Without them, we wouldn’t have a drink of water or water for bathing or anything we would be dead in a couple of days if those men did not do their job and bring us water
99% of the construction men, now they put token woman to do nothing but make the men more unsafe. Anyway, you guys are the ones who build the roof over our head. Please don’t forget that.
You guys bring us the gas and electricity we need to heat and make food
Please don’t forget that
You are the mechanics, the farmers, The architects, the oilman, the fisherman, the Hunter
You do literally everything that’s important to us all to survive
Great points, Sharon, thanks for posting them. What you said is very true, and you don't see feminists pushing for women to get into those dangerous, dirty jobs. They always seem to want the comfortable, safe office type jobs. They are content to let men do the worst jobs.
I heard it was because not only did they get sick easily because of all the horrible things, including radioactive stuff, but on top of that, they are always getting hit by cars.
Interesting to note, Sharon, thanks. Not surprising either. It has to be a very difficult job to get up and do every day, but if the men didn't do it, things would be very bad for society.
Re your third example, on anti-depressants (SSRI"s I imagine?), A MidWestern Doctor (The Forgotten Side of Medicine) did a long post (summer '23, I rhink) on the suicidal idealogy which is a not-infrequent side-effect of SSRI's. How many of our school shooters have been prescribed these drugs?
That does not surprise me at all. They hand those things out like candy, and the results speak for themselves. I don't doubt they played a role in my friend's suicide. He hid the fact that he was on them from his family, they didn't know about it until after he died. A terrible thing to find out about after the fact.
I remember that—though it was focused on mass shootings, which no doubt is a method of suicide. (The article’s comment section is also a treasure trove.)
Powerful. Thank you. It's not always easy, and sometimes its incredibly hard, but every day we drag ourselves through carrying the truth in our hearts is a victory over the evil bastards who would rather we were dead.
I'm glad you didn't do it, friend. As an aging white male myself I have had the same feelings over the years. Remember the 80s it was like everything was about us, geared toward us and our well being. Now everything is deliberately fake, queer and retarded, as the lunatics have truly taken over the asylum.
Besides my family and God to get me through the tough times, I always remember what Lemmy from Motorhead said: "Never let the bastards grind you down." So I won't let them and neither should you.
Thanks so much for your support, BP. I'm glad too and it's good to find someone that remembers that time period. It wasn't a perfect country, but it was far better than it is now. You are also right about everything being fake. You can't believe a word anybody in DC says, they are all lying scum, and I don't just mean the politicians, I mean the entire town and everybody in it.
Morgthorak, I "met " you only so very recently, but saw such value in your writing that last week I became a paid subscriber. Now I know why I love you. It's the second sentence of your headline, in fact, the first word, the subject, of that second sentence. Please, keep the faith and keep on writing. Surely, as more of us "out" ourselves, our strength (and our value) grow.
Thanks so much for your kind words, and your support, as well as the paid sub. I am glad that you liked the article.
Regarding the dek (the sub-headline), I did not really think about it at all, it just flowed out of me. I wrote it very quickly, and did not do much editing of it before I published the article. It is interesting how that happens, the words flow without me consciously thinking about them. An indication of the holy spirit working through me? I do not know.
All I know is that I sat down to write it and the words appeared. 🤔
Thanks, Saul. I'm glad too, and you are right about the regime, it is evil, depraved, and corrupt on a level that makes Caligula look like a second rate wannabe.
Hey friend, you don't have to wait to meet Jesus to see if the scales tip in your favor. That's not how it works. Jesus did everything necessary for you to enjoy Him forever. Do you believe that Jesus died for your sins and rose from the dead, and are you trusting Him fully? If the answer is “yes,” then you will be with Him in Heaven. Thank you for sharing your story.
Can’t remember where I read it, but a young man posted about feeling/being suicidal for quite some time and then snapped the hell out of once he realized that people/the system wanted him dead since the day he was born and he wasn’t going to make it easy for them to get rid of another white guy.
So true. Look at all of our homeless veterans and ask yourself why isn’t the Government racing to end this situation? They get them into their system and they get addicted or dependent on SSRI’s and other anti anxiety meds. What damaging adverse affects are creating the situation that caused them to end up homeless? They want them dead. It’s up to us to help them now. The Cavalry’s not coming.
Job 7:1 Is there not an appointed time to man upon earth? are not his days also like the days of an hireling?
Glad you're still with us. God knows your appointed days. Also, as one who also works a job most would consider menial, know that all our work is for Jesus. I'm sure you know that, but I need to remind myself sometimes...
Greetings, BK. Thank you for your kind words and support. Any honest work is good work, though others might look down their nose at it. Yet they are the same people who benefit from such labor. Ironic, isn't it? It is worth reminding yourself of your own value and it is good to take pride in one's work, whatever it might be. There is value in it and we should remember that every day.
Indeed! Your arrow hit its mark, Scott. The night can be both beautiful and terrible. Beautiful because one can see the stars and the moon in the heavens above, but terrible because the shades of night effect us deeply and there are things that go bump in the night. Sometimes those night things are external, but sometimes they are deep within each of us.
Was posting this on another stack but felt it would be useful here too: “Imagine Sysyphus Happy”
One does not discover the absurd without being tempted to write a manual of happiness. "What! by such narrow ways—? " There is but one world, however. Happiness and the absurd are two sons of the same earth. They are inseparable. It would be a mistake to say that happiness necessarily springs from the absurd discovery. It happens as well that the felling of the absurd springs from happiness. "I conclude that all is well," says Œdipus, and that remark is sacred. It echoes in the wild and limited universe of man. It teaches that all is not, has not been, exhausted. It drives out of this world a god who had come into it with dissatisfaction and a preference for futile suffering. It makes of fate a human matter, which must be settled among men.
[123]All Sisyphus' silent joy is contained therein. His fate belongs to him. His rock is a thing Likewise, the absurd man, when he contemplates his torment, silences all the idols. In the universe suddenly restored to its silence, the myriad wondering little voices of the earth rise up. Unconscious, secret calls, invitations from all the faces, they are the necessary reverse and price of victory. There is no sun without shadow, and it is essential to know the night. The absurd man says yes and his efforts will henceforth be unceasing. If there is a personal fate, there is no higher destiny, or at least there is, but one which he concludes is inevitable and despicable. For the rest, he knows himself to be the master of his days. At that subtle moment when man glances backward over his life, Sisyphus returning toward his rock, in that slight pivoting he contemplates that series of unrelated actions which become his fate, created by him, combined under his memory's eye and soon sealed by his death. Thus, convinced of the wholly human origin of all that is human, a blind man eager to see who knows that the night has no end, he is still on the go. The rock is still rolling.
I leave Sisyphus at the foot of the mountain! One always finds one's burden again. But Sisyphus teaches the higher fidelity that negates the gods and raises rocks. He too concludes that all is well. This universe henceforth without a master seems to him neither sterile nor futile. Each atom of that stone, each mineral flake of that night filled mountain, in itself forms a world. The struggle itself toward the heights is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy.
God bless you and your pup, Freeq. When I am doing deliveries, I carry Milk Bones with me for the good dogs I encounter, and also as a distraction for the bad dogs that sometimes give me problems. The really bad dogs run the risk of experiencing my stun baton or pepper spray. But I always reward the good ones with a Milk Bone.
Meh, they are nothing to me - merely a neverending source of cheap entertainment. As are govts, economies, elections or all the rest of it - nothing but background noise to me. No, the outside world is of no great concern.
We only get so long to begin with. Every day on the right side of the dirt is a victory over time and circumstance. Be proud be grateful and ask for another day to celebrate being here.
I think you are right about the drugs. They are supposed to help, but so many seem to have been pushed over the edge by them. Not to mention the school shooters, etc. There needs to be an investigation done and possibly removing them all from the market.
Males are 99.4% of water, sewer workers
Without them, we wouldn’t have a drink of water or water for bathing or anything we would be dead in a couple of days if those men did not do their job and bring us water

Oh, and I forgot the garbage man which is a very important job and they are the likeliest to die on the job
Also, policemen and firemen are much better as men obviously !!
It couldn’t be more obvious actually
Please don’t forget that

Thanks very much for troubling to find that post! This is different from the one I had read.
I wasn’t troubling. It’s the article I remembered and it was easy to find.
Glad you are here! I enjoy your stack very much.
Thank you, Martin, I appreciate the kind words and support.
Powerful. Thank you. It's not always easy, and sometimes its incredibly hard, but every day we drag ourselves through carrying the truth in our hearts is a victory over the evil bastards who would rather we were dead.
Thanks, Rottcodd. Yes, we must continue and not let them destroy us. At the very least we must be a thorn in their sides for as long as we are alive.
Ha, I don't doubt you'll make it. You know what they say: the orneriest organisms are the ones that live the longest, and you are very ornery! 😂
I'm glad you didn't do it, friend. As an aging white male myself I have had the same feelings over the years.

I’m very glad. They are wrong. They know you’re awesome. That’s why they want to take out the most best important competition that they have.

Isn’t He just wonderful? Wonderful, as in ‘full of my wonder and awe’
Amen! 🙏🏻
My goodness… thank you for sharing this. I’m so glad you “walked off the edge” at that time!.. The American regime is unholy..
Thanks, Saul. I'm glad too, and you are right about the regime, it is evil, depraved, and corrupt on a level that makes Caligula look like a second rate wannabe.

Excellent point and attitude. Don't make it easy for them. Stick around and be a thorn in their side for as long as possible.
So true. Look at all of our homeless veterans and ask yourself why isn’t the Government racing to end this situation?

Thanks so much, Ellis. You have been a great supporter, and I am glad you enjoy my writing. I am very glad to have you as a reader. 🥰

Thanks for I telling your story. I'm pretty sure that antidepressants actually cause suicide. It is probably even written in the side effects.
I think you are right about the drugs. They are supposed to help, but so many seem to have been pushed over the edge by them. Not to mention the school shooters, etc. There needs to be an investigation done and possibly removing them all from the market.
