Abstract art was a warning symptom; a manifestation of the dysfunction of today.
Unidentified emotion, unknown purpose, untethered longing. In that order.
These people had the raw emotion, but they were never given the lessons to identify them.
Vibrance without structure.
@Pat_Stedman The saccharine pompousness is one the most egregious sins of British culture. I don't expect a civilization this unauthentic to not go through this phase.
Conflating willing celibacy with not wanting sex is disingenious at best, manipulative at worst.
Priests and nuns are men and women that have a calling so strong that it overrides their sexual/worldly desires with commitment to God and church.
George Foreman, Dolores Hart, etc.
Do you think any single man would want to be married to these women? Would they want to be married at all if this is the experience they're selling?
This is the branding crisis that Christianity is facing right now in the West. Being lectured by these women on sex feels the same as being lectured by Elizabeth Warren on privilege.
@abarefootmomma They're bothered by the fact that the bar has been set so high to a point that their selfish minds can't comprehend or achieve anyway. It's a dent in their so called "empathy", shining a mirror at their own disgusting faces.
@AJA_Cortes I, a third-world (Sri Lankan), watched this happen over the course of three nights.
The disappointment was unreal.
The callousness was unreal.
Y'all election infrastructure and procedure is an embarassment.
Fucking heads should have been rolling.
@LeahDiscovers Gist is: people that bring up issues vs people that don't.
Former, while seen as problematic: results in a good relationship. Latter, while seen as ideal, implodes due to resentment.
I've experienced this; the latter tends to be people neglected in childhood (read, avoidants).
@LFChowning@LeahDiscovers Exactly. Some people have been conditioned to be so conflict-averse that they will fake a smile while wanting to punch your face out. Then one day that resentment reaches critical mass and you're left wondering what the hell happened.
This is how the Zelenskiy regime is going after priests of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church all over Ukraine today. The regime is starting a holy war, this is not democracy this is totalitarianism financed by Washington... We will not be silent! #SaveUkrainianOrthodoxChurch
The priests and monks of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the Holy place of Kyiv-Pechersk Lavra are asking the world for help and support. They are not giving up and not running away and will stay with their church till the end. UKRAINIANS WANT PEACE #SaveUkrainianOrthodoxChurch
@PoeticCiaran I can't understand how they don't realize that the looks she's getting is not from the "modest" dress but from the movements she's making (which are overtly seductive).
