no but you can FORCE it away. use ublock origin and copy paste the blacklist i made into the filters to be able to remove the bullshit AI overview that google forces. it also removes youtube's forced ads (at least until they fix it)

you can also use the ublacklist extension and use this blacklist of AI image generation websites to curate your google image results

Powerlifting 4 days a week, boxing 3 days a week, running 2 days a week, rucking 3 days a week — let's see just how far I can push my central nervous system till it breaks. I have enough testosterone and caffeine in my system to tear down the altars of false gods with my bare hands.

Hey guys, I'm going to create a little tag game for all my Christian and Bible-reading friends out there. I'd love to know a few more things about you! I'll go first!

Name: Cherry

How long you've been Christian (approx): 9 years

Favourite verse: And the grace of our Lord was exceeding abundant with faith and love which is in Christ Jesus. This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. 1 Timothy 1:14-15

Favourite book: Revelation

Currently reading: Exodus (and Hebrews, Revelation, and John in various Bible studies)

A helpful resource (if you have one): Filament Bible app - you need a QR code to get into it, but it has a bunch of really useful commentary on different verses and maps etc to help in study.

Name: Kay.

How long I've been Christian: 6 years (counting this one!)

Favourite Bible Verse: Psalm 27:4 (I don't have a solid favourite, too many to choose from!)

Favourite Book: Genesis/John.

Currently reading: My Bible reading-plan says 2 Samuel but I'm just reading randomly now, whenever I do.

A helpful resource: Grow. It's a Christian social media app. Free on play store. If I ever take a social media break she's my girl. It's filled with strictly Christ centred posts, pictures, polls, prayer requests, and random stuff you might wanna share with your family in Christ (though I am not very active here) it has been helpful as a replacement during my detox days. I've had it for more than 2 years, I think.

Tag list: @northernhealer @evukzsstiff @athiria @princesadejesus16 @hobbiefroggie @rigjuice777 @imjustanobody2024 @rockellex @kai-cheesecake @saboruva @aurynne @christianfics @trust-fall-of-grace @z1lyl1ly @professionallyhuman

How long I've been Christian: About a year and a half! I'm still a wee baby~

Favourite Bible Verse: Proverbs 31:25 - Strength and dignity are her clothing, and she laughs at the time to come.

Favourite Book: It's a toss between Judges, Job and Proverbs.

Currently reading: In the bible, I've been working through the book of Proverbs.

A helpful resource: For me. My husband is such a helpful resource~ but for everyone else. I'd definitely say the BibleProject!

How long I’ve been Christian: 11 years I think?

Favorite Bible Verse: NORTH WE HAVE THE SAME FAVORITE VERSE!! I like the NLT version of Proverbs 31:25 “She is clothed with strength and dignity, and she laughs without fear of the future.” :3

Favorite Book: Esther and 1 John!! I can’t choose lol

Currently Reading: 1 John with my summer community group!

A helpful resource: Uhmmm. I can’t think of anything at the moment but a community group is always a great resource for support, advice, and fellowship

Name: Rachel (Nickname Rocki)

How long you’ve been Christian: My answer to this is kind of long 😂 I grew up Catholic and have always know of Jesus my whole life. However, my relationship with Jesus really grew once I became Protestant and got baptized as an adult. To be honest, I don’t remember the exact date. But it was in 2024 that I was baptized. So, I would personally say I’ve been Christian for 2 years.

Favourite verse/verses: Oooh. I really like Matthew 6:25-27

“Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?

Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?

Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?” NIV Version

As someone who struggles with anxiety, I just love what Jesus is saying here. It’s a good reminder that God has everything under control, and that my life is incredibly valuable to Him.

Favourite book: I find Revelation fascinating personally, so I think that might be my favorite book! I also enjoy reading through Matthew.

Currently reading: I’ve been reading through Genesis all year with my Women’s Bible Study group, but that study recently ended. So I might read through Exodus next. Or I might go over some parts of my Genesis study. To be determined 😊

A helpful resource (if you have one): There is a website called Got Questions that I LOVE! It’s great for pretty much any questions you have! And they have an app also! Speaking of apps, I also enjoy the YouVersion Bible App! Great for having a Bible on the go, and for starting daily Bible reading plans on things you’re interested in! For example, I’m starting an 8 day plan on Evangelism.

Tag List: @scaremoonturkey @sparklingcurepeace @aesthetically-flora @proverbs31girlie @feastingonchrist @wisegirlandseaweedbrainforever @thatssewjesus + open tags as always 😊

Pen Name: Gravity

How long I've been Christian: I was baptized and confirmed as Catholic in 2023! Before this I can say that I was technically somewhat Christian, but was not living a Christian lifestyle, nor did I understand ANYTHING about Christianity. I love being Catholic :D

Favorite Verse: Psalm 23.

Favorite Book: Tobit or Ruth for the Old Testament, any of the Corinthians for the New Testament!

Currently Reading: I have been slowly reading the Bible and have just finished the Old Testament- right now I am reading the book of Matthew.

Helpful Resources:

I also use the Oremus App for my daily Bible readings, daily mass readings, and they also have the Rosary/Divine Mercy Chaplet available!

Another resource would be books! I have read a couple and some I am in the process of- I really liked 'Why Do Catholics Do That" and "Jesus and the Jewish Roots of Mary." Absolutely peak books!

All Christian Mutuals are welcome to hop in!

Here are a few tags anyway :)

@gaalaxsea @byzantine-death-machine @cleverqueen2 @margindoodles2407 @cheerfullycatholic @corvusherpestidae @become-mop @rosencatholic @acatholicrose @miriam-farish @angeltreasure @ell-arts

Name: byzantine death machine, slayer of darkness

How long I've been Christian:

Wanted to learn about God; started the Bible and got introduced to the Orthodox Church in late 2020

Attended first Liturgy in 2022

Finished most of the Bible in 2023, drawing out Psalm and Revelation for another 2 years

Started Catechumenate in 2024

Still currently on track for Baptism and Chrismation

So basically anywhere between 2-6 years take your pick :^]

Favorite Verse; These ones come to mind:

"Teach us to number our days, that our hearts may be bound with wisdom" Psalm 90

"But he who is greatest among you shall be your servant. And whoever exalts himself shall be humbled and he who humbles himself shall be exalted." Matthew 23

"but the Lord was not in the fire; and after the fire a gentle whisper." 1 Kings 19

Favorite Books: Tobit and Ruth are definitely top favorites of mine as well, but I'm also going to mention Job, Exodus, 2 Samuel, and Ecclesiastes for OT

For NT its the Four Gospels. The Gospels have had a very powerful effect on my heart and society as a whole

Currently Reading: Acts alongside a respective commentary by Archbishop Averky, and soon going to pick up The Path to Salvation by St Theophan the Recluse

Also have "On Resistance to Evil by Force" by Ivan Alexandrovich Ilyin on the backburner

Helpful resources:

Bible (Orthodox Study Edition recommended)

Your Local Parish

Jordanville Prayer Book (babby's first prayer book for orthobros 🙃)

Prayer Rope from local bookstore or monastery

Icon (Best to have is Pascha or Christ Pantocrator)

Православие календарь (Orthodox Calendar) app to follow along with the Liturgical Calendar

Best Spiritual Books: St Seraphim of Sarov Conversation with Motovilov, Brief Intro to Orthodox Spirituality by Mtrp. Nafpaktos Heirotheos and the Spiritual Writings of Archimandrite Seraphim Aleksiev

Notice these resources are not only listed by priority but are mostly action oriented because faith in Christ is an actionable, lived in reality.

The best thing you can do to live out your relationship with God is to ask God to transform you and help you live the faith, to attend services, to build a prayer habit that reflects the services, to stay and meet with fellow Christian people, and to remember at the end of the day what matters is not any head knowledge or piety you might display but rather it is the love you show for God, people, creation, and life itself.

Thanks for reading :]

Pockets of Grace in this World + The monks of New Skete integrate their Orthodox faith with raising, breeding, and training German Shepherds by viewing dogs as a testament to the sacredness of creation. They see the unconditional love, forgiveness, and connection they experience with their dogs as reflections of God's love, seamlessly weaving canine care into their monastic rhythm of prayer and work.

The New Skete monks’ path from Catholic to Orthodox: The small community — today comprising 10 monks and about the same number of adult German shepherds — was started by Franciscan friars who were seeking a more contemplative yet rooted spiritual structure than the Catholic orders were providing them, said Brother Marc. One of the founders — and now 82 — he directs the choir at New Skete together with Brother Luke.

They were inspired by the “explosion of wonderfulness” of the Second Vatican Council to return to ancient but simpler and more accessible practices, like those of the first ascetics in the Egyptian desert, from whom the name skete derives, and who also received pilgrims and performed other community services. The monks officially joined the Orthodox Church in America more than four decades ago; icons of male and female saints from Eastern and Western Christianity adorn the golden walls of the larger of the monastery’s two churches.

TAG YOUR MOOTS AND MAKE THEM EXPLAIN THEIR USERNAMES LORE

Starting with me:

Hyyl18 because when i was youngest i had a group in a random app with some friends and i didnt knew qhat username to use so i decided to create one with things i used to read since we were talking abt fanfic in this group so: Hot Yaoi Yuri Lemon +18 stuff (i was in my dirty era dont dare to judge me). Hyyl18 thats it. Now i use it everywhere yay

basically bards are important in my book series, and that was inspired from the bard yaskier from the Witcher, and I feel like it was something he'd say about himself so I went with that.

Your guy's lore is hilarious btw 🤣

uhhhh tbh i thought of mine on the spot, but i guess i liked the idea of stars being in my username (hence the starry part, also idk how i just realized it now but it could symbolize leo/need) and then i went "so what if i just.... added my favorite pjsk units to the rest of it" which is the vbs part and the 2500 part is nightcord (25 is also my favorite number)

so yeah :]

mooooooots

My username has been this in most places for a loooonnngggg time, the first bit was before my egg cracked tho hence the um… reluctance to be referred to with that part

Soup is a nice sounding word it feels good to say it (I actually thought of it bc on the way to school there's this one food waste bin that's been sat there fir months full of sludge and moldy food it's disgusting but everytime me and my friends walk past it we say bin soup and it's fun to say)

Idk secondhand seems to work with the rest and it kinda feels like it describes my personality a bit

@rsquared314 @enthusiastnightmare @cleaning-spray-offical @penny--offical @spookthelilguy @rara3swhimsy :]

so, r, squared times pi, which is 3.141592.... i use this username across websites and if anytime its taken, which it rarely is, i add an additional digit of pi

@milkisanabomination @whoatemybread @inquisitive-pseudointellectual @thisistheend1 @shdwstorm

mine is a quote from The Tournament at Gorlan by John Flanagan. the original quote was, "milk is a near abomination" but i decided that was too long.

i also just dont like milk. prob cause i lactose intolerant or somthn

The snake, Onyx, was originally the size of a house.

I'm a writer, and I will be until the day I die :3

TAGS!

Thanks for tagging!

My nickname: Gravity Falls inspired lol, and that is because I have a twin. Gravity plus silly = Gravitilly :)

Blood in the desert, soul in the snow. For I am a Byzantine warrior. A Varangian maniac with a thirst for blood quenched only by the hunger for virtue and the consolation of Christ.

In my path is the reign of destruction against the creatures of the dark who lurk within the shadows. And the reign of destruction... doesn't stop
