@Y_didy_7 My delusion: Get your desire up

[A @Kurious_A]

It has come to my attention that I'm not in love because I'm not sufficiently desiring the object of my desire. tldr if I wanted to I would

Flight of the bumblebee is much more impressive as an orchestral piece than as a solo performance

[A @Kurious_A]

Not better than Free Solo but good nonetheless

Lol we too

[isaac Samuel @rhaplord]

Pre-modern Christianity was very localized; almost nationalistic

Apparently, the subjects of Kongo believed that they were God's favorite;
that he sent angels to create other countries so he could devote himself to Kongo,
and that the Garden of Eden was in the kingdom itself!

This helps explain why so much contemporary discourse revolves around humiliation and domination. These are not accidental features of online culture. They work as visible confirmation that reassure the audience that their “truth” has prevailed. (4/8)

[Delman @dmontetheno1]

Apologetics is epistemic pornography because it gives the catharsis of intellectual discovery without the long process of study and self-reflection that understanding requires. It offers the emotional climax of certainty without the hard work that usually precedes it. (3/8)

What a day

[Dioni, vuestro amigo.🇪🇺 @CeodeDionis]

¿En que momento dejo de existir el mundo de Tintín? Donde llegabas a un país y todo era totalmente diferente. Antes de que se estandarizada la ropa, la música, los vehículos, las ciudades.

Yo creo que en los 80 fueron los últimos estertores del mundo no globalizado.

[𝖓𝖎𝖓𝖊 🕯 @atlanticesque]

What your preferred Bible translation says about you:

NIV: You got yours for free, perhaps from a motel nightstand

NRSV: You're woke, I'm afraid

RSV: You're probably an anglophile and a "principled conservative" and think that Henry VIII should have just been given the stupid annulment

ESV: You're a cool youth pastor trying to make theonomy cool for the kids

NKJV: It's all about the vibes man

KJV: You're either a larper or belong to a tiny sect of hard-shell primitive baptists in Schittsville, West Virginia

OSB: You have a twxtter account and a lot of strong opinions about the Union of Florence and Russian church politics despite being a 19 year old German-American from Wisconsin

NAB: The pope said it, I believe it, that settles it

NASB: You were probably homeschooled

NJB: You secretly wish you were a bishop at Vatican II and think that the ecumenical movement (had it not been undermined by sectarians and bigots) could have literally ushered on the end of days

NLT: Well, you're probably a really nice person

DRB: Larper, papist edition

ASV: What the hell sort of contrarian are you

GEN: Larper, calvinist edition

MSG: No punchline here, I'm fine with it, you know what you want. It's really bad but whatever, there's more important things in life than this.

CSB: You probably throw great superbowl parties

AMP: Your grandkids will probably call you this weekend for sure

DNKJB: Your shoes are shined, your tie is straight, your short-sleeved dress shirts are pressed, you're the only one keeping pomade manufacturers in business, you're ready to hit the bricks

OJB: You've almost hoodwinked the Israeli visa people into recognizing Messianic Judaism as valid for aliyah

YLT: You subsist entirely on books you find in the creepy old attics you break into at night

Pgmies of the congo jungle were formidable warriors and many Arab slave expeditions were Annihilated by them. They had a reputation of being strong and never forgiving an insult. They were such skilled archers that they could shoot a small lemon two inches in diameter from 15 yards away and their poisoned arrows killed in minutes. They used theirmastery of the forest to their full advantage, their enemies often dying without knowing who killed them.
