  Slim. Most of those videos are reruns. Of course the new study stuff is largely cut and paste.

  gotta love jwdotorg as usual regurgitating the financially/politically motivated (and thoroughly disproved) climate change propaganda:.

  Poor Little Dewey, Watering Flowers Alone in Space

  by Simon in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  one of the earliest movies i can remember watching, probably because of the heart-wrenching ending with little dewey alone in space, watering the flowers in the garden, was silent running.

  i'm not going to admit to how long i sobbed after watching that.. apart from it being a pioneering movie about environmental apocalypse and the people involved going on to create other great scifi movies, and the robots being the inspiration for r2d2 in starwars ... it reminds me of growing up.. it's now a 50 year old movie.

  but back i thought the little robot was real.

  I felt vad for dewey looking at his companions leg left after the solar storm.

  Bruce Dern is always a favorite.

  Entirely unrelated save Mr. Dern the movie Nebraska is very entertaining.

  The present inflation is strapping most of us IF we wanted to help. Energy has doubled or more to run the AC and heat at the hall. Gasolinefor travel has tripled. I'm sure the locals will give a resolution to send an extra contribution from the local cushion.

  Remember do not earmark any funds, they will use it wisely🙃

  Illustrations are just that. I remember one of an apparently naked woman having clothing being rushed to her. The clothing obstructed the view.

  The bigger problem is the misleading of the future. technology with no support

  Rates of PIMOs in bethel as apposed to R&F

  by joe134cd in

  with all the bethel leaks.

  i started to think about the levels of pimos with in bethel as apposed to the rank and file.

  would there be higher rates of pimos bethel due to seeing the more unsavoury side of it.

  The leaks cant be newbies. So there must be some long time upper echelon who are keeping their " "retirement" and aiding apostates. We have had exleriences of bethel life that ring true.

  Nobody notices the clowns. Cognitive dissonance. Same for the mean, foolish, drunk, dull impressions we get watching the others.

  I think once it was thought an embryo would be reimplanted in the mother. Does that mean having nonotuplets for some?

  The more I reason on all the bs t h e more I think we better live a good life now as we get one go round. For someone who was gonna live forever the thought of a world without me is/was hard.
