  • Per my last email, this is on my radar, but I really don't have the bandwidth to deal with it at the moment. I'm just following up with you really quickly, please advise on how'd you'd like to proceed. Correct me if I'm wrong, but couldn't Tanya in HR take lead on this?

  • Wanna watch a movie?

  • You are a good parent. My mom introduced me as a child, and it's still one of our favorite movies, and something we enjoy watching together.

  • I mean, realistically, if everyone was addicted to crack, literally everyone, it wouldn't be that different. Crack would be way more available, likely with like, crack restaurants and shit. Poor people would basically crack-starve the way they food starve now. Same shit, different day. Except now we know the governmental officials are high as fuck, instead of just suspecting as much.

    And I imagine my house would be cleaner. Zip zip zip.

  • What brought you to Lemmy?

    Jump

  • The phenomenal mod of @letterboxed@lemmy.world made a post on the subreddit letting us know that they were making a community on here because of the reddit insanity. Came over and joined same day and really haven't looked back since. Lemmy is amazing, and all the best parts of what reddit great, without the bull.

  • I'll be honest, I'm not familiar with new monasticism.

    But yes, I loved growing up in the Baptist church, I loved the sense of community, the feeling of connection. But the politics of the far right that has taken over these once radical traditions is honestly depressing. It makes me sad to know that if I ever have kids, they will not be able to have those same experiences. I wish there was something similar in the more lefty churches, like the episcopals, the the United church of Christ, or the metropolitan community Church, but it seems like, in my area at least, mainline and fringe lefty churches don't generally offer those some kind of things. :/ and of course, there is no Christian anarchist community to speak of.

    What is a story from the internet that will remain in your mind forever?

  • Jesus, Mary and Joseph that poor guy.

    I've had some "thought I was into this" moments in my life, but thankfully I've always started small and worked my way up. Well, with one exception. That was rough. But never anything like that. My God.

  • Poor people should just simply try working for their father's company for a year and then taking a VP position at a small fortune 500. I don't understand why they won't try that, and pull themselves up by their bootstraps. Tsk tsk tsk.

    I actually have an appointment with my doc today because of stupid stinky COVID, so I'll ask her about this. I really appreciate the advice. :)

  • How freaking awesome would that be, man? I grew up on VBS and Kawanis, Wednesday night dinners and Sunday school at Baptist churches in the south. I loved those times, but would never dream of putting my kids (If I'm ever so fortunate) in those same groups because of the awful politics. It would be amazing if there were something like that that taught radical Christianity. We'd live in a different country.

  • As a Christian Anarchist, this is one of my favorite facts.

    My dear brother in Christ, not only did our Lord whip the money changers, He took the time to construct the whip and contemplate just how badly He was gonna fuck up those bastards.

  • It's true.

  • Thanks to the local porn store, I have had many an eventful evening with another meek bottom.

    ... also my experience, give a meek bottom some kind of hardware and an opportunity, and they turn into nearly violent tops. Lmao

  • Thanks for the tips!

    My doc has me using a diabetic lotion, does that change anything? I'll definitely see if I can find something with jojoba, too. I'm always looking for something better. Haha.

    Also really appreciate the pronunciation guide, because I would've sounded like an ass when I asked for it otherwise. Lol. Thanks.
