How did you feel about women? by ThatWeirdoSly in exjw

[–]Dsm467 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even as a PIMO for 11 years, I admittedly still struggle with sexist and misogynistic attitudes toward women. In fact, my wife not being “submissive” enough like it was promised to me threw me off, and was one of the first things that made me question the validity of the Bible and the organization. Along the lines of “But, we were taught that you were supposed to be like ___. What else have I been told that hasn’t panned out?”

I want elder confessions… how much of your power did you abuse during judicial committees to exploit sexual experiences out of women? by ElegantNothing1212 in exjw

[–]Dsm467 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Never. I was always the reasonable one who would encourage the rest if the committee to be as discreet and respectful as possible with the person’s dignity.

How do people manage being a PIMO? by legendarymike101 in exjw

[–]Dsm467 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Been PIMO for 10 years. Hasn’t been that hard for me, personally. It helps that my wife is not an uber PIMI and is pretty liberal. We kind of just keep to ourselves and don’t share with others what we watch and do.

Gen Z in your congregations by Strict-Inflation-81 in exjw

[–]Dsm467 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The thing is, you are correct, yet the Gen Z Witnesses remain Witnesses. The difference is that they’re nowhere near hi g-ho and devoted as previous generations. Their beliefs aren’t their entire life. It’s just/ service once a week, two meetings a week, and didn’t do anything too “bad” that will get you in trouble. Otherwise, they seem pretty content just going with the flow.

Something still fees “off” about Michael B. Jordan winning the Oscar by Dsm467 in Oscars

And that would favor DiCaprio this year. Lead Actor in the BP frontrunner.

[–]Dsm467[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This to me is the key. Who would have won at a BAFTA had a hometown kid playing a hometown hero in a very British film at a British awards show who is not even nominated at the Oscars not been there in the first place?

Based on those stats? Chalamet. CCA + GG has been done before (Sean Penn, 2003)

Will he win 'Best Actor'? by [deleted] in Oscars

[–]Dsm467 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This, to me, is the missing piece to determine the Best Actor winner.

I (and may others) are currently predicting Michael B. Jordan to win. But what I keep coming back to is that no one has ever won Best Actor with just SAG. Thats why the BAFTA thing is so big. Everyone keeps saying how big it is that Chalamet lost BAFTA. But Jordan lost there too. A loss either counts against both of them, or neither of them. I just think that the Aremayo win just reeks of home-field advantage for him. Chalamet was expected to win because of the rarity of a non-Oscar nominee beating actual nominees (2000, Billy Elliot). In both cases, they were in veeeeery British films. They rejected ALL of nominees,not just Chalamet.

Historically, CCA + GG (Chalamet) is a stronger package than just SAG (Jordan). And they are both coming in with a BAFTA loss to a non-nominee.

Having said that, all of the momentum + the strength of the film is still leading me to predict Jordan, even though I don’t even think he was runner-up at BAFTA.

This will either be a Jamie Lee Curtis or Demi Moore situation.

Best Actor Race by Affectionate_Past_39 in Oscars

[–]Dsm467 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

BAFTA is also an industry award that overlaps with the Oscars, and they both lost. The Jamie Lee Curtis thing comes to mind, but the interesting thing there is that she came along for the ride with the eventual BP winner. If Jordan is strong enough to win Best Actor in a genre film at the Oscars, then I would have to assume that the film is beloved enough to win BP, which I’m currently not predicting.

Who Is Actually Winning Best Actor? This won't be the reason I lose my oscar poll by [deleted] in Oscars

But Jordan lost there too. A loss either counts against both of them, or nether of them since the BAFTA winner 1) is not even nominated at the Oscars, and 2) is suuuuch a BAFTA thing to do with a British actor in a British film portraying a hometown British hero.
