashlight in her mouth and positioning the knife under her kandi cuffs. She cautiously inches forward. Crystal: Shane, try to get some cell service so we can call for help. The girls carefully turn him onto his back, wide eyed and bewildered. He is completely lifeless, clamy and pale--covered with dirt, and forestry. Miami continues to check for a pulse, shaking her head as he continues to appear dead. Crystal: Do you feel anything? Miami: …(shaking her head) I can't...he's like…(as she pulls up the sleeve of his hoodie and notices a familiar tattoo. she pauses for a moment, thinks, and then looks towards his head) Do you still have my mirror in your fanny pack?) Crystal returns to her fanny pack, digging for the mirror. Miami carefuly leans in towards the man, examining him once more; she notices a necklace, also familiar--she thinks, as she moves to remove first the excess hair, and then the mask from his face, very carefully. She peels off his mask, immidiately shocked as she reckognizes his face--It is Samuel, who she knows as Sensai Samurai. She yeeps (imploded gasp, making Crystal look up; she, too recognizes him; she gasps. They look at eachother, then at him--then back to eachother.) Miami: ...Give me your mirror. Crystal: Dude, is this…? Miami: Your mirror. (she holds the mirror under his nose--a subtle cloud of fog appears; he is, in fact, alive.) Crystal: Oh, my God. Miami: He's breathing. Shane! Crystal: ...This is Sensai Samurai. Miami: (trying to convince herself) It probably just looks like him…. Crystal: I just took one-hundred close-up photos, dude--like, less than an hour ago-- Miami: Shhhhh! (she frantically begins to check his pockets) He's gotta have a wallet. Crystal: What, you were going to save him--now you wanna roll him? Miami: An ID. He's got to have an ID. (she frantically searches him) Hey Shane! (Crystal lifts the other sleeve of his sweater, revealing a brightly colored wristband, and one singular kandi bracelet, which reads “Sensai” Simultaneously, Miami has found something in one of the pockets--she produces a small box from one of the pockets of his cargo pants) Crystal: Holy fuck. Look. (she gestures the wrist band and bracelet.) Miami: ...Artist's wristband. Fuck. It is him. Crystal: [Samuel is slumped lifelessly over both Crystal and Miami's shoulders, head hanging downward and hair flailing and dangling in his face as the girls struggle to support him. His oversized light-up sunglasses begin slipping, almost revealing his eyes.] Girl:(looking over, concerned) ...Is your friend okay? [He is clearly not. Serra slides her finger up his nose to adjust his glasses, eyeing the girl suspiciously.] Crystal: [flatly] Yes. [Samuel's dead-weight pulls him towards the ground, as he slips; the girls struggle to readjust; he seems heavier by the minute. They all three stare back at the girl, awkwardly; Miami fakes an ‘everything's fine' smile, while Crystal stares blankly through her sunglasses and Serra shoots a look of dissatisfaction. [INT. KITCHEN. DAY.] The three girls gaze in awe of Donnie, multitasking busily in the kitchen, hair pinned neatly atop his head with chopsticks, wearing a neatly-pressed (as in, freshly ironed) apron, as he removes one baking mit with his mouth and works about, happily consumed and bouncily, humming. -...He's so...domestic. Crystal -You'd think he'd carry a better tune. Miami- Cause you'd be belting melodies after waking up out of a drug-induced coma? Crystal- No--I guess I'd open a bake shop in some random girls' kitchen. Miami: Donnie? Donnie: Hmm, yes? Miami: We...we have some news for you. Donnie: Oooh! Is it celebrity news? Miami:...sort of. Donnie: I hope it's juicy gossip. Crystal: Believe me--it'll be the talk of the town. Donnie: This town? Crystal: Any town. [ She refills her wine glass first, then prepares two more, never breaking eye contact with donnie; His lighthearted excitement turns to slight confusion, as he furrows his brows,] Miami: (sighs, taking his hand) Here, lets sit down. Donnie: But, the macaroons-- Serra-What? That's what you're making? [Donnie nods.] Serra-...(to the side) maybe we should let him finish the macaroons, first...what if this like, fucks him all up. Miami: No, it's time. I feel like we've already waited too long. Serra-...I feel like he makes really good macaroons. Miami: Yeah? Like grammy-award-winning macaroons? -If by ‘Grammy', you mean my Grandmother would approve… Miami: Your grandmother died of complications from diabetes. Serra-...and you think macaroons had absolutely nothing to do with that? [Crystal has already finished her first glass of wine, and begins to reach for the second glass, when Miami, out of the corner of her eye, catches her, snatching the glass from her gracefully, as she floats it to Donnie, sitting beside him, crossing her legs.] Donnie: Before noon? Crystal- Oh, so you know that rule? Donnie: I know some things.

Grandma's Girl- A funeral turns into an accidentally epic week-long house party, after the ‘favorite grand child' becomes disappointed in the traditional send-off given by the family; While grieving and going through her late-grandmothers belongings, Serra discovers journals and an old phonebook, containing the life and times of her wildly adventurous grandma and her close friends—when she realizes that none of the people from her grandmother's life ‘before the family' are in attendance of her funeral (or even aware of her passing), she links up with her best friends to organize a ‘proper goodbye'. All heaven breaks loose, when ‘ravers of old' begin showing up to pay their respects to Silvia—things get a little out-of-hand when the gathering explodes due-to-word of mouth, as it turns out Grandma Silvia had a few more connections than expected—and they've all come from near-and-far to say their goodbyes.

Childhood best friends with Chava, I hope you're okay with the character I based off you. I'm not going to copy the story exactly (cause it's a movie, duh) so—I came up with the story that your character runs the kitchen of a classy gourmet 5-Star Chinese restaurant in Utah that has an all-Mexican staff of mostly illegals; my character is a CO at a youth correctional facility in remote Alaska—I felt like those two extremes would play funnier on camera than to replicate our actual situations.

F*ckFest: The Origins (Prequel) 21-year-old Chava Hoffs, a longtime raver and lover of all things dance culture, finally convinces her bar-scene best friend to accompany her to a regional event in her area, ‘F*ckfest', Sala's first ever festival/rave where—to both her and Chava's surprise, she connects with other longtime friends she had no idea were immersed into the culture. Sala, having been “rave-retired” since entering her first serious relationship, becomes overly-excited and branches off on her own, reconnecting with her true self after spending too long in her own shell—she discovers her love for an up-and-coming new artist (‘Shluggy') who magnetizes her with a newly-created sound (‘PukeRock'—a play on “VomitStep”) Vibes [Mini Series]- A sequel-in-installments to the shenanigans following F*ckfest, where Chava returns to visit Sala and return to ‘one of her favorite venues', which now hosts Festival Trip II- After reconciling, Chava and Sala unite again to journey to uncharted territories—after Chava is invited along as a journalist to cover artists belonging to an up-and-coming record label based in Alaska, she invites Sala as a tag-along, knowing that her “weird hoe-magic” will attract—as always—even more interesting personalities and circumstances than she could dream to on her own. Chava Hoffs Sala Emillio Gunther Ross- The more than interesting circus-act of a plug/one of Sala's romantic interests, who just happens to be in the same place at the same time, once Sala and Chava arrive in California. Solomon Dominguez- Chava's “homie-lover-friend”, a DC native transplanted to LA who hustles and bustles the 3-job life to live the California dream—a surprisingly dedicated and loyal friend to Chava, who considers him the “king of fuckboys”—which, is not entirely untrue. Johnny McEntire- An eclectic and friendly photographer who stumbles upon Sala during a vulnerable moment—a sweet, humble, and vibrant personality, Chava mostly dismisses him as just another victim of Sala's constantly-inconstant romantic gestures and affiliations.

Running Jokes: Speaking Spanish with a Mandarin-inflenced dialect—speaking/yelling in awful Spanish-soundingMandarin—speaking “Mandarish” or “Spandarin” Every time Chava mentions Sonny (her ex), Sala interjects with “Fuck Sonny!” Cop Jokes (due to Chava's occupation) ACT I- The Wedding Bashers/It's Festival Season “Save-The-Date” Inciting Incident—Plans to attend a destination wedding that Chava and her lifelong long distance best friend Sala, have been planning for almost a year are abruptly halted when Chava learns via a very eventful facetime call (‘Meet The Williams') that her +1 invitation had apparently only applied to her now-ex-fiance [whom her stuck-up family adored because of his abhorrent Christianity], and that the bride-to-be would not allow Sala to take his place on the guest list—as her vivid memories of Sala from Chava's engagement party are severly grotesque. Flashback: Chava + Sonny's engagement party. Chava: Yeah dude, they got all, mad-butthurt that I was bringing you instead of Sonny. Sala: Fuck Sonny!

Cut back to: CHAVA'S ENTRY DANCE scene ACT 1: Wedding Bashers Here we meet Chava Hoffs and Sala Emillio; Two life-long long-distance best friends who love eachother--for the most part--for better or worse. Sala (Pinky) and Chala (The Brain) are planning a tropical mexican vacation to a destination wedding Chava's been invited to as an excuse to celebrate Chava's upcoming birthday (held the same weekend as the wedding) in style--However, when Chava's exclusively classist family alerts her that her plus-one invitation only extended to her on-again-off-again fiance and absolutely excludes Sala, they desperately search for another way to escape their mundane and excruciatingly boring circumstances. Chava internet-searches events around her birthday and finds that there are two music festivals within the same week--running the numbers, she concludes that this alternative plan would actually cost less than the original--”so why not?” The young women keep their escapade-to-be a complete secret, disguising all the preliminary details as “wedding planning” They plan to ‘meet in the middle', Los Angeles being centrally located to both their respective homes. They meet at LAX excitedly and reuinte in happy (and drunken) tears. ACT 2: Sunny California Chava wants to visit old friends and reminisce as a “wannabe tourist” in an all-too-familiar city, which she used to call home--she's built a list of things to do and prepared an itinerary for the week; Sala wants to get riddegy-wrecked sun-up to sundown; Worlds collide as somewhat by-the-book Chava nervously nativages around, typically babysitting Sala and often falling victim to being steered off-course by her shenanigans. Within their first few moments under the California moonlight, Sala's smartphone helps her discover that she has a nearby group of friends--conveniently banded-together by her circus act “master plug”, who is devastatingly in love with her. They spend night one of the first festival tracking him down--Sala finds herself already exhausted by Sala's timing and drunken unsubtlety (“My friend's a COP!”) They finally meet him at the end of the first day, they allow him to tag along--until he becomes almost-suddenly dysfunctionally inebriated and Chava must make a fight-or-flight decision to leave him behind, after he begins drawing attention to their vulnerable crew, and she is approached at random by a mysterious character in a gas station convenience store, where she appears to be the most sober person. On day two, after running at top-speed to catch the shuttle, Sala drunkenly makes friends with a group of young people (fresh out of high school), who to Chava are quite “wookish”, but she plays along anyway. However, by the time they exit the shuttle and Chava has finallybecome comfortable being invited into their squad; Chala decides to ditch them--unknowing that they will re-meet later in the night.

Today I want to talk to you about asking God to do harmful things to bad people. And if you're wondering if you just heard what you think you heard, you did, I think. There is a biblical way of praying called “imprecation” and it's when the one praying is asking God to do harmful things to bad people. The one praying is asking God to curse their enemies. That's the central theme of Psalm 58. David is asking God to judge the wicked by intervening to disarm them and destroy them. And this morning we're gonna look closer at this and consider whether we should ever pray this way. But before we get there — and before we start into Psalm 58 — I want to lay down some train tracks that will help us understand this psalm.So imagine, for a minute, an old train track. I know you've seen this before. There's two basic parts: there's the ties, and the the two rails. The rails are what the train sits on; they're what keeps the train moving and what keeps the ride smooth. And well, when it comes to Psalm 58, there are two rails, as it were, beneath it.And, if, when we read this psalm, things feel a little bumpy for us. If something is just not sitting right, if we're uncomfortable, the problem is not the psalm — it's us … and it means we need to check the rails. 1 and 2. Rail #1 is the fact that this psalm is ancient poetry. And we get the poetry part; I think it's the ancient part we can more easily forget. So just to remind you, the psalms were written a very long time ago. Psalm 58 was probably written around 1010 BC — and that's so old that really we should be amazed just by that. Sometimes I think we can take the ancientness for granted.This occurred to me in a fresh way a couple weeks ago. I had some time away on vacation and so I was reading a book for fun that was about a myth/fairy tale story that reportedly goes back to a thousand years before Jesus was born. It was an ancient Celtic story that was passed down orally until it was later written down, and here I was, holding a book, reading it. And seriously, I could not get over how old this thing was. Every sentence I read, I was giddy by the thought that this thing I'm reading has been retold and read for around 3,000 years. “I can't believe how ancient this is!” Meanwhile, I read from the Psalms every morning … and at one point I was like: “Wait a minute.”See, sometimes I think we've become so spoiled by the accessibility of this Book that we lose sight of the wonder of its ancientness. And one of the glories of its ancientness is that it was written in the context of a mythologized world. In other words, it wasn't just the psalmists and biblical writers who knew the world was enchanted, but everybody at that time knew the world was enchanted. In the biblical world, every human understood that there were invisible forces outside of themselves that were always active. And one of the negative side-effects of our modern, technological, scientific age, is that we've bleached our imaginations of this reality. An example of this, my favorite, is in parenting. When our kids wake us up at 2am and say, “Dad, there's a monster under my bed!” we say, “There's no such thing as monsters. Go back to sleep.” But hold on now. If you believe in a spiritual world and the reality of evil, you can't say that. It would be more accurate for us to say: “Child, there might be a monster under your bed, but Jesus is stronger than monsters … and he has angels who will do whatever he tells them to, and they're also in this room!” And we say that because it's true. And when we're immersed in the Bible, we begin to see the world the way the Bible does, which is different than how our culture sees it. David knew there were deeper layers to reality than what we're able to perceive, and he wrote from that knowledge. It's part of the ancientness of this Book. And we need to remember it. It's rail #1. Rail #2 is that the fact that God is holy. And to say that God is holy is to start with what Pastor Joe said last week, that God is beyond what we can fathom. Speaking of the James Webb telescope, I just read a few days ago that because of this telescope, NASA has discovered a small gas-like planet orbiting a Sun-like star … 700 light years away. And if 1 light year is about 6 trillion miles, do the math. It's a lot. The point is that the known universe is always becoming more than we thought.And if what we can fathom about the known-universe is increasing, it's helpful to remember that God is greater than what we can fathom. I appreciate Anselm's 11th-century description that God is a being than which none greater can be imagined. Which means that whatever we can imagine or think or see (which the telescope increases), God must be higher. However far we can go, God is still beyond that. And, like Joe said, we must bow before him.God is so outside of us. That's what the Bible means by “holy.” R. C. Sproul says, “when the Bible calls God holy, it means primarily that God is transcendently separate.” He is beyond category and comparison. He is the Unactualized Actualizer. He is the Unmoved Mover. He is self-determining, which means he doesn't depend on anything to be who he is, but instead all things are dependent upon him. That's what it means that God is God, and we are not — he sets the rules, and he is never subject to anything outside himself. And when we get this, it means we just have to shut our mouths.We actually don't have the right to disagree with God or to dislike his ways … now I'm not saying we never do. That's part of our human experience. We see it in the Psalms. But I'm saying, however much we are bothered by God, we can never actually assume a position that makes him the object of our scrutiny.So when you read the Bible and something rubs you the wrong way, first, know that's a good sign. To be bothered by God means you're actually reading his revelation and you're not just making up your own god. You're reading an ancient book about God. What do you expect?And so, in Psalm 58, for example, if (or when) you're bothered by the fact that, according to God's will, we as the people of God will bathe our feet in the blood of the wicked (verse 10), consider it, first, a grace to be bothered, and then, second, remember that we've really got no business being bothered. Because God is God and we are not. Our disapproval of his will does not injure his untouchable moral purity. God is holy, holy, holy. And sometimes we just need to stop. That's rail #2.Rail 1: this book is ancient. Rail 2: God is holy.If Psalm 58 is a rocky ride for us, my first guess is that we're missing something to do with those rails. So that's why we start here. We wanna get the two rails. And now we can look closer at this psalm.Not a Normal PrayerAnd as I already mentioned, central to Psalm 58 is a series of imprecations. David is asking God to curse his enemies, and to be clear, this is not something that David is doing lightly. This is not a normal way to pray. And I say that because there are 150 psalms, and most of them are not like this. Now we've seen imprecations before. We've read several imprecatory lines here and there over the last few years, like way back in Psalm 5:10. David prays: “Make them bear their guilt, O God; let them fall by their own counsels.” Or, just a few weeks ago, Psalm 54:5, “He will return the evil to my enemies; in your faithfulness put an end to them.” We've seen single lines like this before, but it's seldom that we find longer passages of multiple imprecatory lines back to back. There's only a few psalms that do this, and Psalm 58 is one of them. So this is not normal, but it is legitimate. It's in the Bible. And David, remember, in this section of the psalms, is meant to be a model for us of faithfulness to God. So he's teaching us how to pray, including prayers like this.And in that light, in Psalm 58 I think we find three guiding principles for how to pray imprecations — and we're going to spend the rest of our time on this. These are three guiding principles that David models when it comes to asking God to curse the wicked.1) The wicked are truly wicked.It's important that we see who David is talking about here. He is referring to a highly sophisticated enemy that has power and authority. Look at verse 1. David starts by addressing his enemy. Verse 1: “Do you indeed decreed what is right you gods? Do you judge the children of man uprightly?” And the word for “gods” there could also mean “rulers.” It's also translated as “Mighty Ones.” Most commenters agree that David most likely has human rulers in mind, but the main idea is evil rulers. These are individuals who are wicked and who have authority to act wickedly for the harm of others. That's the second line there in verse 1. They do not judge the children of man uprightly. These rulers are devising wrong and dealing out violence.So hear the sophistication in that: this is pre-meditated harm. They are calculating how they might obstruct justice and mistreat the innocent. This enemy, in high-handed rebellion against God, intends to ruin things. That's what they're doing, and then in verses 3–4 David goes on to describe what they're like. Verse 3: “The wicked are estranged from the womb; they go astray from birth, speaking lies.” David says this enemy — “the wicked” he calls them here — they are estranged before they're even born. The wicked are, right away, even as infants, “lost and ruined by the fall.” The wicked bear the curse of original sin…Like we all do.Which makes this interesting. David is describing the wicked in verse 3, but it's a description that is fitting for every human. Because we're all born in sin; we're all bent away from God; and we all lie. The latest research on lying (which apparently is a thing) says that the average human hears around 200 lies every single day. That's counting big lies and “little” lies, both of which humans start doing at an early age. I can remember the first big, blatant lie I ever told. I think I was 4 or 5.One morning for breakfast, I told my dad I wanted a glass of milk. He poured the milk but then I decided I didn't want it. He said, “Son, you gotta drink it.” So I said, “Okay dad, I'll drink it, but I gotta go to the bathroom, and I'm gonna drink the milk in there.” So I took the milk in the bathroom with me, walked out in about 3 seconds, glass of milk emptied. And my dad said, “Did you drink that?” And I told him — not even with a milk mustache — “Yeah, Dad. The milk was great. Yum. I love milk. Milk's the best. Got milk?” My dad goes into the bathroom to check … and I forgot to flush. Then I received what was called in the ancient world a whoopin'… which is why I remember it.I had lied. At 4 years-old. I had lied and nobody taught me how. I just knew. Because I was born a sinner. I was born a speaker of lies — like all of us. So verse 3 hits close to home. Sounds like me.Are “Worse Sinners” Possible?And so we have to ask: is there any difference between the wicked in Psalm 58 and any typical human sinner?Yes and no. And we need to be very careful here.The answer is yes because we are all sinners. We are totally depraved creatures from the start. Every part of us is tainted by sin, and apart from God's grace, our hearts are bent away from him in rebellion. That is true of every human, and because of that, every human deserves God's judgment — which is why we need Jesus! We all need to be saved by Jesus from our sin and its consequences. Amen.And at the same time, although everyone is a sinner and totally depraved, nobody is depraved totally or even as depraved as others.In other words, we could be worse sinners than we are, and there are worse sinners than us out there. Now I realize that such a statement might make us bristle a little. Because we're uncomfortable at the thought of any kind of inequality. We just want everything equal: “We're all just equal sinners. Nobody is worse. We're all just equally bad.” But look, you know that's not true. Nobody really thinks that. Again, we are all sinners and we all deserve God's wrath, but there are some humans more wicked than others, and I had to turn to a pre-modern commentary to spell this out. John Calvin, writing in the 1500s, comments on Psalm 58 and says, Yeah, these are especially wicked people. And then Calvin goes on to list out three classes of unregenerate sinners:He says everyone comes into the world stained with sin, but there is a, “secret restraint upon most men which prevents them from proceeding all lengths in iniquity” (371). That's what it means to be totally depraved, but not depraved totally. We are not as bad as we could be.He writes, "The stain of original sin cleaves to the whole human family without exception; but experience proves that some are characterized by modesty and decency of outward deportment." This is Class 1: these are “decent” sinners; they're still dead in their sins and facing God's judgment, but they're decent folks. They're not horrible people; they're just lost.Then Calvin says, “others are wicked, yet, at the same time, within the bounds of moderation” This is Class 2: these are wicked sinners who do a lot of sinful things, but still they are not excessively vile. There's a line they won't cross.But Calvin says there is a, “third class that are so depraved in disposition as to be intolerable members of society.” Calvin calls them “monsters of iniquity.” (These are the ones they make Netflix documentaries about!)And Calvin says that's who David is talking about. They have venom like a poisonous snake. They're like an adder (or a cobra) that refuses any kind of outside influence.In other words, the wicked on whom David prays these curses are truly wicked. And one of the reasons I think this kind of praying is rare is because it's not every day you encounter this kind of evil enemy. This is probably not your boss; it's not your grumpy neighbor; it's not the guy in traffic who cut you off. These are not people you disagree with or maybe not even even people who have harmed you. David is not just walking around dishing out curses. These are truly wicked people.That's the first principle when it comes to praying imprecations.2) God has the power and authority to condemn the wicked.Verse 6 is the center of this psalm. Psalm 58, like Psalm 57 last week, has a chiastic structure. It's like a cheeseburger, remember, and the meat is in the middle. That's verse 6. And verse 6 itself is even chiastic. Look at verse 6: “O God, break the teeth in their mouths;tear out the fangs of the young lions, O Lord!” Do you see how it begins and ends with “O God” and “O Lord”?This is meant to emphasize what David is praying here. The volume is cranked up.Break their teeth!Tear our their fangs!David is asking for God to disarm them. Remove their power to cause harm.Evaporate them. Blunt them. Disintegrate them. Frustrate them. Sweep them away!And the reason David is asking God to do this is because he knows he lacks the power and authority himself to do it. Quickly here: remember the difference between power and authority —Power is the strength to do something. Authority is the right to do something. And David knows that in this case he has neither. He does not have the strength to defeat his enemies, but even if he did, he doesn't have the right to condemn them. Only God can do that.God has the power and authority to condemn the wicked; David does not; which is why David prays. And it means that this prayer is from a deep faith in God. The last couple weeks, as I studied Psalm 58 and imprecations, I was surprised by those who consider this kind of praying to be a sign of bitterness in David. One person I read said that rather than David pray that God tear out the fangs of the wicked, David should have prayed that God redeem their fangs. This person said that when we read Psalm 58 we're actually supposed to pray for people like David here who harbor vengeful desires. (Apparently this person is smarter than the Bible.)David is not displaying bitterness here; he's actually displaying trust in the character of God. He knows that God is good and just and mighty, and that God will always do what is right. And so knowing that, and knowing how truly wicked the wicked are, David's imprecations in Psalm 58 is his entrusting this whole thing to God. David is actually modeling for us what the apostle Paul commands us in Romans 12:19, Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” In Psalm 58, David is doing that. He's saying, Okay, Lord, it's yours. I'm not trying to take this into my own hands. I'm not trying to go all Liam Neeson on these guys. I can't do that. I'm not doing that. I'm leaving it to you. Vengeance is yours.That kind of praying is way harder than you think. Because it's in our bones that we want to avenge. We want to make the wicked pay. We want to be God. But no. Faith in God, and Christian character, leaves vengeance to God. God is the one, the only one, who has the power and authority to condemn the wicked.And one day he will.That is the third guiding principle when it comes to praying imprecations.3) One day God will condemn the wicked. Look at verses 10-11, "The righteous will rejoice when he sees the vengeance;he will bathe his feet in the blood of the wicked.Mankind will say, “Surely there is a reward for the righteous;surely there is a God who judges on earth.” So not only does God have the power and authority to condemn the wicked, but he most certainly will condemn the wicked. There is a day in the future, there is an event that is coming, when Jesus will return with his mighty angels, in flaming fire, and he will have his vengeance on every sinner who rejects the gospel. Every class of sinner who has refused God's grace, on that day, they will suffer the punishment of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord (see 2 Thessalonians 1:5–12).And we, as those made righteous by Jesus — as sinners saved by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone — we will see Jesus's judgment of the wicked and we will rejoice. The scene will not sicken us … because everything about it will be right. In fact, look at this: verses 10–11 here are the exact opposite of the situation in verses 1–2. On the Last day, the one true God will decree what is right and he will judge the children of man uprightly. And the righteousness of that judgment will be so manifest that all of mankind will acknowledge it.That's verse 11, which I think it's one of the most amazing verses in the Bible. I think David is referring to end-time judgment here, and “mankind” represents all of mankind, both the righteous and the wicked. This is the moment when, because of God's judgment, all mankind will say, everybody will say: God is real.The gospel is true.What we did in the world mattered. One day that will be the most obvious thing there is.See, verse 11 here describes our great vindication. This is a snap-out-of-it verse! It just cuts through all the fog. One day you will stand before the judgment of God and you will know that all of this counted. It means something. What you do means something.See, Christian, on the Last Day, everything will have been worth it. And I think that's at least one of the reasons we will rejoice at this judgment…because it means our hope is reality. Our faith now will then be sight.And we will know when we see God's judgment, in the most literal way, “there but for the grace of God, go I.”The difference, the only real consequential difference between us and the condemned, is Jesus Christ. It's that Jesus was condemned for us, already, on the cross. And that's it. The wrath of God will be poured out on sin, but it's not going to be poured out on you and me, Christian, because Jesus has already taken that wrath in our place. Jesus suffered the judgment we deserve for our sins. That's what it means that he saved us. That's what it means that he is a Savior! Guilty, vile, and helpless we;Spotless Lamb of God was He;“Full atonement!” can it be?Hallelujah! What a Savior! We sing that today (with our poor lisping stammering tongues). And we will sing it on the Day of Judgment with unimaginable clarity.In order to pray imprecations, faithfully, in the way that David does in Psalm 58, we keep these three guiding principles in view:1) The wicked are truly wicked2) Only God has the power and authority to condemn the wicked3) One day God will condemn the wickedAnd on that day we will know his mercy more clearly and more tangibly than ever before.That's what brings us to the Table. The TableAt this Table, as we eat the bread and drink the cup, we are remembering the death of Jesus for us. He gave his body and shed his blood for us, so that we can look forward to the Last Day in hope. God has been so merciful to us. And if you know his mercy, if you've trusted in Jesus, if your only hope is in his death and resurrection, then we welcome you to eat and drink with us.
If you can close your eyes, As you end this day, If you can let go of all of the things. You'll come to see, There's calm inside, Where everything can refresh and renew. PAUSE… If you can breathe, And feel the air, As it cleanses and fills you up. If you can breathe, And release what's there, You can let go of the old. PAUSE… Tomorrow's a new day, So don't worry now, Everything that's been heavy and fast, Will evaporate, Disintegrate, Leaving you lighter and clear. JOURNAL PROMPTS: Before Bed What was the best part of your day? What can you let go of from today? What are you excited about for tomorrow? In the Morning What are your intentions for today? What are you grateful for today?
Player character deaths happen in all Dungeons and Dragons games and other TTRPGs … don't they? Should you be worried about killing PCs, or is it fine to let the dice fall where they may? When is it OK to kill a character and how do you make sure the player is still into the game with their new PC? Is it even the DM's choice? These questions come to us from a reader, but they're not as simple as they may first sound. Sure, let the dice fall where they may and if characters die, so be it … But is that always the best thing to do? We think of ourselves as “if it dies, it dies” DMs, but at the same time, we really haven't killed many PCs in any of our 5E games.
