@souldessin and because of that he basically refuses to go to any other religious institution even though.

I told him that if you go to enough of them eventually one of them will help you and feed you and even possibly get you a job because they'll go out of the way to help you and he just doesn't believe me.

Worst part is is even though I can give him money occasionally to help him out.

He's basically convinced himself that if he can't get out of the situation hes in right now that he's going to kill himself no matter what if there's not really anything I can do about it. He refuses to tell me his exact location and that he lives in that state and that's it meaning I couldn't even call police or social services to try and help him he's completely dead set on this by the end of the year.

And he's told me multiple times that he questions any faith in God because he says why would God ever let something horrible like this happened to him and I'm not religious so I don't know what to genuinely say back to him or anything. It's just depressing.

@sapphire this is the most ominous picture you could have ever taken of it

If you're going to be a massive fucking retard about something, be incredibly confident about it.

@Mr_NutterButter
Trades jobs are good paying and "low skill/entry level." A few lawn care clients can pay a good amount.

Also he should talk to the local churches. I won't lie, some are caught up in themselves and may not even try to help. But there will be at least one that will.

If he is close to any business district, window cleaning is cheap to start and you can get $10-40 per store front. A few a day and that's a days pay.

@souldessin he's gone to one or two churches and both of them have not helped him and he doesn't like religious institutions because his mother is using that to justify beating him.

But I'll definitely suggest to him those trade jobs to see if he might be able to get in there somehow because I know some trade jobs some person can be a multi-convicted felon and they'll still let them in.

NEED ADVICE.

My friend is planning on killing himself next year if he can't get out of his abusive mother's house but he apparently got blacklisted because his last employer lied about him doing misconduct because his boss really hated him and he can't find a job because of that.

He has virtually no money can't apply for food stamps or any government assistance because he lives with his mother and his mother takes all those benefits and gives nothing to him so he's solely relying on the generosity of people donating to him personally.

He only has a high school diploma and can do general manual labor doesn't have any specialty or skills. Any advice on how to help him

He lives in Arkansas 32 years old.

Piers Morgan, a boomer and alleged Catholic, mocking another younger Catholic man for following basic church doctrine and not having sex until marriage truly is an incredible microcosm of the problem with boomers, on multiple different levels

@kc-poast @Shadowman311 yep. I guess the United States could hold on to some global influence by asserting his domination over Latin America and still keeping its influence in the northern hemisphere. But most likely it will fuck it up.

But do to the United States geography and general infrastructure it can't be conventionally invaded.

Meaning the downfall of the United States truly will be from it's own people, truly a devastating realization.

The Chinese eventually taking Taiwan, followed by a muted, mostly diplomatic and economic response by the US will be the true beginning of the end of US monopolar dominance in the world. There's really nothing they can do militarily since a war is unpopular and would be too costly, but not doing that will kill the empire, they have no winning move.

@KiKi88 yes this is real the guy is posed like that but most likely he is clutching his stomach in pain from getting choked out from the gas and just so happened to die in that pose

My favorite thing to do on the Internet is to save images of cats with cigarettes in their mouth and images of dogs given guns by their humans.

I don't know what kind of spiritual energy this gives off but I definitely have it.

After all these years.

One of the few pieces of knowledge I still consider to be very enlightening is the phrase.

"As above, so below; so above"

Fun fact about my fictional world.

"Emanations" are dreams from dead gods; eternal slumbers.

Be careful. They may be dead but their presence is eternal.

I just thought of a fun meme idea.

Just post a random image then type the phrase.

"Just as the founding fathers intended"
