my obsession with Ger

At the risk of sounding like a stalker or pervert, I find myself wanting to discuss my obsession with Ger from the braxeen bar. He is a nice height, average for a man. He's kind of handsome but maybe (no one ever agrees with who I find handsome) also devilishly charming. 

Holy life

Title: Being a Holy Person in a World That Calls It LunacySubtitle: When your deepest calling feels completely at odds with the modern age — and why it might be more important than ever.Hi everyone,In our hyper-rational, productivity-obsessed, scroll-driven world, wanting to live as a “holy person” sounds like pure lunacy to many. Talk about hearing inner guidance, feeling a connection to something transcendent, prioritizing prayer/contemplation over hustle, or sensing a divine thread running through everyday life — and people often respond with polite concern or outright dismissal. “That’s cute… but have you tried therapy?”Yet here I am. And I suspect I’m not alone.Being a holy person today doesn’t mean wearing robes or withdrawing completely from life (though some are called to that). For me, it means orienting my entire existence around a relationship with the Divine — listening for higher guidance, treating ordinary moments as sacred, seeking purity of heart, and trying to embody...

living with my parents

Title: Grateful for the Pennies: Navigating the Bank of Mum and Dad While Benefits Catch Up Subtitle: A little term my friend coined that somehow makes asking for help feel lighter – and a whole lot of gratitude. Hi everyone, There’s a phrase my friend invented that I’ve come to love: “getting pennies.” It refers to those of us who come from families that can help financially, receiving support from parents while we figure things out — especially when we’re pursuing the kind of work or creative callings that don’t always come with an immediate steady paycheck. It’s a gentle, slightly humorous way to acknowledge something that can otherwise feel awkward: being an adult who is, for a season, supported by the Bank of Mum and Dad. Right now, that’s exactly where I am. I’m waiting for my benefits application to be processed, and in the meantime, my parents have kindly stepped in with what we’ve affectionately dubbed “pennies.” It’s not a fortune. It’s just enough to cover the basics while t...

belief

A counterargument centered on psychological validity, utility, and lived human experience can indeed challenge strict materialist dismissals like those in The God Delusion . It shifts the frame from "Is this ontologically true?" (Dawkins' primary lens: lack of empirical evidence for a supernatural creator, evolutionary explanations for religion as a byproduct or meme) to "Do these beliefs and experiences function as valid adaptations for human flourishing?" This is more pragmatic, phenomenological, and psychological than metaphysical. Core Thesis for Your Paper A comprehensive psychological survey of beliefs, subjective experiences, and outcomes across diverse populations would demonstrate that religious, spiritual, superstitious, astrological, and New Age practices are functionally valid for large segments of humanity. Validity here is measured not by falsifiable supernatural claims but by: Prevalence and persistence (indicating deep alignment with human cogn...
