Is is just me, or does this title fit a good portion of the people that post in the Rant & Raves? Personally, I am a Heterosexual Conservative, God-fearing Christian, but to each their own. Before you get all froggy & jump, I have many friends from all walks of life & that includes homosexual liberal.....well, I don't know any atheists.

Basically, I just wanted a reason to post this pic. Ya'll can Rant & Rave about it. Have fun & I'll enjoy reading.

Maybe if you were a God Loving Christian instead of a God fearing Christian you would love your neighbor as you love thyself as Jesus commanded.

And when you get to Heaven if the Lord decides to bestow that on to you, will you still be heterosexual? Will you still be Conservative? Will I still be Liberal? Will you Love me?

No, it's just you. Most of us are hetrosexual Christians. Some are Liberals....some are not. There are a few Atheists and a smattering of gay folks. Some of them are Conservatives....some are not.

It's just you.

While there are a lot of liberals in this area, there is a wide variety within that group. I personally am heterosexual, married and Christain.

I am liberal, I know that. I am heterosexual, but love homosexuals. Not sure what that means, besides I am non-judgemental. Not quite atheist, I think I believe in God. I asked him some advice on whether to be a believer or not, and I am still waiting for him to get back with me on that one. Maybe he lost my number in his PDA.

What difference does it make?

Why go and ask such an ignorant question? I say this is a brazen attempt to start crap.

If you had actually read any of the posts you would see that we are passionate people from all walks of life.

I would say that the liberals are not the ones depicted in that cartoon.

I am a liberal, heterosexual atheist with many homosexual friends. I also have a valued friend who has right wing views and is a homophobe. He is undecided as to whether he believes in Intelligent Design or not; this fellow does not attend any church, however, although he did have his kids baptised in the Anglican church.

Though we are radically different, we occasionally find ourselves sharing a viewpoint. This is part of the value of freedom of speech, I reckon, for it does engage us all in intellectual growth.

Your cartoon was silly but you have prompted an array of interesting responses and so it has met your stated goal. Thanks for posting it.:)

I'm convinced this thread was ghost written by Ron Cusano. I think Ron was starting to get bored because few people were biting on his "trolling" attempts on the other thread.

As for me, I'm a liberal, atheist, gay, black whale. Will you be my friend?

Yes, oh yes! But only if you like Canadians!

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
