actors' acceptance speeches have often been a little dodgy - viewers don't care what political or social views actors may have, we typically appreciate actors acting well.. this year's oscars awards ceremony seems to be going above and beyond, however.. here's frances mcdormand's acceptance speech, in which she dedicates her victory to 'our wolf' and then howls like a bitch, lol.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u-_be0awgwk.
Johnny Depp is too busy being Johnny Depp to have to worry about actually working at his craft. (Tom Cruise fell down the same rabbit hole). When The Lone Ranger came out one of the critics said it should be called "Pirates of the Caribbean 5: Sparrow goes West"
I think Shawshank is one of the best movies ever made. It has developed a following and the producers are still taking money to the bank.
as a rule, there are 3 types.
one is the dramatic over the top person where a hangnail means you might have to get your finger cut off.. the second type is —who me, worry?
i’m not going to let too much of anything bother me unless it really is armageddon.. the third type is the person in between.
NO.
There are two types of people:
Those that can extrapolate from limited data
i'm so proud of my son.
he has persevered through 2 years of community college.
three of those semesters were at home because covid19 shut in person classes.
Congratulations

Is this really about the Woke movement or more about ratings and viewership. If we lump everything together the message gets muddled.
It isn't muddled, those two things go hand in hand. "Woke" films don't draw big audiences. In an effort to get the ratings back they produce crummy remakes of old hits. Neither wokeness nor remakes require creativity. Hollywood has forgotten that the first thing they need to do is entertain people. The death spiral will continue until they get back to basics.
i'm doing a little background research for a novel.
what is the craziest thing you heard a witness say was demonized, and what did they do about it?.
I heard a story shortly after I became a JW about somebody that parked their car on a hill. After they got out it rolled down the hill, something (demon) ran it into the ditch at the side of the road.
Of course we all knew that couldn't happen just because somebody forgot to set the brake.
the pandemic has made the situation worse for single young jw girls.. i'm hearing tons of sad stories of single jw girls who are going, or have gone into deep depression.
with many having thoughts of committing suicide and hoping for a better life in the new order.. the pandemic has made it almost impossible for young jw girls to find a suitable marriage mate.
especially since the single jw boys-men want young, gorgeous, thin, virgins, who look like models and summit to the headship arrangement.
The first paragraph sounds like they require a chaperone if if you're on opposite sides of the country talking on the phone. No wonder young JW's are messed up.

if someone comes to you with a knife or a gun, would you defend yourself if you could?
if someone tried to beat you up , would you physically engage, run away or just try to talk the person out of beating you up or robbing you?
if you did have a gun to defend yourself would you shoot to kill or would you simply aim for the ankle to incapacitate the person?
There's no such thing as shooting to wound someone or something. Guns and bullets do strange things, not intended by the shooter. You should assume that if you pull the trigger, what's in front of the gun might die. If it doesn't die, it's lucky.
i am in need of the current copy of the newest dpa blood card as some of the jw's in my mothers congregation are asking about if she signed the latest copy after she passed today.
i am curious as to why they are asking about this specifically and not offering condolences on the loss of my mother.
there has been some shady interactions leading to my mother requesting me to talk to certain elders to request that certain people not interact with her further.
Thanks Atlantis, that worked. I just looked at a few of them and didn't see any substantial differences. I don't know why anybody would want to see a DPA after the person's passed. But then, the WTBS does lots of thins that don't make sense.

My condolences to you and your family. It isn't easy, I know.
My computer doesn't want to open Atlantis' documents. Are they different from the ones posted earlier? Knowing the Watchtower, I suspect its about money but I can't imagine what a DPA has to do with that, unless they are trying to determine who might be appointed to settle the estate.
