i've been thinking about this comment for quite some time already, it frustrates me so much. i'll try to rebut this point in the least meanest way possible: stop buying into academy's lies, they aren't an international award, they are and always were an amarican award. treating it as such will be more useful for fighting anglophone hegemony. international movies don't need to be recognized in united states of a to be a success. your favorite spanish movie is doing great w/o the academy. be free. also check out goya awards while we are at it

Life has an interesting way of pulling you in the direction you’re meant to go in regardless of how far you’ve wandered off…

honestly I'm tired of people saying "life, destiny, the universe"

thinking about the fact that there’s practically nothing preventing children from consuming hardcore pornography on the internet, but yet you could be jailed for handing a child a pornographic magazine.

I just seriously don’t understand why porn is so fucking accessible. I don’t understand why it’s easier for a child to access violent porn than it is for them to purchase a PG-rated movie.

Why we should submit to God:

· We should submit to God because He created us.

· We should submit to God because His rule is good for us.

· We should submit to God because all resistance to Him is futile.

· We should submit to God because such submission is absolutely necessary to salvation.

· We should submit to God because it is the only way to have peace with God.

(Spurgeon)

What does it mean to draw near to God?

· It means to draw near in worship, praise, and in prayer.

· It means to draw near by asking counsel of God.

· It means to draw near in enjoying communion with God.

· It means to draw near in the general course and tenor of your life.

(Spurgeon)

From the rest of James 4 we see the results of drawing near to God:

· Drawing near to God helps us to resist the devil.

· Drawing near to God helps us to become pure.

· Drawing near to God helps us to sorrow for sin.

· Drawing near to God helps us to speak well of other people.

· Drawing near to God helps us to think of eternal things.

everyone is always acting like there is some crisis of human interaction with one another because everyone is overly sensitive to how strangers approach them and like. no actually its because nobody has any fucking manners. social etiquette has legitimately vanished. it makes interacting with strangers miserable because people don’t know how to fucking behave in public.

like it is rude to stare. it is rude to point. it is rude to have a loud phone conversation in a quiet place. it’s rude to listen to music or videos or whatever on your device with no headphones on a loud volume, or at any volume in an enclosed or quiet space. these are rude things to do. like i’m sorry while some etiquette is silly, an acceptable level of decorum is necessary to make existing in public bearable for everybody…….it is LITERALLY common courtesy

God our Father, glorious in giving life, and even more glorious in restoring it, when his last night on earth came, your Son shed tears of blood, but dawn brought incomparable gladness. Do not turn away from us, or we shall fall back into dust, but rather turn our mourning into joy by raising us up with Christ.
