  A little off topic... I'll be moving...

  by Expanded-Mind in

  i'd appreciate getting some opinions about a decision i will shortly have to make.. i am moving soon and have the choice of two different apartments in two different towns.

  i am hoping this move will be one of the last that i have to make - i have moved frequently in my life - at least for a long, long while.. the apartment i like the least is in a town and a location that i love due to my history with, and connection to the area.

  the apartment i love is in a town and location i am not as crazy about, but it is still a really nice area.

  Travel to work? Available shopping, restaurants, whatever structure you need. Area in decline or going so upscale you wont fit.

  2700 years ago Jews ate pigs

  from haaretz newspaper:.

  what does a pig skeleton discovered in jerusalem say about first temple era jews?.

  the argument here is that sanctions on eating pork were only introduced in the 2nd temple era.. so what does that tell you bout biblical accuracy.. .

  Not even the governing body has dreams revealing sins or prophecy. Being annointed is a private matter. Probably happens while sitting at a desk

  I foresee a big fail in pushing electric and scrapping internal combustion. The grid, lithium, disposal, range, unicorns.

  Wait for a decline in the economy, standard of living, freedom. I get undercurrents of fewer short cool showers, dense housing, public transit, permission to travel.

  Splane`s war rhetoric

  the last talk o the saturday convention of jw was already often the centre of discussion, with all the name calling, logical fallacies and fear mongering.

  however, it was interesting, not just what and how splane adressed the matter, also what he actually had to admit.

  1) he had to admit, that the org is actually loosing court battles, left and right.

  My wife only noted the apostate warning part. Told me they are really active. Did not catch on that there are lawsuits being hushed up.

  I thought it funny he started with the "wicked men among you" scripture. There certainly are

  The stupid dems are tying to push BS in the infrastructure bill, who would have thought it.

  so i was listing to the news and in the infrastructure bill there is a part that will tax you on how many miles you drive.

  this is above the state and federal gas tax.

  so now they will control and monitor your millage and tax you on it.

  I think the mileage tracker will be GPS google put a tracker in an update on my phone. when I found it it showed the time and location I was, complete with an error showing me at a school for 2 hours. I was at a gun range and the school was apparently picked up. Of course Google lets us turn it off🙄

  There us a need to pay for roads but the schemes always seem to target lower income and rural. You need above average income to have a tesla and live in a core city apartment.

  Utopia is always just ahead.

  I can contrast the whole in my iwn conflicts. I admire machines, hate noise. I am, as the miners say, afraid of the dark, so dont like tunnel mines but also do not like the muhlenberg county open pits. And the reclaimed hollers aint the same.

  Concrete blocks used to be cinder blocks fly ash is a source of lithium. Fly ash is important for cement cement needs kilns run by gas. The roads need concrete and asphalt (oil). Plastic and rubber need oil. Steel needs coked coal.

  Paper bags are replacing plastic bags that replaced paper bags. Meantime the towel tp people are bragging about planting trees. You bet, they own huge commercial forests and trees are a crop. We can go back to a garden of eden that never was, the dark ages, 40 acres and a mule, or use industry to maintain civilization. take your choice

  i'm half listening in on my wife's zoom meeting.

  in my decade+ in the org, i don't remember ever getting into such minutia about jw hunting rules.. apparently, it's ok to kill an animal to use its skin as a clothing accessory, but it's not ok to kill an animal to use its antlers as a wall decoration.. not mentioned in the talk: whether or not its ok to kill an animal to wear its antlers as a hat.. .

  Not local needs. The part about not taking a mother bird and the eggs/ chicks. Despite the reasoning on being kind the real reason is to leave a breeding population.

  No mention here on how many guns is too many. I have one each for elk, deer, antelope, birds. And maybe one for the hell of it

  "You cannot fix stupid".

  Does this go along with the induction charging roadways and drones carrying chargers to land on your car?

  It seems the new charging stations will be run by the state so no more Exxon or Standard

  Back to the OP

  I am vaccinated with the unapproved Pfizer.

  There are reports of pandemic but we do not see it. What we see is the usual maladies and deaths. The TB, measles, lice are the bigger worry from the unvetted hordes
