i worked the election yesterday, here in california, poll worker, from 6 a.m. to 10:30 p.m. it was fun and interesting, went pretty smoothly, nice day.
it was very depressing to come home, look at the news, and find that the republicans now control the senate.. .
do you think canada would take me?
I vote Libertarian, as it happens. I think Republicans are greedy corporate scum who live off the masses. I think Democrats aren't much different. I think Americans are stupid to constantly bitch about oppression and then vote for the oppressors.
I disagree slightly with the Libertarians -- I do think we need a safety net for our poorest citizens and for children. I'm a peacenik and always have been.
Well, I'm disappointed, to say the least.

Poll worker -- $9.00/hr. 16-hour day. Lots of fun. Nice paycheck when it comes in a couple of weeks.
Plus, the polling place was a church. Take that, wtbts!

Do you think Canada would take me? I'm kind of old and broken down, but also kind of cute and I don't cause any trouble. Maybe they'd let me live there. I don't want to live in a country where the voters are that stupid. Maybe some other country with more sensible policies would let me in. . .

One of the prettiest pieces of music ever written
let me start off by acknowledging that my current mood/thoughts reflect the fact that ive watched a few documentaries recently (blackfish, surviving progress, etc.
) and they got me thinking about the future of mankind.
mainly the question, do i hold out hope for the future of mankind?.
I agree. It is quite possible that some loony running a country with nuclear power might just fire a nuclear weapon off, starting a really bad bad war. Or, some disease like ebola could cause massive death around the world. Most likely scenario is that humans will just keep polluting the earth until it just can't sustain life any more. How long? A few more generations of it and the world is doomed!
All I can do is vote, and contribute as little as possible to the pollution myself.
It is rather discouraging to see how fast the Islamic State nutsos have moved, one possible future is that religious extremists will get power over more and more of the world.
i am sure people convery to a religion to find peace and spiritual awakening.
i also bet many convert simply for love.
would you to assist " true love" if it required converting to a particular faith?.
No. I love my mind too much.
so what are you doing to enjoy yourself?
doesn't have to be for anyone around you, or have anything to do with jw world.
just something that you do for you and only you and that fills your soul (whatever that means).
Oh, forgot to mention Dr. Who. Although they could stand to get rid of their head writer, still I like the show even with the bad writing.

gardening, canning, cooking
knitting
thrift stores, yard sales
coffee, esp. coffee in the garden
road trips
where I live is wonderful
so what have been your experiences with sleep paralysis?
any connection to astral projection?
this has interested me recently as i used to have sleep paralysis quite often years ago.
I had those my last few years as a JW. Very scary, but couldn't move or scream or anything. Was told it was demons. Once I left the wtbts I never had them again. Could be my age, I just grew out of it. But I think it was the relief of getting out of the wtbts.
just wanted to wish everyone in canada a happy thanksgiving day.. .

Happy T-day! You can decide whether T refers to prayer or food. Thanksgiving or turkey
