There were some pretty interesting changes announced. Brief rundown of the two announcements: Brothers can wear beards. Service is no longer mandatory and you don't have to report your time. Sisters can wear slacks to the KH and in service. Disfellowshipped people can be given a simple greeting and can be invited to meetings. Changes to how elders meet with people and dispense judgement. Changes to elders interacting with minors. Changes to the shunning practice.

A lot of people feel that this is in response to the government in Norway removing the JW Org from it's list of official religions and defunding them.

Here's a link to announcement #2. Check the beard! Holy crap! https://www.jw.org/en/news/region/global/2024-Governing-Body-Update-2/

I got my steam deck just after Thanksgiving and love it. It's my first mobile gaming device; my wife loves her switch so I thought I'd give one a shot. Totally worth it. Tons of games for cheap, you can run it through a dock to play on your TV and use console controllers.. ... I feel like an ad, sorry. Been really enjoying it. :-)

Steam says that it's "playable" on the Deck. Might need a custom controller layout, which is probably available in settings. Also mentioned needing to use the onscreen keyboard. Doesn't seem like a barrier to playing.

Going to be super cold where I am this weekend. Thinking that my couch, dogs, and Steam Deck will all get a lot of attention.

...fascists get passes... That's got to be part of a song lyric. If not, it should be.

Should I use one translated by a king instead? They're all translated at some point. You just decided that yours is a better translation so you can shit on other people. Typical fucking christian.
