I reckon it's kinda like being sent to theocratic "Siberia" or
"Keep up with Jehovah's chariot or you will end up as theocratic "roadkill!"

How do Americans feel about Canadians and Britons interjecting their opinions onto hot localized political topics: gun laws, abortion, ect?
by adjusted knowledge inin addition to the above question, why do citizens of the two above mentioned countries, or other countries, feel the necessity to tell americans how they should interpret the american constitution for localized issues?.
i fairly much have an idea what the general population in the usa feels in regards to the first question.
this could be one of the possible reasons cnn piers morgan poor ratings and eventual firing.

Nu-lite has always been a effective way of culling the undesirables. Which in this case is all the oldies who remember the embarrassing WT sins of days gone by.
Theses changes are the result of design - not accident. The higher-ups that make the decisions know full well that this push to embrace technology will alienate the elderly and the disadvantaged.

We might see Caleb grow up, think of all the "Truman show" style episodes.
Caleb at age 15 - Caleb Struggles with self-pleasuring
Caleb at age 20 - Caleb Learns How to Run Away from Apostates while trolley witnessing.
Caleb at age 25- Caleb says No to getting married in favor of going to Bethel.

Transperency ...hmm, what a novel concept for the GB.

Probably not techinically misphonia, but there was a particular elder at my hall whose talk-voice made me want to scream "shuuuut uuup!"

The contempt of Anthony Morris: the face doesn't lie.
by freemindfade ini have noticed something even long before even looking into ttatt, something about morris bothered me.
i am personally very attuned to body language, facial expressions and general subtleties in human interaction.
there was something about his face that really bothered me, and i will explain it.

Yeah,Tony's trademark lip curl always bothered me. There is a real hardness in his eyes aswell.
I also pick up on micro-expressions.

What to do about wife and elders
by Crazyguy init seams like every time i turn around i find out that the elders are trying to meet with one of my kids or are talking with them about things and of course my wife is instigating it.
if i say anything to my children she mentions something and they come running.
one of the ms's is also studying with them as well.

The paradox of the headship arrangement is that it is ultimately very emasculating. If a sister is married to someone who is considered "weak" or an unbeliever then she can go over his head or the loving bros step in and take the "spiritual lead" in the family. Pushing the husband onto the sidelines. I have known many sisters who have felt justified in playing the "my husband is not taking the lead card."
I am sorry this is happening to you CG.

Thanks for responding Amelia, I have experienced this sensation since childhood and only recently found out it was an actual thing. Though from what I understand not everyone experiences it. I have read that it can help with insomnia and as I don't like taking sleep meds I was interested in hearing if anyone has found it to be useful for that.
Zeb - ASMR is a particular sensation felt as a pleasant tingling feeling usually on the scalp or shoulders, it is very relaxing and can be triggered by certain sounds or activities. If you have ever experienced this you would recognize the description immediately.
