Sorry, you have a scale that can measure your water content?

I’m finishing Phillip Pullman’s “The Book of Dust” trilogy with “The Rosefield”

I heavily recommend the series to anyone interested in Magic, Consciousness, Fairies, and fighting a corrupt and evil Christian Church.

Pullman 's writing is flowing and subtle. Every pay off feels earned and all his foreshadowing is there enough that it feels like a mystery the reader can solve.

My favorite details are when details of events we’ve experienced in the book are mid remembered to other characters. Its often inconsequential, but I just love it when I know a character sounds so dumb for being wrong but they couldn’t know!

To add to this, I personally recommend “Did Jesus Exist” as the Dr. Ehrman follow up.

It has the same vibe as Dr. McClellan’s book while also being an incredibly useful popular academic book. Just as accessible and covers the second most important part of Christianity to understand, the origin as opposed to the current discourse.

“How Jesus became God” being a natural progression.

I finished the book a while back and I reference it often.

Its really good. All of the book is formatted as long form responses with citations and solid academic reason without being inaccessible.

What jargon there is is fully explained in the intro or in the text.

It was in fact a wonderful resource for a modern interpretation for the bible and a resource on modern discourse around it if you’re not religious like myself.

Its good enough that I keep a spare copy to give to friends if they’re interested in interpretations of stories inspired by or from Dan.

Glad I don’t give Redhat money.

Thanks for the free stuff dic-

“What the hell is autism? Sounds like being a brat!”

I thought you said it was “frustrating” seeing some with nuance get upvoted and I appreciated the sarcasm on that and the sincerity in this one

I see clearly now great master.

Truth beyond understanding.

Exists only in the armpit of the soul.

Thank you for wisdom

Thinking of him

I see.

That’s a lot of words that conjur a coherent enough idea of what you believe but does very little convincing.

So back to the question.

God will give us knowledge but with a forked tonuge. What does this mean?

To me this means god is a deceiver of some sort and thus you’ve spoken a contradiction. Is this the intent?

What’s the implications of

God can give you Knowledge, and it’s usually through a forked tongue.

Also how serious is this post because I would love to have this conversation.

Well the second part of his thought is that you’re not allowed to be happy until you’re perfect.

So you figured out the rest of his destructive philosophy

He did say that no body is a perfect 10/10 and that looksmaxxing will have to be a life long struggle.

So hes already in the right mindset to do that.

I wanna believe that Ivermectine is so consistently reported by these people as helpful because they all have parasites from raw meat diets. So when they get sick with covid the wormer does make them feel better, but not because of the covid.

As a mediocre white guy who dropped out of college

Fuck that guy

They get points for correcting, but not enough to warrant praise.

“We’ve been promoting gambling to children for years, and not a single one of us thought that was bad until a Youtuber with a large following pointed that out to us. So we stopped.”

Should be read

“Someone with the reach to hurt our bottom line spoke up”

I’ve got a virtualized set up to.

Its pretty unbothered being virtualized so long as the disks are passed through. In my set up, I have the SAS board passed through and its using that.

My reasoning is that I wanted a lot of disks space, but I couldn’t get that without just a big case in general, so I use the extra space to store GPUs for AI and encoding stuff

Oh isn’t this the artist that does porn too?

Sorry I can’t finish this meme. I got to the second one and I was two tired.

Bowling For Soup either made it or covered it. Hard to tell with punk tbh
