I'm in one of those weird modes where good things are happening- but bad things had
happened for so long that I cant seem to enjoy the highs of positivity.
I'm in the midst of packing to move, and I'm so very looking forward to less stress coming
with this move-but it doesn't feel real yet. probably because packing sucks. fuck packing.

In November we are doubling the square footage of our office and drawing up the floor plans
now to go over budget with contractors. This is amazing and going to help SO much...and
we would never be able to do this if not for having a loyal and wonderful client base....
but I just can't get excited for it, for whatever reason.

I presume I'm just too busy and in work mode constantly that I can't de-stress enough to
feel good about my future de-stressing lol.

We need a vacation so bad, my brain is a scrambled mess.

[color=Mediumorchid] I mean, the conditions they’re keeping him in are terrible, and he absolutely had no reason to be imprisoned. He was the one being harassed. Probably the only thing trump has done that I’ve agreed with. And Trump didn’t care about it until Kanye West said something... so really, it is thanks to Kanye.

..and yeah. It's within Trumps rights/jurisdiction. Glad someone is helping the guy.

Posted in Being an Atheist is a struggle Posted 5 years ago
Millet, spilling the tea:


When I'm asked or in a situation that presents me needing to say so, for sake of most context I state that I am an atheist.
Technically I am an agnostic. I don't know if there is one god or a million and it is is impossible to know that for sure
regardless of whatever identity you possess in the subject. But I know if I say Agnostic the Christians/Catholics in my
life will think. "So...you're saying there's a chance!" (To convert me) Where I completely reject the possibility of their very
specific God and awkwardly pieced together and translated too many times to count Bible.

more friends of mine than not are some variant of Christian, and we remain friends because we are equally able to respect each other.
When I eat dinner with one family, they always do prayer with their three year old. I do prayer with them. Do I belive it does anything? No.
But I'm accommodating because I'm in their home and I don't want to confuse their three year old on why I'm not praying. If it was a bunch of
adults at the table I'd just sit quietly. In these kind of relationships there needs to be give and take.

In contrast the entirety of my father's side of the family happily disowned me for dating a girl when I was 19.
And that girls family I think pressured her into stopping dating me so lost my family (no real loss) and the girl I liked.
Thanks religious intolerance! /eyeroll

There is definitely a stereotype atheist, that are probably rightfully shamed. Picking debates with every innocent grandma on the street wearing a cross around her neck not letting people just live. and their entire identity surrounds atheism and condescending every religious person they meet.
That's just the vocal minority and people pigeon holing all atheists into that stereotype should know better. But eh, that's society.
The stereotypes of a group will always remain the visual of the identity to all opposing groups.

But you're right, everyone is an individual. For one I am not remotely spiritual (though I used to be). Until I see documented evidence in favor of it (which is different than exhibit A lacks evidence of everything else. so ghosts. ya. ghosts.) I give it a shrug- and that's just me! And you're just you!
I draw my line with religious tolerance when it starts influencing government or tries to peg it self as above the law. Ya-No.
