But to regard your concern, it really isn’t that religious. It’s just old literature that hasn’t been changed ever, partly as matter of respect for the source, but also as a safeguard to keep the intended simplicity of it all. That gets threatened, if one of the goals of the texts becomes to encompass all types of believe-systems, religious or not.

I share your believe, as I felt I wasn’t taking personal responsibility for my addiction, but putting it in the hands of others. I looked around, and saw how many where trapped the exact same place in life as when they entered. I do believe the program is beneficial for a lot of people, but that for even more, it becomes a crutch, as you say. “Clean on the knuckles”, as goes a popular saying. 2/

Former AA/NA person here, with lots of involvement in service and committees back then… The program was conceived in 1935, when religion was arguably a way bigger part of most people’s lifes. It has been up to debate to rewrite the literature, prayers and mantras quite a few times since then, mainly because of a growing resistance towards the religious sounding paragraphs for a lot of members. But every time the conclusion has been, simply put: if it ain’t broken don’t fix it. 1/

#34 as a person with AUDHD and all the amazing illnesses it brings with it, I can’t stress how important a proper sleep-schedule, exercise and nutrition has been for my functionality. The drugs gave me that small bit I needed to follow through with those, and they in turn made me more functional than “normal” people. Now my spicy brain is working for me and not against me, but if I leave my SEN-routine for more than a few weeks I become the exact mess most people picture AUDHD people as.

Acetone and styrofoam makes straight up napalm.
My guess is other highly flammable solvents also works.

Being overly nice can send 2 wrong signals to a desirable mate: you’re not very confident, and you’re a people pleaser. Both bad survival traits.
The get-around for this is respect. If you can prove integrity towards yourself, and that you don’t go out of your way just to avoid conflict, your niceness becomes hella sexy, because you’re not doing it to be liked or win affection, you’re doing it because it is morally right. And chicks dig that in my experience.

Please, my cultural stirpot of gogetters, save us. Our leaders on the other side of the pond has seen what’s possible, and now they become more and more blatantly evil, and there’s less and less resistance from the people. They are giving up, they are not used to navigate this bullshit like a lot of you Americans. Please help us get rid of the filth in power, before it is not only you, but the entire western society that suffers under unregulated capitalism. Us that aren’t protected are begging.

This was a ballin’ setup in 2001, man I had the whole village’s kids over. Till some sucker got a PC with Windows 95 on it. I speedrunned about 20 years of tech, because my family was poor AF back then, So I’ve laid hands on pretty much all the classic TV consoles, back when they where just garbage you could even get for free some times, and not collector pieces… I would’ve had the start of a healthy down payment for a house if I’d known the future worth of some of those machines.

Nothing matters, everything’s made up. Everything has the exact meaning we put into it. Positive nihilism. You matter, because I now say you do. I find it hard to make myself matter, but I find, that if I make others, it kinda rubs off on me. I make music sometimes, making nothing into matter. That kinda helps as well.

The past 5 years or so. Only difference is, a lot of riots in the US would’ve been called protests, if the populace wasn’t armed.

That just don’t make any sense. Assuming you’re from the US, I take you’ve witnessed the amount of protests in your country 1/

Well, it’s a lot harder if you’re poor, and boring as hell.U can have a lot more fun, tasty but still healthy diet, if you got money for it.

I wouldn’t call 3 months mandatory notice after 6 months of employment “not that long”. “Only” extends to 6 months mandatory, but still.

Either it's something girls normally think about, or I'm into a type that do. The constructive part is how I use it best for them obviously.

Let alone the fact you can win an election with less than 50% of the votes, like he did this term, is disgusting... What is democracy?
