  below i link the article.

  i thought some points on the claim were interesting.

  such as how prolonged direct exposure to sunlight hurts us vs other animals, sicknesses, etc.

  Diogenesister, you might be thinking of Blackwolf instead.

  That poster seems to be a teenage girl.

  GDPR: help for PIMOs

  we urgently need to offer "resistance strategy" help to pimos who are likely to be harassed by elders seeking their consent for wtbt$ to leech their data.

  what questions could pimos ask elders, that elders would be unable to answer?

  (thus buying time, because elder would need to "check with branch").

  Tell them you have had an issue with your data being stolen and your lawyer asked you to run any requests like this past him.

  Tell them you'll get back to him as soon as you hear from your lawyer.

  I mean...I generally shed my reptile skin and then put on sunscreen before going out in the sun, but that's just me...

  i know this thread has probably been covered in the past but i thought it would be nice for newbies and lurkers and just a reminder to those that left a while ago.. how has your life improved since leaving the cult?

  are you happy?

  have you made some amazing friends or maybe met an amazing partner in the world?.

  I grew up, and I couldn't imagine living an adult JW life.

  Oof. You mean a dawg? Four legs? Tail?

  Dog and Doug don't sound the same here. It's "dawg" and "Dug!"

  Thirty-Five Years Later

  in the market today, i walked down an aisle and glanced over at a middle-aged man and the woman beside him pushing a shopping cart.

  i couldn't place the man but recognized the somewhat younger woman, a former student.

  when the fellow started talking, i realized it was her brother, also a one-time student.

  It's a great feeling when your students tell you that they appreciate your lessons or your support or both.

  Hey, humbled.

  I never read Douglass until college, but I live near where he grew up, so a lot of his descriptions of places were very vivid to me because I literally knew where they were.

  Amazing life story. I teach it to my 4th graders. Proud to be a Marylander.

  http://www.blackpast.org/1857-frederick-douglass-if-there-no-struggle-there-no-progress

  This is from a speech by Frederick Douglass in 1857 a few years before the outbreak of the American Civil War.

  "Find out exactly what people will quietly submit to and you have found out the exact measure of injustice and wrong which will be imposed upon them, and these will continue till they are resisted with either words or blows, or with both."
