I like the irony. He's already gloating over your supposed fate.Gary Childress wrote: ↑Thu Mar 12, 2026 10:33 pmThanks. Apparently, I'll need all the luck I can get in this world.

Re: Global Capitalism
You mistake my tone. I'm not gloating. I'm hoping he is aware of the consequentiality of the decision. He seems rather flippant about it...and that seems to me rather unfortunate for him. I would rather he'd be more serious about his prospects, for his own welfare.Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Thu Mar 12, 2026 11:05 pmI like the irony.

Yes. It does sound like it. I don't know who is angrier at me, God or IC.Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Thu Mar 12, 2026 11:05 pmI like the irony. He's already gloating over your supposed fate.Gary Childress wrote: ↑Thu Mar 12, 2026 10:33 pmThanks. Apparently, I'll need all the luck I can get in this world.

Re: Global Capitalism
I'd be careful with IC. People who are like how he comes across here: They know not what they do. I would guess he probably thinks he is trying to help you towards your salvation, while other things are going on, really.Gary Childress wrote: ↑Fri Mar 13, 2026 10:32 am Yes. It does sound like it.

Re: Global Capitalism
I'm quite amused by people like Iwanna. They remind me of a line from Oscar Wilde: “Women have a wonderful instinct about things. They can discover everything except the obvious.”Gary Childress wrote: ↑Fri Mar 13, 2026 11:53 amYes. He's a big "help".Iwannaplato wrote: ↑Fri Mar 13, 2026 11:38 amI'd be careful with IC.

I can't wait to hear about these "other things going on." Lovely.
