  Aunt Jemima and Mrs.Buttersworth Need To Be Destroyed!

  we have to get rid of these racist relics.

  i propose that we destroy all these bottles of syrups and burn every pancake box !

  we need to get rid of anything that reminds us of anything negative concerning slavery.. in boston they decapitated the head of christopher columbus and got rid of his statue.

  i used to watch his videos on the monthly gb talks.

  he has went over the top a few times doing one video on why being liberal idiot is a good thing.

  he has made comments on the usa not knowing shit about what he was desperately trying to talk about.

  Forgive me if this is a silly question, but when you say "liberal" what exactly do you mean?

  To me, the word liberal means being more flexible and open to change depending on the need or circumstances. Does it mean something different in a political context?

  Also, is it that black and white? Is it either conservative or liberal? Is there no middle ground?

  Genuinely asking as my political interest only came after I left the witnesses 4 years ago.

  i have noticed as of late that google searches are heavily filtering searches and shopping.

  i know they keep track and monitor your activity but when i can not find things or articles because they don't fit googles bs naritive its time to leave.

  duck duck go is my replacement.

  TorBrowser is a good way to go if you dont want to be tracked. Also clears your history everytime you close the browser. A good thing to know for those of us who are PIMO or just like looking at porn on a shared computer.

  I'm waiting for the WTBTS for a recommended search engine.

  I imagine they'd call it NuLite and it'd send your search history direct to your local body of elders.

  p. 126 Heavenly whiskey, dentistry and manure
  "According to Sir Oliver Lodge's book 'Raymond', the spirit world is inhabited by spirit beings who have flesh but do not bleed. They wear tweed clothes, drink whiskey and have manure piles."

  He's describing Joseph Rutherford!

  One of my favourite WTF quotes:
  

  "If any overzealous doctor condemns your tonsils go and commit suicide with a case-knife. It's cheaper and less painful." Golden Age 1926 Apr 7 p.438

  'apostate replies' while preaching online.

  Apostate replies translates to “people who disagree and provide sources for their views”. Something JWs are unprepared for.

  How is everybody spending their lockdown time?

  I've been furloughed from work (forced "annual leave" with pay which doesn't affect my regular annual leave) for the past 2 months so I've had lots of time free to do whatever.

  I've spent the time productively by doing all those things I've said I'd get round to doing "one day":

  • Learning French. I've devoted as much time to it as I used to devote to studying and thinking about Watchtower in my uberJW days. So bare minimum I read some French a day. Have a 30 min lesson and have French radio on in the background as I potter around the house. I've come quite far. I'm conversational now. But I've decided it'll be something I'll do daily forever now.
  • I perfected Roast Potatoes. Thank you Jamie Oliver (BBC food) and my partner's sister for all the tips. An important addition to every British roast dinner.
    
  • I learned how to make Crème Brûlée from scratch. My partner's absolute favorite dessert. I received a French cookbook as a Christmas present last year so decided to give it a go. I actually enjoy making it and she enjoys eating it so it's a win-win.
  • Got back into guitar playing. I've been playing guitar since I was 15 (20 years ago) but stopped making any real progress about 10 years ago because I stopped pushing myself and was happy to know chords. So I picked up the guitar again and wrote a list of songs I'd like to learn properly and found lessons on YouTube.

  I've treated this lockdown as an opportunity seeing as we cant do much of what we want.

  I'd be interested in reading how you're all getting on and how you're spending this time?
