If the throne of heaven sits empty and then it is up to us to create a world full of mercy, kindness, safety, and love.
Growing up Evangelical I was told that without God there were no morals, no meaning, and no truth.

I am now an atheist, and I realized something, they meant “objective” morals, meaning, and truth.

Well I’m getting new followers so I think that means I need to do another unhinged rant about love.

I keep getting more followers on here. Am I going to have to make Friday night rants a thing until y’all stop?

I am sorry that today I must report a tragedy:
Last night I was feeling tired and unmotivated and did not clean my dishes.

And so this morning my French Press was in cleaned and I had to do dishes before making coffee.

What greater sorrow has ever befallen man?

Well, you were warned and you’re still here so…this is on you.

In order to understand my views on love you have to understand two things. 1) I was raised Pentecostal and 2) I’m autistic and I have the 20 page psych evaluation to prove it. This means I assume people mean what they say.

Guys seriously. It’s gonna be a mega thread that starts with Corinthians and my evangelical upbringing and ends with a diatribe against capitalism selling a hollow, mass-produced replica of meaning.

You don’t really want that to show up in your feed, do you?

You know it’s going to be a good day when you notice the carton in your hand is Chicken Broth rather than Almond Milk BEFORE you pour it in your coffee…

Look, if y’all don’t stop following me I’m going to post a long thread on the concept of love, the various confusions I think people have about it, and why I think it is so highly valued.

You have until Friday.
You have been warned.

Hot take: post-rationalists are still rationalists cladistically. Sometimes there are people who think like the post-rats but that’s a case of convergent evolution, much like how biological evolution keeps spitting out “crabs.”

My biggest gripe with Blue Sky so far is that I cannot see the reply box when I am typing a reply. Lemme scroll between original comment and my reply!

Further evidence that I am old: I no longer have sex fantasies. Nowadays it’s all “making her dinner,” “rubbing her back while she falls asleep,” and “sitting on the couch together doing other stuff.”

Knowing exactly what you want is great.
Taking steps to get it is a lot of hard work.
It can be hard to keep putting in effort if success is not assured.
Doubly so if what you want cannot be earned or even asked for but merely invited.
But failure is unthinkable, so I must press on.
