Mate I can't remember the kids name or the topic title but it was in the small talk forum

I know, it was Jesus. They arrested him and then couldn't figure out what he'd done, but they executed him anyway.

It might have been James Connolly though. Mind you they didn't even bother taking him to court.

Hang on, they weren't kids though. Oh well, I tried.

Well apparently we're barking up the wrong tree but now we're here, did they actually find him guilty of any of that? Not sure they even accused him with assault and breaking the peace, though I think they discussed blasphemy and treason with him, but he kind of slipped out of that by answering a question with a question. What a justice system. These days it'd be "answer the effing question or you'll be in the slammer for contempt till you do."

According to scripture, Pilate declared that he couldn't find any fault in him, then he got passed on to the rabbis, and I don't think there are any details about any further interrogation. But I could be wrong. I'm not famous for knowing scripture off by heart and they make it hard to look up because it's all fragmented across several gospels. We need a time machine to settle this.

Yes. I've done my usual trick - when I don't know the answer to something I wade in with reams of useless speculation. But it's sometimes very entertaining, and you never know what'll turn out useful till you've said it.

Why does my Firefox dictionary mark "what'll" as an unknown word? I thought it was a legitimate abbreviation for "what will." Is it just a crap dictionary or am I wrong?

I'm just observing what's in the story, I'm not convinced it's historical fact but that's beside the point. :nerdy:

Nothing much.

Just a weird week of losing cravings for sugary stuff all the sudden.
Don't know how much of this is hormones being utterly confusing as usual or a delayed subconscious calling.

It's day 6.
Just as stressed out if not more, but zero urge to snuck and binge.

Usually if I am this stressed out, I crave and binge something off in one sitting.
I swore, at Monday, I brought what it looked like a whole 2 days worth of salary of stuff and ate it all in one sitting...

... By Tuesday, nothing. Wednesday came... None.
Thursday was a full time day. Nothing.
Friday had an unplanned schedule that confused the heck out of me. Not even a single packet of candy spent.
Yesterday -- Saturday, I'm sure my system is screwed all over, yet nothing.

Sunday - today, still nothing.

Usually, when I binge off, I double down the next day, or have to be super mindful and topple off in few days.

This week... None of that happens.
Because there's nothing to resist. Nothing to focus on. It just... Is.

I wonder if round spectacles are suitable for all face shapes and sizes

Maybe it's one of the effects of my wish to never spiral.

For me to catch myself from stress induced inanity, snacks was one of the few avenues I knew.

And I'm talking about decades of ingained habit since childhood.
Stuff I rely on comfort to a point it has recklessly gotten me broke a few times now.

With years of trying to stop and just kept failing over and over.

But like exploding, ranting, and all, over and over -- I guess it just...
... Went away. Without trying.

And I chose to play along with it.
Will monitor in 2-3 more weeks.
