Paid justice. Hit men are cheaper.

Almost everything Jesus taught was in contradiction to the ot.

First and last month’s pay and an equal deposit, in advance. Plus a five grand hiring bonus, in advance.

The Trump administration made aggressive cuts to training programs for blue-collar workers

He didn’t do it for the right reason, but it also should be the wealthy capitalists who pay for training, as well as excellent compensation for the job. Any other way is subsidizing wealthy welfare queens. Nope on that and let’s use precise language that makes it clear who subsidizes who. The wealthy are the greedy, lazy takers, not our regular joes and janes.

CEOs make several hundred times the average worker wage, including middle management.

I shouldn’t have to pay for training, let the evil overlords sacrifice a pittance and also pay well. Otherwise, detail cars, clean houses, mow lawns. Tell evil people “bye!”

No, they’re good at acting, though.

This is wholly the fault of the United States. Stop supporting my terrorist government, regardless of the party in charge.

I do love it too. So serious!

You’re so welcome. I’ve been there, and in therapy off and on for a lot of years. We’re in it together.

Gorgeous, interesting birds.

That’s a lot more common than you would imagine. You’re worth it though. Sometimes you may not feel like it. Show up for yourself, anyway.

A grift for the technocrats.

That’s what I meant when I said modeling healthy behavior. Mother/father wounds still happen, we’re still human, but even in the healthiest households, weaning, toilet training, separation, learning table manners is stressful for little ones.

Iirc Third Way literally is a fascist expression (Mussolini?) and Hilary Rodham Clinton resurrected it, so it’s horrible policy.

Why contradictory? Jesus was a magician, even a necromancer. Turned water into fine wine, etc (I take these things as highly metaphorical, but stress emotions do horrible health damage. Love heals a lot of inner wounds, so maybe some conditions are motivated mitigated.

Not being able to cook and eat humans make some people feel oppressed, too, and it’s still the law. I think cultural context also matters. Jesus, if he existed as a singular person, was certainly ahead of his time, and imo, when he said he came to fulfill the law (old testament) rather than abolish it, that meant it was completed, thus over. It was time for a new law. Plus I’ve also done a lot of reading at early Jewish writings.com, earlychristianwritings.cim, the Ethiopian Bible in English, my Jewish learning.com, Jewish encyclopedia, etc, so there are a lot of mistranslation, too.

Constantine left a lot out to solidify his rule too.

I came to say, “just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean they’re not out to get you.”

Doing the work is exploring and sitting with the uncomfortable feelings, going beyond the obvious stem to find the root. I don’t like it either, but it gets better, then worse, then better for a while. Sometimes therapy is necessary.
