I’ve used that before for something like: ”I opened the fridge door, and out came this cheesecake!”

I meant: “Are you okay?” as a genuine inquiry and/or as a way to start a conversation.

Saying: “Are you okay?”, can sometimes work.

I put a string of lights around the wheelchair ramp out the back about 2 years ago. I didn’t switch them off at the end of the year because they were ‘landing lights’! A fox pretty soon bit through them anyway. Regarding birthdays: I’m sure no one wants to go back to having a book of dates to remember, and feeling forced to look for presents. (Before the Truth dad would give me £10 in February, and I would give it back to him in March!) But a brother quietly thanking Jehovah for another year of his life is completely different, imo.

Although POTUS has rattled Canada. Incoming stern letters? Regarding an Iron Dome, I think he said he wants a beautiful ’Golden Dome’.

Regarding AI: I recently asked ChatGPT which sitcom a certain catchphrase came from. It made up an answer because it ‘sounded likely’ and ‘needed to reply promptly’! I told it to check again and it found the right one after a longer search.

I was reading yesterday about Elon Musk’s recent rush to build a super-duper computer for his AI ambitions. He has named his computer Colossus, after the movie: Colossus: The Forbin Project. Movie spoiler: I wonder how far this AI madness will go. If it will be seen as some ‘Tower of Babel’ to protect mankind from destruction (from themselves, or God). ‘Mankind can’t direct their own steps, but maybe computers can do it!’ Ironically, AI itself requires huge amounts of energy - which is currently harming the planet.

I think it’s all about shifting the blame now. (For Trump not producing a peace deal in x days.)

So you are saying more new stuff at the A.M. and a bumper 256 page WT next summer with all the details? I like your thinking!

So massive shortages of parts, people selling fake parts, … I hope no one gets hurt.

This made me laugh:

Regarding an increase of manufacturing multi-part products in USA, instead of paying tariffs: If this does happen then I’m guessing the manufacturers will be ‘given permission’ to ignore a multitude of patents/copyrights belonging to other countries. That will go down well!

Three-day Great Tribulation confirmed! 🥳

I think POTUS recently said, ‘Wouldn’t it be good if we got rid of nuclear weapons?’ So I expect that will happen any day now. (Attempt at humour.) Looking back, during the 1980’s I was actually quite panicky about WW3/nuclear attacks. Coming into the truth and seeing the big picture was such a relief.

It’s now possible to click on the little square next to a note in the Study Panel, and see the note without first opening the scripture etc.
