I dated a man who had a tatt of those lips on his left butt cheek. He and a few of his friends all got it done when they graduated from law school.
if anyone has any ideas or pictures of a tattoo that would sum up being an ex jw please share.

i need a bit of advice.
i've been pimo for a long time and fading more and more.
i occasionally attend for family but never give any answers or actively participate in any way.
Thanks for the update. Sounds like you did great.
Keep up the charade but maybe skip a few more meetings in the next 2-3 weeks. Let them see that their effort to 'encourage' you has exactly the opposite effect.
When they push, you recede further.
It will help to condition the new COBE to *not* push you or make you feel more guilty. Let him clearly see that you are not someone he can rely on to help with KH or FS matters.
Let their shepherding call backfire on them by taking your fade to the next level.
A suggestion of somethings to do on meeting nights is see a movie by yourself, work overtime, go to your local library. Or just go to bed early.
in her acceptance speech she made her stance on the me too movement, and thanked god for her artistic career.
she stand with women and with those men equally outraged by discrimination who support us in heart and mind.
rebbie and mom (both jw) front row seats when she gave credit to her father for their success, no mention of mom and jehovah.
Here is the speech:
i heard laurel and the wife heard yanny.
maybe someone can post the spoken word..
Yanny.
i have to say that the talk was very good.
instead of just repeating a jw manual , the speaker actually spoke about my brother!
there were a few scriptures with the jw hope but 80 % of the talk was actually about the life of my brother.
If family leaves the memorial meeting to the organization they will get the stale organizational pitch.
My personal experience is that if family wants the service to be personal, the family has to request it. One of the best ways to do that is to select who the speaker will be. Then spend a few minutes with the speaker to let him know that you want it to be personal.
It can be done.
Glad it worked out well in your case, min. Sorry to learn of the loss of your brother.

Oh man! I usually look at the last post in a thread before commenting on a post in the middle.
I knew better. And yet now I see that I stepped into a little poo.
Oh well. I'm backing out of this post.
Apologies to the OP.
*scraping poo off my shoe*

Interesting.

Watchtower instilled in us over and over again to *not* 'trust our guts'.
Thank you SOO much for taking time to comment on this thread. I really enjoyed reading your comments.
i have just received an email from an elder's wife regarding the new data protection laws.
between the lines it sounds like she has been asked to contact me.. she says they 'don't want to leave me out' so they want me to fill out the form as 'i'm still part of the congregation'.
also, my blood card needs updating, apparently.. the elder in charge will be in contact.. obviously, i'm not doing either, but what do i do?

They will share it with everyone and anyone whenever they want.
VERY good point.
Assembly Hall in Woodland Hills CA sold about 10 (??) years ago.
not sure where i picked this up:.
self explanatory science and medical advice from the faithful and brilliant servant class in brooklyn________________________________________thomas edison, the inventor and electrician, of phonograph and telephone fame, has been experimenting with the new light "x-rays.
" and has succeeded in taking a photograph through oak eight inches thick.
Terrifying to remember that some of us were very young children under guidance of our parents who believed this nonsense.
