  • Are you suggesting nobody needs medication?

  • That's what leads me to believe you read it in a specific translation. Old English does a lot of heavy lifting for those revelations folks.

  • "The content isn't available in your region"

    "Please insert your testicles into the crushing receptacle and pay 14.99"

  • Yes, pirate is better

    Went to visit the parents. Still got the official Pirate Bay sticker on my old bedroom door. Dat nostalgia.

  • most Christians totally ignore

    There's almost certainly a reason. I can't google fu the verse but if you find it please lmk.

    I'd imagine the answer to why it's not generally accepted can be found by comparing translations. Likely it's the King James or one of the less colloquial ones being 'misinterpreted' to suggest a timeframe. But I am speculating here.

  • Former Christian here: I can confirm that no verse directly specifies a date. However Revelations folk are a special breed.

    The best one I can find is the 7000 year old earth theory.

    Basically it hinges off Genisis saying Man lives for 120 years, and if you multiply that by the amount of Jubilee years (every 50 years in Hebrew tradition) you get 6000. 4000 till Jesus, 2000, till his return, 1000 years of sabbath. Than god will remake the heavens and the earth. For a total of 7000.

    It's a bunch of conjecture that would make biblical numerologists proud.

  • It's not just about voting. We need more people RUNNING!

    Knock Down The House

    Regardless of your opinion on AOC, this documentary about how she got elected lays out the steps. IMO it's how AOC got elected that is the key to fixing America. Americans need to make that happen every single election. Systematic problems need more than 1 presidential term to reverse after all.

    1. Independent local grassroots electoral movement. Dedicated to getting/organizing volunteers, signature gathering, door knocking, everything from getting candidates on the ballot to winning in the election.
    2. Candidate nominations. AOC didn't sign up, her BIL or someone nominated her and the Grassroots Movement approached her to run.
    3. PRIMARIES. PRIMARIES. PRIMARIES. Target establishment DNCs who clearly have more in common with corporate lobbyists than their own constituents.
    4. Run the numbers game. Only 1/4 of their candidates won. Democrats should face a primary EVERY SINGLE ELECTION.

  • You literally omitted "in the same way" so that you could say "sure we do" like I said "we don't at all".

    So you're being rather dishonest to suggest the part you omitted had no meaning.

  • I'm from Western Canada and while our experience is very very far from the rest of NA's...(none of our shit came from Mexico) one thing that's definitely changed over the last few decades is the knowledge base of cannabis growers in general.

    There are more cannabis specific products such as nutrient blends, pest, and environmental controls. Off the shelf products you can order online that used to be custom made or end you up on a list.

    People understand pruning, topping, and branch lining. This becomes especially apparent when you compare amateur growers to intermediate and medical grade growers.

    Than there's the genetics being improved through breeding. .

    But the main thing I'm told is that a lot of weed in the USA came from outdoor grows in Mexico. Which outdoor can never, ever, compete with indoor.

    I didn't know they'd been working on this shit like it's the cure for cancer

  • Roko's basilisk

    I sort of do, but not because I think AI will become a sentient overlord. IMO AI will inevitably be refined as a tool for cyber warfare and oppression.

    I feel like younger generations will be even more susceptible to malicious AI because their entire lives have a digital footprint. We think AI chatbots are manipulative now? Just wait until they can train their manipulation tactics using your baby photos and childhood memories.

    And again this would all be at the direction of a human. I don't subscribe to the idea of an AGI overlord. At the same time I do expect AIs capabilities to continue improving drastically

  • I think he means people who like tucker,mtg,owens have a taste for word salad.

    RIP Alex

  • people who require medication don't benefit from "wellness" practices the same way as people who don't require medication.

    My biggest pet peeve is when people half quote something and respond as if the other half the quote doesn't exist.

  • Hopefully AOC runs with Bernie advising her.

    Agree but, IMO it's how AOC got elected that is the key to fixing America. Americans need to make that happen every single election. Systematic problems need more than 1 presidential term to reverse afterall.

  • a STRONGLY WORDED backlash!

  • This is 100% going on the work teams chat as soon as it's relevant. (not long)

    • grass too tall
    • didn't respect mah athoriteh
  • TBF out of the 249.7 years the USA has existed they've been at war for all but 16 of them.

  • Fuck Cars @lemmy.ca

    A driver hit & killed a one-year-old girl in Calgary. A few hours later, another driver hit & killed a nine-year-old girl near Edmonton.

    DEMS PULL UPSET ON EPSTEIN FILES: Democrats dropped an 11th-hour motion at an unrelated hearing after noticing that most GOP members on the panel had publicly demanded the files be released.
