Hiya :)

I didn't know where to ask this question but I'm curious does anyone have a song, artist, or lyric that has given you strength and confidence to be who you want to be?

For me it's Bon Jovi songs cause Jon & Richie always right amazing lyrics, for example,

"When the world gets in my face I say - have a nice day ;)"

and another song is Joan Jett - Androgynous

anyway you can share anything music or fictional characters basically who gives you strength?

Well my fav band is My Chemical Romance... with lyrics such as "and through it all, the rise and fall. the bodies in the street. and when we're gone we want you all to know that we'll carry on." or "I am not afraid to keep on living. I am not afraid to walk this road alone" I could go on for days! :P

but I listen to almost anything... Brandon Heath has a song called 'Give me your eyes'. Its a great song about someone wanting to see the world through God's eyes. Most christian or positive alternative gives me the motivation to do a lot of things in my life.

Ummm... the only movie (and its not even a movie) thats at all inspirational to me is the "Life on the Murder Scene" DVD by MCR. It really just shows that no matter what, through all the good and bad in your life, that you can do the impossible and be who you want. Mind you they wanted to be in a band and to get their message to kids and I just want to be a guy but its the same in context. :P

hehe enough bout me....

Finally I found someone who likes Iced Earth, I was beginning to think no one listened to them, and that is a great song.

I would have to say for inspiration

Avenged Sevenfold- Seize the Day

Sick Puppies- Your going down

Slipknot- People = nuts

Asian Kung FU Generation- Rewrite

Yoko Kanno and the Seatbelts- Call Me, Call me

that's a few of the good ones

I've heard that Shania Song... Toby keith is also a great inspirational artist.

What do you mean grayer? If you mean yourself, no way. If you mean the songs... you can't get much grayer than AC/DC in popular music today (unless you say the Beatles of course.)

      We need to learn to talk to each other again.  This place is important that way.   Abby
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      Nationally, sure.  But where I live, there aren't two large segments.  There's a majority, and a few who just don't fit and probably ought to move out.  I was in a nearby city a few days back, and I saw a billboard for the "Freedom From Religion" foundation.  That's acceptable there.  Here... folks would be making a bonfire.    I don't really see how the different sides CAN get along.  I see what goes on in California, and its like watching news from some alien planet.  It has very little to do with LGBTQ+ issues, really.  I can't live their way, I won't live their way, and I have no desire to compromise at all in that direction.  I'd prefer to be neighbors in separate nations, and I think folks would get along better that way.  I firmly believe the anti-trans stuff wouldn't exist here if we had a new republic of the Center-South area.  Even a micro-state of just my county and a couple others would be fine.    I get the giggles when folks think that Trump is somehow "far right."  Around here, he's a barely-acceptable centrist.  And by the standards of 100 years ago, its true.

      I don't think the Dems have a corner on division.  I do try to kinda keep up with the antics on Fox for 5h1+s and giggles. We have two large segments of the population, living in their own bubbles, with completely opposite views of our society, who never talk to each other, only at each other. People don't even want to get along with each other. We're tearing ourselves apart from the inside, while the rest of the world just sits back and watches.

    • Abigail Genevieve
      Trying to decide if I am one.  Hmmm.  It depends on the definition.  The Democrats' definition dehumanizes them, whatever they are.   I would like to see a restoration of respect for America around the world, one Obama threw away.  I would like to see factories reopen whose jobs went overseas because people like BIden wrote legislation to create a tax structure than encouraged that.  I would like to see an end to the division that Biden and Obama cause and exploit for cynical political purposes.  I would like people to be able to express themselves without fear.  I would like honest news media.  I would llike to see the federal government not push us recklessly into debt.   If that makes me MAGA, I guess I am. 
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      You've never encountered the Oklahoma State Troopers, then.... it isn't far from reality.  I swear they've got half an army of cops just sitting around.  On I-40, they've got big concrete pads where they sit in the middle of the highway, sometimes a row of 8 cars in one spot.  I guess they've got money to burn....

      Good to hear about that case, but I believe Oklahoma is in the 11th Circuit COA region along with Texas which is going to find some way to nullify this decision as far as the Oklahoma law goes, just because - - - -
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      That's a Circuit (Circus) court ruling.  Which is essentially temporary.  Most everything right now is temporary, as the Supreme Court hasn't gotten around to dealing with all the various trans-related issues from the last few years.  I really, really wish they would just bite the bullet and do their thing.  It would save us from the constant tug-of-war. "The sky is falling!".... "No it isn't.".... "But there's crap coming down."....."It landed east of here"  Whether it ends up being good or bad, I wish they'd just lance the boil and let us either have a tyranny we can fight against or a republic we don't mind living in.  Mediocrity is irritating.
    • awkward-yet-sweet
      I'm sure there are some...there's just about every kind of person imaginable in our society.  And I suspect that a number of actual GOP politicians aren't really haters...it just happens to be convenient to go along.  Like most Germans in the early 20th century weren't actually anti-Semitic.  It was just that it didn't matter to them.    While I'm not friends with any politicians (well, other than local ones), the majority of folks around me aren't anti-trans.  And one of my two trans friends is a Trump supporter, with hat and all.  My other friend is a Democrat, and the three of us actually get along even when we talk politics.  Life is interesting.

      This suggests some of the problematic policies would be unenforceable if implementation were attempted.    https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/4th-circuit-gender-identity-is-a?publication_id=994764&post_id=144139815&isFreemail=true&r=rebf4&triedRedirect=true

      You can believe what you want.  But there are such.  That should not scare you.  I wonder why it does.
    • Davie
      I don't believe it. I've never heard of such a thing. That would scare me.
    • Davie
      Yay for this . . . it overrides state laws. 4th Circuit Court says: Gender Identity Is A Protected Characteristic, Blocks State Coverage Bans. In a landmark ruling, the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled that gender identity is a protected characteristic, and that Medicaid bans on treatments for gender dysphoria are unconstitutional. https://www.erininthemorning.com/p/4th-circuit-gender-identity-is-a?publication_id=994764&post_id=144139815&isFreemail=true&r=rebf4&triedRedirect=true

      I would challenge him next time about where is being transgender a fatal sin. The only thing he has about giving into fleshy desires. Another thing you can hit at does the Bible cover intersex people? Bible to me stands for Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth. You could also challenge him as to how many times has the Bible been edited.  You could challenge him on what music, movies, podcasts and tv shows and how they give glory to God. I challenged my mom, and she had nothing to say other than I know I'm right being defensive.
