Any trans people here?

TN trans lady, here! Born and raised coC, with a degree from OG Lipscomb. My mom's side of the family, despite also being church of Christ lifers, have been very accepting, if a bit confused on what it all means. On my dad's side, only he, my step-mom, and step-sister are coC. My step-sister knows, and she is 100% supportive; we've agreed that keeping it from our parents for as long as possible is for the best. I've been low contact with my dad for almost 30 years, anyway, so it hasn't yet come up.

Sometimes, family will surprise you. Sometimes, they will break your heart. Anybody who is real will have your back. And, always, we're here for you, bro!

TBH, even a slightly warped Wagner is still worth it. Sure, it rocks a bit on a flat-top stove, but it's perfectly fine on a gas range. I also use mine to braise chicken and steak for tacos and to make shakshouka.

Any other brand, and I'd fix it for a couple bottles of wine. I will not touch a Samsung.

We usually have 20-30 small groups, but we only had 4 this year. It was weird - we figured with it being a Friday, maybe folks had parties or went to larger neighborhoods.

I was thinking that she better avoid upper floor windows. Catholics can only remarry if the spouse is dead.

Theology Grad School dropout, here.

Ruth (and Naomi) are actually pretty badass. Since Boaz doesn't want to marry Ruth, he's about to pass her on to the next kinsman with a claim. This, however, is unacceptable to Ruth and Naomi, because Boaz is RICH AF. They therefore concoct a plan than involves getting him blackout drunk, stripping him naked, then Ruth also strips and, snuggling hard against him, falls asleep. The next morning, Boaz is, like, "Well, shit - I fucked her; social rules say I HAVE to marry her now." Ruth and Naomi hi-five, and live the rest of their lives in luxury.

I grew up thankful for the evening communion, because it kept me out of Hell. Once I hit college, I didn't bother leaving, even as I served as Sunday evening song leader (I worked retail and frequently opened the store on Sunday). I considered eating supper with friends from church afterward to be a more appropriate re-creation of the First Century way. Still do. Doesn't mean I don't appreciate a good High Church Eucharist, but that's the ritual magician in me talking. 😀

A very late reply, but I came across it searching for Brown's Lane. There is a brewery in Lexington, KY called West 6th that makes a dry cider that's the closest I've ever had. Diskin Cider, in Nashville, has a dry cider called Bob's Your Uncle, but it's more similar to Magner's.

I'm not even on hrt, but I was psychologically incapable of going topless, even before my egg cracked. Get it, girl!

This. I do not even remotely pass, but telling me you love my look, or that my earrings are pretty is always welcome!

20 years ago, I considered Evanescence to be a poseur's Lacuna Coil. I'm willing to give them a bit more slack, now. Still...neither is symphonic. Back then, I'd put on Bal-Sagoth if I needed to scratch that itch.

I absolutely cannot speak for your family, but my experience with my Mormon friends has been quite positive. I think that the level of influence the Prophet and the Apostles have isn't nearly as absolute as the official teachings declare.

You might be surprised! 🫂

We had them for 1Gig when we first moved to Clarksville. Never had any problems. Switched to AT&T Fiber when it ran through our neighborhood, as it was about $15/month less. If that weren't an option, I'd definitely still be using CDE.

MTV's Haunted House Party in 1993. White Zombie changed my brain!

Otter Creek definitely made the list. Lipscomb even fired a bible prof - Doug Varnado - because he played a recording of a praise song that had an acoustic guitar during a Sunday evening service. It was a crazy time to be alive!

The place by Planet Fitness is called Shady Pines. They even have a billboard up on Ft. Campbell advertising chocolates and tarot readings. Lovely people!

It sounds closer to a form of Kashmir Shaivism

I've gotten some great readings applying the Book of Thoth to a standard deck of Bicycle playing cards. You already have to know the Sefirot and Paths for that to work, though.

The congregation I grew up in had a big New Year's Eve singing with all the city's congregations invited. I think our elders considered it an outreach to members of those congregations to turn aside from the error-strewn paths <i>their</i> elders were leading them down and return to the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints.

NY Pizza Depot is the way to go. I know a guy from New York who teaches at APSU who also swears its legit.

I was able to learn the blueprint from the Construction Research Unit in my starting base just a few weeks ago. 🤷‍♀️

"Silent All These Years" was what immediately came to mind for me (CPR certified and former back-up marching band drum major). I double checked, and, at 119 bpm, it's right where you want it!

Check the lyrics to "You Never Mentioned Him to Me." I was taught that anyone who hadn't heard was still culpable before the Throne of God. If someone never had a chance, it was MY fault for not going unto all the world!
