CLOSED STARTER for @envychosen

"Was that a goat they just wheeled out?"

Sivana Industry's newest addition isn't anything special. Really, he isn't here voluntarily either. He's a curious thing, asking a lot of questions and seemingly unbothered when poked and prodded, and despite being told otherwise, he seems to favor a human form.

"I get them and horses mixed up. Bovines all look the same, they all have hooves and horns and whatever. I think horses have horns... "

He's chatty because he's nervous. He looks pretty pathetic behind his little glass cage, too. His capture was an easy one, this Shadow isn't the brightest. He hasn't met Sivana yet, really, but something tells him he's not going to like it.

oh my fuckinggod im a massiverucking. isiot. My. i fucking. forgot.mybote. book. at home. AND I had homework. For next week. Wehre i eas supposrd to. Have my notwbook. im. fuckng. Sorry i keep failing on being nice to myself but Im justso. im so. im a bits Tupid:(

[moveslikejaggeria]

AND WE START SEASON THREE! im about halfway through so let’s get started

episode one: interesting start. LOVE the time consistency of now the doctor comes up to martha and takes off his tie and then later in the episode we see him go back and time to do this. such a silly guy. but why would he admit himself to a hospital?? what if someone other that martha had taken his pulse? someone who would alert other people and the authorities. my guy could’ve hid himself away easy enough

martha jones should’ve been the perfect companion. they robbed her of glory. just the lines “who are you” “the doctor” “so am i if i ever pass my exams” are SO brilliant. a double doctor team!! problem is i remember martha being worse than she is, and we’ll get into why later. she deserves better frankly. they wrote her so shite, they did.

anyway, intriguing episode! good concept, fascinating and intriguing! little old lady is the bad guy and i Love when the doctor pretends to be an isiot. if im maintaining my “smash or pass” rating on episodes, this one’s a smash (watch). it introduces martha and is just an interesting one.

episode two: Shakespeare! and bbc says he’s gay (win) and shakespeare takes a fancy to martha. although there’s a comment about political correctness i dont like, but i suppose it was 2009 or whatever. im sure david tennant had a Field day with this episode and im so glad for him. just for that it gets a smash •} but its a pretty good episode. a bit boring (the enemies are alien witches) and we start to get in the weakness of martha’s character (her crush on the doctor)

episode three: we’re back to new new york (or new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new new york or whatever) and martha makes a great point about how rose got to go to the pretty part with crabapple grass and a pretty skyline and she’s stuck in the slums. ive now become a martha defender: she deserve better.

also, they start out and there are people there, but then we learned that everyone not on the motorway died?? or maybe i misunderstood. maybe the people in the slums survived? there’s a homophobic cat and that’s good enough reason for me to give this one a pass, but important information: the face of boe has died. goodbye face of boe

episode four and five: a two-parter! and boy is this one weird. and not in a doctor who way of weird, or in an interesting weird. pig-human hybrids weird. a bunch of british people pretending (and mostly failing) to have thick new york accents. a human dalek weird.

anyway, the creative cult of daleks from last season are back and the doctor sums of my point beautifully: “the daleks keep surviving while i lose everything” first his whole race of people and now rose and, jesus christ, just let the daleks die and the doctor have this one victory. but alas. they kill the human dalek and then the dalek humans (two separate things, believe me) kill two more daleks, and then the last one teleports away. andrew garfield is in it, so if you’re a stan, watch this one. otherwise i give it a solid Pass

episode six: this one is interesting. the doctor brings martha home and is like “goodbye” and then discovers something and is like “never mind” and makes a Terrible impression on martha’s family (who are mostly lovely people, by the way, so this is mostly on him). a guy tries to rejuvenate himself but ends up waking up old dormant scorpion or lizard genes or whatever and goes crazy. he ends up dying in a church. nice to talk about the human condition and what would we be without death? what would we strive for? what would have meaning. i give this one a thumbs up and a smash

episode seven: oh, yeah, so last episode the doctor dumped martha back off at home but then she stood up for herself and now she’s an official companion. good for her and i would probably do the same, but he does it so reluctantly!! he needs to get over rose so badly. martha, you deserve so much better.

anyway. we arrive on a spaceship that is headed for a collision with a sun (not our sun, this is important) so it’s really fucking hot. turns out this sun is Alive and the captain illegally scooped energy from the sun and hurt the sun-creature, so the creature is possessing the crew and burning them alive. martha and a guy almost die, but they don’t, and the guy sort of falls in love with her. it’s kind of endearing. the doctor gets infected, but because he’s not human, he survives. the sun-creature-fuel is returned, the captain flings herself into the sun, the doctor makes some snooty comments about humans, and the day is saved. honestly, you can smash or pass if you’d like.

oh, and importantly: martha’s mom is talking to the government. this is important. she’s kind of made out to be a bit of a bad guy, but honestly the doctor kinda brought this on himself. he should’ve made a better impression. been less of an asshole

episode eight and nine: i gave a pass to the last two parter, but this one is a heavy and absolute Smash. not only is it a goody, but it’s plot important too. so the doctor has rewritten his biology and turned human so he can hide from this alien family who are Really good at smelling. im not kidding. he’s dragged martha into this and i use those words carefully bc he has taken them to england 1913. so martha, who is a maid, not only gets picked on for being a woman, but also a black woman. even the human doctor gets in on the racism. its…yeah

the doctor has put his timelord consciousness inside a pocketwatch, which one of the students, who’s a bit psychic, steals. he’s kind of an ass to martha, although it’s implied that she’s his favorite maid. oopsie daisy! the doctor fell in love and when the alien family arrives to take out the doctor (or steal his consciousness), he doesn’t want to change back

there are a bunch of banger lines, like the aliens know that world war i is coming next year, and the school that the doctor and martha at is teaching the boys how to fight and load machinery and all that, so the aliens ask the headmaster “will the boys thank you? will they thank the man who taught them that [war] was glorious?” and damn. the doctor—a pacifist who hates guns—starts the fight and picks up a gun, because he’s just Oh So Human. but do you know what else is oh so human? love. and the doctor did not account for his human self falling in love (to be fair, the plain was the be there for three months so like. the doctor is supposed to be this sort of…they say it best as “a dark prince of romance” but in three months? really?) and the human doctor is like “what kind of a man didn’t think about falling in love” or whatever. tennants acting in the whole thing is so wonderful. he is so good at acting and like,,, he really shows off here. so good

later, when the doctor changes back, he talks to the human woman he had fallen in love with and she absolutely rips him a new one. about how if the doctor hadn’t come here, no one would’ve died. and how human doctor was braver than time lord doctor because human doctor gave up his life and future for time lord doctor, but time lord doctor wouldn’t do the same (is this making any sense)

the ending is weird. i should say that the actor who plays the alien son in this is Really Good. i mean he’s terrifying, but it’s good. give him an emmy or whatever. but he locks them away for ever in weird places because “be afraid when a good man goes to war” or whatever or “beware of the wrath of a timelord”. and poor martha. she admits her crush to human doctor and then because they’re the same person (sorta) the doctor knows this know and they just brush it off but

martha’s whole character is so undermined by her crush on the doctor! half the time she’s a badass doctor who is awesome and gets shit done and all that and half the time she’s pining after this moody man who doesn’t give her the time of day because he’s sill in mourning over his ex. you deserve better martha!! she turns down all these love interests because she’s so loyal to the doctor and he only gives her pity friendship!! when she demands it!! ugh. martha couldve been so great but noooo. Everyone loves the doctor and wants to kiss him or whatever and martha is just the same. whatever.

i have been inspired by @becausegoodheroesdeservekidneys to rewatch Doctor Who because I find their chronological journey endlessly intriguing and endearing and has reminded me of my favorite episodes

going into it i have to say that my favorite doctors probably go 10-9-12-11 (even though im aware they’ve messed a bit with the numerics?? i mean tennant-eccleston-capaldi-smith) and my favorite companion by far is donna. her relationship and banter with the doctor is So perfect (esp post rose). rose is always great and she is an excellent foil to both 9 and 10. martha wouldve been so good!! if not for her crush on the doctor!! ruins her character and im so glad she eventually moves on and fulfills her badass-ery (although im not pleased it was the military -_-). amy was…i think a wet sock is truly a great description and rory is…worse. i think they did clara just as dirty as martha and i remember disliking her, but i dont remember much or why so maybe its just bc she was so poorly utilized. and bill. bill my beloved. she, too, deserved so much better.

anyway i watched episode one and. eccleston’s doctor is meaner than i remember. i think he needs more time to warm up to rose. and the reason i didnt like mickey is bc. he is useless and also treats rose poorly (which i think he improves as the series continues but, he is Awful in this episode). there are so many episodes i vaguely remember and get so excited to watch again!!

I just want to tell you guys that last night I went to an Arctic Monkeys concert and there was like a group of 5-6 people that have clearly never went to a concert in their lives that were insistent on moshing on Arctic Monkeys for some reason and a dad was there with two 14yo girls and he left them to go into the moshpit and the girls were almost hit multiple times and a guy wearing a Hellfire Club t-shirt went to protect them because their father was literally in the moshpit that was endangering them.

For the Good of the Team

“Oh, lighten up.” Diana huffed, running nimble fingers over the scowling man’s stomach. To her surprise, and joy, Bruce cracked a smile and twitched away from her. 

“Fine, I’ll go to your movie night.” He relented, lopsided smile adorning his face as he turned back to his computer screens.

To say Diana was shocked would be an understatement. Bruce never gave in to any of their requests that he join them in…well, anything.

~~

“I can not believe you slept through the whole movie.” Diana sounded amused, rather than angry.

“I said I would come to the movie night. I never said I would watch the movie.” Bruce pointed out, the corner of his mouth tilted up into a smirk.

“It’s hardly team-building if one of us misses the entire movie.”

“How is watching Jason Bourne a team building exercise?” Now it was Bruce’s turn to look bemused.

“Well, for starters, you could have learned some defensive techniques.” Diana was the one smirking now, as she crowded into Bruce’s personal space.

“Are you implying that I need help with my hand-to-hand combat?” Bruce laughed, standing up straighter as Diana stood toe-to-toe with him.

“I am implying that you are terrible at defending against the lightest of touches.” Diana’s hands moved faster than Bruce could track, fingers skittering over his flat stomach.

Bruce grunted, instinctively taking a step back and latching onto Diana’s wrists, ignoring the fact the he was only able to catch them because she allowed it.

“See? Terrible.” Diana laughed.

Irony pro life idiots like you care so much about a damn fetus bo after the baby is born, not caring that this child is victim of sexual abused from religious figures or relatives, or be killed in gun violence inside schools. Isiots like you are not pro life, are pro life until the baby is born

Good Evening Anon,

You must be in so much pain to say these words. I know how noisy the world is right now these days and stress can get to the best of us. I want to let you know I have kept this in my drafts for some time, praying for you since the day I received it. I want to let you know that your voice is heard and I want to help you. Below, I have written out over time some details to your message to help you see through my eyes, as well as providing materials and resources you are absolutely free to explore, no pressure. I pray that God blesses you and snuggles you close to His most Sacred Heart so you can find peace again. Thank you for stopping by. 🕊

“Irony pro life idiots like you care so much about a damn fetus bo after the baby is born…”

A fetus is stage of human development, usually after two months of conception, meaning a human that is 8 weeks old. Every human being was once a fetus. (You were one too.) Being pro life means to care about life at ALL stages, from conception to death, no matter how old the person is when they die. Pro life cares about all people of every ethnicity, race, gender, age, schooling, job or no job, living situation, financial status, family status, sexuality, faith or no faith, born and unborn etc, every single life. The reason why you are probably seeing more things about the pro life movement talking about the unborn is that in my country they have Roe v. Wade making lots of news with a document that was leaked. Being pro life means you are against abortion. The bill for Roe v. Wade is about abortion. Killing any human being at any stage of human life is morally wrong.

-*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*-

Since this is a Catholic blog, I will explain that abortion is not one of the Ten Commandments made by God. In addition, abortion is not a sacrament. In fact, abortion takes innocent lives, directly violating one of the Ten Commandments, which says though shall not kill. Here is the Catholic Church’s stance on life and on abortion:

“2270 Human life must be respected and protected absolutely from the moment of conception. From the first moment of his existence, a human being must be recognized as having the rights of a person—-among which is the inviolable right of every innocent being to life….

2271 Since the first century the Church has affirmed the moral evil of every procured abortion. This teaching has not changed and remains unchangeable. Direct abortion, that is to say, abortion willed either as an end or a means, is gravely contrary to the moral law:

You shall not kill the embryo by abortion and shall not cause the newborn to perish.

God, the Lord of life, entrusted to men the noble mission of safeguarding life, and men must carry it out in a manner worthy of themselves. Life must be protected with the utmost care from the moment of conception: abortion and infanticide are abominable crimes.” - #2270 & 2271, page 606. Catechism of the Catholic Church.

(Like any other sin, abortion IS a forgivable sin. Many may not know this. Do not be afraid to go to confession.) Here are some pro life resources concerning abortion:

Option Line – (800) 712-4357 | Option Line offers a confidential live chat, text line, and toll-free hotline that is available 24/7. The website contains additional resources for women who are considering abortion, have had an abortion, or are seeking alternatives to abortion.

Live Action - In 2008, Live Action was legally formed as a non-partisan, non-profit organization. Later that year, with a few of her friends, Lila created and produced the first nationally televised undercover investigation of the abortion industry. Live Action exists today to shift public opinion on the killing of preborn children and defend the rights of these most vulnerable among us. Through compelling educational media, human interest storytelling, and investigative reporting, we reveal the humanity of the preborn and expose the abortion industry exploiting women for profit. With the largest and most engaged online following in the pro-life movement, Live Action is leading the transformation to end this grave human rights abuse.

Rachel's Vineyard - Rachel's Vineyard is a safe place to renew, rebuild and redeem hearts broken by abortion. Weekend retreats offer you a supportive, confidential and non-judgmental environment where women and men can express, release and reconcile painful post-abortive emotions to begin the process of restoration, renewal and healing.

“…not caring that this child is victim of sexual abuses from religious figures…”

Rape is a crime. There is no excuses to rape anyone, at any stage of life. Those crime needs to be brought to justice, regardless of the severity or quantities of rape done for that one person. Since you mentioned religious figures for this part of the ask, I cannot speak personally for all the religions of the world but I can offer you what it means from a Catholic perspective since this is a Catholic blog.

-*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*-

I highly suggest you also read the facts from Catholicism’s scandals with the book “Letter to a Suffering Church: A Bishop Speaks on the Sexual Abuse Crisis” by Bishop Robert Barron. I do not personally agree with how the Vatican has handled a handful of cases, but rape is something I continue to pray people stop doing and heal from. Here is the Catholic Church’s stance on rape:

“2356 Rape is the forcible violation of the sexual intimacy of another person. It does injury to justice and charity. Rape deeply wounds the respect, freedom, and physical and moral integrity to which every person has a right. It causes grave damage that can mark the victim for life. It is always an intrinsically evil act. Graver still is the rape of children committed by parents (incest) or those responsible for the education of the children entrusted to them.” - #2356, page 625. Catechism of the Catholic Church.

Here are some pro life resources:

St. Gianna’s Place, Inc. - St. Gianna’s Place provides shelter for homeless pregnant women and their babies. Facing a crisis pregnancy without housing, financial resources, or emotional support is frightening, but St. Gianna’s Place can help. We offer a safe home, job and life skills training, and emotional support to pregnant women in need. Our vision is to promote healthy families by providing expectant moms with resources to give birth to their babies and move their lives forward in a positive direction.

Support After Abortion — For anyone suffering from abortion, miscarriage, stillbirth, or adoption, or sexual assault, Support After Abortion offers virtual and in-depth healing groups and weekly meetings. They offer training for anyone interested in joining their mission to serve those suffering after abortion. Their resources are available for purchase to offer in a group setting.

“…or relatives,…”

Incest is also a crime. Like rape, cases of incest need to be brought to justice.

-*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*-

Since this is a Catholic blog, I will also educate you upon the Church’s stance on incest:

“2388 Incest designates intimate relations between relatives or in-laws within a degree that prohibits marriage between them. St. Paul stigmatizes this especially grace offense: “It is actually reported that there is immorality among you….In the name of Jesus…you are to deliver this man to Satan for the destruction of the flesh….” Incest corrupts family relationships and marks a regression toward animality.

2389 Connected to incest is any sexual abuse perpetrated by adults on children or adolescents entrusted to their care. The offense is compounded by the scandalous harm done to the physical and moral integrity of the young, who will remain scarred by it all their lives; and the violation of responsibility for their upbringing.” - #2388 & 2389, page 634. Catechism of the Catholic Church.

Here are some pro life resources:

National Housing Coalition — An affiliate of Heartbeat International, the National Housing Coalition hosts a 24/7 hotline and national directory of housing initiatives for pregnant women.

Sisters of Life - Our missions include serving women who are vulnerable to abortion, giving them the support and resources to be able to choose life for themselves and their children; hosting weekend retreats; evangelization; outreach to college students; and helping women who have suffered after abortion to encounter the mercy and healing of Jesus Christ.

“…or be killed in gun violence in schools…”

Murder by gun violence is also a crime. Murder by gun violence is also morally wrong. Any violence and crimes used with guns need to be brought to justice.

-*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*--*-*-

To kill someone with a gun is not sacrament of the Catholic Church. It breaks the fifth commandment that says though shall not kill. It is important to bury the dead and care for others. Here is the Catholic Church’s view:

“2258 Human life is sacred because from its beginning it involves the creative action of God and it remains for ever in a special relationship with the Creator, who is its sole end. God alone is the Lord of life from its beginning until its end: no one under any circumstances claim for himself the right directly to destroy an innocent human being.” - #2258, page 602. Catechism of the Catholic Church.

“2297 Kidnapping and hostage taking bring on a reign of terror; by means of threats they subject their victims to intolerable pressures. They are morally wrong. Terrorism threatens, wounds, and kills indiscriminately is gravely against justice and charity. Torture which uses physical or moral violence to extract confessions, punish the guilty, frighten opponents, or satisfy hatred is contrary to respect for the person and for human dignity. Except when preformed for strictly therapeutic medical reasons, directly intended amputations, mutilations, and sterilizations performed on innocent persons are against the moral law.” - #2297, page 612. Catechism of the Catholic Church.

National Public Distress Helpline If you or anyone needs emotional support as a result of gun violence, please urge them to contact the SAMHSA Distress Helpline, which offers crisis support service for any American experiencing emotional distress right now at 1-800-985-5990. You can also text the Public Distress Helpline by texting “TalkWithUs” to 66746.

National Suicide Prevention Lifeline - 1-800-273-8255 The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline provides free and confidential emotional support to people in suicidal crisis or emotional distress 24/7/365. Text and chat services are also available.

….

“Respect for the dead

2299 The dying should be given attention and care to help them live their last moments in dignity and peace. They will be helped by the prayer of their relatives, who must see to it that the sick receive at the proper time the sacraments that prepare them to meet the living God.

2300 The bodies of the dead must be treated with respect and charity, in faith and hope of the Resurrection. The burial of the dead is a corporal work of mercy; it honors the children of God, who are temples of the Holy Spirit.

2301 Autopsies can be morally permitted for legal requests or scientific research. The free gift of organs after death is legitimate and can be meritorious. The Church permits cremation, provide that it does not demonstrate a denial of faith in the resurrection of the body.” - #2299, 2300, & 2301, page 613. Catechism of the Catholic Church.

If one is killed by gun violence, they can absolutely have a funeral whether it be in a Catholic Church or someplace else.

“…Is like you are not pro life, are pro life until the baby is born”.’

Just to summarize what I already said above, being truly pro life means you care about all people of every ethnicity, race, gender, age, schooling, job or no job, living situation, financial status, family status, sexuality, faith or no faith, born and unborn etc, every single life.

There are so many places and organizations who support other people in pro life ways. Check out these other links for a few examples:

Eternal Perspective Ministries - a list of pro life resources.

Heartbeat International - a list of pro life resources.

Priests for Life - On one level, as described below, Priests for Life refers to a very specific effort to galvanize the clergy to preach, teach, and mobilize their people more effectively in the effort to end abortion and euthanasia. On another level, Priests for Life represents a family of ministries that reach and enrich every aspect of the pro-life movement, for clergy and laity alike, in a wide variety of activities. This has come to pass precisely because priests are not ordained for themselves, but for the people. So in activating clergy, we are activating all the segments of the Church, the pro-life movement, and the wider society in the defense of life.

WIC - The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) provides federal grants to states for supplemental foods, health care referrals, and nutrition education for low-income pregnant, breastfeeding, and non-breastfeeding postpartum women, and to infants and children up to age 5 who are found to be at nutritional risk.

Students for Life of America - Students for Life of America launched full-time in August 2006 with the hiring of Kristan Hawkins. Thanks to an angel investor, our organization was able to grow rapidly with the mission to build and become the voice of the Pro-Life Generation.

Human Life International - Back in 1972, Fr. Paul Marx, O.S.B founded the Human Life Center to fight the spread of abortion and breakdown of the family. In 1981, the Human Life Center became Human Life International. Now we travel the world helping local leaders build a pro-life culture in their families, communities, and countries.

Arthritis Foundation - A voluntary health agency covering all arthritis and related conditions.

Benefits Checkup - Free service of the National Council on Aging (NCOA). Many adults over 55 need help paying for prescription drugs, health care, utilities, and other basic needs. Benefits Checkup asks a series of questions to help identify benefits that could save you money and cover the costs of everyday expenses.

Meals on Wheels - Meals on Wheels represents those who provide meal services to people in need.

Rebuilding Together - Provides critical home repairs, modifications and improvements for America’s low-income homeowners.

Open Culture - This collection provides a list of free educational resources for K-12 students (kindergarten through high school students) and their parents and teachers. This page is being updated and cleaned up during the COVID-19 crisis.

St. Jude Research Hospital- Many families come to St. Jude thinking it’s like any other hospital. Because of our supporters, families never receive a bill from St. Jude for treatment, travel, housing or food.

There are sooo many more but these pretty much cover all the points you brought up. Now remember that I love you and God loves you! You are in my prayers and I will bless you by adding you to my rosary tonight. I hope you have a nice, peaceful night. 🕊 🤍

[dreamsclock]

2/2 i totally understand the whole double standard thing that you were talking about! he SHOULD be held accountable for his own actions. vilbur and lmanbur are the same person, NOT separate entities. i think that c!wilbur had good intentions, at least at the start, but in the end he is a bad person, he manipulated people, blew up a country, etc etc. could he get better? maybe, who knows. but he is a morally gray coded character, NOT a hero. hopefully this all made sense, im bad with words haha

OH MY GOD IM AN ISIOT I DIDNT SEE THIS WAS PART 2/2 IM SO SORRY

yeah i agree a lot with you !!! i don’t think c!wilbur is evil, even now i don’t think he’s evil, because then we have to start asking ourselves questions like “when does someone become evil?” and “what point does someone cross to get to evil?” which i Cannot Do lmao ,,, but i think it’s undeniable that c!wilbur isn’t good, and certainly isn’t perfect either. he’s messy and complex and nowhere near simple enough for us to dichotomise as one or the other yk ??? like c!Dream said, “evil is in the eye of the beholder” and all that — the dream smp is filled with morally grey characters and c!wilbur is one of the best imo !!!

[prettyperfectdoll]

yesterday I had a disagreement in class with a professor cause the isiot said he supports women and stands by women but doesnt have a single female author in his course. I had already discussed this over email with him and he was a dick about it but I simply could not hear him talk about "attitudes that enforce conservative agenda" and literally not have any female author in his course.

I am thinking more and more about dropping university and asking a garden shop (i dont remember how this is called in english) to take me in as an apprentice you know? dealing with plants is far far better than dealing with men.

Hello love! I shall add my reply under the cut! :)

No worries at all! I have had a busy couple of days as well, I totally understand. But it sounds like you definitely had your hands full. Hope you have a more relaxed weekend/couple of days. My week was occupied with a work conference. So it has been a couple of long days, but it was also interesting to listen to other people.  But atleast it was virtual, and I got to stay a home a bit. haha 

I dont mind the long messages at all! Just did not want to clog up other people’s dash. haha Well I only have myself to blame when I do have the time to sleep early, and feel tired but I stay up reading instead. But overall, it has been a good couple of nights on the sleep front. The office secret santa did not happen, because one of my colleague’s gift did not arrive. So we are doing it next week instead. Aww that is cute!! More gifts and joy to share!!

That is so true!! But it also makes meeting them so special, and you get to see new places with them! That is one fun thing. 

I am only 6 mins in, but I am looking forward to getting deeper into in this weekend when I have time. 

Hahaha It is sad when people lose a bit of their culture with all the westernisation. But oh well, everyone has their own traditions and practices, and you know you are staying true to your roots!

I hope you have a good and smooth sailing weekend ahead! I will answer the questions separately. Thank you for your beautiful message! Sending you lots of love and positivity! Take care and stay safe! xx

Real tired of spending my Monday's crying.

I kind of regret my decision of leaving my old toxic job. I hate phones, they are my biggest cause for anxiety, and here I am working a call center. I mean I should be happy I have a job but I am kind of tired of that feeling stuck mentality. Like "at least you have a job so be happy."

Which is another thing I don't have energy for. I am finding it hard to find the energy to be happy because other then being "alive" I don't really feel there is much to be happy about.

Health- I have been waking up at 2 am everyday with horrible acid reflux that gets stuck in my throat so everytime I clear my throat I just feel acid burning it. I am unable to sleep again until usually 4:30 or 5 and have to wake up at 6:15 for work.

Job- I took a job that pays me $2 more then my last job and isn't as toxic, and has some of my best friends at it, but I hate phones. And I spend all my Monday's crying because I feel like an idiot. Working for a software company but all these calls come in and I don't know how to fix it and usually sit on hold while someone else is remoted in working on it leaving me to talk to them sounding like an idiot as I go "let's see here, oh this file (etc) " for 45 min. I don't feel good at my job, the phone gives me anxiety, and one guy here said I would feel like an isiot for 6 months. I don't like feeling incompetent and not good at my job, and am being told I will feel like that for 6 months...that's a terrible thing to feel. So I have anxiety, tears, and feeling stupid at my new place, because of phones and feeling like I don't know what I am doing. Sure there is a steep learning curve but I don't like being live while I am learning. The people calling in know this program better then I do.

Home- Live with an over bearing overly controlling Mother who I feel like I will never escape from because I do not have enough money to live comfortably on my own. So I feel trapped and suffocated.

Money- I am not making enough, and do not have enough saved up to comfortably live in an area where I feel I won't get shot up and robbed.

So I feel no reason to be happy other then that I am "alive" and right now I don't even really feel like I want to be that right now. Like I get it, poor me, I have it so hard....but right now I am just not happy, and I regret everything, but I feel trapped.

"Its not our style to hurt people" the fact thag youre saying that just shows why christians are against basix education, so isiot believers can say things like that. In pennsylvania, christians are currently fighting against laws that would help hold people who knowingly cover up child rape accountable. Actual christian groups tied to churches. But followers dont mind - not a single christian group has spoken up and said "hey raping kids is wrong"

You’re absolutely right in saying raping kids is wrong. Child rape and pedophilia of any kind is not something that should ever happen. The House Bill you’re talking about (1947, I think) was shot down in 2017, reasonably so, although it did still have accountability for offenders, shifted so cases would be stronger in civil court rather than a court of law. In a sort of spirit of forgiveness. And as far as I can tell, it was never brought back up. And on that last note, the Catholic Church was against it.
