  The EC gives my state a say ( so far). Los angeles has more people than my entire state. The problem is not the EC as such but the extremists who want to bully everyone. Mob rule

  That asking for ID is so troubling to many. My state lets you use a water bill to establish residence.

  The travel/dressing time is reduced. And it is far easier to get a drink and snack or browse something else.

  Cut it all off and tuck in the corners. Also remove some muscle mass to make strength equal.

  Pretty much sure Biden just reads the prompter and does as told.

  I would say 25 to 30 for any changes as that is when the brain develops.

  the wainui-o-mata hall is closing and from 01 february they will be relocated to the 200 seater hall in newlands.

  johnsonville is merging with the wellington west congregation and will be known at wellington central also to be located in the newlands hall.

  wellington east will remain in the hall in kilbirnie at this stage but rumour has it that this hall will also be sold and they will make up the third congregation sharing the newlands hall.

  Locally they ask families to use one feed, so the 60 or so equals 120 to 140 people. i guess 2/3 to 3/4 are blanked.

  Letters, incidental. Extra zoom meetings for text and " meeting for service" on zoom.

  Lots of coercion to attend the extra non official meetings. All on zoom

  The usual lack of any real friendship or casual phone calls.

  I have no friends left--two wife's friends one non believing husband of same. One could almost be called a girlfriend, even wife admits that. Family

  We are just waiting under the bed for the end.

  Being Removed From Facebook and Twitter

  by minimus in

  i have a very good friend who has been banned from facebook simply because he makes remarks positive about president trump and negative toward the democratic party.

  he has tried to get back on facebook and it appears there is no way for him to return.

  people are being removed from social media platforms simply because they have a different political view.

  I was reading accounts of this on a gun forum and got the something went wrong message. Believe me, gun forums are pro trump, so Google must have gotten an algorithm to intercept it

  New terminology? “Donations in Support of Kingdom Interests Worldwide”

  by Ultimate Reality in

  petra/atlantis recently posted and supplied a document on donations.

  what stood out to me, besides the usual nonsense, was the phrase, “donations in support of kingdom interests worldwide.”.

  this appears to be a change in terminology from donations in support of the “worldwide work of jehovah’s witnesses.”.

  I wonder if they use the interest accrued between the time of donation and transfer to the locals or if there is a handling cut.

  The locals can yse the money as seen fit and the CO will make sure they see it right.

  My landlord always asks me for donations if I need a new roof, carpet, paint, furnishings, HVAC; and keeps track of my savings. 🙄🙄

  We do know they spend it on themselves.
