I'm feeling fairly good, but as usual it's a kind of bitter sweet feeling. Hey! tame that cat! I tried to hold his paws and he clawed me!

I understand.

There are so many things I don't want to be in my life anymore.

But most cannot be changed.

So you go on after a few minutes of raging about it and change what can be changed. I'm sick of hearing the Serenity Prayer but there is a good reason for it's name and for it's longevity.

Accepting what we can't change and changing what we can is the only way to find any peace.

So go ahead and let the feeling out-then put it aside and go on.

Believe me I DO know how desperately hard that can be. But I also know it can be done.

Can you deliver for me? My car is DOA in the driveway. Not sure the best way to transport but I'm not picky.

Dead On Arrival-a term that is used when a patient arrives dead at a hospital. The forms would be marked DOA and it has become slang for something dead or defunct

You are not responsible for what anyone else chooses to think. If you ave been true to yourself-to who you are and done your best then there isn't anything to feel guilty about and someone is just trying to put the burden for dealing with their feelings off on you.

It isn't like you had any choice in this. And ignoring it-or being untrue to yourself isn't really a choice either.

So I'd say that I regret that they feel that way and leave it at that. You can't win an argument usually when someone wants you to feel guilty. And you can't change their feelings. That's up to them. Not your responsibility.

Agreed. No one in this household seems to want to take responsibility for things gone wrong. It's easier to blame someone else, and my family and I are usually the scapegoats. I tend to get angry, almost to a rage, but when I calm down I try my best to ignore it. I know what happened, I know who's responsible, I will not carry the consequences for someone else. That's when it's time to move on to something I want or need to do, leave the rest for them to figure out. There is no winning arguments or convincing them, there's just burying it while it's still warm and moving on.

Umm...Pól? The steering wheel is on the wrong side of that car! :lol:

Leaving aside your misguided notions about the "right" side of a car, you're missing the point entirely :lol:. The aston martin is a thing of beauty.

You have me drooling at 9 AM on a Sunday.

I'm seriously contemplating changing my background to the same, at the moment.

Aye! Fantastic car, amazing background! This! This is how I want my photography to start to look like! I'd love to start taking photos of cars especially cars like this in various locations!

      We agree on most of this... and the church/state thing is kind of a tangent anyways. Oops. LOL   I think it has long been established that all different kinds of groups have access to public funds. In my opinion, either everybody has access or nobody does. I would prefer "nobody."   Relying on public funds gives the government the power to take it away, and puts that power in the hands of whatever group controls the government at the moment... the news article that is the topic of this thread shows a clear example of that happening.  Organizations trust government at their peril.

      Fantastic news! Thank you for updating us.

      More info on Abigail Thorne here: https://go.nebula.tv/philosophytube and, Dracula's ex-girlfriend, on Philosophy tube.   "The reason why Nebula is so cheap for what it is, is because there's no upper hierarchical group looking yo skim off the top. Imagine how much cheaper EVERYTHING could be if it was like that for every other service or product; if the money went straight to workers, not up a chain of command until it reached someone who did exactly "jack" to produce what's being sold.

      I'm aware that the young US ended up fighting a war with these people, and that phrase was not meant to address Church & state.  But somebody was willing to include it at the time.   I am also aware that your family arrangements would not go over well with most christian nationalists.  But that is kinda where I'm coming from on this.  I believe you and others of us with an unconventional lifestyle should be free to live as we desire - as long as we are not hurting anyone else.  And by "hurting" I don't mean only their feelings.   Using christianity to justify oppression is just wrong.  As is forced conversion, or forced conversion therapy.   Regarding public funds, LGBTQetc people have as much right to them as straight-cis folks.  I'm not arguing that queer people have more rights, just equal rights.

      Even better news:  It turns out for my sister it was cardio not stroke. She’s put on new blood thinner and sent home. False alarm! Yay.

      Things have changed since I've been on HRT for about 15 years. The consequence is I am not so concerned about how I present all the time.  I wear t-shirts a lot. I am pragmatic in how I shop. No, I don't want to look male, but will buy some male clothing because it fits. I am tall and built like a football linebacker, so buying women's clothes that fit can be difficult. For one I have no problem buying men's sneakers if they can pass as unisex. I wear size 12-13 women's shoes. And that can be hard to find. And, I don't like wearing slacks without pockets. I use pockets for work.    I've learned to be pragmatic. I dress up when I want to go out in public, and not so much at work. I do have a favorite blouse that accentuates the girls. And one blue striped blouse where I wear a cami top.

      https://www.patheos.com/blogs/danthropology/2016/05/secularists-please-stop-quoting-the-treaty-of-tripoli/   ^^^ an interesting piece about the treaty, written by an atheist.   I totally understand why the Christian nationalist stuff makes people uncomfortable. For me, it is uncomfortable in a different way, as modern Christian nationalism is not nearly as "generic" as the views of the Founders.  Its specifically Evangelical.  I'm in a plural marriage, so definitely not approved of.    I believe the intent of the Founders was to uhold generic Christian ideas... "in God we trust" and "there's a God who created the world and He wrote ten commandments for us" sort of stuff.  Nothing beyond that, nothing specific enough to use against folks.

      Free?!?!  That's insane.  I can understand perhaps mistaking somebody's well equipped garage as a business, but demanding free work is ridiculous.   My GF once remarked that while few things in life are free, butt-kickings are an exception. She offers those free-of-charge, to any who ask. A little charity helps the world go round 🤣

      I had a CDL when I was working for the city.  But I let it go when I retired.  I couldn't justify paying so much just to drive myself around.

      While I'm sure the "Founders" had the 30 years war, etc. on their minds, they didn't write the constitution as considering only Christian sects. The early colonists (I used the word) did mostly come from areas of "christian culture" but it's hard to reconcile some of their actions with what Christ himself taught.   Christians have a right to their beliefs, but there are a lot of American citizens that do not consider themselves "christian."  I have seen writings where the US was specifically said not to be a "Christian Nation". "The 1797 Treaty of Tripoli that sought to secure America from attacks by the so-called Barbary pirates who were Muslim made a point to say that the United States "is not in any sense founded on the Christian Religion.""    It shouldn't be difficult to understand why the "Christian Nationalist" movement makes some of us uncomfortable.

      Hi everyone, I'm new here, but I hope it's OK to tell ou about my book. It's called Going Out, and it's by me, Nicola Atherton, and it's on Amazon. It's my first book, and I've had such good reviews of it, but I'd LOVE to know what people think of it here. Thanks!

      just found a cute pair of denim shorts with flowers embroidered in two places on the front ... daring myself to wear them around family today ... the flowers match the deep rose of the t-shirt I just bought...
