There is not much new to say about anything that hasn’t been said yet, both here, in print, etc. Some of us hear it better or get more insight from one account or storyteller. Repetition is a learning tool for many. This site and all the new YouTube stories, etc-there is nothing new but new people awaken, new mediums, new scandals(ssdd) mean that there will always be new books and stories and newspapers . Why not Lloyd? Or Barbara or pale emperor. Who was speaking of writing one also wasn’t he?

I’m no longer invested . Seeing my mom after months away. . . Just reminds me of her futility and the waste of her time and efforts . It’s so sad. I have no regrets leaving. All my mistakes are my own and I’m so glad I didn’t sacrifice my life to the parasite religion that would have sucked away the color and the travel and the growth and curiosity and experience of my life. All she can do is tsk tsk about whatever she doesn’t approve of and gossip. Her best friend is honestly this sweet woman, not a JW, much younger who helps her and has her back. She talks bad about her lifestyle (single. Self supporting) but clearly only justifies her friendship because she has consented to go to memorial a few times (nothing else, she is a Christian who isn’t religious but who is a follower of the most basic Christlike stuff-she’s nice). But mom doesn’t recognize the goodness, only commend about her observing holidays and votes in spite of mom preaching at her. For years. She’s hateful to this nice lady who is kind to her

There are exposes right and left. Australia, Canada , UK, USA. News reports, court cases. No one really seems to give a shit. There are JWs in the airports! No ones talking but that guy sitting there doesn’t care and doesn’t want to know. He has happy family crap sitting on his cart and you know that statistically he is not communicating with at least one member of his family.
They dont care. Their human consciences have been mutated and perverted. They will give up their lives happily to serve the Borg.
im so damn sick of it! I want to collectively shake some sense into the lot of them but it was already shaken out completely , apparently.

I'm in Oklahoma City. The sun is shining, there are cowboys and steak and beer. People are nice in Oklahoma.
Go outside and do something small or big for your neighbor. Life is better when YOU are the good you want to see in the world. BE the good.

How do you deal with people who do not like you?
by usualusername1 inhi guysin the last year i have started to socialise a lot more.
namely comedy and a tennis social club.. for a variety of reasons i find socialising tough.
in my tennis club a couple of women have been extremely rude to me and i have blocked one from my phone and refuse to speak to both.. is my behaviour extreme?paul.

I think refusing to be civil is a extreme that demeans those women and makes others uncomfortable around you. We all experienced shunning and felt for the shunnned. Being civil is not pretending anything, it’s polite and part of living in civilization. If they are harassing you blocking their calls is legit and you have no obligation to take any call even if you just don’t like them. But refusing to speak in public is awkward for everyone. Not necessary. You don’t need to extend any warm fuzzies but a lax handshake will send the message without being rude

I remember all the talk about how we didn’t celebrate he unscriptural Christmas but the decreed remembrance of the death , then quoting scripture about how the day of ones death is better then the day of ones birth and therefore we commemorate the death of Jesus
blah blah blah

New business standards
by JaniceA inhttps://www.usatoday.com/story/money/careers/employment-trends/2018/03/09/tattoos-ties-out-office-fashion/410081002/.
ties are out.
tats are acceptable.

Ties are out. Tats are acceptable. Will JW change their dictates since acceptable business standards have veered away from dress for success standards of 50s?
Anyone else kind of amused by the fact that they want you to dress like you are successful in business office world, but the first suggestions about clothes are how a new recruit can find a suitable suit or dress at the charity store? Then you are discouraged for striving for the material success that they want to portray? No hypocrisy there.

I don't know much about masons though my father in law had a memorial or something by his local lodge which the family attended. He was prominent in his community.
My limited understanding is that one initiates and then rises through the ranks. Wouldn't there be records of them before they entered the higher levels even if the higher degrees are not necessarily recorded?
I was with father In law at death. No toga was requested or oiffered.
I dont believe Catholics are accepted as Masons or they are not allowed (religiously) to join. This was a contentious issue between Catholic husband and his dad.
