The Gay Guide to Ditching Religion, Avoiding Reacherhood, and Navigating the Selfie World

This week is a doozy and at the end we completely loose it and almost unalive our self laughing.  Quick side note, call our voicemail and tell us what's making you not well. 

First things first, we had to talk about our viral Tik-Tok Video where Jim goes off on religion (not actual christianity). 

We believe that religion is misguided and harmful, and that those who believe in God are misguided and likely hate others. We also mocked certain aspects of Catholicism, such as the concept of transubstantiation and the idea that unbaptized children go to purgatory or limbo. We argued that those who worship God are missing out on fun and joy in life, and that God would be disappointed in their actions and choices. Overall, we were critical of religion. 

We move on to a more serious subject. The settler and the reacher in any relationship. Bobby recently saw a post on Reddit about someone who was trying to meet someone else for over a month and was constantly texting them, even though they weren't responding. Jim thinks this person was likely a "pathetic little twink gay boy" and that this behavior is indicative of a dynamic in relationships called "settlers" and "reachers."

In this dynamic, one person in the relationship is the "settler," meaning they are considered more attractive or desirable compared to their partner, while the other person is the "reacher," meaning they are less attractive or desirable and constantly shower their partner with attention and affection.

I think it's important to recognize this dynamic and try to avoid being a "Reacher" in relationships. Instead, it's better to play it cool and not overly text or shower your partner with attention.

Jim talks about the origins of a selfie. 

Selfies have become ubiquitous on social media, and many people seem to love them. But are they really worth all the hype?

Jim despises selfies, citing their annoyance with the proliferation of these photos on social media. Bobby suggest that selfies may originally have been used as a way to prove one's presence at a particular location. For example, someone might take a selfie before heading out into dangerous territory or while participating in an important event. Alternatively, people might take selfies as proof of being alive after losing contact with friends or family during an emergency situation.

Both Bobby & Jim express frustration with those who constantly post selfies online and wonder why we can't just start speaking out against this behavior. Perhaps when enough people do so, it will finally give pause to those who are addicted to self-promotion through photo updates!
