Olympus Has Fallen (2013) in Movies ·
No, no way, that second one is much more entertaining 😁
Anyone else rewatch RED 2? in Movies ·
As long as it manages to be half as entertaining as the first installment, it’ll easily outshine all those tedious, self-righteous White House saviors and their tiresome hero tropes.

Actually, why am I even speculating? I watched the trailer, and seeing John Malkovich 🤣 right at the start is enough for me—it’s already looking like a masterpiece. 😁
Olympus Has Fallen (2013) in Movies ·
I intend to watch both films 😁

Sometimes I find myself gravitating toward mindless action flicks, and since Jamie Foxx plays the President in this second installment, it ought to be quite entertaining 🙂
Olympus Has Fallen (2013) in Movies ·
What kind of people are you 🤣

Has anyone here actually bothered to read the plot synopsis before watching?

So, the premise is simple: an attack on the White House, the President gets kidnapped (the same one from that terrible movie where he was chasing aliens through LA), and then we get our lone hero.

A movie built on such tropes is bound to be overflowing with forced patriotism, glaring logical fallacies, and completely nonsensical decision-making. 😁

A decent action flick, nothing more and nothing less. Honestly, I actually found it better than the last Male mortality 😁
Fish1968 - moderator on Astrology II in Feedback & Suggestions ·
The way you communicate is frankly exhausting. Your astrological theories are completely incoherent to me. At times, I get the impression that the planets have absolutely nothing to do with your actual theory; rather, it feels like you’re just developing some personal life philosophy and occasionally tossing a planet into the mix just to justify it. This isn't just about one single post, either—it’s a pattern found throughout your entire series of posts.

That's all from me.

Amanda Miller said:However, there is another side to this coin.
And that is that Fish is passive-aggressive, cannot tolerate anyone with a differing opinion, and favors those who submit to her self-righteous mentorship. Yet, if they dare to hold a view contrary to hers, this supposedly "caring" mentor immediately retreats behind her wounded ego. Furthermore, while her astrological knowledge is extensive, it remains almost entirely textbook and theoretical; nonetheless, she treats it as sacrosanct and feels threatened by anyone she suspects might possess more nuanced or comprehensive expertise than her own. She then attempts to discredit them in a subtle, sophisticated manner.

That is incorrect. I serve as a moderator for the Astrology group alongside Fish, and our perspectives on the subject differ significantly.

For instance, I am not a proponent of "psychological" astrology, and I rarely even consider the planets "behind" Saturn when conducting a horoscope analysis, as I believe very few people are actually influenced by them.
Doing business with USA member states in Business, Accounting & Taxes ·
I am requesting some clarification from the experts here:

"Final Proposal for Amendments to the Sales Tax Law"

Article 79.

The invoice must include the following information:

Paragraph 6.

the unit price excluding sales tax, specifically the amount of compensation for goods delivered or services
rendered, categorized by sales tax rate


If my interpretation of this language is correct, does this imply that every single line item on a restaurant receipt must now explicitly list its individual price before sales tax is applied?

John Johnson16 said:Well, God created Judas too, and he ended up betraying Him, so one could argue he wasn't truly from God. I feel like people just don't seem to grasp these concepts. What exactly are you trying to accomplish here? Are we attempting to relativize Good and Evil, or even the Truth and Falsehood? I'm afraid that simply isn't possible.
It seems to me that many are living in a state of total ignorance—and please, don't think for a second that I'm claiming to be some sort of sage—but such a mindset can be quite fatal. When that time comes, what will actually save you? Will it be some earthly, imaginary version of God you've conjured up?

As for Yoga, (http://www.jmanjackal.net/cro/croyoga.htm - perhaps this will provide a bit more clarity)

If He is the one who brought him into existence, then he belongs to Him.

Anthony Cook8 -You’ve articulated everything perfectly, yet somehow you still choose to mock rather than truly see.
northernowl11 -I am certainly not elevating myself here; rather, it is those of you who believe that some hollow meditation involving the repetitive chanting of various mantras can actually save the Unicorn.

It is much like when a glimmer of light is kindled before a man, and he continues to extinguish it simply because he lacks the strength to open his eyes and gaze steadily into that Light, choosing instead to squint and struggle against it with all his might.

Then who, precisely, is responsible for creating Evil?

John Johnson16 said:I feel quite strongly that anything which isn't from God, or aligned with Him, is something I am perfectly entitled to despise.

Is there truly anything in existence that God did not create? 😁
Taken 2 (2012) in Movies ·
The first installment was significantly better.

It’s honestly disappointing; I used to think people were just being dramatic when they claimed the sequel was a letdown.

At this point, it’s probably best to just skip it.
Request to bring Geomancy back to the Magic and Mysticism thread in Feedback & Suggestions ·
I have already stated my position regarding other methods of divination, and I cannot be held responsible if you failed to grasp the substance of my argument.

It is patently obvious that your sole intention here is to provoke an argument and resort to insults; I would strongly suggest you find someone in the real world to whom you can vent your frustrations.

Geomancy is a method of divination that maintains indirect links to astrology. Much like other similar practices whose primary objective is strictly predictive in nature, it falls under the category of all sorts of things.

Tarot is far more than just a tool for fortune-telling. While many view it solely through the lens of divination, that is merely one small facet of its potential utility. When you look closer, these cards serve as sophisticated gateways to the astral plane and act as intricate blueprints for constructing occult rituals, thanks to the dense layers of symbolism embedded within individual cards. Furthermore, each card of the Major Arcana can function as a profound instrument for meditation or even psychoanalysis, given the powerful archetypes they manifest. Is it not reductive to limit such a system to mere prediction? Because divination represents only a minor application of what these tools can actually achieve, we have agreed that this subject warrants its own distinct category for discussion.

For much the same reason, I have established a dedicated thread regarding horary astrology within the Astrology subforum.
Techniques and Rituals: Best combinations? in Spirituality ·
Elizabeth Castillo87 said:Honestly, I just mix them up however I feel like, depending on my mood or whatever spiritual itch I need to scratch at the moment.😍

So, what kind of mess do you think I'm headed for?

Since we’re already talking about cooking... who knows? Maybe nothing happens, maybe I end up with food poisoning, or maybe just some serious stomach issues. It's anyone's guess.
Techniques and Rituals: Best combinations? in Spirituality ·
Avoid this approach.

Think of it like a novice chef starting out in a kitchen. In those early days, you stick to the basics—dishes where the flavors are a guaranteed match. You go with something reliable like steak and mashed potatoes, or maybe grilled salmon with asparagus.

It’s only once you’ve mastered the fundamentals and truly understand how different flavor profiles interact that you can start experimenting with more exotic combinations that actually work. For instance, you might try something like chicken paired with apples and a pineapple glaze. 😁
How to stay spiritually strong? in Spirituality ·
It is quite simply a matter of spiritual deficiency. Once you finally cease the futile habit of measuring your own life against everyone else's yardstick and actually begin living for yourself rather than catering to the expectations of others, everything changes.
A little problem in Spirituality ·
I honestly wonder how long they could possibly hold onto a job if they even manage to land one with an attitude like that.
A little problem in Spirituality ·
You haven't made any progress at all. If you had actually taken even a single step forward on that path, you wouldn't be sitting there judging others for not being "advanced" like yourself.
New Age spiritual technologies in Spirituality ·
For heaven's sake, I haven't even attended a single 😲
All your little theories and logic go right out the window the moment an attractive woman walks by.

The ego vanishes, the schedule is forgotten, the energy dissipates, and even your spirituality evaporates into thin air. 😁
