SUSPENSIVE ACT: SOCIAL DECORUM

[wiirocku]

Ephesians 6:12 (NIV) - For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

Ye Qingyu went back to work while mourning the love of his life and for once I support someone hitting Tantai Jin. Because he needs to be shaken out of this situation to go back to work and being a great emperor.

Was teasing Gill about her past Royai sins but I do think it's funny to see people insist they're only not together because of a non-fraternization policy when nothing of the sort is ever referenced in the text. (This came up because it was mentioned in the propaganda for one of those long time pining ship polls.) Extrapolating the existence of such a policy is reasonable - you see them frequently in workplaces with hierarchical power dynamics, and apparently it may be referenced in some supplemental material. However, if I were Father using the state alchemist program to fast track 5 sacrifices who've opened the portal, I would want my candidates to be forming strong relationships with people, and if those people are fellow soldiers who are a lot more likely to die than civilians, even better. It's strategically sound to at the very least grant your state alchemists a waiver. (It would also be strategically sound to start bumping off their family members, but the guy is not proactive.)

Anyway I just think it would be funnier if people in the military are allowed or even encouraged to hook up with their coworkers and they were just like that for personal reasons.

I took a stand at work today. I raised an 'integrity concern" about a leadership decision that I'm expected to carry out with my team and it is unethical. Work has been a grind lately, but I can handle that. It hasn't been easy for my team, and I can handle that too. But this most recent thing handed down crossed a line. I could feel it in my gut as soon as I was told about it. The feeling in my gut was confirmed when they wouldn't put it in writing. I don't believe I'm going to lose my job over it, but my job and my team will be under a microscope because I'm refusing to carry out an unethical decision that I did not make. I'm ready for it. I'm standing on a firm foundation of my recovery and my higher power rather than fear and ego. I will continue to be humble and keep my emotions in check. I will continue to ask my higher power for acceptance, courage, strength, and wisdom. Most of all, I have hope because I have chosen to take a leap of faith. *deep breath* - okay, one day at a time.

Night in the Woods and Pathologic 2 are literally the same game, beyond a few superficial contrasts in presentation there isn’t a single difference.

April 2, 2024 Verse Of The Day

[biblebloodhound]

Have a Healthy Spiritual Heart (Matthew 12:9-14)

Asking questions out of a desire to make a point, instead of asking out of sincere curiosity, is a telltale sign of the small and shriveled heart.

Going on from that place, he went into their synagogue, and a man with a shriveled hand was there. Looking for a reason to bring charges against Jesus, they asked him, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?” He said to them, “If any of you has a sheep and it falls into a pit on the Sabbath, will you not take hold of it and lift it out? How much more valuable is a person than a sheep! Therefore it…

You can also catch up with this via MCC’s YouTube channel (just give us time to get the video uploaded). ‘And a lean, silent figure slowly fades into the gathering darkness, aware at last that in this world, with Great Power there must also…

TRUTH about the Benghazi Attack - Forgotten History

[wiirocku]

Ephesians 6:12 (NKJV) - For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.

2 Corinthians 12:9

[ezekieltobiasfletcher]

Keep It Simple

The worst of my bout with COVID is over. Tomorrow will be two weeks since I noticed the uncomfortable tingle in my throat. Yesterday marks one week since I suffered the worst of it. I am on the mend, but some symptoms still linger. As much as I want them to go away, I need these remaining mild symptoms to linger a little while longer as a reminder. I need to be reminded of the promises I made to my higher power that I would take better care of myself. To sleep when I am tired, and not to use substinances, screens, and people to distract myself from the work and pains of living my life on life's terms. I need to be reminded of how honest I was with myself as I pleaded through prayer to survive this virus. I need to be reminded that I will not find my salvation in thinking about what I need to do. I will only save myself by focusing on my higher power and walking my talk. If I want things to be different, then I need to continue breaking from my old habits and coping mechanisms and act as-if, being different, everyday, one day at a time.

I had very little appetite while I was in the depths of COVID. For a few days, all I could tolerate was Lipton Noodles packets with some added rice. The first day I felt a little better, I knew I needed to consume calories, protein, and fiber to help my decimated digestion system. I decided to keep it simple, and made myself two eggs, scrambled in the pan, and two slices of wheat toast with butter. I also decided to nourish my soul by playing one of my favorite games with my mind. I call it, "look how lucky I am..."

I was raised by an early Boomer mother, born in the latter half of the 1940's. She was raised by parents who grew up during the depression, and she also spent a great deal of time with her maternal grandparents, who together with my maternal grandparents, all survived The Great Depression. The love and hardships that my mom was raised with gave her the ability to always find silver linings and to make do with what she had. I will write more about her someday, but for today, I just want you to know that I am very grateful for her and her simple, everyday values that bring me comfort when I need it most. My mother's spirit is part of the great amalgamation that is my "higher power".

As I was making my breakfast, I put on a YouTube Music playlist called: Depression Era, Golden Age of Radio. I remembered stories I was told about what it was like living through world wars, the 1918 flu, and the Great Depression. While preparing my meal, these memories of stories from my family made me thankful to have a stove, cookware, a toaster, sliced bread, butter, eggs, salt and pepper, and a warm home with indoor hot water plumbing to live in. By my grandparents and great grandparent's standards, I have everything I need to live a good and simple life. By simply having a job and a home in the United States, I am in the top 5% of the world. Look how lucky I am.

As horrible as COVID has been for me, it helped me get to bed earlier, I haven't had any marijuana in two weeks, I've limited my screen time, I removed all the social media apps from the home screen of my phone, I've logged off from work by 5:30pm each day, I'm being more intentional about my meals, and with not getting the munchies from the pot, I'm not snacking all the time like Scooby and Shaggy. And as shitty as being sick was, literal pun intended, I am back to my pre-COVID lockdown weight. So yeah... I'm letting this recent mental bottoming out affect me, and I'm getting out of my own way and drawing even closer to my higher power. Look how lucky I am to be alive and be able to change for the better.

For what it's worth, that meal of eggs, toast, and a small glass of orange juice, it was the most delicious fucking meal I have had in a long time. I never want to forget the depth of gratitude I felt on that morning; ever.
