I think many Christians end up with a false dichotomy. If we didn't choose to be how we are, then something in our environment did it. Is going along with it a sin? Maybe. But if so, its one of those times where we mess something up no matter what we do. Part of the imperfect nature of this fallen world is that there are times where we'll sin no matter what we do. In a no-win scenario like that, we do the wisest thing possible with our free will. -

This is the crux of my anguish these many, many months (years!) and where I go back-and-forth with my own journey ... I was born a biological male. No denying that in my case. But I have a lot of internal feminine leanings and external ones, too. I prefer to wear women's clothes 100 percent of the time (if I could). I wish I had the female plumbing. I long for that badly sometimes. I don't know why or where that came from but no denying that either. I have started HRT because I like the idea of having a more feminine physical body and some of the "perks" that go with that. I just asked my doc to up my dose to the next level today! So the big question I ask myself is: am I knowingly disobeying God, who likes order and made humans male and female, by taking these steps? This is my wife's take on things. "You are sinning. You know God made you a male biologically. Yet you are willfully pursuing transition to being something God didn't intend you to be regardless of what you feel inside, what your preferences are, etc." I keep trying to tell her it's much more complex than that but sometimes I don't even know what I think... This ties up in knots and makes me angry and makes me feel stuck!!! I don't want to disobey my Creator and Savior and yet I have this strong, strong leaning toward the feminine in many ways (that keeps getting stronger and refuses to go away no matter how much I have tried to stuff it away!!) ... It feels like misery no matter which path I take - if I "give in" to the feminine, which I have been doing a lot the past 12 months or so, am I endangering my soul? Am I creating scandal? Yet the thought of putting the feminine aside feels, at times, like death too (or is it just me being self-centered and unwilling to bend the knee to my Creator who would ask me to give this up as a testament to my love for him... I don't know. I don't know. I don't know!! But sometimes I really really F***ing hate this quandary... -

We use a ton of Harbor Freight stuff here. They have pretty good warranty, too, I guess. GF beats all heck out of sockets and things, and if she takes them back they get replaced for free. Harbor Freight was junk 20 years ago, but its really good now. Craftsman used to be good 20 years ago, but now its junk (but they still want to charge made-in-the-usa prices). Dewalt is now Chinese also, when it used to be made in Germany. Older Dewalt tools are good, but GF got a really bad hand injury a few years ago from a Chinese Dewalt drill bit that shattered. Some of the name brands just aren't what they used to be. -

Honestly, all the numbers are monkey math. Doesn't matter who's in charge. Trump kept crowing about the damn stock market, which didn't make a difference to normal people. All the "job creation" is an illusion. They consider it job creation when they take good full time jobs, and split them in half to "make" two part-time or temp jobs. Not totally a Biden problem, as this has been going on for decades now. Things *began* to get better under Trump. A bit. Maybe 8 years would have been better, but it wouldn't have fixed it. Too much damage. To me, Trump is a case of "too little, too late." In my opinion, we need more - a true nationalist, with an aggressive and isolationist foreign policy. And we needed him 50 years ago. I want to see: High import tariffs, a currency backed by precious metals, no more "climate" stuff and repudiation of all "accords" or other agreements, elimination of excess government agencies like the FBI and EPA, and total seizure of foreign-owned assets on US soil - with sale and disbursement of profits to our citizens. And that would be a basic start. Instead of "sanctions" to interrupt the trade of nations we don't like, Congress should instead issue letters-of-marque as described in the Constitution. I'd like to see an alliance with Russia, and an end to nearly a century of useless conflict. Trump won't do any of those things. He's a sad, pale imitation of the leaders that founded our nation. -

Well I got some terrible news today. My therapist is a doctoral intern at the VA. Her internship is ending the end of July. Normally interns just continue with the VA after their degree is done. However, VA has a hiring freeze on. So, I am going to loose one of the best therapists I have ever had. One that actually cares about me. I do have a few months till she leaves, Thankfully. Other than that. my wife and youngest are both sick. Don't know if they got it worse that I had on Thurs/Friday. Or I am destine to get it too. I've got tools that range from cheapy flea market stuff all the way up to high grade, Mac and Snap-on. Most have lasted me for quite a long time. I am diligently trying to keep my happy arse out or the Snap-on truck when he comes every Thurs. So far, I have resisted. But the temptation is there. Kymmie -

IMO: If politicians stopped focusing on which bathrooms people were using and, you know, the actual issues of the country, maybe we could work on that 30+ trillion dollar debt of ours? Put more effort into international cooperation? Consider ways to improve education? Literally anything more productive than worrying about what's in some lady's pants you'll never meet? -

I have been thinking of this one a bit today since my first response here. If you check out the relation that Peter had with Jesus and you can see that even Jesus was criticized for being who Jesus was by Peter. In that relationship which I have come to think was more of a Chosen Family situation than genetic family, Peter was telling Jesus who Peter thought Jesus should be. Especially when it came to Jesus being killed for what his true identity was. Transgender is very much an issue of identity and not primarily about sexuality. Sexuality is the BIG thing with certain religious groups and if you look at it, it is always about pro-creating kids into certain genealogies and making them new church members. -

Good evening @Adrianna Danielle wow 13 years out of a harbor freight tool. That’s amazing, and lucky. I read an article recently about how harbor freight does make inexpensive tools. It seems that some percentage of them are expected to fail in some manner. However they are typically made with the same laborers parts design as name brand high end tools. If you get a good one it can last for a long time. -

Happy anniversary @Willow! Good luck, @Birdie! Congratulations on the new gear @Adrianna Danielle! My family is currently considering a big move. My wife applied for and received an offer for a job in WA. If all things are equal I am down for a change of scenery, but it’s not that simple. Much maths are about to happen…wish me luck! ;) -

Or they could live and let live and not clog the courts with games of roulette? To absolve the attempt based on a perceived chance of success is gambling in another guise. Sure, it could all be marketing to gin up the base, but we see it constantly getting pushed at the local, State, and Federal levels. Don’t we want lawmakers focused on issues of import? Maybe we’re a distraction, but that means we become social targets. If we’re really just a side show game to them, they obviously don’t give a damn what the repercussions are for us; we’re just lambs for slaughter. So why support people or adjacent policies that do that to us? Why believe these jaguars won’t eat your face when they tell you that, if they can, they will? -

Manufacturing jobs have increased by nearly 800k since Biden’s inauguration. Deficits and debt are up as well, which water down some of the positive metrics. Given the fact we were coming out of a pandemic and then into a global economy affected by a Russian aggression and then a war in the Middle East, things wouldn’t be ideal. But we’re not on a gold standard anymore. Government budgets aren’t household budgets. Inflation was up but is coming down, which means that government spending isn’t uncontrolled. Honest news media? Which news are we referring to? I recommend looking into Ground.news and their blind spot feature. It will show you, regardless of your leanings, what you’re not seeing in your typically consumed news. MAGA is not about making America great again or otherwise. It’s a marketing cult for populist conservatism, aka the cult of Trump. America being great is not bad or a bad idea, but its choice as the moniker of the campaign is not-so-subtle political marketing. By default, no one wants to argue against the idea, however it creates a dichotomy where “the other side must not want (or is actively trying to destroy) it”. It’s an empty slogan because America was no greater during the Trump years and you can logically argue our global cache was diminished during his term, which was marked by sentiment of the US being a unilateral agitator. -

smiles I think I need to help him find a way to simply love others, regardless of identifying with them or understanding their journey..but I thought I recall stories of Jesus being asked which of 10 laws were greatest..n the answer being 1. God us God n have no other gods you worship..asking forgiveness to friends who practice religions with polydieties..but I think catholic say 1 god..n the 2nd rule is almost as important..love each other as I have loved you maybe if I can focus him on we all believe God wants us to love n help each..maybe he'll forget the footnote he seems to be inserting, unless they are lgbt..then they go to hell...nerd sorry probably too politically charged..delete if so with my apologies hugs to all who want them -

So, I don't know what this is called, but it's kind of like when you see the boob bridging to the collarbone. I hate it. You can totally see I have a chest. How do I fix it and what is it called? (I'm wearing an old gc2b binder I got from someone at school that is not my specific sizing, but it's all I can work with)
