    Interesting discussion going on with #sonTwo. What should band members do when a member of a Christian music group decides they no longer believe in God?

    Do they kick the person out? Do they continue as they have been? What is the reasoning for whatever choices they make?

    As usual, we're coming at it from different perspectives (different from each other as well as different from where I think we each would have come from a few years earlier).

    I just used Google maps to estimate the distances from the building where I lived to each of the three closest supermarkets. Surprisingly, it was only around 2.5 miles / 4.0 kilometers walk in each direction ... for some reason, I remember it being longer.

    Anyway, we often relied upon neighborhood markets that were essentially convenience stores. I think there being little concession to the needs of pedestrians also made it a little more challenging.

    @fu You mean you don't have to sit at a table in front of the local supermarkets selling GS cookies? I thought that was the whole idea of being a girl scout parent.

    When I was much younger, I worked at the local liquor store. A frequent customer named Phil had four daughters. He would let us know that it was girl scout cookie season, and would bring each of his four daughters individually to sell us cookies.

    At the time, I made $64/week after taxes, so having $10 gobbled up by fundraising was a significant crimp.

    I've lost 35 pounds in 19½ months. Most of the time, I haven't been making any effort to do so. Just trying to get 15K steps each day and occasionally turning down less healthy foods. I'm now within 10-15lb of my weight at age 40.

    A home nearby had a sign yesterday. “LP Records for sale”

    I didn’t look at their selection of records because I have never owned a record player. They probably have some interesting records, too.

    @fu I didn't like cheese until I was in my early twenties. I suspect that pre-sliced "cheese" was already some sort of processed food product. What happened was I signed up for a cheese club and got European cheeses shipped to my door. They were surprisingly good.

    Even today, I'm not a fan of sliced cheese-like food product.

    A few years back, I went to a family member's wedding. One of their in-laws had a 1½ year old. Today, they sent a picture. That little kid is in school.

    I did not know it had been that long.

    On the #Russia vs #Ukraine front, I would say #Putin has been planning to reconquer the former USSR and former Warsaw Pact countries since around 2008. I did not notice it at the time, but I briefly considered it in 2014.

    Once I started doing more reading about their conflict after the current phase of their war started in 2022, I'm surprised people don't see it ... and don't see that he intends to put neo-Soviet boots on the ground in Berlin and Paris.

    This means the #GOP "antiwar" folks have their heads up their you know whats. Or they're so addicted to the benefits--free advertising from RT, possible bribes and payoffs--and lack any consciences.
