Be thankful in all things.
But how can I be thankful to learn of my own sin?

Could a golfer be thankful to learn of an error in his stroke which, if he fixes it, will result in a drive that is more powerful and more accurate?

Pray for me, brothers, that I would submit to His discipline and be a better channel for His power.

"In the widening gyre, beauty is reviled and peace is not easy to find. We have lost someone who created beauty. Let us hope that she has found peace."

Sometimes it is ok to not have a hot take and just grieve.

Pulled in the driveway at the end of my work day and found we were getting a visit from part of the local wild turkey flock.

'The Price of Coal' - 2 films broadcast by the BBC in 1977. They were written by Barry Hines of 'Kes' fame, were produced by the lefty team of Tony Garnett and Ken Loach, and depict the goings on around a fictionalised Yorkshire coal mine of the times. Although made by commies and promoting a traditionally leftist view that the working classes were exploited by the bosses for profit, they now depict an almost Utopian, shire-like England, entirely homogenous, masculine and ordered. In those days, the left fully accepted the socially conservative traditions of the indigenous working class, for, at the time, they still represented the most likely and available vector for their deeply desired revolution. The films are products of their times - prior to the ruinous 1984 miner's strike, they reference Arthur Scargill at times and what was to come. Those inside the radical left KNEW that a confrontation was being planned. The miners were victims of capital on one side and cynical Marxists on the other. But these films are genuinely insightful, moving and entertaining. The first is played for laughs; the second far more politically tendentious, but still brilliantly done. You can watch the first for free on YouTube - the second is out there on various platforms. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDpBuFqWeSs

To add to the post above. The 'left's' position over the years has profoundly shifted in these ways: In 1977, they were content to utilise the conditions of the indigenous working class in a doctrinally prescribed manner, inasmuch as their curated and managed resentments could be crafted toward organised revolt or revolution, which would, in turn, cede the power of the state to those that managed these forces. They did not come to profoundly alter or change them at the personal and private level. to turn them into the products of revolution itself. So, they respected traditional norms of community, masculinity and family and never even raised the issues of race and ethnicity. For he Northern England of that time was almost untouched by mass immigration - its industrial heartlands were 100% MALE and ENGLISH. That is why these films offer a genuinely moving and profoundly insightful vision of traditional Northern working-class lives. All these years later, the power dynamics have changed altogether. The ambitions of the leftist activists have all been realised. They occupy the seats of power in the state, corporations, quangos, third sector and charities. Therefore, their need for the (now vanished) muscle of organised labour has entirely gone. Their obsessions are with race, ethnicity, identity, gender, etc. Their last battle is in removing every last British person from independent thought and action - merely objects of their never-ending revolution against nature, nation and God. The irony being that the 1984 miner's strike did a great deal to set these wheels in motion. The miners themselves lost, but the state/money-power and all of its malign energies won. and went on to literally remove these communities from the face of the earth.

Guys, do you have a boomercon Dad? Do you red pill him and then find he has RESET next time you talk through his steady diet of containment media?

I recommend a dose of the boomer whisperer, Auron MacIntyre.
