I would ask you what you think the canon of scripture is and how it came about. Sure people have beliefs about many things, not all of them are objectively true though.

I will assume that you truly believe this. The Catholic Church strictly forbids praying “TO” saints and other such things. What the church teaches is that one should ask the saints and other such things to pray “FOR” us. Most Christian’s are more than happy to pray for you, the saints and such are the same, just not physically present. You can find more in depth explanations online. wow, I will hopefully remember to pray for your soul. Everything in your post is wrong. I would be happy to discuss this you some place other than here because it would take me a while to try and correct all the problems in your post.

Unfortunately, I am convinced of the idea that Christ established a church and the Catholic Church, under the Roman Pontiff is that church. Thus I have to figure things out with this baseline.

I could be game for this.

I would love one, but I know I don’t have the ability to give myself one as thorough as needed. Perhaps as many licks as I can give myself and then some icy hot to do the rest? @spanky, you got a number of licks I should aim for?

At work I’ve had an attitude issue, nothing too major, I don’t think anyone notices but me. However, this week my attitude has gotten a whole lot worse, to the point that I legitimately feel that an adjustment is warranted. Not sure exactly what I want to do about it. Would appreciate some input on a punishment.

I’m doing a bit of rethinking on this whole thing. Instead of breaking the wall I hit every time, perhaps I should go around instead. More info soon.

To do list for 2-23-2022 Thing to do Did I actually do it? Wake up by Noon Yes Make my bed before work. No Brush my teeth before work. Yes Do 30 “need more…discipline” push-ups. No Get to work on time. Yes Workout Yes Take a shower. No Brush teeth before bed. ??? Get to bed by 4AM ??? Failure to complete a task will add 5-10 additional push-ups the following day. Failure to complete a task may also earn an additional penalty. Tasks completed: 4 Tasks failed: 3 Tasks TBD: 2 Penalty push-ups earned: 20 Total of push-ups done today: 0 Total of push-ups needed for today: 30 Difference between the two above: 30 Daily push-up number: 20 Tomorrows total: 70 Notes from today: I had a half way decent day, would have taken a shower at the gym had I remembered my towel and wash cloth. I failed to do any push-ups today, so now begins the debt I was semi hoping for. I will update tomorrow about when I went to bed and if I brushed my teeth.

I have been dreaming about a big helping to get my life in order, by creating the structure that I so desperately yearn for. I have finally come to the point that I am going to do that work for myself. I am going to be posting here, hopefully, daily for a while to go over what my schedule for the day was supposed to be and how it actually turned out. I hope that having to tell “someone” about what I did and didn’t do during the day will be the needed kick in the pants to get things going in the right direction. I am currently working on a basic schedule for a fairly typical week. When I have that done to my liking I will post it for general reference. Time to cover some of the general ideas I have for this, 1. Improved dental hygiene, yeah I need to get in the habit of brushing my teeth twice a day at least. Mouthwash and flossing are also on the list. 2. General cleaning, I need to get back in the habit of making my bed every day and get a handle on my dishes. Luckily I just started a new laundry routine that really seems to be working. I also need to do the standard house cleaning of my apartment. 3. Working out, I am currently working out with an old work colleague twice a week. He is a gym rat and I am super thankful to have him helping me. We are both separated from the Military(American), him the Marines and myself, the Army, so we share bond through that. I want to get one more workout during the week to make it three times a week. 4. Discipline, I am going to do “need more…discipline” push-ups everyday. I will have a set number that I have to do daily as a base, but can earn more for failing to meet standard the previous day. If I fail to do all of the required push-ups for the day, they will carryover to the next day, being added to that days total. I will not be able to do extras one day, so I can do less the next. I would be interested in hearing if anyone has any mantra with exercise ideas. 5. Discipline part 2, as needed I will write lines for failing to meet standard. Other punishments are possible and will be doled out when appropriate. If some has ideas, please say so. I feel like this post is a bit confusing, but I hope as I post about how my day went , things will become more clear. As I come up with more concise ways to put things I will update this post. Edit: Here is my schedule/to do list for 2-23-2022. I will post a semi-completed version tomorrow. To do list for 2-23-2022 Thing to do Did I actually do it? Wake up by Noon Make my bed before work.

I have been talking with people recently and it has reminded me of my fantasies involving wedgies and being towel whipped. I was not an athlete in High School and moved to an online program fairly early. But, I would like to have someone give me a good wedgie, like lift me off the ground by my underwear or they rip before that point. I would also like to get whipped by a towel. Both of these things sound like fun in principle and I would like to have it be a reality at least once. Would be really cool to work out with someone in their private gym and in the changing room with showers be on the receiving end of these things and maybe more. Anyone have thoughts on this?

Everyone has one and depending upon where you go, you’ll “run into” others.

*EDITS* at bottom, marked and numbered* Does anyone here know how this lifestyle is categorized in terms of Catholic moral theology? Right now I am seriously struggling with this. I could do the research and honestly need to but, am scared to know the answer because I have the gut feeling that I won’t like it a whole lot. I should also note that I am of the more traditional notion as a recent convert and just recently found a relatively close TLM offering that I am planning to attend regularly. I would like to go to a priest and get some guidance on this subject but, honestly I don’t have the nerve and am embarrassed about discussing this lifestyle with most people who are not already initiated into it. I hope this makes sense and I apologize, I just needed to put my thoughts to proverbial paper and get some different opinions. Perhaps someone else here has done the work and is willing to help another brother out. Momento Mori *Edit #1*: Just recently thought about Gnosticism and this lifestyle, specifically the idea that gnostics challenged the value of the body. The basic argument I can come up with in this regard is: 1. The body is good. 2. We are our bodies. 3. The AB/DL lifestyle conflicts with the body. 4. Therefore, the AB/DL lifestyle is disordered. Now, I don’t know for sure if this argument actually holds up. The question that comes to mind is what type of “change” does the AB/DL lifestyle ask of the body? Certain changes are generally not problematic, like hair color, nail color, haircut, and clothing style. Changing one’s gender on the other hand is generally seen as problematic. The important question here is, “Is age an “unalterable” characteristic of the human person?” This question can be better refined but I think it paints the broad brush of my thoughts right now. I don’t think the argument works at the end of the day, but I need to think about and refine the reason why. This thought hit my mind and I thought I would share and see what feedback it might bring. *EDIT 2* Why don’t I quit cold turkey? I have tried a few times and have failed each time. I would say it is the binge-purge cycle that others have talked about. I don’t want to live in the extreme ends of that cycle. My goal is to learn to live with this part of me and live in harmony with it. This lifestyle is not completely bad, false, and ugly, I just needs to tease out what things are good, true, and beautiful so I can trash the rest.

Thank you so much. I wish I was more outgoing. I am just a loner. I would like to chat with you, however you prefer. I really appreciate it. I use my phone and this site is not particularly mobile friendly, especially for those who are neither technically gifted or neanderthals. So, here is preferable to on site direct message. If you prefer a different service like discord, we can direct message and figure it out.

@Max PuppyI would like to meet up with you at some point. I will be free sometime during the week between Christmas and New Years. I can let you know when I do. I would like to know you a little better because I liked what I saw in your profile, but I want more. I theoretically like spanking and discipline in general, but haven’t had someone to dish it out to me. If you aren’t a fan of this, that is okay too. I would find it really cool to change each other’s diapers, I have never been changed nor changed someone else.

@Max Puppy I am about an hour east of Columbus. But I hope we can chat.
