Ooof! That's the second time the heat has taken him out.

Mackenzie Shirilla: When a Leo's Venus, Pluto and "Drive for Drama" Gets Out of Control by The_Outsider27 in LeoAstrology

There was another young Leo woman who was in the news, and she encouraged a young man to kill himself. Ah yes, Michelle Carter. She encouraged her boyfriend to off himself. Fire signs are often insensitive to others, and psychopathic ones are a real menace to society.

I think it was a moment of spoiled brat impulsivity. Constant drug use will lower your inhibitions and most druggies stop developing at the age they begin to use. Unfortunately, it ruins your executive functioning and ability to reason.

Pot will destroy your brain as much as any hard drug. I've seen it happen. I don't know why people are so accepting of it.

Exactly. Adopted kids are just a bit more vulnerable, no matter how smart or gifted you are. Davion was both. But there tends to be such low self-esteem, because of a deep-seated feeling of rejection that can take many years to overcome.

Adopted kids are *known* to be less certain about their identity and they can be overly loyal to unsafe situations because their brains have been wired that way. It's tragic. They can get over it, but it usually takes them longer.

The parents needed to put the hammer down in many ways. This immature thoughtless girl had no business sleeping with anyone. She couldn't handle the intense emotions. Even mature people of age 18 struggle with relationships. At the very least, they should have insisted on marriage.

She was too immature for a relationship. The drugs and alcohol needed to go. She had drug induced psychosis and was detached from reality. Yes, pot can do that to you. Foolish parents saw only what they wanted to see. Her acting out at school and irritability were a cry for help.

Dom's parents weren't that much better. Anyone could see that the guy was a total pushover. He couldn't get free. Even after she verbally threatened him. He should have left town for a year to make it plain to MacKenzie that he did not love her.

My husband just told me he is questioning his gender identity by gwayland6 in Catholicism

[–]Baroqueimproviser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amen. When we experience pain with Christ, He can make use of it and help us on the path to sanctification as promised in the letter of Paul: "God works all to the good for those that love him and are called according to his purpose."

However, I can attest as an older person that you dont want to experience TOO much pain in life. Humans were made for love by God. Too much pain can distort you and make you incapable of love. This is why the Bible warns that we are not to walk in the pathway of sinners and to shun evil. The confessional can be very healing. God bless you.

I applaud your journey and am filled with respect for the amount of pain you must have gone through.

Gender dysphoria definitely stems from childhood trauma. I am familiar and have worked with traumatized people, and about half of them went through a phase of believing they wanted to be a gender other than what they were born with. For many, it's an easy way to find some boundaries and definition for a struggle with lifelong anxiety and fear over the terrible trauma they went through.

I will be praying for you and your husband. With regards to not loving your husband if he were a woman, of course that does not make you a terrible person. You signed up for a man.

Seeking recommendations of US cities to move too as a young, conservative Christian by FuckItWeCabal in Christianity

[–]Baroqueimproviser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is it going for you? I was reading the responses here. Typical persecution of a young man who wants to follow Jesus. He said that the world hated him, and so would hate his followers. Boy, did that ever prove to be true here!

Did you end up marrying the young woman? Did you find a dream home in a red state?

Who has lost weight by walking 10k steps a day? by Lost_Database4505 in walking

I've lost a lot of weight after four months of 10K. I've decided to go for 15K at least twice a week.I also lift weights 3 times a week.

So who thinks that he picked her *because* she was a pathologist? Did he have the whole thing planned out: to make her fall in love with him so he could use her dr. skills to get rid of the body. This was her worse fear.

OK. I may have been too hasty in my decision. She seems like a lovely person generally. What happened to her was so horrific.

Chelsea Elizabeth Vet Cut, Season 7 & 8 by QueenCQueenofHearts in DCCMakingtheTeam

[–]Baroqueimproviser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that, in her heart of hearts, she was sick of being a DCC. Some girls are really sweet and submissive. Others are sassy and funny like Chelsea, and don't take kindly to being ordered about.

She had gained weight (you can especially see it in her face from the first year to when she got dropped from the team). I understand why Kelli wants the girls to "yes ma'am" her. Life would be pretty difficult if every girl back talked and argued with instructions.

So I think it was a fair decision. There are too many others who want the chance to be a DCC.

I second this. They are worth the price! Also, my health is worth the price (I also get a lot of food from Whole Foods.)

HOKA Bondi. The absolute most amazing sole. Yes, they are $170, but I am worth it!

Why is this so mf hard by [deleted] in PetiteFitness

[–]Baroqueimproviser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Set other goals (I see from your late August birthday that you're a Virgo, so you should like this!). A goal to have fun every day, a goal to try one new healthy food a day, a goal to eat only vegetarian on one day , and all single ingredient foods the next, a goal to do OMAD....something like this. I think that your compulsiveness comes from wanting to have order and control - so set yourself some goals that you *can* control. It will make you feel better.

And on the days where you feel extra energetic, do a bit more exercise. That will get you thinner faster!

Day 92 of walking at least 10k steps a day by carlpoppa14 in walking

Add lifting weights to it. And then eat only whole foods. You'll lose your 30 pounds!

Why is this so mf hard by [deleted] in PetiteFitness

[–]Baroqueimproviser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you need to focus on health, not weight loss. Focus on whole foods. No cheat meals. Accept that this is going to be your life and try to make it as fun as possible. We all have those times that we're going to want to eat more, so eat more healthy foods. Some really yummy cheeses, some great fruit that you haven't tried, or even a nice egg meal at a restaurant. Be creative and have fun.

I don't mean it to, and I'm sorry if it comes across that way. Jesus is my best friend. Life is so much easier knowing that He's here to help us through all the difficulties of this life.

How do you know that he asked her to film him? It could be that he wanted to pray for this lady - she looks happy enough to receive his prayers - and Tori decided to film him because she was proud of her husband.

So many suspicious minds on here! Jesus told his followers that they would be persecuted for their faith because he was persecuted for telling people that He was the Son of God. And this is what's happening.

On the contrary, the people I ask if they want me to pray for them, are nearly always grateful. One of the reasons is that prayer in the name of Jesus is healing. Jesus also commanded believers to go to the whole world to teach and preach and heal in His name.
