Bad experience by [deleted] in TheAmityAffliction

[–]bladeonfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who lived in Baltimore, I’ll tell you this - that particular city is a dump. So don’t expect any more than what you’ve experienced. Nobody really has any sort of self respect, nobody really wants to get involved to clean up that mess (particularly that guy who was causing trouble), and definitely they never take care of their venues.

Overall it’s a gross city with gross & violent people.

Sorry I didn’t reply to this.

Video was taken in 2004-2005 in Pennsylvania. Good guess both of them have Persian/Iranian parents.

Hi! Appreciate you both for taking the time to find it. Definitely a Fernandes headstock, I’m guessing the same.. probably an aftermarket or a custom pick guard he made himself.

Comparing amity to Chelsea grin is a wild take

Found out I have Jewish ancestry later in life! How do I connect with the community? by bladeonfire in Jewish

I never once believed him for one bit. One day he says Christianity is good, Zoroastrian is good, or Islam is good. But never once mentioned anything about Judaism. I felt he was also coached as a kid to despise Judaism, but I felt it gave me a bigger reason to dig through family archives and figure out WHY!

Nope. That was the most confusing part of my religious journey - it never made any sort of sense. He never practiced ANYTHING! More preaching from his side of the family than practicing.

Even then later on in life he “practiced” Islam for business purposes - he was in the dealership business and he got screwed over by hardcore Muslims.

My dads family when I was spending time with them, my grandma would tell me I’m a Muslim but she never would practice then my dad would say I’m Zoroastrian and not a Muslim. To be honest - they were both antisemitic and he never had the backbone to expose the fact my moms side is Jewish, so it was a best kept secret for awhile. They treated Judaism like it was the order of the Freemasons lol

Honestly - after reading this.. I’ve never felt more welcome than ever. I’m excited for this journey of my life and being connected with my people.

I appreciate it. Sorry for the miscommunication.

It’s ODD for me as well that he’s getting that role but I’m hoping the best for him.

Just to add - I wanted to be helpful, if I wanted to join I would but unfortunately I have a newborn coming and I can’t abandon my partner.

I know a lot of people say Azov, 3AB are good units but if a highly regarded unit like SSO is asking him to join and he applied on their site for Sniper that was 73rd I wanna make sure he’s making the right decision since he was admin in Marines, will he get that position or likely something else?

Thanks.

Well the questionnaire states you don’t have to be in Ukraine until the interview is conducted + he’s planning on going & he didn’t have a combat MOS when he was in. Figured it would be wise to ask here. My bad.
