I m from Chicago so I can relate. So far I haven't think some of the friends here in Texas style are starting to really change. We have a lot of people moving here especially in the DFW area and Houston area from Chicago, New York, LA and Georgia.

The term gaslighting came from a play written by Patrick Hamilton in 1938 and was used notably in the U.S. version of the 1944 film. Gaslighting means when someone manipulates another person into doubting their own perception of reality, memory, or judgment. It does not mean being ignored. That is why therapists dislike its incorrect use. True gaslighting is recognized in some U.S. states such as California, Connecticut, and New York in cases of domestic abuse or coercive control, but not on its own. As Jehovah requires honesty and hates lying and emotional harm, Bible principles would guide us to avoid being involved in the true definition of gaslighting. Scriptures: Proverbs 6:16-19; Zechariah 8:16; Ephesians 4:25; John 8:44.

They still dress the same

Don't let the fact that I have this piercing label me as weak, unwise or anything in a way that's not spiritual. I'm very firm and stable in the truth! Enough to know that whatever decision any one of us makes we have to live with. Did I know when I got it that some wouldn't be acceptable to it yes! Did I care no? Have it stopped me from being on the school, or cart-witnessing, or going door to door no. Maybe I'm overthinking on the post about weakness. Which I do have the tendency to overthink, but my spirituality isn't based on my appearance.

I live in a diverse area!

Twenty-six officers have been injured while policing a protest organised by far-right activist Tommy Robinson, which saw up to 150,000 people march through central London. Tensions flared at the Unite the Kingdom rally, with some protesters throwing bottles and other projectiles at police, the Metropolitan Police said – leaving four seriously hurt. Tech billionaire Elon Musk spoke to protesters on Whitehall via videolink; while 5,000 people joined a nearby counter-protest organised by Stand Up To Racism. The Met said 25 people had been arrested for a range of offences in what it described as "wholly unacceptable" violence.

Sunday, September 14 Comprehend fully what is the breadth and length and height and depth.—Eph. 3:18. When deciding whether to buy a house, you would want to examine all the aspects of your future home in person. We can do something similar when we read and study the Bible. If you just read it quickly, you may learn only basic facts—“the elementary things of the sacred pronouncements of God.” (Heb. 5:12) Instead, as with the house, go “inside” to examine the rich details. An excellent way to study the Bible is to see how the various parts of its message connect together. Endeavor to understand not only what truths you believe but also why you believe them. To understand God’s Word fully, we must learn deep Bible truths. The apostle Paul urged his Christian brothers and sisters to study God’s Word diligently so that they could “comprehend fully what is the breadth and length and height and depth” of the truth. Then they would become further “rooted and established” in their faith. (Eph. 3:14-19) We need to do the same. w23.10 18 ¶1-3

People use the word procrastinate to mean lazy, delaying. I consider myself an anti-crastinator, just delaying, but not lazy about it.

Interesting the campaign that we are doing.. Happenstance I think not.. Special Campaign During September 2025, Jehovah’s Witnesses are making a worldwide effort to share the Bible’s answers to the following questions: Why have mankind’s efforts to end war failed? How can you be sure that true peace is possible and will soon become a reality? We are distributing this article and the magazine that it is a part of in over 450 languages. As part of this campaign, we are also presenting a special public talk around the world on the theme:

naught means nothing, so saying someone is naughty also means nothing

I had an argument with someone (well, "argument" is a strong word ... we had a strong disagreement) who was convinced Charles Lindberg staged his own child's kidnapping and ...well, you know the rest. I engaged with this person on the topic as I shared with him that I had just finished reading a biography on Lindberg. A chapter or two covered this part of this life, laying out some pretty convincing evidence it was not a staged kidnapping for ... fill in the blank ___________ ... Lindberg's own profit? Another future mystery likely to be solved (potentially) in the New System. 🧐

All such mysteries—even seemingly trivial ones—will be answered in the resurrection (Jehovah-permitting) in the New World to come! 🙂

Virginia Dare (born August 18, 1587; date of death unknown) was the first English child born in an American English colony. She may be the oldest mystery on this continent, although some guesses put her death at 1561

Likewise, I believe the label "Passive-Aggressive" is similarly fallen out of favor with the psychologist experts.

Early signs of Autumn ... and ...it was a morning for nebulophile's on my daily morning walk today. 🙂 And a brain-looking mushroom found. Wondering if it's edible? 🤔

Questions from smarter than a fifth grader are not usually covered by fifth grade, Ex:Which direction does the sun rise? — East My answer would be that the sun does not revolve around the earth, therefore does not rise.

I will be home for meeting, tomorrow, b/c my doc's nurse called me today (my scheduled telemed) and said my doc will call tomorrow.

Many of the songs bring me (and others, I'm told) to tears. Don't know if that invites help-by- comforting (like a brace.) A sister came up to me after a meeting which talked about singleness and said her elder husb had noticed me fill up with tears. I whispered I do not feel single. She said, "No, you are a widow." And I have sons, so I'm plural.

Does more than one post on the same subject mean it is no longer random? Or that the person posting is trying to be recognized as a top contributor?
