Canadian Residential School Deaths
by Simon inin case you haven't heard, they just discovered the remains of some 215 dead children at a so called canadian residential school.
they couldn't call it a death-camp could they ... it would be too obvious.. these were where indigenous children were taken, forcibly, in order to "educate" them out of their native customs and languages and make them integrate with society.. unbelievably, this was still going on in the 60s to 90s.. of course the catholic church has their sticky fingers all over it.
what is it about those creepy bastards?

Governing Body; Villians or just Deluded?
by pistolpete inare you sometimes dumbfounded at the direction the governing body takes?.
thousands of documents proving 607 bce is wrong, yet the gb sticks to the date, why?.
the generation that would not die, yet they continue by introducing an overlapping generation.. disfellowshipping at a time when everyone is leaving, not a good idea, yet they continue to disfellowship.. here is a video that addresses these questions.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbgeqhp9o9i.

I think they truly believe what they are selling. But the they also know how to manipulate people to get what they want. They use their power and positions to gain materially, feeding off other deluded people. Villians? Maybe. Deluded free loaders? Absolutely.

Do You Still Easily Believe Everything?
by minimus into be a witness you had to accept whatever spiritual food was being dished out.
even if it didn’t make any sense, we were expected to believe.
now that we are out of the cult, do you find yourself a person who doesn’t just accept the status quo?

No. My BS meter is always on alert and I sometimes am probably not trusting enough of other people.

Bathing Daily Doesn’t Help The Planet
by minimus inthe new york times as well as other news agencies are reporting that in order to help save the planet we should limit our daily bathing.
they say daily bathing really because popular in the 20th century because elites decided to impress and use petroleum based soaps and take advantage of their indoor plumbing.
a lot of this daily bathing ritual was just for show.

No, just no. I’ll keep bathing every day. And brushing my teeth at least twice a day. I’ve sat near people with questionable hygiene and they are the only ones happy with their choice.

Didn’t get the last stimulus as I make too much. The other payments were grossly reduced for the same reason.
I hope there isn’t another stimulus.

Dancing Cockatoo, Living His Best Life, a Lesson For All of Us
by Simon inso this is a sad story, i believe the cockatoo was neglected after his owner died (relatives just kept it locked up and the cage covered) so it plucked its feathers.
the new owners rescued it and are giving it the care, love, and attention it needs.. they discovered that it loves to dance so they share these adorable videos of it rocking out.. it reminded me what a great lesson there is for all of us - don't wallow in the past, live your best life now and enjoy your new freedom and be happy.. be like griffi.. also, it has way better moves than me.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ayos5kvlxn8.

The choice of being alone has never been clearer.
by pistolpete insomething i've noticed is that marriage was the thing for those born before 2010. but today's culture of divorce laws slanted to favor women has forced men to think carefully before signing the marriage certificate.
most of my friends have no intentions of getting married.
all of them have gotten vasectomies, so there is no chance of being blamed for a pregnancy.

@great teacher - I agree, my marriage is the least stressful thing in my life. My husband is my best friend and we are compatible about most things. We’ve been married more than 20 years and are happy.

Do You Think “Normal” Is Ever Going To Happen Again?
by minimus insince covid, our lives have all been affected.
do you think people will ever get back to normal, pre-covid?
are masks, vaccinations and social distancing the “new normal “?.
-
-
just fine
I think as more people get back to normal - more people will want to get back to normal. I’m over everyone trying to scare me.
I got the shots and am doing what I want. We have tickets to an arena concert in a few days with no social distancing requirements. If it’s not something you are comfortable with the musician suggested you don’t buy a ticket.

Saving Money While Stuck At Home
by Simon inso you're stuck at home, you may be worried about your income, welcome to the world of filling your stuck-in-the-house time with saving some money!.
here in canada, our energy costs are going up because we have a carbon tax.
today, in the middle of the crisis, trudeau is raising it by 50%, probably as some perverse "thank you" to all the truckers delivering vital goods.

Can we stick to topics that we came that we came to this forum in the first place?
by James Jack ini don’t care about politics, books you are reading, movies and tv programs you’re watching, etc..

Sometimes those “off topic” posts are where I learn the most.
Some of them have made me examine beliefs and attitudes I had that were holding me back.
If it’s not something that interests me I just skip it.
