  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

It just feels like the same old, same old. Thats why it's frustrating.
You guys pray for me? That's sweet.

I was looking at Myers-Briggs types yesterday again.

INFJ seems too caring for me. INTJ doesn't have enough emotion for me.

I'm wondering if I'm ISTJ.

Maybe I'm a mix of all 3. It just depends on the situation. Definitely I is one, J is last. The middle ones are trickier for me.

I think that’s true for most. I’m an ENTJ and one of the few extroverts who didn’t struggle with the lockdown. I’m more like an ambivert in all truth. I value interactions and alone time.

I don’t have a problem expressing myself. My TJ is a gatekeeper. I can dissect problems with no emotional interference even when my heart’s involved. It’s an internal shift. But my default is nurturing.

Feelings aren’t always an indication of what’s true or best. Sometimes I indulge them or repress them as needed.

Are you going to get them? My friend's excited. He's a Pokemanic. I suppose I am too. I play the TCG, the TCG online, Pokemon Go, all regularly, & occasionally watch the anime & buy collectibles. The only thing I don't do at this point is play the mainline games. I guess I have a hard time sitting for a 40+ hour game & Sun & Moon were pretty disappointing. D&P originals were amazing tho.

I like your avatar

I won't, but my brother might get one of them. I don't play the mainline games either aside from Let's Go, Eevee! but he enjoys them. I have fond memories of watching him play Pokemon Pearl years ago and watching the anime. I mainly play some of the non-mainline games and collect Pokemon plushies and figures.

Thanks! I bet your friend will enjoy the games when they're available. I heard there's another game called Pokemon Legends: Arceus coming next year, too.

Yep, I haven't looked into the Arceus game, but he's excited about it.

@cara-mia I was listening to this when your message came in and it crossed my mind the other day. I think it’s time.

Healing. Restoration. Renewal.


It is definitely time.

No, I had to rig it. But, it works.

Well done! You're an industrious hermit.

What are you planting?

I enjoyed tilling soil. We used the broadfork to turn it. And a tiller of course. I liked the dibbler too. Weeding was my favorite. I was very handy with the hoop hoe. I was made for a farm or something country.

Gardeners around the world are looking for you.

I'm too delicate for heavy work. *lol* That's how I injured my back. But I enjoyed it nonetheless. Farming is fun.

I tried to do a year long program afterwards. I'd live on the farm and learn animal husbandry, logging, management, and lots of neat things! But the Lord closed the door. For good reasons. I'd really hurt myself. I wanted to homestead and gave it a whirl to see if I could handle it.

For the spring garden: onions, collards, lettuce, carrots, spinach, radishes, and my sister is insisting on beets. I guess those too.

Nice spread. French radishes are nice. No kale or swiss chard? What kind of onions? I love scapes.

My opinion, most (not all) labor intensive activities can be done with the right pace. A slow, steady pace gets more done than one that is frantic. Of course, that's coming from someone in the south, which is often hot. I imagine in a colder climate frantic work has it's advantages, lol.

What kind of onions?

Vidalia onions. Is there another kind? You can eat a Vidalia like an apple. So, so good.

I've tried kale, but I'd rather eat collards. Better taste, imo. I wouldn't know what to do with swiss chard. Soup?
