#FamilyMan been married for >15 years and have two daughters. Those three girls are my greatest love on this planet.
I consider myself a #GNU Evangelist. Learning about what #FreeSoftware was, including GNU/Linux, opened my eyes to so many things: governments aren’t the only ones stealing individual rights, I know so much less about computers than I thought I did, the idea of code, I can make a difference without having to know anyone particular.
I’m employed as contract Engineer in the Metal industry. My workplace is not yet unionized, but I’m hoping to fix that. #Union member of the #IWW IU440. I don’t have an engineering degree. After discovering Free Software I took my political scientist butt and found a call center job that paid for me to go to Community College to study Software Engineering, where I learned that I liked the idea of coding a lot more than I liked coding. The blessings of God put some great opportunities in my lap at just the right time.
I’m a #Libertarian and have been for over 20 years. The love of libertarianism is what lead me to first to a BS in #political science and later to falling in love with Free Software. These days I lean toward the left side of the libertarian spectrum including being a member of the Libertarian #Socialist Caucus of the Libertarian Party (LSC-LP). Sometimes I call myself a #LibSoc.
I’m a huge #sports fan, but don’t following any particular sport/team super closely. Lately I’ve been getting into #Cricket in addition to my other passions of Professional #Wrestling, Lower Division North American #Soccer, NHL & College #hockey, #baseball #olympics & #rugby (union and #RugbyLeauge). My whole life used to be American #Football, but now-a-days I can’t stand it anymore than I can basketball.
I’m a #BornAgain #Christian, accepting #Jesus as my savior at age 9. Received #Believers Baptism at age 18. Received the baptism of the #HolySpirit as evident in speaking in #tougnes later that year. The #Spirit lead me to the #Catholic #Church at age 20 where I was confirmed at the Easter Vigil. I am a grateful believer in Jesus Christ in #recovery from lust. #XA #SA #CR Currently in the very early stages of discernment for joining the #Ecumenical order of #Fransicans (#OEF).
@anachronist you are in the midwest mate, what do you expect 😉
There’s nowhere in the Bible that it says everything of the faith is contained in the bible. Though it does say that we should cling to tradition even if not written “Therefore, brothers, stand firm and hold fast to the traditions that you were taught, either by an oral statement or by a letter of ours.” 2 Thessilonians 2:15
That being said, the Church usually points to Jesus as having instituted the sacrament of reconciliation here "Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you retain are retained.” John 20:23
AC/DC certainly isn’t current music in the 24th century 😉
At this point in history, I don’t see any way that SCOTUS weighing in on this is going to be beneficial.
@gravitas_deficiency @negativenull It’s not stealing it’s homesteading.
@ElderWendigo @negativenull In Michigan this week I saw a giant inflatable buck-ee with a santa hat on in some guys yard. I awesome he used to live in Texas.
@originalucifer this is so bad that is it wasn’t in is group I wouldn’t even realize it was supposed to be humerus.
@SwingingTheLamp I meant turning as in the Badgers where supposed to be “rebuilding” at best for the 23-24 season.
@Thanks4Nothing well share the link mate.
yes because that’s what we need another barrier to allowing voters to choose who the best individuals to represent them is.
@3c906042e889f081619588980bcf1ebca6a5443022ad6dd8205aba269577212b by chance do you know the original source of this image? I think @Thanks4Nothing has a great idea. It could be a fundraiser to suppor the ongoing costs of sopuli.xyz
@steinbring those open meeting laws are all bullshit just passed to make people feel good. In reality the decision process of local lawmakers never actually occur at the meeting, but in “casual conversation”
@HubertManne @Liz hey man if I didn’t have this gun the King of England could just walk in at anytime and start telling me what to do
At least AEW dodged one bullet.
