I want you to roam around with all the birds that sing and then finally come back to me to hear my song. With that much of liberty that I would endow upon you, boasts of my own certainty that you'll soon grow tired and exhausted from drinking from stagnant little ponds. Your soul has been forever seeking something that flows like a river, constant and fresh. That, my beloved, is the reason that eventually you return to my little nest. With the little that I've to give you, I give of my heart, there's no lie to it. While others sell their borrowed ideas, I give you my very truth, moulded with love and tenderness, blended with both laughter and tears, carved by inspiration and some mystical spark. What I offer you is my all, leaving nothing behind. A home, for your tired soul to rest...

In the midst of our human vulnerabilities, the words of 2 Corinthians 12:9 echo a profound truth: "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." These words, spoken by the Apostle Paul, invite us to a radical shift in perspective. Instead of viewing our weaknesses as hindrances, we are called to see them as opportunities for the transformative power of Christ to manifest in our lives.
When we boast in our weaknesses, we are not celebrating our shortcomings but acknowledging our need for a Savior. It is an act of surrender, an admission that we cannot navigate life's challenges alone. In our humility, Christ's power takes center stage, bringing forth resilience, wisdom, and endurance that surpass our natural capabilities.
Heavenly Father, in our moments of weakness, we find solace in Your promise that Your grace is indeed sufficient for us. Help us to boast not in our strength but in the transformative power of Christ that rests upon us. May we embrace our vulnerabilities, confident that Your strength is made perfect in our weakness. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

Boasting is the voice of pride in the heart of the strong. Self-pity is the voice of pride in the heart of the weak.

THIS is what Pokemon GO looked like in my area in 2018:
youtube
2018 iPhone Pokemon Go looking "rural"
THIS is what Pokemon Go looks like NOW (2024) where I live:
Well, I've been testing this for years, so there's definitively an ample amount of data that proves there's a group of saboteurs that target South Weymouth Massachusetts. There's also that no infamous incident in February 2020 on Reddit where they were bragging about sabotaging my area, and full on fighting with me. They even actively got me banned 3 times in 2020, and I had to change my identity, and pretend I was a dude from 2020-2022, and even changed my name 4 times. #PokemonGo
There's some evidence 🤔 it's connected to an Ingress beef as well. I've had a list of suspects as well. They seemed to have originally been targeting an Admin in my area, perhaps out of envy. They also seemed to have confused me with said admin, or thought I was his underling. That's not how we do things in Weymouth. We're not master & slaves, we're neighbors, n each player has their own unique areas of specialties.
Also, the god level players in Greater Boston live in Weymouth, not just masters of raids, getting Hundo, Shundo, n rare shiny Legendary Pokémon, but whom r naturally blessed w luck, somehow. Or, they're the very best GBL & PVP Players. I know who they r, we all know each other, do raids, share tips, help newbies, n coach people to achieve. We also cultivate tolerance, talking stuff out, n safety. We've had some bad experiences here n there, so we like women players n kids to be safe. We also interact w players in other towns, n car pooling is very popular.
As far as game play goes, we're good.
But, I'm talking about #NianticWayfarer
Because the vultures are REAL!
I've had to figure out, n navigate these punks. They appear to have OCD, n reverse psychology issues, n do stuff out of spite. There's a group of them (including on Reddit) n they take screen shots, probably have extra fake accounts, n they login to Wayfarer , n scour Wayfarer for stuff in Weymouth. Especially in South Weymouth, where we live. This has been going on since late 2019, when Wayfarer 1st went live.
We used to think it was so odd that all the best advice we dug up from Ingress players, as well as resources, for the new Wayfarer rules was not working out.
So, it was a common excuse of "lazy reviewers" or "lazy voters". But, I kept getting accused of being an "Abuser", and a "Racist". FOR PLAYING POKÉMON GO??? FOR SUBMITTING A WAYPOINT TO WAYFARER???
WHO DOES THAT MAKE SENSE TO???
But, I noticed that while posting inside our local Discord server, for Wayfarer, if I told everyone WHICH locations I was submitting, they'd all fail, and quickly.
But, when I submitted stuff, and DID NOT TELL the Discord server thread which ones I was doing, I noticed those usually went through.
This was a very consistent pattern. But, everyone in the server was still very status quo oriented like "it's just lazy voters".
youtube
THEN IT HAPPENED!
IN February 2020, they started bragging! IN PUBLIC! ON REDDIT! N THEY CALLED ME "AN ABUSER". THEY ALSO THREATENED TO BAN ME, WHICH THEY ACTUALLY DID.
Here in Weymouth, we coordinate, n we can be very motivated & diligent, including myself. I coached people to get really good at this. I also took much of my strategy skills I learned from playing Ingress, to strategies on Wayfarer. [ Another Ingress thingy of mine. ]
These punks also would sabotage my Google maps account. They'd move my Google points out into the ocean, or the wrong locations. This is how evil they are. They also smeared me using a fake account in Discord. They know all my social media using my BlackUniGryphon names on them. I actually never even did anything to them. I've never seen them face to face. They r just vicious. Someone also hacked my original BlackUniGryphon Reddit account n I can't even recover it because they changed the email address. They also made a Reddit account using my Google email, n got it banned for really bad behavior, n there's nothing I can do to fix it, n it gets notifications for explicit gay sex stuff, that I can't even turn off. I didn't even know they made that account until long after it was banned, because I was busy XP grinding to Level up in Pokémon Go.
This is just SOME of the stunts they pulled.
But, to show u an example of the nonsense they group vote on, n coordinate as saboteurs, the reasons they give r literally the exact SAME, including from OTHER PLAYERS I KNOW that aren't even my account.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
These r all submitted around the same time n from different accounts of different players, n all in Weymouth. SOUTH WEYMOUTH actually.
Notice they cited "Rejection Criteria" as "Temporary or Seasonal Display", or "Generic Business". Another bogus one is "Mismatched Location"
Notice how they're all the same?
They pick the same reasons, to intentionally sabotage it. Other times these locations were submitted, they'd use different coordinated rejection reasons that were exactly the same reason, as tho they pre-determined what the rejection reason would be. Like "BAD Photo" or "Orientation of the Photo", or "Blurry Photo", or "Racist", or "Abuse" or "Unsafe".
This time the saboteurs chose "Generic Business" or "Temporary".
Also interesting to note is, we haven't submitted anything in months except for 1 guy I know, and he gave up for a long while in Weymouth. I haven't submitted anything in months, other than Appeals...
Well, we did a batch, n u can see the dates showing January, then placed them on hold. Of those batches we did, we told no one publicly, just ourselves.
And, since the vultures were not on the prowl, they started getting approved. These were locations that were the stubborn ones. The ones that obviously go through in other towns. And, things getting approved started creating new PokéGyms as well. Plural.
So, after a while it's hard to keep it quiet, and we bragged a lil bit.
Well..... the vultures noticed, n went to Wayfarer, n sabotaged the last of the batch in Voting.
I've gone through this process over & over for years. All predictable patterns at this point.
Bur, the stuff that we, or I, couldn't get through in 2019-2022, is pretty much LIVE & in the Niantic games now. We know IITC MOBILE, we know Ingress, we know Wayfarer. We know how to change our writing styles, we know how to adapt. We know long term strategy. I even use decoys as a method to test if the vultures are active. I'll submit something intentionally knowing it's got a lower chance of passing (because I know the rules from the older systems) n when the vultures r out, it'll get rejected quickly. But, there's times when my decoys passed through. Which shows that it's subjective, and not objective.
Like I wouldn't expect a bland generic coffee shop, or plain or pizza takeout, to go through. In my opinion, it should be a special & unique one, or ethnic one. So, objectively that shouldn't really go through. But, ones that actually SHOULD COUNT N QUALIFY SHOULD go through. But, if it was in Weymouth it wouldn't, but in other towns it would, n did.
When it comes to being a hateful person, there's only so long u can keep that up, because it's toxic & draining. So, they often give up, n stop logging in to sabotage the area because we don't submit anything.
It's basically like applying principles from Algebra, or mathematics. Like subtraction is addition in reserve. Or, division is multiplication in reverse. Or, things like factors & variables. If u get more & more data that shows a result, we can plot that data.
We can find: trends, averages, rates, coronation.
And even tho originally there were no jerks in my face telling me they were sabotaging me/us, they eventually DID brag on Reddit. They also expressed their motives, which were often an attachment to this idea of weilding power over others, a drive to feel superior, or righteous. Or psychologically weaponizing rules. If u gotta behave like that to pretend u r the hood guys, n I'm the bad guy, u r seriously sick in the mind.
But, even BEFORE they bragged about it, I could tell something was up just by analyzing the patterns in the results, n treating as experiments using the scientific method.
I could think working backwards & forward, like Algebra using variables and factors.
I could also change the way I wrote my blurbs to see which tested better.
Despite the haters, I (and my Community) have turned a desolate place into a thriving one.
Anyways, I won't be mentioning names. There was at least 1 player from Reddit that we smoothed stuff over with.....
But, I won't be naming them. I still will do raids with naughty players because I find they can overcome prejudice by exercising tolerance. I also believe in talking stuff out. But, let's be clear, some people actually r sick in the head, n WANT TROUBLE. If they talked it out, they wouldn't have strife, drama, n trouble because it's something they feed on.
I've also noticed that, sometimes some people can suddenly change. It does happen. N there's no logical explanation. Sometimes, not everything is logical.
U also need to be flexible, but also not end up inside a trap of some sort, mentally, metaphorically, energetically, egotistical, pridefully, ideologically, or otherwise.
There's no 1 set way of doing anything, n no 1 definitively correct method or WAY of accomplishing it.
No good deed goes unpunished.
U could do everything 100% perfectly flawless, n still get screwed. Because it's not actually about being right. N that's WHY it stings.
Tumblr media
But, get stung enough times, n u get thicker skin, or u don't even feel it. It's just a number.

I coached so many players through this same mayhem. Remember, it's NOT REALLY ABOUT YOURSELF, IT'S FOR THE COMMUNITY. YOUR PRIDE MEANS ACTUALLY VERY LITTLE....
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
But, let's keep it real, the BRAGGING is built into the game... so, u should show ur accomplishments....
I honestly wouldn't have even cared.... but, those vulture made me into this.
HATERS CAN KISS IT!!!!

你不知道我是谁!
Anyways, it turns out YOU DON'T WHO WHO I AM!

May i present to you this incorrect quote inspired by Andrew Tate & Greta Thunberg 😄?
Joffrey Baratheon ✅ @SansaStarkofWinterfell I have 33 horses. My black stallion can circle the Riverlands in a day. My TWO grey Dornish horses can perform the most artistic of water dances. This is just the start. Please provide your room number (haha because you're our hostage, get it? 😂) so I can send a complete list of my horse collection and their respective "enormous work for the servants" and "pollution of the realm".
Sansa Stark of Winterfell ✅ Yes, please do enlighten me. Send me a raven at [email protected]
(Edit: Why did I search the emoji library for checkmarks when there's no Westerosi Twitter in this AU? 😆 Or do you think there are people signing letters with wrong names everyday? Wait no, this makes total sense, in this case the seals would be the checkmarks (until some cough stupid ruler cough one day gives them out to everyone and suddenly the rich Lords and Ladies have a lot more fun😂👌))

Sometimes when you talk about how much money you make you can make other people feel jealous because they don’t see themselves secure in their faith to know who is the source of provision. I know other’s weaknesses isn’t our responsibility but love has a way of leading people toward His grace, not our own sufficiency. When money is your happiness in any way, even a little bit, it makes a difference in how people see you as a Christian. And you always want to promote hope for God working on their behalf for His glory, not make them feel like they should pursue where you are in life.

“I have my life together and you should too”. “I own a car and my own house” “I have a job”
Those type of people deserve to have a giant rock fall over into their house. I hope your car gets totalled. I hope that nice job falls through. I hope you end up poor as dirt.
Stop flaunting your bougie ass lifestyle when theres people struggling out here and have no choice.

Try analogous correspondence like the way end with and make one word and actualize a torus of unified energy so if to end its fatal to and at the exact time cause of as heard one word for example if I said the on word the listener hears both end and and as one word then asks which one but I meant both as one corresponded analogy so if to end it'll and because I meant both as one word makes a torus if I want to make believe it to be as so
Would that be polymorphipractisiseism? Idk wtffffffactual
Also torus is a doughnut-shaped surface generated by a circle rotated about an axis in its plane that does not intersect the circle. 2. : a smooth rounded anatomical protuberance (as a bony ridge on the skull) a supraorbital torus. So the example practicality of continuiom with end into and as going into a infinite time zone of back and forth which makes sense cause I display that to be of beholding fathoming legitimizated wordprac which is astounding to fathom anyhow all my original working of philosophies boredom study topicing
Philosophy 102 over 9000% !@#$ - annej

Victor acted with Brighton Repertory Company and joined the cricket club as 'Captain Barker', but he left Elfreda in 1926. He joined the National Fascisti movement, and lived at its headquarters in London, training recruits and boasting of his past: street-fighting with 'reds'. He named himself as 'Colonel' in 1928, opening a café with his new partner, an actress.
Tumblr media
When the café went bankrupt he was prosecuted for fraud and this led to his discovery as a woman in Brixton Prison. He was convicted of perjury – false information on the marriage certificate – and sentenced to nine months in the women's prison at Holloway. After his release, he lived as a manservant and was later prosecuted for theft.
