  How Many Masks Will You Wear?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there are recommendations that we should start doubling up on masks.

  some have even suggested that tripling masks would even be better!

  what’s your opinion of wearing numerous masks?

  Me too. But having to go always has been a bigger worry for me, I do my best to touch only one thing which I know where has been. I have sympathy for women

  Zoom meetings

  by molybdenum in

  2. humour

  being pimo i attend the meetings regularly over zoom.

  ( i have to as my wife is a dyed -in - the wool, and stick-in-the mud pioneer witness.

  i have no possibility of leaving as it would create havoc in my life and at 68 years of age i just don't want the hassle of having to cope with the ramifications of disassociating myself.

  I too am a spineless coward, same situation. I seldom " dress appropriately" and stay off camera as much as possible. Open the meeting, then can peruse other sights. Sometimes look up misused/pronounced words or fact check. Sometimes I rest my eyes. The chatter before reminds me of an insane asylum. More each meeting seem to have no picture on. Using a laptop there is little detail but I look at decorations. So far no xmas trees or pics of MLK or flags but you never know. I really want to set up in the den and have a gun hanging on the wall.

  The bday is no big deal for me, I just have to check for expirations

  Except it sounds like a 1936 movie or captain kangaroo now

  We did have a convention speaker everyone loved. He sounded and acted like a black Pentecostal revival preacher but nobody seems to catch on

  Who Is To Blame For the World's Insanity? Not The Leaders But Their Followers

  by The Bethelite in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there are 1000's of wacked out ideas on the planet.. a crazy little man with a mustache in a beer hall in munich germany in 1923 had some crazy ideas for sure....he starting with a dozen people who thought his insanity was a good idea.

  in just 22 years his insanity effected the entire world with millions dead.

  he duped 95 million germans alone...who thought his insanity was a good idea.. another crazy little man with a beard, started in the basement of a church in pennsylvania in the1870's.

  Someine takes a little power and consolidates it. Then the masses are given a choice from those only.

  That quote is actually from Pogo drawn by Walt Kelly

  What gets me us they seem to idolize some of the leaders and use them for reading. To convey information to the US you need no regional accents, slang or such. In England, Australia, India use someone else.

  Once again it seemed to be experiences someone had where in one week they accomplished more than a whole congregation does in a year.

  if your sex is only what you say it is, without any reference to biological reality, .

  You forgot the W and Z chromosomes.

  As for climate, it has always changed, the problem is how to deal with it without causing mass unrest.

  Side note: science says African Americans react differently to medicine. Look up octoroon. Personally I am a septaroon, put that in your math science conondrum

  A lot of us are here because everything freddy wrote came true....AND...nothing happened.

  Wife yells at me about studying. It takes all of 10 minutes if you watch the whole video. As for reading the awake it has already been memorized because it is all reprints
