In the distant past, a Clergy wrote about how he respected and acknowledged those in their senior age (a euphemism for dried up, ugly old @#*% like me who lose their train of though often, heck, lose their entire CSX of thought) deserve respect. But I am not seeing this lately. Oh, we be scalin', gettin' big, and we gots to move these old folks with their walkers aside so we can Build for Eternity™️. I can see from the way many of you folks write, that I probably could have diapered most of your backsides a mere 20 years ago at the most. (I don't use a walker thank you very much. I can kick higher than my head like an MMA boss man, and have taken the thyme (rosemary and parsley and sage too) to read many of the materials on here.) Maybe I will buy a ritual in TV but I dunno, is that a good idea, or will I spontaneously combust if I try it because my telomeres are shredded worse than the skin of your typical skid row bum who's just rolled awake out of his cardboard box, to make that Ka meet that Ba and make that lovely twain meet? Waiting with baited breath and Icebreakers mints for your expert young-un opinion(s). The twain has pretty much run me over anyway, choo-choo, at least according to those two lovely pillars, Everybody and They. Which I disagree with but oh well. Guess I just have to go with the manufactured consent song and dance, find my inner elegy and go with the flow and go find my rocking chair.

I am "supposed" to be past the age of redemption, self- or otherwise. I half considered having the agents returning me to the power grid, and "becom[ing] a Catholic again / the oldest altar boy in the parish / complete with surplice and cassock" in the words of Poet Laureate Billy Collins. But no I won't back down. My years, my gray hair, and my old, ugly face that drops ravens from the skies when I look up, and sends kids running for their mommies or the nearest restroom, will not stop me from continually reading the lovely materials on these sites. I have clout. I have even stayed awake long enough to do some of the God rituals, which is really hard these days since I have to take a nap every 15 minutes these days (no, not really, but again, I won't disappoint, why not whet your appetites with a wonderful stereotype narrative) - and they tell me they have my back (all of it). I will not back down until I have saved enough money to buy the Wepwawet ritual and all the others I need to rise above. I am on limited income, but I am not letting this stop me. I am out on the streets and in shelters instead of in a senior citizen air-conditioned/heated coffin otherwise known as "a place to stay," because of my conviction. Paying an absentee, private venture capital nabob, "rent," is not big on my bullet list right now. I am this convinced that these privately available rituals will "at the end of the day" get me fruits beyond my wildest current dreams. 'Scues me, Trump. Mar a Lago is, now, mine. Can't wait till I speak those words with my mouth, nose, ears, eyes and crypto flash drive lit up like a Yuletide tree. (Hey there is a reason for the season and the laser-eyes trope for crypto. Bet you never thought of the laser eyes meme in that light, open your mouth close your eyes you will get a big surprise ritual fans, huh?) Just kidding, Trump, maybe I will let you keep your humble abode. Lol.

Hey, I won't disappoint, either, with your preconceived notions of us on our iPads and Gateways going crazy with our emoticons because "we think they are so cute": [typing randomly with my nose] 🧐🌞🔋🪫⚕️⚕️🧐✅🏈🏈 there ya go, ok?

Listen. I may be chronologically "old". But I can still walk 30 miles from the outskirts of the city to Downtown - carrying 50 pounds in my backpack - with "someone" up there doing his Ra Roid Rage thing and making me hotter than a pistol, which irritates me but that doesn't stop me. And, walk all-l the way back. So, where do you guys get the notion that our "senile" brains are so ossified that we cannot rise above the intellectual/spiritual level of an Aplysia and possibly, achieve, theurgy? I think I can play some of your board games. I have walked on the Riverwalk, the "board" walk in Tampa and I can attest to something getting really hard, still, when those hot girls in their twenties and thirties run by on in their tights, on that beautiful walkway by the river, and it isn't my pineal chakra. What most of the world calls "old age" never really settled in on me as a concept. I have been an "old man" since the age of 4. An old soul, young at heart. So lighten up and take chill pills OK? I have had enough with "age-ism" in the society at large. Let's not let this ogre into our glorious collection of websites and our community.

I hope this serves as an inspiration for all cane-users, walker-users etc. out there that it is never too late. Jump in, join the ever-growing crowd. I have not been disappointed and neither will you.
 
I would not be who I am today if not for my Grandmother, a highly intelligent, wise, and insightful woman. I have respect for those who have earned it.

However, there are older people who have limited mindsets and arrogance, thinking they deserve respect just because they have lived more years.

And society is held back and even harmed because of certain groups of old people such as politicians and CEOs who trash our planet because they don't understand the bigger picture and taking care of the future.

We don't judge based on age. We judge based on the individual. There are young people who are not providing any value, being too caught up in video games and drugs and not even providing the value of having a family or doing any sort of important work for society.

Generally, elder people should have wisdom to pass on to the younger generations, like my Grandmother did for me. They should have more important things to impart upon us than their erections for girls young enough to be their granddaughter, which you crassly mention. Some things are best left as thoughts, not as written word.

You've only been here 10 days, you can advance a lot with meditation and yoga and the God rituals, which will put you much farther ahead in your next life.
 
100% on all. I meant to express my vitality when I mentioned "that physiological phenomenon". Sorry if I offended anyone with my crassness.

Yes, ignorance and hybris exist at all ages. And I don't see anything wrong with "admiring" consenting-age adults, regardless of their age. Don't get me wrong. As someone having been in and out of the forster child/parent system, I am 100% against pedophelia. I have been the subject of this type of abuse myself.If I ever catch someone doing this to an innocent child, that perp will get his neck really really wet, after I get through with him.

And - and I speak to the collective audience reading this post and I don't mean any disrespect to you as a High Clergy (and thank you for replying). But, you guys do you, and I do me. I wanna retire to the Seychelles for a while or a remote island in the South Pacific with hundreds of 20 to 30 year old women (they are not girls) that I can "express myself" to whenever I want. The Hero thing is not for me. Yet. I don't wanna be a statue, as Cochran said in that Star Trek movie..My ultimate (Wepwa)wet d---- is to achieve this. And don't worry, I won't become one of those deep state players and project my vices out to the world at large, Epstein style. I wanna glow out of my mouth ears and nose for these women and make them my slaves, oh, for a while. Don't worry, I'll make up for it with them later with the quadrillions of crypto I will speak into existence. Fair trade. They'll all get their own mansions, Rollies and Patek Phillip watches for their trouble. Paradise forever, or at least as close to forever as I can come (no pun intended ok I'lll stop with that). I have been out on the streets since '08 and am sick to the bone of the cynicism, stereotyping, bigotry, I have encountered. I want to take a long sabbatical of women wine n song before I get started on this ascendancy business. Are you going to intellectualize and quote from the Stoics or Adam Sandler for all its worth, and deny me this catch-up phase in my long life?
 
Sorry, but I had a great laugh at your quips :ROFLMAO:

Yes, young people tend to, in a vacuum, have more of the go-getter attitude that will get you far in ToZ. But this is only in theory: today's generation is quite lethargic and careless.
And it's never "too late" to do pretty much anything in life. Regardless of your age, you can just decide one day to achieve great things, and have a solid chance, especially nowadays.

We don't judge based on age. If there's any place where people are likely to break outside what the stereotypical norm for the groups they're a part of is, it's here.

It's obvious from your attitude that you're "younger" than many of us. Something tells me you'll have great success here.

Are you on the Vultus Templorum platform? We could use a presence like this to add some wit to things.
 
Something like 80% of people are basically retarded. Does this change as they get older? Usually not. Most young people and most old people have an extremely low bandwidth of consciousness, they can only think of one small simple thought at a time. They have no functional intuition and no strong logic, so they are unable to determine the truth about anything through either path. They are ignorant. They are brainwashed. They are civilizationally suicidal, working every day for the extinction of our own race and the extinction of our own countries and civilizations. They are so absolutely worthless and self destructive just because of ignorance and low intelligence that they might as well be evil and be trying to extinct ourselves purposefully through evil and purposeful intentions, because either way the result is the same.

Is there any age group that this is not true for? Is there a generation that is better? The older generation is more aware in some ways, but at the same time they are the ones who created most of the problems for the younger generation. There is not really any age group that is significantly better or worse.

It is possible for somebody to grow and to improve as they get older. Really this is not likely to happen. A dumb young person usually becomes a dumb old person, without becoming better or worse.

Are you a smart old person? If you are, then good. You say you have been homeless for all these years, and your writing looks like the ramblings of a mental patient or a drug addict. So it does not look like you are a very good quality or functional person. Not because of your age but because of everything else. Hopefully I am wrong, but this is what it looks like.

Many army Veterans are homeless.

"Ramblings of a mental patient"? This person clearly just misunderstood our attitude about older people, maybe read some negative comments.

I don't think a mental patient would make this many cultural references. I just see an eccentric individual who was angry at what ended up being a misunderstanding.
We don't all have to be super stuck up and serious, you can use bombastic language and not be schizo.

That is true and is a sad situation. Many military veterans also have serious mental problems from PTSD and depression, which is a major cause of becoming homeless. There are programs to try to find good jobs for veterans when they come home. They can recieve a free college education. And with whatever skills they learned in their MOS, there may be very good jobs that are specifically related to skills that they have. Most people do not accidentally become homeless long term. It is usually a choice, and this choice most often is that they would rather stay outside doing as many drugs as they want instead of being sober and having a good job and a regular life.

I am not saying that this is what his situation is or what the reason is. But this simply is what is most common.
