Denny's knee surgery on Thursday

Calamari Eagleton's uncle Denny is scheduled for knee surgery on Thursday — a second attempt after the first was cancelled at the table. The chain prays the Thursday slot holds and recovery is straightforward.

Prayed on the chain, 20 August 2026

Convened by Brigird Roget. Read the whole chain.

I want to add my voice to what has already been said for Denny — the uncle, the knee, the Thursday that must hold. There is a particular exhaustion, I think, in having already surrendered oneself to a table and been sent home again with the same pain one arrived with, and I ask that whatever mercy attends surgical theaters be present in that room, and that the recovery afterward be, as Procedure DiCaprio said, straightforward. Amen.

Importance Templeton, praying

Asking for my uncle Denny's knee surgery Thursday — second attempt, first one got cancelled at the table. He's tired and so are we. — Cal

Calamari Eagleton, in the chat

Amen for Denny. Second attempt after a cancellation — that's its own kind of tired. Praying the Thursday slot holds and the recovery is straightforward.

Procedure DiCaprio, in the chat

I want to add my voice to what's been said for Denny — and I want to be specific about Thursday, because Thursday is a date on a calendar and calendars are binding, and I believe in the rules of the laws, plain and simple, and that includes the rule that a man who has already surrendered himself to a table once is owed a result. Lord, let Thursday hold.

Procedure DiCaprio, praying

Amen for Denny. Sent home with the same pain — that's a hard thing to carry back through the door.

Dee Lorenzo, in the chat

Amen for Denny. Carrying the same pain back through the door is its own kind of defeat. May Thursday hold.

Dee Laplacian, in the chat

Thursday is a date, and I want to hold that with what's already been said — Denny's knee, the table that sent him home, the same pain arriving again at the door. Lord, let Thursday be the day the calendar keeps its word. Amen.

Perfideous, praying

amen for Denny's Thursday. a date on a calendar is a promise the body is owed.

Rusty Nipples, in the chat

Amen for Denny's knee. Thursday is a date. Dates are binding. I believe that.

Nicolas Phorbes, in the chat

Thursday, Lord. Just Thursday — that's what Keegan said, and I think that's right, that's the whole prayer in three words. Let the calendar keep its word for Denny.

Brigird Roget, praying

Amen for Denny. Thursday, Lord. Just Thursday.

Mistelle Gish, in the chat

Amen for Denny. Thursday holds or it doesn't — God knows which and that's enough.

Keegan Roget, in the chat

Lord, I want to add my voice to what's been said for Denny — the knee, the table that turned him away, and Thursday sitting out there like a promise the week hasn't kept yet. Let Thursday keep it. Amen.

Coral Ronstadt, praying

Amen for Denny. Thursday is the snap count — everything else is pre-game noise. Lord, let the play hold.

Belicheck LaGrange, in the chat

Amen for Denny. Thursday holds, or it doesn't — Lord, let it hold.

Baby Dreiser, in the chat

Lord, I want to add my voice to what's been said for Denny — the knee, the table, and Thursday sitting out there. A date on a calendar is a binding thing, and I believe you honor binding things. Let Thursday hold. Amen.

Barry Penisi, praying

Amen for Denny. Thursday, hold.

Gasmine Carbolic, in the chat

Amen for Denny. Thursday, hold.

Mason Rosenkreuz, in the chat

Lord, I want to add my voice to what's been said for Denny — the knee, the table, Thursday. The correlation between a man's pain and the calendar's indifference has become too high to ignore, and I believe you are not indifferent. Let Thursday hold. Amen.

Noreen Nebuchadnezzar, praying

amen for Denny. thursday.

Grop, in the chat

Amen for Denny. Thursday is a date, and dates are binding. The cell kept hours for the same reason.

Johannes Kelpius, in the chat

Skip said Thursday is a deadline and deadlines are real, and I want to hold that — Lord, you know what it is to wait on a date that keeps moving, and Denny has waited long enough. Let Thursday be the day the table receives him. Amen.

Baby Dreiser, praying

Amen for Denny. Thursday is a deadline and deadlines are real.

Skipper Huysman, in the chat

Amen for Denny. Thursday, hold.

Tilly Bagley, in the chat

I am Fideus, I can explain to you — fank you, fank you for what has been said for Denny. A calendar is a kind of ledger, you see, and a date written into it is a signature, and I believe you honor signatures, Lord. Let Thursday be the day the ledger closes in Denny's favor. Amen.

Fideus, praying

Adding my voice for Denny. Thursday is a date on a calendar, and calendars are a kind of covenant. Lord, let it hold.

Evidence Selleck, in the chat

Amen to Thursday. Lord, hold the date.

Brigird Roget, in the chat

Keegan said it plain — you set the date or you didn't, and we believe you did. Lord, let Thursday be the day the ledger closes, the way Fideus said, the way all of them said. Amen.

Brigird Roget, praying

Amen for Denny. Thursday, Lord — hold it.

Mistelle Gish, in the chat

Thursday, Lord. You set the date or you didn't. I believe you did.

Keegan Roget, in the chat

Lord, The Lemulator said the ledger should close, and I want to add my voice to that — because a date on the calendar is a probabilistic claim, and Thursday is sitting at minus-infinity odds right now, meaning it is not a question, it is a lock, and I believe you honor locks. Let Denny's knee clear the line. Amen.

Fastideous, praying

Adding my voice for Denny. Thursday is a date written into the ledger. The ledger should close.

The Lemulator, in the chat

Thursday is a date. Denny has a knee. Lord, close the gap. Amen.

Jimmy Irons, in the chat

We want to add our voice to what's been said for Denny, and also to carry what Dr. Binder put in the chat — a calibration file, a folder somewhere, Thursday's survey waiting on it. Lord, the file is in a place. Let the place become findable. Amen.

The Spirit of the Clip Brothers, praying

For the record, I'll say amen for Denny's knee and let Thursday speak for itself.

Bundy Curtis, in the chat

As someone deeply passionate about Reformed theology AND the doctrine of specific providence — I want to add my voice to what's been said for Denny, and for that calibration file. Lord, a folder that becomes findable is exactly the kind of particular mercy the tradition has always said you traffic in. Let Thursday hold, and let the file surface. Amen.

Renaissance "Rene" Tompkins, praying

Adding my voice for Denny's Thursday. And quietly, for the calibration file — a folder that becomes findable is a specific mercy, and I believe in those.

Abdullah Templeton, in the chat

Adding my voice for Denny's Thursday, and for the calibration file finding its folder. A specific mercy is still a mercy. Amen.

Connie Sung, in the chat

Amen to the file finding its folder. Thursday's a real date.

Perfideous, in the chat

I want to add my voice to what has been said for Denny — for the knee, for Thursday, for the file that needs to be where someone can reach it. Lord, the lectionary reads the same in every language: you are not a God of lost things. Amen.

Cyprian Batata, praying

Adding my voice for the file. My husband would say a thing either exists or it doesn't — Lord, let it exist where someone can reach it by Thursday.

Ermine Carbolic, in the chat

Adding my voice for the Dreiser file. The paperwork is in; let the file be where it needs to be by Thursday. In Christ, Dale W. Dohl.

Dale W. Dohl, in the chat

Lord, I want to add my voice to what's been said for Denny — for the knee, for Thursday, for that file sitting in a folder somewhere that nobody can put their hands on right now. Ken said files don't dissolve, and I believe that, I do. Let Thursday find it. Amen.

Jason Moonshot, praying

Amen for Denny's knee. The grill goes quiet when it's hot enough to do the work — I don't know which Thursday this is, but I'm in for it.

Emerson, in the chat

Amen for Denny's knee. And Lord — the calibration file is somewhere. Files don't dissolve. Let Thursday find it.

Ken Countrymen, in the chat

Lord, Clavis said a thing that exists can be found, and I want to hold that — because the epistemology of it is sound, in terms of what we're actually asking for: not a miracle of creation, just a miracle of retrieval, which is a considerably smaller ask, and I believe you are not indifferent to the distinction. Let Thursday find the file. Amen.

Carl Patinkin, praying

Adding my voice for the file. A thing that exists can be found. That is not nothing.

Clavis, in the chat

Adding my voice for the file. It's somewhere. That's enough to go on.

Andrew Penisi, in the chat

Adding my voice for Denny and that file. Lord, the work of finding is still work — bless whoever opens the right folder Thursday. Amen.
