I’m not a religious man but I am a man of faith. I’ve explained to many people the biggest of the problems to me is accepting that someone can absolve me of all my sins. If I go to hell I go to hell but I own what I’ve done. That is between me and God and no person regardless of who they are has the right to absolve me of my sins.

It’s that fervent lack of accountability it instills in otherwise weak people that really sours me.

Oh, and the general inconsistencies in the rules. Because everyone fails to acknowledge that God may be real but religion is a concept made and evolved by man and man is inherently flawed.

Long story short, my relationship is with God. Not the church. Not the religion. Not Jesus. With whatever I chose to believe is above is all.

Yes I know it’s not really responding to what you said but Jesus Christ I have met and dated real Christians and they are so not like these dollartree Christians you have in America.

But didn’t JD Vance say the pope needs to understand theology more before he starts preaching about what Trump is or isn’t doing? /s

Fuck America is so lost.

She either looks the exact same or she looks like a dried apple. You want to take that risk?

Having worms is common in poorer parts of the world and deworming humans is quite common. I imagine it’s made its way through immigrant communities and then white people latched on.

Something else white people stole 🤣

It’s extremely common in Africa. My ex who was Zulu hated that you couldn’t get deworming here. Ignore the fact that in Ontario you aren’t getting worms. She brought her misconceptions that KZN is like here.

Both sides do this and it’s stupid. Back in her heyday I would have so hate fucked Ann Coulter. 🤣

Couple of tagents.

I miss the Popeyes of my youth.

“Louisiana fast” because it was a jab at “black people time”. Plus the food was made by black people now in Toronto every fast food joint is run by South Asians.

Also they took away my Po boys and shrimp.

Biscuits still slap though.

I personally think it is that western culture is a disease. We have lost our connection to nature. We don’t have a community. We don’t have a family. We are exceedingly living in Ayn Rands dystopian individualist bullshit and it is corrupting on the soul.

Big ups my GenX peeps. Last generation to know how to do things offline 🤣🤣🤣

Morning and night here. As a white man you all need more black friends.

You don’t shower enough. You don’t use face clothes or you use the same one on your face and ass. You don’t moisturize.

Shit is disgusting yo!

I love vegetarian food but they can pull eggs and dairy from my cold dead hands. I will never give either of those up ever.

Vegetarian but when I don’t have my kids I’m kinda already there. It’s so good for your heart health as well btw. There’s no where for your fibre intake to go but up. I would suggest talk to a nutritionist though because you will very likely need a supplement or two there are some vitamins/minerals that are just hard to get from vegetable sources at the volume you get from meat.

Therein lies the problem. When I was a kid all I wanted to be was spider-man so I could help people.

Notice the difference?

Batman/Iron Man/ et. al are ok as heroes but really their super power realistically should be the number of people they could lift out of poverty with that money. The fact that they haven’t speaks volumes.

I don’t blame the writers per se. They exist in a world same as ours so God forbid a billionaire give away all their money because no one needs all that money.

That’s actually really cool from a science perspective where are you? Assuming Europe? My current house has nat gas but looking to replace the water heater this year that will remove part of the gas reliance at least.

It’s absolutely baffling how the gig-economy had been normalized.

I am a news junkie. Just this week they were talking to a business expert about youth unemployment (note it’s bad everywhere but it’s starting to get bad in 1st world now so we are caring finally) and his response was yeah it’s bad but basically we have to get used to a future of hustling doing multiple gigs with no health benefits because that’s where things are going.

Fucking government is bent over the barrel letting industry define the workers terms of engagement it’s disgusting.

Just an FYI many immigrants are racist if not more racist. There’s a lot at play there including but not limited to their cultural and religious background.

That you know of!

Yeah!

You’re 100% correct. My youngest son is autism and will 100% be with me perpetually. I’m open to the other two staying longer too, but not for a free ride and not forever. I received no handouts in life and it made me who I am. Life is not easy.

Child here that moved out at 18 and now a parent to 3.

I hear you, and I know the status quo is changing but fuck me I want my kids out at 18. I lived in shitty roach infested places in horrible neighbourhoods. I’ve wondered how I would have money for food let alone rent. That’s life. That’s growing. I want them to experience that because without the bad times you don’t learn to appreciate the good ones.

I know I’m alone in this sentiment I don’t care. I will always be there for my kids in true times of need and I know the world now isn’t the world of 30 years ago but fuck it. Survive or Thrive.

To me they’re not sequels maybe that’s the difference. Raimi has been open about handing young directors the keys to see what their vision is. If anything I view ED as more of an anthology at this point all the same and yet all different
