now they start inviting to their "commemorate the death of jesus" event.

it always makes me a bit sad.

i don’t think i could endure to watch it myself today.

I remember when I was dating in my early 20s getting a talking to by an elder because I went to my girlfriends congregation to "celebrate" the memorial there. Like it mattered what building you were in. I'm literally getting dressed up to pass crackers and wine to somebody.
I always found the term "celebrate" the memorial as a contradiction in terms. This didn't feel like a celebration. There was no joy. All very serious.
A complete waste of time.
Remember in 2001 when the memorial was at their homes (on account of the pandemic) and elders letter said if there's no anointed people present you dont even need the actual emblems?
I mean, why bother even having it?!!

Between $500-$6,000 a month just knocking out a few videos a month? That's nothing to sneeze at.
Let's hope the downward trend continues. Perhaps he'll resort to washing windows like the good old days in one of Manchester congregations.

That sister in the video above made a good point, “his rebuttals are longer than the conventions themselves, you might as well GO to the convention”. He’s so fucking boring.
That was the reason I stopped watching him years ago. In the early days I'd crack open a beer and get the scoop for half an hour. One hour max. Now? It's like 4 hours per half for each convention day. 24 hours to get the info from 1 convention weekend?!!
My time is far to precious and valued to waste it on Watchtower bullshit.

And now his Patreon donations are going towards legal fees.
Where does it end?

Yup. Or it could be a dude.
I think it is. And I think that's what he's referring to as "messed up sexually". If that's the case he needn't be ashamed of it and merely should talk to his wife about it. And that's it.
At least, I hope that's it and not "something" worse. Anyone who's asked him to confirm or deny on Twitter has ended up blocked.

lloyd's twitter statement this morning states:.

today photos are being circulated that djana disclosed privately to someone she assumed to be a trusted friend.

i want to make it clear that the woman in the photos is in her 20s and not a sex worker.

I’ve had them for a few days.
I was just told not to share them.
I think that's wise. Who knows what the legal consequences would be? Although I'm sure they'll pop up online somewhere.

I've yet to see these "photos" but, watch this space.

Lloyd Evans is a train wreck.

i don't know if someone has already posted this, but lloyd has put up a video talking about his hooking up with hookers.

personally that does not bother me but the way he is handling it is such a god damn train wreck.

this guy is insane..

I am one who can seperate the art from the artist. I like a lot of Micheal Jackson's music. The guy had a lot of talent. But he was IMO a child molester. He was a mentally ill person with lot of other issues and should have went to jail. But that does not mean his art was bad. The same with Evans, he did a lot of good work in exposing the cult. But his ego keeps getting in the way. I am sorry to see this happen only because the cult can hold him up and say see what apostates are rally like?
Im with you there. Admire the work, not the person. What they produced, not them themselves.
