I mean it's pretty clear from the texts that he was resurrected and lives on forever. Most Christians seem to agree that he now hangs around like a ghost and helps you do stuff like play baseball or get a promotion. The thing that rubs me the wrong way about this story is: why isn't he helping every baseball player equally? Obviously some are winning and some aren't, and presumably that's because Jesus is helping some people more than others.

Everybody prays they will win the war, but Jesus is helping one side kill more people.

Those are self-help books from the year 100 AD. Are you asking how to write a text like that?

It sounds like you may be misunderstanding what meditation is. Meditation is to observe what is happening in your body and mind. There isn't really a "topic" other than what comes up in your mind. But you aren't supposed to linger on your thoughts, only notice their arrival and passing.

You can choose to focus your attention on specific things such as your breathing, sounds, the feeling of a location of your self, etc. Is that what you mean by topic?

I buy most of my music from Qobuz or Bandcamp. Perfectly DRM-free with lossless compression, and it's mine forever.

He means that he doesn't appreciate how things are going in the US in 2025.

The ST had the Spectre GCR so it could clearly do everything a Mac could and more, plus it was cheaper.

I think the point of these hopeless internet arguments mainly becomes to convince the third parties who read them.

I don't think I'm in the right climate for it. I need heavy boots to counter the cold and snow, and I can't be bothered to change shoes every time I get in and out of the car.

TIL that there are people who have special shoes when they drive a car
