We are into June, and still can't say with certainty, precisely where we are at.
Therefore, I'll propose, that the next conference call shall announce only that all responses have been finalized to the final deciding authority. I don't believe that CytoDyn will announce any response of the authority, since, none has been given, only that everything has been recently submitted to them, that is what I'm thinking. The webcast should also discuss the situation with Cyrus. Everybody sitting here reading this knows that what is happening isn't normal; that what is going on in the world and that which is going on here just ain't right. We can't just keep on being tone deaf to all of it, just ignoring it as it happens or pretending that it is all normalcy.
Therefore, I truly do appreciate all those who do post the studies on CCR5 and CCL5 and what the effects are of allowing and / or disallowing this chemical inter-cellular communication to and / or from happening. These studies go a long way into deciphering, unveiling and understanding the truth about this immunoregulatory communication cascade. I feel like these are akin to rays of light that shoot across the din of darkness where much is spoken, but little is said and even less heard. Most of the vast deluge of information is of minimal consequence, but the information discussing this cellular communication signal, really is of massive consequence.
For example, take this shooting star for instance: Barriers between Anti-CCR5 Therapy, Breast Cancer and Its Microenvironment and take note perrenialloser, these authors are not Chinese: by Elizabeth Brett , Dominik Duscher , Andrea Pagani , Adrien Daigeler , Jonas Kolbenschlag , Markus Hahn .
Many things are included in the article, but these are only a snippet:
"CCL5 is a potent chemokine with a physiological role of immune cell attraction and has gained particular attention in R&D for breast cancer treatment. Its receptor, CCR5, is a well-known co-factor for HIV entry through the cell membrane. Interestingly, biology research is unusually unified in describing CCL5 as a pro-oncogenic factor, especially in breast cancer. In silico, in vitro and in vivo studies blocking the CCL5/CCR5 axis show cancer cells become less invasive and less malignant, and the extracellular matrices produced are less oncogenic. At present, CCR5 blocking is a mainstay of HIV treatment, but despite its promising role in cancer treatment, CCR5 blocking in breast cancer remains unperformed.
As with all other forms of cancer, prognosis is strongly influenced by the clinical stage at which the cancer is diagnosed. The later the cancer is diagnosed, the more likely it is that the patient will not recover from the disease.
By acting as a classical chemotactic cytokine for T cells, eosinophils, basophils and other cells, CCL5 recruits leukocytes to the site of inflammation, induces proliferation of NK cells and is an HIV-suppressive factor released from CD8+ T cells. The receptor with the highest affinity for CCL5 is the CC motif chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5), being mainly expressed in T cells, smooth muscle endothelial cells, epithelial cells and parenchymal cells. The CCL5/CCR5 interaction facilitates inflammation, adhesion and migration of T cells in immune responses. CCR5 is involved in chronic diseases, cancers and COVID-19 infection.
There is a wealth of evidence showing that CCL5 is co-opted in breast cancer and in many other types of tumors, such as pancreatic, ovarian, prostate and glioma cancer. In vitro and in vivo tests show that blocking or knocking down CCL5/CCR5 is detrimental to tumors such breast cancer and limits metastases. The possibility of targeting the CCL5/CCR5 axis and inducing an antitumor environment is therefore real but challenging. However, a CCR5 blocker that can be part of cancer therapy has yet to be developed.
As introduced before, CCL5 is an extremely powerful chemoattractant with a physiologic role in recruiting immune cells in inflammatory or allergic circumstances CCL5 binds with high affinity to its main receptor CCR5, but also to CCR1, -3, -4, CD44 and GPR75. CCR5 is a seven-transmembrane G-protein-coupled receptor expressed on various cell types, such as T cells, macrophages, dendritic cells, eosinophils and microglia. The interaction between CCR5 and its high-affinity molecules (e.g., CCL5, CCL3, CCL4 and CCL8) results in G protein activation and a following boost of different signal transduction pathways. One of these is represented by NF-kB (Nuclear Factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer), in which CCL5 represents an important target gene.
As mentioned before, the CCL5/CCR5 interaction facilitates cancer progression through several different mechanisms. CCL5/CCR5 interaction increases tumor dimensions, induces ECM remodeling, increases cellular migration and metastasis formation, supports cellular stemness and expansion along the tumor borders, confers on cancer cell resistance to therapies, decreases DNA damage, deregulates cellular energetics (metabolic reprogramming), promotes angiogenesis, recruits immune and stromal cells and induces the immunosuppressive polarization of macrophages.
There is an unmatched level of evidence supporting the participation of all chemokines other than CCL5 in the construction, development and operation of the primary invasive breast tumor. CCL5 is also ubiquitous across breast cancer cases, being present at stages I, II and III, and over 95% of triple-negative breast tumors are CCR5+.
Belonging to a different pharmacological family, Leronlimab is a humanized igG4k monoclonal antibody also able to bind CCR5. Adams et al. recently reported some clinical trials testing Leronlimab in metastatic TNBC patients. The phase 1b/2 dose escalation (NCT03838367), Compassionate Use (NCT04313075) and the Basket Study (NCT04504942) were pooled in order to evaluate the drug’s safety and efficacy at 12 months. After the analysis of 28 metastatic TNBC patients, the authors showed that Leronlimab has significant antitumor activity. The clinical trials suggest that metastatic TNBC patients dosed with Leronlimab have a real clinical benefit with improved 1-year progression-free and overall survival and few treatment-emergent adverse events. Finally, after exploring the effect of Leronlimab on circulating tumor-associated cells (TACs) from peripheral blood, the authors revealed that Leronlimab resulted in a drop in circulating TACs in the majority of patients correlating with early therapy response.
Within the tumor, cancer cells secrete CCL5 and sustain the proliferation of CCR5-positive cells, recruit T-regulatory cells and monocytes, cause osteoclast activation and bone metastasis, neo-angiogenesis and cancer cells dissemination. CCR5 is therefore overexpressed in breast, head, neck, gastric, esophageal, pancreatic and prostate cancer, colorectal carcinoma, melanoma, Hodgkin’s lymphoma, acute lymphocytic leukemia and other tumors. In the clinical setting, higher cytoplasmic CCR5 staining and CCR5 receptor levels correlate with poor prognosis in breast cancer and gastric adenocarcinoma patients. Even elevated levels of its main ligand CCL5 indicate poor prognosis in breast, cervical, prostate, ovarian, gastric and pancreatic cancer and metastatic colorectal carcinoma."
---
But here is the bit of light only we who have those polarized sun glasses can appreciate. On 12/7/22, Cyrus puts forth CytoDyn's Plans to get Leronlimab to market. Essentially, it is the Investor Deck, filed with the SEC and it lays out his game plan for bringing Leronlimab to the people. One of the main problems with this prognostic plan is that share holders can not see it unfolding. The reason for this is that the #1 Priority of this plan is to get the clinical hold on Leronlimab Lifted. This process is shielded from shareholder sight. The other problem is that many of the remaining goals of the Investor Deck are dependent on meeting the 1st goal, the #1 priority. Therefore, they too are shielded from shareholder's view. Therefore, shareholder's can's see the plan unfolding.
This is what Cyrus said, " "9:25: We expect next year, 2023 to be catalyst driven in terms of growth and development for the company and we think that the table is set for a large number of significant developments to occur in early '23, including the submission of our complete response to the partial clinical hold for HIV, new additions to the leadership team, a corporate rebranding, and then following those events, we plan on initiating a NASH trial as well as continuing the advancement of the long acting CCR5 molecule."
However, along the way, Cyrus has thrown us a bone or two and has given us some peeks as to what is happening and proof that things are in fact unfolding as he said they would. We have learned the name of the re-branding, LivImmune. There has recently been new additions to the leadership team, Melissa Palmer, MD as new CMO and Salah Kivlighn, PhD, Clinical & Strategic Advisor. By bringing on Melissa Palmer, MD Hepatologist, it can not be said any clearer that NASH is in the near future and CytoDyn's number one clinical indication. Cyrus has been saying that NASH would be monotherapy and wouldn't be combination therapy. We know that CytoDyn can not do it alone, it is too small. We can take a little deeper look and see that Dr. Palmer has a history with TAKeda pharmaceuticals. "Dr. Palmer left Kadmon in 2015 to become Global Lead on Shire's NASH program, as well as other liver-related issues within the company, such as orphan cholestatic liver diseases PFIC Alagilles, PSC and PBC, and liver-related safety issues (DILI), and was rapidly promoted to Global Development Lead - Hepatology and led the formation of the liver safety group. Shire was acquired by Takeda in 2019 at which time Dr. Palmer was recruited as Head of Liver Disease Development at Takeda." TAK has TAK-647 which is: " Ontamalimab is a fully human immunoglobulin G2 monoclonal antibody against mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule-1 which failed phase 3 clinical trials for ulcerative colitis (UC) and Chrons Disease, but now is in Phase 1 clinical trials for NASH."
Prior to these we had: "12:56: We have also firmly established Dr. Scott Hansen as our Head of Research and Basic Science. Dr. Hansen is currently an Associate Professor at OHSU. and within this newly formalized role, Dr. Hansen will support our clinical development activities, related to biomarker and assay development for future clinical trials, as well as supporting and leading some of our earlier staged efforts, geared towards the development of longer acting molecules targeted to CCR5."
We learned that CytoDyn "13:33: has also recently entered into a joint development agreement with a 3rd party Research and Development Bio-Tech company to develop long acting or more longer acting molecule CCR5 blocking.
It goes without saying that CytoDyn needs help. CytoDyn has 4 different plays, and each play is devoid of a sufficient data pool which would draw in funding for that indication. Cyrus' long term goal expressed in the Investor Deck is to build out a strong enough clinical trial data pool to present it to a partner or a buyer. So then, without any cash of our own, Cyrus' plan is to have someone else's funding, partner with CytoDyn and build for us that data pool and in the end, have exactly those same partners compete for the entirety of the resultant conglomerate, for the whole or for a part once that data pool is firmly in hand.
The same story goes for HIV-Prep and HIV-Cure which is likely being run by the 3rd party Research and Development Bio-Tech company Vir, in collaboration to develop the long acting or a more longer acting molecule of CCR5 blockade. Vir is pretty much a given with Scott Hansen's strong connections there, but I remain skeptical due to the mechanism of action of VIR 1388 working to phagocytose HIV itself by initiating T Cells to target HIV epitopes while LL blocks CCR5. This was kept secret, but somewhat hinted at by Cyrus in the 4/11/23 Webcast .
We can apply the same logic in the Oncology study being run by MD Anderson using Merck's Keytruda in combination with Leronlimab. We had all been waiting to find out what had happened with the results of the MD Anderson study, and Cyrus threw us this line: "Leronlimab is currently being trialed in combination with Keytruda (pembrolizumab) in a breast cancer xenograft model in partnership with MD Anderson Cancer Center." From here, he gave us a hint of what is to come.
It can be assumed that as these collaborations are officially announced, that is, after the hold is lifted, that there shall be share price inflection. In his astute fashion, Cyrus has given us the secrets, has only threw us some bones, but, because of the strange times we live in, and because CytoDyn has not yet met Priority #1, the share price has not yet moved.
The only thing the market "sees" is the fact that the hold hasn't yet been lifted. They are "Blinded by the Light". The shooting stars grace the night sky, but nobody sees them, because everyone is blinded by the fact that the hold hasn't yet been lifted. Clothed by the blinding light, made tone deaf by the din of bewildering and unnecessary information. They say nothing else matters unless the hold is lifted and that is what share price is saying. Nothing else matters. Nobody even reads articles on CCR5/CCL5, they are meaningless without Priority #1 being met. That is what the market says. But what does the Fox say?
That's the point though, to use this as a blinding distraction and it is working. How else do the other Priorities get put into place, if there wasn't something put in place to distract from the construction? Of course, a clinical hold provides all the blinders necessary to construct partnerships within, without disclosure of their assembly. We can be assured, that everything Cyrus put together in that Investor Deck is happening. Maybe, not exactly as he said it would. Surely, he did not count on his getting sick, but, these things happen and he will recover and get right back on it, assuredly. Cyrus gave us that plan, so we can know what is happening despite the blinding light, despite the din of confusion that would be taking place in the proximal future ahead of that Investor Deck presentation which is taking place right now. He knew, that had he not provided those prognostic words, shareholders today would be blinded, but he gave us the plan, so we could see. The Investor Deck was free of charge, yet it was prognostic. It would have been impossible to see what is happening today, had it not been for that R & D Update then. We therefore can see the events unroll as they happen which lead to the goals he has set forth there in, as we have been witnessing them happening. That Deck was crucial for our understanding. Many of us have been pointing to that Deck, but no one more so than u/Upwithstock .
When the hold lifts, the blinders will be removed and all eyes shall be opened. Until then, only ours who have heard and understand that Investor Deck know what is happening now. All others remain blind to all of which is happening. They think it is all doom and gloom, but we know, that the Investor Plan is going forward. It is not a co-incidence that Cyrus told us all these things before this long period of waiting began. Long stents of time providing hardly any information. But when information did come, it was telling of the plan unfolding. Cyrus was saying, "Don't worry, the plan is going forward." So, he got sick, but there was a backup plan and likely, this was announced in a way he wasn't planning, but it was Plan B and he had our backs regardless and there wasn't even a set back. Cyrus will be back soon, assuredly. So, we wait for him.
How much hotter will it get? Hopefully, we get a webcast soon and I think it will be indicating that all has been recently submitted. I also hope that they will announce when Cyrus returns back to his seat. My eyes are glued to every detail that happens and how it correlates with the Investor Deck. It was given to us as shareholders, so lets stay focused on it and not be blinded. The sun is bright almost every day, but we are wearing special, polarized sun glasses. We will see that Deck unfold. Just hang on to your seats, because when it begins, it will happen quickly as it has been in the planning, design and soon to be rollout stages all the while. The triggering event approaches, and we know to look for it, so be ready.

Imagine that from three years old you were sexually molested by several family members, uncles, cousins, and your stepfather. Then, you are forced to leave your mother and live with your father, that you never had a relationship with, and he starts to beat you. You know no one, you have no friends, you don't speak English, and you feel broken and alone. Who do you trust? What becomes your perception of love? What would you do? Ill tell you what you'll do... you'll run, and you'll run right into the arms of an abuser, that initially treats you like a queen. That promises you a better life, that promises to love you, to take care of you and not let anyone hurt you. And you believe it. Because this man, even though you are 12 years old and he is in his late 30's, has treated you better than anyone in your life. So, you do whatever he says, and what he says is that at 12 you will start to work in the strip clubs, you will strip, and you will have sex with several adult men every night for months. You will be drugged, forced to drink, and forced to engage in sexual acts you didn't even know existed. But still, you believe he loves you; you will believe this 30 some year­ old man is your boyfriend and your protector, and you will do whatever he says. Imagine that was you, or your daughter, your niece, your son, your friend, your co-worker. How do we expect them to lead a healthy productive life after this? This story is real and is one of the many I have heard during my years of working with juvenile victims of human trafficking. Far too often when we look at a juvenile similar to the one, I just described, prior to the law enforcement identifying her as a victim, this child was a "just." She was "just into older guys" "Just too promiscuous" "just a child that didn't listen to her parents" that "just didn't follow rules" and "just a drug addict." She was just none of those things, in fact she was an abused child that made the perfect victim. Traffickers prey on children just like this one, they seek out the vulnerable, the ones that have been abused prior, who may not speak English well, who may have mental illnesses or other delays, and who they know they can gain control over. Now imagine that this 12-year-old, never gets help, she never receives treatment and is never identified as what she truly is, a victim. This world becomes all she knows, this is how she survives, this is how she makes her money, how she has shelter over her head some nights, how some nights she is able to eat, and take a shower. And she then eventually moves on, and a new trafficker picks her up, this one is more abusive, this one threatens her with a gun, and makes sure she knows this is not a choice. She spends her 21st birthday at the Mote 6 as he controls her with the drugs, he forces her to do, he shoots her up with heroine and forces her into withdrawals when she doesn't make her quota. He has the control, maybe she forgets for a second, so he brands her with his name across her neck to remind her of who she belongs to, this world, and him. And she believes this, she believes this is her life, all she will ever have, and she has no way out. These women and men and children, build their survival tool kit, their skills that keep them alive. They use drugs to numb the pain, just like we use Tylenol to numb ours, they steal so they can eat, they lie so they don't go to jail, and they manipulate, just like they have been manipulated, but these skills, these skills keep them alive.
So I'll ask again, how do we expect them to live a normal life? When we see a woman in sexualized clothing on the street, or a drug addict on the side of the road, or someone begging for money, what are our first thoughts? They should get a job, it's not your fault they are drug addicts, this is their fault...
But really, who's fault, is it? The three-year-old that was raped as a child, beaten by her father, and trafficked by an adult? These victims have been cut off from all resources to get the help they desperately need. Currently I have 17 children victims from the state of VA, that all have similar stories, and there are so many unidentified victims out there that need our help. And that is often the most difficult part. They don't know they need our help because they don't know they are victims. They believe they are in love, this is their boyfriend, their husband, and they are trained to remain loyal and distrust us. When law enforcement and victim advocates make attempts, we are not always successful, there is such a high recidivism rate, because of the level of trauma. When we are able to reach a victim, the road ahead is long and hard. I didn't even know I needed Safe Harbor, or that Safe Harbor needed me until January of this year. Cathy came to me and asked me to work for Safe Harbor and my exact words were "I don't do adults; I only work with children." At that time, I was looking for a new position but didn't want to abandon the juvenile victims I had been working with for the last two years. Cathy told me that I could continue my services at Safe.H_arbor with all of my girls. That day was the start of my new journey, my new journey with adults, and Safe Harbor's new journey with juvenile victims. Safe Harbor provides so many needed services to these victims on their journey to survivors. These victims need to learn how to reenter society, how to gain job skills, and employment, learn to socialize, they need to continue their education, they need basic medical treatment they were never allowed to have, routine dental check-ups. They need our counseling department that teaches them coping skills, that help them learn how to identify abuse. They need our court advocacy program that supports them in scary situations, so they do not feel alone. They need our volunteers who give their time, and areas of expertise, they need every staff member that contributes to their survival, and they desperately need you. Your support helps them to celebrate their successes, have food to feed their families, toiletries, and culturally appropriate hygiene products, participate in social activities in the community, get a new outfit for a job interview, become a healthy mother, learn new skills, and put them on a path to transform their lives and allow them to be proud of the women they become. Your support ensure that Safe Harbor remains available for all who seek our help.
The sell of our women, men and children is the number 2 money making crime in world. It has surpassed the sell of illegal weapons, and only the sell of illegal drugs brings in more money. These criminals are making money off our wives, our nieces/nephews, our daughters and sons, our future...... I will never claim to be a hero, nor do I feel like one, but I do hope that I play some role in as many victims lives as I can, so that they become survivors, and today I hope you pay a role as well and support.

Hello, i'm playing with barb but honestly i'm not liking it very much. The only build i really like is the HOTA one but it is not really good. Since i completed act 2 and got a good amount of the Altars of Lilith i'm thinking of "enduring" until i get all of the Altars and finish the campaign and then re-play with another class. Since i know already i maintain all the Altars of Lilith stats (created a character just for the sake of knowing this), without spoiler what i want to know is if i get the chance to have the mount with the alt if i completed the campaign and got the mount with "original" barb.

We have a lot of other marital issues. Things have been said and done that I don't think I can ever get over. But this comment in particular really sent me over the edge.
Before we were married we both agreed we were on the fence about kids. As I've gotten older I haven't felt a strong desire to have any of my own. I love my friends kids. I enjoy kids but I just don't think I want my own. Somehow it came up and my husband was mad that I hadn't changed my mind apparently.
He said to me "If you don't have kids you have no life purpose. Women's purpose is to have children."
Um what? Mind you he acts like he's for women, he's progressive, liberal etc whatever you want to say. Then he turns around and says this to me?
I told him that 1) that statement is simply not true and 2) he had no business saying that. I left the room furious and then cried. He apologized the next day saying he was sorry but I can't shake the feeling that this was the final straw.
Has anyone been told this before by a partner? I'm ready to file divorce and feeling like this might have been the final straw.

We have a 21 month old and a baby due in October. He owns his own business and works very, very hard. There is a lot of stress from work, and I know he is always tired, but he always tries his best to be a present husband and father.
He loves our son and helps with him every night after work and always spends time doing fun activities with us on the weekends. He usually gets a two hour nap in on the weekend days, and a couple hours to rest after son’s bedtime, but otherwise we are both active with our son pretty much all the time (he is very high energy and adventurous). I try to offer him time to himself here and there, he has a helicopter ride with friends in a few weeks, and I encouraged him to go see his favorite football team play out of state in early September which I know he is looking forward to. I still think he craves down time which is understandable, but hard to come by.
I worked part time this year as a teacher (previously full time). Next year we decided I will stay home as childcare for two little ones will not be possible for our families, or financially sustainable via daycare. I do all the cooking, we have someone clean once a week, but I do laundry and keep things very tidy in between (he helps with dishes, and laundry sometimes). I try to take on the bulk of my son’s needs for attention, stimulation, and comfort, but I do need a second to rest, too and so when my husband is home I try to share the responsibility with him without totally overwhelming him. I can honestly say he is a wonderful man and I tell him that often and I love him with all my heart, and he knows that and I try to do everything I can to ease his burden at home.
A while after I made breakfast this morning, I suggested we go to a local farmers market which he agreed to happily. Then he went to get ready. When he was done, he asked if I was ready, and I said I just needed him to watch the baby so I could brush my teeth (my son will climb the toilet, turn on the sink etc. or scream and cry and bang on the door if I close it). This part is a bit hard to remember exactly, but I’m trying to be as unbiased as possible to get your advice. He told me to “just close the door”. I was annoyed (we have had this disagreement before) and said “I just wanted to get ready once a week without the baby crying at the doomy feet.” He raised his voice and said “close the fucking door, who cares if he cries.” I said something like “I care if he cries, I’m his parent, why are you acting like an asshole? You don’t have to go to the farmers market you can stay here. I don’t want to go anywhere with you when you’re acting like this.” I closed the door since he wasn’t picking up the baby, not sure what I should really do, I heard him yell “fuck you” through the door. I brushed my teeth, and when I opened the door 2 minutes later he was gone, he left with the baby for three hours.
I texted him and called him asking him to bring the baby back at first, telling him I would take the baby so he could rest/cool off on his own, that I was very stressed and I was sorry and wanted to talk etc. He refused to answer calls and texted me back I should enjoy my peace and they would be home later, I told him I could not relax knowing he was angry and I wanted to be with our son and him, too if we could communicate. He said that was my choice. Then he turned his phone off without saying when he would be home.
I want to preface this part by saying, my husband and I are usually really good communicators believe it or not. This type of exchange is not in our usual character. However, I don’t like when people raise their voice and curse at me, and I won’t take it lying down anymore (I did for most of my life with others) and my husband knows this. He has never done anything like this. I didn’t know what to do, I never have and never would withhold my son from him and refuse communication. I can’t begin to describe how upset I was that my son left after I closed the door on him crying, and then I didn’t know where he was or when he would be home. I have never been powerless to reach him like that before. My husband came home and said he needed to nap, he would not talk. I told him we needed to talk and I would never do what he had done, but I left him alone to sleep (he is someone who needs his rest, and needs time to cool off before talking).
I just don’t know where to go from here. I’m hoping he will wake up and apologize and explain his behavior and I can apologize and try to find a solution to address his angestress/tiredness that led to this. I doubt that will happen though, I think he’s angry, and I’m angry too, but I want to have a conversation that will lead to resolution. I never want this to happen again and I want to help him. Please advise me. I’m at a loss.

So, my leo has been acting strange lately.
She's 3 months old, we've had her for 2 weeks, she's 12 grams 5 inches long, and her name is Lennie.
Recently she started having FOUL smelling diarreah, she sleeps all the time too. I mean, shes okay with playing at night, definitely eats and drinks fine. She has the right lighting, I clean her cage everywhere and have great husbandry.
She eats mealworms and crickets with the repashy multi vitamin every other day. (Repashy scales for every day but I also rarely use a calcium with d3 so yea) I don't know what's going on . She is a mack snow and she may not be 12 grams I think she's more but my scale is 15 years old lmao Help. What's going on? Temps usually stay between 75-97 (hot and cold) and drop to around 65 and 75 at night. Humidity stays around 45 and go's up at night. When I take her out of her cage, she runs around (same with inside of it) she has at 30 gal cage for now.

Romans 2
23You who glory in the law, do you dishonor God by disobeying the law? 24For “the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles because of you,” just as it is written.
25For circumcision indeed profits, if you are a doer of the law, but if you are a transgressor of the law, your circumcision has become uncircumcision. 26If therefore the uncircumcised keep the ordinances of the law, won’t his uncircumcision be accounted as circumcision? 27Won’t those who are physically uncircumcised, but fulfill the law, judge you, who with the letter and circumcision are a transgressor of the law? 28For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, neither is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh; 29but he is a Jew who is one inwardly, and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, not in the letter; whose praise is not from men, but from God.
Romans 3:31 Do we then overthrow the law by this faith? By no means! On the contrary, we uphold the law.
Acts 7:51 You stiff-necked people with uncircumcised hearts and ears! You always resist the Holy Spirit, just as your fathers did.
Romans 2:28 A man is not a Jew because he is one outwardly, nor is circumcision only outward and physical.
Leviticus 26:41 and I acted with hostility toward them and brought them into the land of their enemies--and if their uncircumcised hearts will be humbled and they will make amends for their iniquity,
1 Samuel 14:6 Jonathan said to the young man bearing his armor, "Come, let us cross over to the outpost of these uncircumcised men. Perhaps the LORD will work on our behalf. Nothing can hinder the LORD from saving, whether by many or by few."
1 Samuel 17:26 David asked the men who were standing with him, "What will be done for the man who kills this Philistine and removes this disgrace from Israel? Just who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?"
Jeremiah 4:4 Circumcise yourselves to the LORD, and remove the foreskins of your hearts, O men of Judah and people of Jerusalem. Otherwise, My wrath will break out like fire and burn with no one to extinguish it, because of your evil deeds."
Jeremiah 6:10 To whom can I give this warning? Who will listen to me? Look, their ears are closed, so they cannot hear. See, the word of the LORD has become offensive to them; they find no pleasure in it.
Jeremiah 9
, 24but let him who boasts boast in this, that he understands and knows me, that I am the LORD who practices steadfast love, justice, and righteousness in the earth. For in these things I delight, declares the LORD.”
25“Behold, the days are coming, declares the LORD, when I will punish all those who are circumcised merely in the flesh— 26Egypt, Judah, Edom, the sons of Ammon, Moab, and all who dwell in the desert who cut the corners of their hair, for all these nations are uncircumcised, and all the house of Israel are uncircumcised in heart.”
1 Corinthians 15:34 Wake up from your drunken stupor, as is right, and do not go on sinning. For some have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame.
Leviticus 11:44 For I am the LORD your God; consecrate yourselves, therefore, and be holy, because I am holy. You must not defile yourselves by any creature that crawls along the ground.
Leviticus 11:45 For I am the LORD, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt so that I would be your God; therefore be holy, because I am holy.
Leviticus 19:2 "Speak to the whole congregation of Israel and tell them: Be holy because I, the LORD your God, am holy.
Leviticus 20:7 Consecrate yourselves, therefore, and be holy, because I am the LORD your God.
Isaiah 35:8 And there will be a highway called the Way of Holiness. The unclean will not travel it--only those who walk in the Way--and fools will not stray onto it.
1 Peter 1
13Therefore, preparing your minds for action, and being sober-minded, set your hope fully on the grace that will be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ. 14As obedient children, do not be conformed to the passions of your former ignorance, 15but as he who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, 16since it is written, “You shall be holy, for I am holy.” 17And if you call on him as Father who judges impartially according to each one’s deeds, conduct yourselves with fear throughout the time of your exile, 18knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, 19but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot. 20He was foreknown before the foundation of the world but was made manifest in the last times for the sake of you 21who through him are believers in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope are in God.
22Having purified your souls by your obedience to the truth for a sincere brotherly love, love one another earnestly from a pure heart, 23since you have been born again, not of perishable seed but of imperishable, through the living and abiding word of God; 24for
“All flesh is like grass and all its glory like the flower of grass. The grass withers, and the flower falls, 25but the word of the Lord remains forever.”
And this word is the good news that was preached to you.
if it is so clearly expressed that man cannot live by bread alone by out of every word of Gods mouth, and we know Christ is the bread, yet I seldom meet those circumcised of heart having purified your souls by obedience the the truth for a sincere brotherly love...
does anyone think I do not love you according to the living abiding word, do you think by the word I am condemning you? For if my words condemn you it is only by an unclean conscious, and are you so Bold to Condemn me for what you do not understand, that what you understand might be seen as right...
Gods will be Done and I shall speak when told what to say if your raise your tongue against me in Judgement...
would you bring this offense to you into Court of the King who sits on a thrown of Judgement, who scatters all evil with his eye?
would you bring your neighbor into the court of God, hastily without understanding of your neighbors case against you, and be shamed by your neighbor in heavenly Judgement?
Proverbs 25:8 do not bring hastily to court. Otherwise, what will you do in the end when your neighbor puts you to shame?
I only desire an honest discussion about this doctrine and those who are able to answer with righteous Judgement, otherwise I'm not interested...
Luke 12:11 And when they bring you before the synagogues and the rulers and the authorities, do not be anxious about how you should defend yourself or what you should say, 12for the Holy Spirit will teach you in that very hour what you ought to say.”
so unless the holy spirit has given you the answer don't bother to answer lest your darkness be exposed by the light of Christ working through me, by the truth spoken to me of the holy spirit about what I am to say
which is why people hate me without Cause, I'm so use to offspring of serpents being in our members, that I am post discouraging them, and expressing the Fullness of the working power in me, to charm or Crush a serpent...civil discussions only, if you're here to spit venom and seek oppression of Gods word to justify yourself instead of glorifying him through speaking the name of Christ Jesus giving thanks through him, then begone.
I'm only seeking legitimate answers as to why people don't agree with these doctrines of Gods own words.

I had this idea of game mechanism: you play with a virtual player, and force their play by giving them cards you want them to play. I got Exploding Kitties deck and started to play with with this idea. I came up with some rules for a quite simple single player game. I played dozens of time to balance the rules and now I want to share it with you.

Game overview:

In this game you play with an imaginary friend. They are not very smart: they pay attention only to the newest card they got. Luckily you know their cards so you might sometimes force them to do smart things by giving them cards they need. You will win if there are no more cards in the draw deck at the beginning of the turn. You will lose if you finish your turn with 5 or more cards on your hand, or if you die in the kitten explosion. But don't worry about an imaginary friend: if they died in the kitten explosion, you can always imagine another one.

Setup

1. Separate all four Exploding Kitties and one Nope card from the rest of the deck and create external deck from those cards. Order doesn't matter: at some point you may need to shuffle them to the draw deck.
2. Shuffle the rest of the cards and create a draw deck. All cards excluding the top one should be faced down. The top card should be faced up. In this game the top card of the draw deck will always be faced up: every time you get the card from the deck, flip the top card face up.
3. Make place for Discard pile.
4. Make place for imaginary friend hand. The imaginary friend can have as many cards in the hand as they want. You will keep them all faced up and in order.
5. Make place for your hand. You can keep your cards in your hand of course, but since this is a single player game, you can also keep them on the table. You can have as many cards as you want, but at the end of your turn, you should have less than 5 cards, or you lose the game.

Rules:

1. You and imaginary friend play your turns one by one. The imaginary friend starts.
2. At the beginning the imaginary friend has an empty hand, but it will change very quickly. Keep the hand of the imaginary friend faced up. Spread them in a way that you see all the cards and keep them in the order: always put new cards on the right of the spread.
3. The imaginary friend turn:
   1. They play the rightmost card (the newest) from their hand if possible (at the first turn they cannot play any card, because they have an empty hand, but even if their hand is not empty the rightmost card might be not playable for different reasons).
   2. They repeat playing the rightmost card as long as possible.
   3. If they cannot play the rightmost card (even if they might play some other card in their hand) they pass: they take the top card from the draw deck and the turn ends.
4. It's your turn. You can do any number of those actions in any order, until you pass:
   1. You can play a card from your hand and resolve the effect
   2. You can draw: take the top most card from the draw deck
   3. Finally, you can pass: take the top most card from the draw deck and the turn ends. If you have 5 or more cards in your hand: you lose! Don't cheat: you need to make the decision if you draw or pass before you see the next card!
5. It's imaginary friend's turn again. Repeat until you win or lose. You win, if the draw deck is empty at the beginning of any turn (your or imaginary friend's).

​

Some cards act differently than in original game:

Favor:
If imaginary friend plays this card, YOU choose the card they will get: put any of your cards on the right of their hand: they will play it now if it's possible!
This card cannot be played if the opponent has no cards in their hand.
Pairs of cats:
The player can play pair of the same cats to get the card from the opponent. The imaginary friend plays the pair of cats if one of those cards is the rightmost card, and the other is anywhere in their hand (you choose if they even have more of those cards). Do not randomize card you or imaginary friend get: YOU decide instead.
Pair of cats cannot be played if the opponent has no cards in their hand.
Nope:
The imaginary friend will play Nope if this is the rightmost card in their hand when you played any card, to cancel the effect of this card. Of course you can play this card to cancel the effect of cards played by imaginary friend. Keep in mind, that Defuse is not played so they (or you) cannot Nope the Defuse.
Shuffle:
Combine external deck and the draw deck and shuffle them. Yes: all Exploding kittens go back to the game!
See the future:
Reveal the top 3 cards of the draw deck (you will learn about two cards, because the top card is always faced up anyway). Do it even if the imaginary friend played this card.
Exploding kitties and Defuse:
On your turn, if the top card on the draw deck is Exploding kitten, you cannot draw. After you pass, exile Defuse from your hand or lose the game. After defusing put the Exploding kitten back into the external deck.
If the Exploding kitten is on the top of draw deck when imaginary friend pass, check if the Defuse is the rightmost card in their hand. If yes: exile the Defuse and put the Exploding kitten back into the external deck. Otherwise, the imaginary friend exploded (even if they have Defuse but it's not the rightmost card)!
If imaginary friend exploded exile all cards from their hand (put them on the discard pile) and put the Exploding kitten into the external deck. Create new imaginary friend with no cards in their hand. They start the next turn.
Remember: Exploding kitten always go back to the external deck and never to the discard pile. They might go back to the game when next Shuffle is played.
Attack and Skip works as in the original game and always can be played. Don't draw a card after playing those cards.
​

Strategy tips (don't read if you want to discover it by yourself):

Try to keep control of what the imaginary friend will do. It's easy to get rid of some cards from your hand, but some cards can be really difficult to play. If you can, force the imaginary friend to take those cards. See the future is very powerful because it's easy to play and it lets you plan a few turns ahead.
Usually you know in advance if the imaginary friend will take a card from you. Sometimes it's good to draw a bad card only to let them take it.
Count shuffles. It's good to count other cards as well, but shuffles are the most important.
The right moment to play shuffle might be the most important decision. It's possible to never shuffle external deck into draw deck. This is nice strategy, because you don't need to care about the Defuse cards but it's the risky one! If not succeeded and the last shuffle is played at the very end of the game, all unused Defuse might explode in the imaginary friend's hand!
It might seem like a good idea to explode the imaginary friend but keep in mind that it's sometimes difficult to get rid of your cards if the imaginary friend has an empty hand.
From time to time you lose because of bad luck. It happens.

10 years ago, I (M) had my first relationship with B (F) at age 20, in which I had my first experiences and lasted about 2 years. I was immature, seeking to provide the best for my ex despite myself. After a year into the relationship, personal questions about her own sexuality began to emerge intensely, culminating in the proposal of an open relationship and 2 betrayals at the same party. We continued together and it didn't went well until we broke up.
After the breakup, I blocked her from almost everything. There were some contacts and encounters from her (about 5), they were good and light, but the perception of the relationship was different.
I am currently 5 years into a good, healthy relationship with C (F). While I was getting to know C (before dating), B got in touch wanting to meet me. I ended up giving closure with C to see what was going on with B. It was good, light and friendly, but the closed vs open issue remained. I closed with B and asked her never to contact me again.
Well, I had kept in touch with C as a friend. After closing with B, there was an atmosphere at some point with C and we are together until today.
Current situation: D (M), a childhood friend, invited me to be bestman at his wedding, with B as bridesmaid with me in a small and intimate event. Here the pair of bestman and bridesmaid walks in together. Justification: the couple was formed because of my relationship with B. Besides, G (bride) is B's childhood friend.
I was very happy with the invitation, but the situation bothered me a lot. I had some discussions with C about her many insecurities because of what I had experienced in the past with B. I reflected a lot about it and rejected the best man invitation because I wanted to avoid proximity and feelings towards B that could take the focus off the situation that should be totally on D and G + the fragility of C in relation to the whole . D and G were very upset with my decision.
Months later D came to me to better understand my decision because of his difficulty in conceiving it. D acted in a different way, thinking it's normal to maintain proximity and friendship with ex's. D approached issues such as invitations to their homes (D and G), in which they want freedom to invite anyone to interact, including me and B, despite the fact that a situation like this had never occurred in this entire period of coexistence. Time passed, they did not invite me to their wedding and D and G got married.
Questions: Was I wrong to reject the best man invitation? Is it wrong for me to feel sad and disappointed at not being invited to the wedding? At the same time that I feel disappointed, feelings of estrangement from D and G arise, but I don't think that justifies it because of all the relationship built over all these years. How can the friendship be maintained after this situation? What do you think about this situation of invitations to get-togethers at their house that may involve B and me in small groups (5-6 people)?

I (18F) have been “dating” my bf(18M) for about 1 month now and I am completely confused.
At the beginning of my final year in high school I had a crush on 2 guys. Worst of all, they were best friends. I had no intention of pursuing either of them as I wasn’t looking for a relationship. However as some time passed my feelings grew more and more. One guy, Taylor, I had a huge crush on, but he has never been in a relationship before and has never had a proper crush on a girl before. Taylor and I always clicked; we loved talking about anything and everything and would play games like backgammon together. I always had a hint of him liking me back but completely dismissed it considering his “picky” nature when it came to the girls he liked. I forced myself to move past him and ignore my feelings.
The other guy, Alex, I had helped get over a heartbreak with his ex over the summer and we got closer. We never talked about much other than relationships. We both wanted a significant other and at some point it seemed kind of inevitable that something would happen. He was definitely flirting with me and his friends would hint at it too. I really liked him but we didn’t have much in common. One night we kissed, and afterwards he suddenly asked me if he could call me his girlfriend. I hadn’t even expected it and I felt pressured in the moment so I stupidly said yes.
The relationship moved fast. 2 weeks into dating and he introduced me formally as his girlfriend to his ENTIRE family. I’m talking parents, grandparents, aunts, childhood best friends and the pressure to stay kept piling on and on.
He kept asking if I had told my parents and I hadn’t as it was too soon, but it bothered him and I buckled and introduced him to my parents as well. Within a months time not only had I met his entire family, but he had met mine and everyone at school kept saying we were destined to get married.
I wasn’t happy. I felt pressured to stay and so I did, and I tried to make the relationship work. we had absolutely nothing in common. We had nothing to talk about and all we ever did was couples stuff such as holding hands, cuddling and having sex. It was during this time that my feelings for his best friend, Taylor, began growing deeper. The guilt accompanied by this was agonising and i felt like the biggest asshole.
Eventually, 6 months in, I couldn’t take it and ended the relationship. He didn’t take it well and I helped him though the breakup, consoling him, staying up late into the night calling him if he wasn’t feeling well. soon his friends told me I need to put distance as without it he would never move on. So I did exactly that.
I had this huge relief and felt like a pressure had been taken off my back. But my feelings for his best friend, Taylor, had grown so much over the past months that I was practically drowning in them. I had never felt this way about someone before and was the most lovesick I had ever been in my life. I neglected the feelings as I couldn’t do that to Alex.
One day however, I was studying for an exam with Taylor and he told me he had liked me and asked if I felt the same way. I told him I did.
We then talked for hours about this and came to the realisation that we had both liked each other at the beginning of the year and both of us dismissed our feelings but they only grew over the months. We talked and it felt like a relief to have my feelings out there. We didn’t pursue anything as we it was too late considering the situation with Alex and the fact that we were leaving for uni soon.
A week later Taylor told me he couldn’t take it anymore. It was obvious we liked each other and he said he couldn’t lie to Alex’s face anymore as Alex had been asking Taylor if he liked me. He asked if it was ok for him to tell Alex and as I didn’t want Alex to know, I told him it was ok with me.
When Alex found out he felt betrayed and was calling me a whore and I didn’t know how to respond. Alex and Taylor had fallen out and The guilt was killing me. Alex left school a week earlier and a whole drama escalated as Alex talked with other people at school. I was labelled a whore and the rumours about me were insane.
I never felt so shit in my life in the week that followed. But Taylor was there for me through it all. We both got really close and would stay up late into the night, talking about anything and everything. Some days, he would even wake up early in the morning and be at my house at 4am. We would sit outside, cuddling and talking until 7:00 when we had to leave for school. He would say I looked like summer and he even kept a Polaroid picture of us in his wallet. I told him I wasn’t ready to rush into anything and he said he was more than ready to respect my space. We weren’t officially together but we were essentially a thing.
A week later that he said had been in love with me for the most part of the year. He said he could wait for me as long as I needed, and that he wanted to give us a shot.
we had a one month holiday from school where we couldn’t see each other. In the beginning we would text and call. But later he seemed cold. I would reach out but his messages were dry.
At school he had really gotten cold too.He stopped texting and reaching out, he stopped showing affection in public and I felt confused. I talked to him about it and he apologised and said he hadn’t realised and said things would change. For 2 days he would be active and then he would go back to being cold again. Weeks passed and I had reached out to him multiple times. Each time the same pattern. We talk, he says he didn’t realise, he changes for 2 days, and then goes back to being cold.
In the weeks that followed I had never felt more unwanted in my life. Taylor had made up with Alex and they were back to being friends again but Alex still hated my guts. My friends had different opinions on it. One said that Taylor cared for me and that he simply didn’t know how to act in a relationship. Some of my friends didn’t like the way he treated me and told me I deserved better.
We’ve graduated from high school and I’ve never been more confused He never really opens up to me, and it’s a constant on and off. 90% of the time he’s cold. And only in the 10% does he show affection and care. I’m back home now with my parents and for the past week it has only been me who is reaching out, and when I do he replies 12-24 hours later. He is known to be a shitty texter but I feel like this is more than that.
I care about him so much and everyone keeps telling me that he does too but I don’t know what to do at this point. I feel so unwanted and unloved and I can’t take it anymore but at the same point he means so much to me that I’m not willing to let it go. I’ve already told him exactly what I’ve written here and he said things would change but they haven’t and I can’t go talk to him about this for the 4th time as I don’t want to be overbearing.

Hate being a mother
Why is it when moms say they are tired and hate being mothers all hell breaks loose?!?! “Men” aren’t belittled for not being there, but mothers are criticized for being there and being tired. I love my daughter to death, but if I could go back I would. I have been a single mother since the very beginning even being in a relationship with her father and it fucking sucks! I had the courage to leave him when she was 2 months and she is now 3. I was never a depressed person, but I have dealt with depression since I was pregnant with her. She has had a significant amount of health issues and I have pretty much dealt with everything by myself. She’s currently awaiting surgery number 4. I don’t have much family support or honestly just support in general. It’s truly hard to keep going. I hate my life and I feel such guilt because she has always been such a happy child. I hate the fact that as an single mother I am being robbed of actually being able to enjoy being a mother because every responsibility falls on me. The sad part is how alone I feel in a world full of people. Nobody around understands what I am going through and they always just brush me off. If this experience hasn’t taught me anything, it most definitely has taught me that people (those who claim to love me) will literally watch you drown and won’t help. The very second I am honest about my becoming a mother experience, they act like I am so wrong for feeling the way I do. I am already on medications and I go to therapy, but I don’t feel any better. Please tell me it gets better at some point.

for some context, my room mate (23f) and i (21f) have been best friends for 2.5 years. i moved in with her 4 months ago after co-signing on the apartment her and her husband share. her husband was sent away on deployment and she asked me to move in to keep her company. i’m in school full time and work full time hours so i don’t get many days off to rest. recently, an old friend of hers moved back to our city. they haven’t seen each other in 5 years. they’ve been spending a lot of time together (which i’m happy for my roomie to get out the house with her friends because she’s not working). i’m glad they’re back in contact and catching up. it makes me happy to see her happy and her friend is cool. my issue is that my roomie will make plans for us then inviting her friend without talking to me or asking me. i’ve been able to play nice and keep it pushing for the small outings but i found out last night that she invited her friend on a trip we’ve been planning for months without discussing it with me. next month, we planned a trip out of state with her husband for 3 days. her husband took leave time and i took days off for this. him and i agreed to cover the costs because my roomie hasn’t worked in a year. we had hotels and tickets purchased and everything. now all of a sudden her friend and her toddler are coming. my roomie asked her husband if it was okay but aita for wanting her to ask me? i confronted my roomie on this and told her that i’m not comfortable with this and her response was “okay well she’s my friend too and i asked my husband and he’s fine with it so idk what the big deal is”. i told her it was inconsiderate and rude. she doesn’t see it that way and she probably sees it as me not wanting to share her or being insecure. i’m a big quality time, acts of service, and words person so i’m pretty hurt by this. idk aita?

TLDR: He looked for a rebound to get over me but then he confessed again because he cannot forget me.
Basically, after three months of pursuing me, he confessed & we like each other, but then he thought that LDR will be difficult, so he regretted it. While he was trying to move on from me, he was suggested to find a rebound & he agreed.
When he knew that I discovered about it, he talked to me & said he only wanted to use her as a rebound at first but then he realized that he likes her, so he is pursuing her. I cannot blame him as we are not committed. I forgave him but I stopped talking to him to love myself yet he still talked to me, ignoring the fact that I was always cold & acting like we were good.
The rebound & him talked for two months. One day, he visited my house for the first time to just talk. He said (1) the rebound and him are only friends and (2) he regrets what he did and wants to be close again. I was touched so we reconciled for real.
A week later, he confessed to me again. He said the rebound was really just a rebound & he still could not forget me after all. He also understands now that LDR should not be a barrier. And, nothing happened between them; although she is interested in him but she cannot commit so they are never a thing.
I moved on when he said he likes the other girl, but now, my like for him has been called back. I can leave people who do not like me, but I cannot push away someone who still likes me. I am afraid that I might miss the right person.

God spoke to Abraham in Genesis 17:19

Your wife Sarah will bear you a son, and you will call him Isaac. I will establish my covenant with him as an everlasting covenant for his descendants after him.

But before Isaac had produced any descendant, God commanded Abraham in Genesis 22:2

Take your son, your only son, Isaac, whom you love, and go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains I will tell you about.

How did Abraham reconcile these two sayings from God?
The following is from Robert:
This is explained in Hebrews: he reckoned God would raise him from the dead.
Heb 11.17-19

By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises was in the act of offering up his only son, of whom it was said, “Through Isaac shall your offspring be named.” He considered that God was able even to raise him from the dead, from which, figuratively speaking, he did receive him back.

so i’m again posting a response to another comment i made just because i think it brings up some more very good points.
the comment i responded to essentially said this, ”she will never admit to anything because she is afraid of losing her kids.”
my response is this:
honestly, yeah. and as a mother - it gives me a bit more… understanding? but i don’t know if understanding is the correct word.
i am a mom - a new mom, and a first time mom. my son is 2… and i would do anything FOR him and do anything to KEEP him.
so i can empathize and sympathize with that. i really can.
the issue i think i (and most people, parents or not) have is that her actions that we see and the things that are slipping through the cracks are things that don’t show someone who has their children’s best interests at heart.
especially if some of the rumored things are true. the flushing out her system with water and whatever else - the possible diluted or invalid drug screens that she had to take multiple times. the fact that they would even open a DSS/CPS case in the first place and not immediately find it unfounded. i know how that works because i have a cousin who went through some things. if they don’t have a reason to open a case - they won’t. they won’t reach out in the first place within the first ~72 hours or however much the cutoff is. they would send pamphlets or maybe send someone over from another facility to offer at minimum safe sleep information or whatever other information and no one from the CPS/DSS office will reach out personally unless they are opening a case. even if it’s decided later to be unfounded - and it can be unfounded if someone does literally any and everything to COVER up their fuck ups - they will close it and say it’s “unfounded.”
i also want to add that it depends SO HIGHLY on who your assigned case worker is or how the particular office works itself. SO many workers are underpaid and overworked… that’s why the turnaround rate in that field is astronomically high. there are thousands upon thousands of times where cases that SHOULD have been taken seriously - aren’t. and kids fall through the cracks of that system time and time again and don’t get the help they SHOULD. and i’m not even necessarily saying that’s the name of the game in this situation even… but i am saying it happens. we truly don’t know the inner workings of it - nor will we ever because we are just bystanders to the train wreck this is.
she thinks just because she can say her two cases were unfounded in the end… that she did nothing wrong in the first place. and that’s not true. she had to have done something for them to open those cases in the first place. i promise you that.
source: a family member had some CPS involvement and i saw how that went. i also have my degree in the field of psychology and although i don’t do social work - i am not TOOOOO far from that world and had to learn about that stuff in my education.
as for her cleaning up her act and going to whatever measures she has to to keep her kids… well, i can’t blame her for that. i don’t think any of us who are parents can. i think we all would do the same if we were in her shoes.
i think the point is… we see certain things she is doing as harmful to her children. and those things aren’t necessarily things that ever will get her kids taken from her. and they aren’t things that there are laws against, even though i feel there should be.
such as:

1. putting her children online without consent and exploiting their life struggles for monetary gain. airing out her family’s dirty toxic laundry on the internet for anyone and their mama to find… peers of her kids, bullies, LITERALLY ANYONE.
   
2. having a brutal and ugly and toxic and abusive separation and relationship with her ex and immediately jumping into a new relationship prior to even giving anyone time to heal.
   
3. making careless and spineless decisions such as (but not limited to) having someone go do a bogus spy mission disguised as a “wellness check” on her ex. which put EVERYONE in danger - including innocent bystanders… the person they sent to do the wellness check… her ex himself… and the relationship of her kids with their father and father figure. (again, if you’re new to my posts. i know our reactions to people’s actions are only our responsibilities - and R is as fault for being unstable and reckless enough to fire rounds in a public space in city limits. however, they could have sent a family member of his over to check on him if they were so worried. and none of that would have happened that way. they wanted to elicit a response and he fell for it. it was conniving and sneaky and toxic and abusive and it worked.)
   
4. IF the rumors are true - she’s had unsavory people around her children. i have a huge heart myself. and i am always forgiving of others and that goes for people of all walks of life. i can understand her forgiving others for their mistakes in their pasts. but girl, just because you have a big heart and forgive others and can look past their pasts doesn’t mean anyone and everyone belongs around your kids. especially during a very difficult adjustment period for them. it’s confusing. it’s not making things better for anyone except your “friends” and yourself. that’s literally it. just because you have a big and forgiving heart does NOT mean that you can overlook and throw caution to the wind when it comes down to HEALTHY BOUNDARIES and a HEALTHY ENVIRONMENT not only for yourself - but most of all your kids.
   
5. the use of different substances around or in the home where your children live. again, if the rumors are true. you can’t just hit the meth pipe for funsies here and there because you think it’s “hot” or whatever was said. you can’t be getting pills from a friend or anyone for any period of time when you don’t have your own prescription or not. her ex either CHOSE to get a hotel during his times of use because even if he’s a train wreck - at least he doesn’t want to subject his kids to it. or else she made him get a room. and i think both of those scenarios happened at different times. as in, there was a period where he chose to leave and then there was a period where he tried to stay home and she made him leave. if he can’t use stimulants and drink at home… girl, you can’t either. that’s the pot literally calling the kettle black.
   

i think it’s fair to say that she will never be forthcoming because she’s afraid of losing her kids. i get it.
but it’s also frustrating for everyone because we see all these things that don’t look like the actions of someone who really cares about their kids wellbeing in the first place. 🤷🏼‍♀️
EDIT: not to mention people are mostly asking questions about things she has originally said she would provide proof for or talk about. IE: the drug test results for CPS/DSS. the allegations that there was cheating on both sides of the relationship which she eventually back pedaled on HARD… those things.
don’t offer up info in the first place and say you’re coming correct with proof and then turn around and gas light your audience by calling us crazy and obsessed for wanting the things you originally promised.

Just wanted to share my thoughts on what recently helped me out of depression, addiction and for the most part out of anxiety and panic attacks. (I was a wreck for over 2 years, almost since covid started). This may not be the way for everyone but maybe someone out there tries the same and it helps someone which would make me also very happy :)
I recently got more into my own mental health and also listened alot to people like David Goggins (also started reading his book "cant hurt me")One thing he said, i don't remember when or where but: "To feel better about yourself, you need undeniable evidence (in terms of proofing yourself to yourself) that you are the person you want to be"I was always stuck at just looking at my progress (in life and the gym) and that its all about looking better, and that im not happy with where i am. I was not happy that I had few friends, no girlfriend. I thought if I just stick to it and achieve XY I will be happy. But I've noticed thats not what helps, it rather sends you down a destructive cycle that won't end in happiness.I found out, its more about challenging yourself every day, in all areas in life. Doing the things that you know deep down will make you proud help so much with depression. There is this little voice in your head that sometimes pops up and tells you the thing you ACTUALLY want to do, even so you don't feel like it. It can also be that voice that makes you depressed because you are not acting on your own values. E.g. I have/had social anxiety and there was this voice in my head that told me to go out with people, but my anxiety kept holding me back. This made me feel depressed. On the other hand when I tried, just tried and did the thing (even so I felt awkward at first) I felt proud about myself and my depression lifted.
But its not about your current state of where you are in life. Its ALL aspects of life. And its all relative to yourself. NOT to other people.
For example my cardio was always shit, I never did it. But I recently started cycling like 3 month ago. It takes alot to make yourself do things regular that you at first don't enjoy. But as soon as you notice that you can now do things you never expected of yourself a little bit of that depression will be replaced by proud.
I'm proud that I now can run like i could as a child, that I'm not out of breath even after sprinting up the stairs. I'm proud that I go to work everyday and give it all even so I don't feel like it alot of the days. I'm proud that I got my diet under "control" in terms of I eat enough protein and kcal to support my exercise. I'm proud that my life now has structure and I feel like I'm alive, and not just exist. I'm proud of all those small goals I set myself every day.
The other thing VERY important thing which I fixed, and if this is a problem for you it will 100% make your depression worse, is sleep. I now can say that I improved my sleep night by night over the past 3 month using sleep tracking devices. I implemented things before bed to sleep better and longer.
I no longer nap during the day, even after lunch I just feel a little tired but I have lots of energy during the day. I'm still using some sleep medication but I also taper it down to have natural sleep again. (but medication can help to give yourself structure)
Go to bed at almost the same time every day. Even on the weekend. Its okay to have like one day a week thats more late night but being consistent with it will help your mind and body.
Some people may read this and think this is your typical "hOw To FiX yOuR dEpPreSsIOn tutorial" but it actually worked very very well for me. Maybe you don't feel like it but give it a try.
