I really don't want to be mean, but I'm a converted Catholic and the people around me don't really follow it and you seem to be holy so I wanted to say that there's this thing that has been bothering me a lot about Christianity. In Sodom and Gomorrah, Lot, who's called a righteous man, offers up his daughters to be raped "Please, my brethren, do not do so wickedly! See now, I have two daughters who have not known a man; please, let me bring them out to you, and you may do to them as you wish; only do nothing to these men, since this is the reason they have come under the shadow of my roof" And it's just always bothered me, since I read this story because, y'know, he's a good person and even though he's trying to save angels, but he's basically willing to sacrifice his daughters to be gangraped. I checked through a few versions to make sure I read that There are other weird things like in Timothy there's a thing about women being saved through childbirth and I don't know. Maybe I'm just not used to this bible stuff, but I don't really want children and thinking I'll go to hell if I choose not to, because I don't think I'm infertile, scares me

I know this is a really weird question to just spring on you, but I've been questioning things and it scares me. I took you randomly showing up on my dash as a sign or something. Praying to believe and trying to stay positive

You can read this article written by John Sanidopoulos, an Orthodox layman who studied at a few seminaries: Why Is Lot Called “Righteous” If He Offered His Daughters To Be Raped? LINK

Lot wasn’t perfect, but he knew God and that’s what made him righteous. It seems he already knew that his guests were angels, and therefore would be able to protect his family if they so wished; that’s why when the Sodomites rushed in, they were blinded by the angels. That was going to happen either way, the blinding, just like God didn’t allow Abraham to slay Isaac, but still, Lot’s love for God was tested.

The topic of childbirth and almsgiving, the latter which you sent in a second anon, is something that should be discussed with an Orthodox spiritual father. If you live in North America, I recommend visiting an Orthodox monastery and talking to a priest if you want the best answer possible. You can also write a letter to an Orthodox priest at a monastery, or go to a local Orthodox Church and speak to a priest there. There is a path for women who don’t want to have a family. You can PM me if you want me to give you more information about it.

It’s good to have this zeal and fear in your heart, but know that this is also a test of faith. God is merciful and wise above all.

I forgot which saint said it, maybe St. John Climacus, but he said that Christians walk a narrow path with the danger of falling down either side. The demonic attacks come from both the left and the right. Demons from the left attack us with the temptation to sin, to be lazy, to be careless, to be greedy. From the right comes the temptation to quickly acquire virtues like asceticism, almsgiving, to be righteous… but you’ll see that those seemingly good virtues are trickeries that can quickly make you fall into the sin of pride, pride in your ability to fast, give alms, and criticism of other seemingly less righteous people. That is the trick of the devil. That is why it is said: narrow is the way that leads to eternal life.

Nor do they put new wine into old wineskins, or else the wineskins break, the wine is spilled, and the wineskins are ruined. But they put new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved.

You are new wine, the virtues of almsgiving and asceticism are old wineskins. If you try immediately to pour yourself into the virtues, you will likely just break and spill and fumble everything. You have to put new wine into new wineskins, so everything in the spiritual life must be done with great care.

Most importantly, you need a spiritual guide, that is, a spiritual father. I am Orthodox so I would recommend an Orthodox guide, although some people will tell you that it is all the same. In my experience, having been on both sides, there are many differences in the life of prayer and relationship with God. Let that be your decision.

And no one, having drunk old wine, immediately desires new; for he says, ‘The old is better.’

Thank you and to DWM for giving me the vid 🤗 I gotta admit, even after getting that first video and watching it again, I was still on my train of denial and went looking to see if anyone had a counter for it or a platonic explanation and the reason for that is, we'll im a stubborn bish 😭 and I really don't want to be a delulu shipper but while I was looking for a non gay explanation for the coded mole shit, I watched some other videos and managed to stumble my ass across the hand signals shit 🙃 and THEN I found my way to that timeline that @dearweirdme mentioned in your response and yeah, just bury me now and roast my ass if you want because I am SIDE eyeing Vkook harrrd right now. Side eyeing them from multiple directions at this point. Seeing all of it together in one timeline was a trip.

Maybe I'm just delulu, i don't know but secret hand signals is really just pushing the boundaries of platonicness of a situation to me and charting each others freckles and moles is like classic romantic love shit. I don't know a single friend of mine I can tell you where their damn moles are place. Hell i couldn't tell you were my siblings moles and shit are of the top of my head like that but I remember doing that shit with boyfriends for the first time.

I mean I'm still not gonna a read fanfic or fight bitches on twitter over them but I do think ya'll might be onto something and I'll be looking at them a whole new way from now.

Hi anon!

😂 well, we’re not making stuff up anon. It’s all things Tea and Jk themselves do. It’s just often a matter of interpretation, and I think (if you do venture further into this) you’ll be finding a lot of stuff does get exaggerated and overanalyzed, but still.. there is a lot that does actually point to there being more between Jk and Tae.

chúc mừng năm mới !!! happy new year !!!

[keferon]

Important info please read!!

I am a goddamn moron. And I reeeally fucked up.

You know that thing when you get in a new fandom not from watching/reading canon material but from looking at fanart and fanfics?

So your perception of what characters should look/behave like is based on things other people draw and write?

Yeah. I first discovered Texaid through fanfiction and then went to look for some fanart of it and then, like an absolUTE FUCKING IDIOT, assumed I knew what they looked like because I saw how other people draw them. When in reality I was basically drawing other person's design from memory this whole time??? And no one ever called me out about this until today?? Why no one told me sooner ohmyfuckingod I would stop this shit instantly

Guys. GUYS. Those Texaid designs belong to @disformer They were never mine. It's fucking important you all know that.

I'm going through all imaginable stages of grief rn I'm so sorry. I won't use the designs ever again. Stealing them wasn't my intention. I knew Vortex and First Aid as a rare pair never really had any interactions in canon so I didn't bother to do a proper research about them and just went with what I saw in fandom. I'll go search for my clown shoes now.

... Oh! Looks like Jamil is willing to play now, competing with his tsum for your attention ♡ (and forgetting in his jealousy that tsums... don't have mouths...)

Happy Pocky Day ♡♡♡

Jamil: Please excuse me. I thought I saw a... rather large insect causing you trouble. Mayu: (Ehh... I don't think you'd be grabbing it like that if you really did...💦) Jamil tsum: 💢

(Reference to this previous post!)

Most jealous man alive won't play the game with her but also won't let anyone else play the game with her, what are you supposed to even do, sigh...

HIIII do you take requests? if yes, i’d like to ask for dad best friend!toji n virgin reader pleaseee^^ like he loves corrupting young innocent girls like the reader, thank you in advance!

eek thank u for the request! I LOOOVVVEEE CORRUPTION virgin reader a dadsbestfriend!toji is literally my dreeeaaammmggguuh

toji's been checking one of his friend's daughter for some time now. not necessarily checking out, he doesn't see it like that—more like admiring the pretty young woman you've become. from graduating high school to a sweet full-time college student, he also finds it quite convenient that you've decided to live with your parents for the time being.

family and friend get-togethers at your place are just perfect for him. gets to see you all personal and intimate, reading a book in the corner inside whilst everybody hangs out outside, occasionally grabbing another drink from the counter. he'll grab a beer himself and make small talk. ugh and he's so charismatic about it too. he'll notice the way you put your book down and squeeze your thighs together when he smiles. makes sure to smile right at you just to see you stutter on your words and burn.

he'll get even closer, being friendly enough so he's allowed in your room. lingering touches on your shoulders or hand, presses up on you waayy to much for goodbye hugs.

the first time he kisses you is in your bed. his bare skin is glistening from being in the pool earlier as he sat on the edge. when he took his sunglasses off, you couldn't help but giggle at the slight tan on his face, couldn't help staring at his toned abs tanned neatly as well. leaning in to wipe a drop of water off his nose until you notice his gaze is much too deep for anything appropriate. he'd close and lock the door as well, force of habit he calls it. does it every time. your chest heaves when he leans in for a wet kiss. too good to let go, you cling onto him gently and let it deepen.

better than any mere boy your age, you inch closer to him. stupidly keeping your legs open as he slides a hand to your inner thigh, eager fingers to your virgin cunt just behind your flimsy home shorts. slippery and throbbing from the touch of an older man. slowly adds the touch of his tongue in your mouth to keep himself and you occupied, hopefully away from noticing the raging boner you've given him under his trunks. focusing on his finger tips from getting to quick to get inside you.

Actually I’m curious, what happens in your SG!TFOne AU when Optimus first captures Megatron?

SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG

So, I mentioned generally what happened in this post about what happened the first time he caught Megatron. Basically, Cliffjumper had managed to corner and brainwash Megatron alone, leaving him dazed and pliant for the autobot to bring him to Optimus.

Optimus is incredibly pleased, and so he keeps Megatron in his private chambers. He tells Megatron that it’s dangerous outside and can only leave when the prime allows it. So he usually stays in the chambers and waits for Optimus to come back. Of course, because of the brainwash, Megatron only remembers him as 'Orion Pax' and himself as 'D-16,' so Optimus fully takes on his former role as the miner with Megatron, and showers him with attention whenever he's nearby. Whenever Optimus is needed elsewhere, he has Cliffjumper stand by the chambers to prevent any escapes.

When Megatron and Optimus are alone, Optimus likes to reminiscence on old memories, and the two act like they did when they were miners- hand holding, cuddling, soft caresses, playful banter, even small pecks here and there. Megatron doesn't know any of this is happening, and Megatronus can't speak to him in this state, leaving him forced to watch this happen.

This lasts for about a few orns before Starscream and Soundwave create a diversion attack, and Shockwave helps Megatron escape with Blitzwing providing them defense. During this time, Bee is still Bumblebee, not goldbug, and helps them find Cliffjumper.

Bee is hesitant on stopping Cliffjumper at first, but once the other mech tries to alert Optimus, the yellow mech quickly slices out his vocalizer, and Blitzwing helps and shoots Cliff dead. Promptly following his death, Megatron is freed from the brainwashing, and from there it's a quick and easy escape from the autobots, and from Iacon in general.

Optimus is angered and furious, and after realizing Bee helped the decepticons, he tears out his own vocalizer as punishment, and as his first strike.

Hopefully that answered your question!
