I always wondered how these guys make it through life.

I understand its a position of authority and an air of confidence is necessary at all times, but gods damned dude

"You had a phone in your right hand"

shows a complete lack of a right hand

"...You sure you don't have a hand?"

Its funny to me when a joke is literally translated so we miss the pun.

And when the pun is explained and then the joke is retold in the native language, I often still don't thinknits funny.

Terrible that comedy is often hard to translate.

Am I loosing it?

It looks the same. Not mirrored at all

Turns out I am

1. quite allergic to Bad Dragon Cum Lube

2. disgusting and I get it all over me and not just my hands since hand and dick washing didn't save me

Explanation:

After the death of Jesus and the destruction of Jerusalem, Christianity as we know it was beginning to take off amongst Greek and Roman Gentiles thanks to the efforts of people like Paul.

However, this created a problem amongst early Christians because a lot of them had simply never read the Torah or Old Testament. They were just convinced purely by the teachings of Jesus and had been heavily influenced by Platonism as a base philosophy. And when Jewish Christians from Jerusalem and Palestine met these converts, they tried to teach them about the "Old Testament".

Unfortunately, the Gentile Christians often refused to believe the god of Jesus and the god of the Jews was the same god because they thought the Old Testament god was wraithful and evil (my favorite example is when god let bears kill some kids for making fun of a bald guy 2 Kings:23-25).

One such group of Christians were the Marcionites founded by Marcion of Sinope. It claimed the god of the old testament was the Creator deity, the Demiurge. They aren't a gnostic sect because Marcion was using what would become canon such as the writings of Paul and a source of Jesus sayings. This is opposed to the Valentinians who used revealed or gnostic information to form their theology.

Unfortunately, we mostly know about these early so called "gnostic" sects of Christians through condemnations from early church fathers. We have a good portion of Marcions cannon texts, but not a complete picture of their church. But they were significant at the time. Early Catholics had official instructions for their congregation to ask for a "Catholic Christian Church" when they travelled because a Gnostic church was just as likely to be in the town as a Catholic one.

Favorite example of OT God being a wrathful bitch go!

Mines the bears that kill the kids.

Kicked his wife out so her crying wouldn't interrupted his death bed philosophy session with his homies.

USSR: "We would never invade Poland and have camps where we work polticial enemies and minorities to death! How inhumane! For shame Germany!"

I mean... Usually the Forestry and Animal control folks have yo put down deer who will approach people anyways.

So...

There are rabbinic writings claiming that Abraham actually did kill Isaac, just not the full sacrifice. Apparently the type of sacrifice that would have been done includes plunging a knife into the heart of the sacrificial animal while its burning. Abraham was already at the last step which means Isaacs body was on fire.

Also only Abraham returns from the mountain. Isaac isn't mentioned.

The Rabbinic writings claim Isaac was revived though. I think they brought his ashes to the Temple, and God reconstituted him. I need to find the reference.

Professor PugJesus, are YOU telling ME the people who wear DICK necklaces and vote on the divine nature of their emperors are superstitious?

Being funny is the cure to being annoying

Well you won't see a lot of discussion about it here as its developers explicitly ban players from trying to run it on Linux for "cheating and bug report reasons"

Its a good game that regularly updates and listens to player feedback and also isn't predatory.

Its a pretty fun loop since its completely about organic player interactions and toxic greifing

I played it a lot back in the day. Only problem is its one of those games you gotta REALLY get into. Like fall asleep while running the game so you can hear your base getting raided type shit. It has CSGO like gun play so you can practice spray patterns and go to training servers.

You can get real sweaty there.

Simultaneously there's a lot of 2x 5x and 10x servers for more casual play.

Its a good game and a lot of fun when your friends are into it.

Is this a quote from them?

Fucking cowards for not writing it with these rules.

I will never forget walking through the portrait gallery at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore and how absolutely disgusted I felt at every single person depicted.

If it wasn't a biblical picture it was some sycophantic ruler surrounded in relative excess. A class of people as old as time and just as deserving of their status now as they've always been.

Diogenes was right and I won't act like any wealth hoarder no matter the time period is deserving of admiration.

I know its a meme, but man I loathe the wealthy.

I meant "bonking" but I'm keeping honking as an exercise for the reader

It has everything, it has AI, it has Jakub, it has Nazis, it has Nazi conspiracy theory, it has Starseed bullshit
