![]() So breaking that cycle of busyness was the first month. Back of church and have people say, oh, we miss you. So January was a month of fighting the desire to come back in the office, the desire to slip in the. The first month off in January, it took me a month to realize two things - one, how tired I was and, two, how addicted I was to my normal schedule. The plan was to get back on a regular rest regimen. The plan was to get back working out regularly. WESLEY: So the plan was to get all this stuff ready for my conference of exams because I'm in my Ph.D. WESLEY: Well, you know, there's always a difference between what you planned and what actually went down. If the pastor is not in the pulpit, people aren't going to log on and listen.ĬHANG: So tell me, what did you do during the couple of months you were on this sabbatical? Just tell me how it went. And so there's this fear that if the pastor's not in the pulpit, no one's coming. And as such, even today, African American clergy hold a different level of responsibility and authority within the church. If you trace our rooting back into slavery, you'll find that the pastor was really one of the most revered and respected persons and one that the congregation had an absolute dependence on. And I think it traces back to the role the preacher and the pastor played in an African American church and community. Your Baptists, your COGIC, your different varieties of Pentecostal and AME and AME Zion. It is absolutely unheard of in predominantly African American traditions. WESLEY: Well, Ailsa, if I can put a little racial spin on it, it is very common practice in our Euro-Caucasian Christian denominations and even within the Catholic traditions to grant that time off. It's not a profession that always ends well, and I'm grateful to have a congregation that said, we want your story to end well.ĬHANG: Well, how common is it for clergy to take time off, to take sabbaticals like this? I can't tell you how many pastors leave ministry or even commit suicide or die in the pulpit. WESLEY: So the congregation was very open and accepting, and I think they saw the long-term benefit of giving breaks and rest as opposed to burning a pastor out. But strangely, the message resonated with so many members who wished they were in a position to take that kind of time off and rest as well. WESLEY: So, you know, I was afraid to share. What happens if they're all right without me? What if they find out, yeah, you know, we really don't need this guy? If I'm gone, what happens if the church doesn't survive without me? What happens if membership goes down? And let's be honest, what happens if people stop giving and then the budget's affected and then we've got to start laying off? I was the scared one, thinking to myself one of two things would happen. WESLEY: You know, I think they were more willing than I was. Well, how did your congregation react when you first said, hey, I need some time off? And I began to wonder, why is this becoming so hard when it was so natural? And why am I not enjoying it anymore? And that just began a journey of self-reflection of kind of realizing I don't feel as close to the God I talk about as I want to be.ĬHANG: Yeah. Shift the movements around and cross my fingers and pray that no one would hear something they already heard that sermon writing would start on Tuesday and by Saturday, I still had nothing on the page. I reached the point where, sadly, Ailsa, I was picking up old sermons and trying to find a way to give them new titles and. And in the sermonic field, as a pastor, there's a lot of creativity required of you. One was starting to lose that joy and that energy for something that I loved. There are a few signature moments that let me know something was a little bit off. WESLEY: Well, I think it began probably a year before announcing the sabbatical. ![]() And I asked him when and how he started to feel that distance. And when I spoke with him in December 2020, a year after he had announced his leave, he reflected on his 30 years of preaching and how he had started to feel distant from God and the congregation he served. ![]() And I need you to know, secondly, I feel very distant from God.ĬHANG: Reverend Wesley's sabbatical happen to coincide with the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. This ain't nothing but intermission, baby. A year earlier, Reverend Wesley had announced to his congregation that he was taking a leave of absence. He's a senior pastor of the historic Alfred Street Baptist Church in Alexandria, Va. And today we're revisiting a conversation we first aired back in December 2020 with Reverend Howard John Wesley. Well, faith leaders are not exempt from this. At some point, we all need a break or a sabbatical - you know, some time to recharge our batteries and think about a different way to approach life.

Afterwards, Everly reconciles with Maisey, who was under the protection of one of Everly's enslaved neighbors (who was eventually killed). One of the Sadist's compatriots, the Masochist, attempts to slash Maisey before Everly kills him with a single headshot. Everly is finally subdued, but manages to kill Taiko after his soldiers have left by stabbing him with his own sword. When the sniper shoots a rocket-propelled grenade into the apartment, Taiko beheads him in anger, believing that he killed Everly, though she survives. The final surge is from a group of what appears to be specialized troops or police officers.Įventually, Edith is killed by a sniper hired by Taiko from the building across from the apartment on the orders of Taiko to punish Everly. As Everly fights off the numerous attacks, some of the foes become more outlandish originally they are simply armed thugs, but the Sadist's team appear in costumes and plan for extravagant tortures.

He has her tied up and placed in a cage while he taunts and tortures her with battery and sulfuric acid, along with other corrosive liquids, at one point pouring water into her eyes while she screams in fear, believing it is acid. Meanwhile, Everly attempts to contact her mother Edith ( Laura Cepeda) and young daughter Maisey (Aisha Ayamah) to save them from other henchmen of Taiko and get them out of the situation alive, but her mother is being stubborn and refuses to leave without her.Īfter managing to evade Taiko's attackers for an extended period of time, Everly is captured by The Sadist ( Togo Igawa), an assistant of Taiko's. Taiko then begins a sadistic game of toying with Everly, dispatching numerous hired killers and offering the other prostitutes in the building (which he presumably owns) a bounty if they manage to kill her. Although Taiko expected his men to kill her easily after torturing her, Everly retrieves a gun she had hidden in the toilet and manages to kill all of her attackers.

(But, hey, fun fact: Couching offensiveness in “No offense, but…” or calling it a “joke” doesn’t stop it from being offensive, and other people are not unreasonable for being upset by it.)īut, well… that’s none of my business, right? The “But That’s None Of My Business” meme is pretty much the personification of that person you know who thinks that saying “No offense, but…” or “Relax, it’s just a joke!” cancels out the offensiveness of whatever offensive thing they just said - which means that by their logic, you’re being unreasonable if you’re upset by what they said. Ninety-nine percent of the time, it seems to be used as an excuse to say mean or shame-y things without having to deal with the consequences, and that… kind of bothers me. I’ll be honest: I’m actually not a huge fan of this particular meme. Much like Pokemon, memes do occasionally evolve - and “But That’s None Of My Business” seems to have leveled up, so to speak.

None of my Business Meme Kermit the Frog is a puppet character of frogs that first appeared on television in 1955, on Sam and Friends. It took off from there, with both an Instagram account dedicated to these memes and a few hashtags on Twitter providing a steady stream of images of Kermit drinking tea while stating some pretty judgmental opinions.

So, one blessing and a curse for all Instagram stalkers is that how often someone scrolls through your profile still remains a bit of a mystery. And while apps like Reports PRO may give you the information you want, there’s still some ambiguity around how legit this data is and how it came to be discovered in the first place. There are many websites and third-party applications that claim to help you see your Instagram guests, but we’ll touch on this issue later in the article. So there’s no official way to see who views your profile. Ultimately, the algorithm behind who views your profile the most and when remains unknown. The hard truth is that just like Facebook, Instagram does not allow you to see the guests on your page. “The answer is, the people that show up on that list are not the people that stalk you the most – it is actually based on your activity and the people that you are closest to,” she said. While speaking to The Verge back in 2018, product lead for Instagram Home, Julia Gutman shut this scenario down. Of the bat, one hypothesis may be that your top viewers are the ones who stalk your profile the most. And while Instagram won’t give you that information, it does detail how many people viewed it and who those people are. In regards to your Instagram Stories, you may be wondering who viewed it first. So, while you can’t see who’s trying to stalk you, this is a way to see who wants to look at someone you know. Within this experiment, you can see how many people click your significant other’s username, in a failed attempt to look at their profile.

Instead, you can use the “Ask a question” option on Instagram, with your significant other’s username written in the “no” part of this feature. The app includes an option to see your “secret admirers,” which are people “who are not following you but are active on your profile.” And for the price of $4.99, we attempted to see who our secret admirers were and a list of over 150 Instagram users popped experiment gone wrong□ #viral #fyp #instagramexperiment ♬ Nobody - Mitski Some of the benefits also include a “detailed account analysis,” “story viewers analysis,” and “tracking multiple accounts.” And in order to get all of this information once a month, it costs about $9.99. For example, this app allows them to to see who “anonymously viewed” their profile. If you don’t want to go scrolling through your photos to see who interacts with them, this app does show which Instagram users like and comment on your posts the most.Īccording to its website, Reports PRO allows Instagram lovers to get all the stalking-data they need. While it may sting a little bit to see that one of your former friends or acquaintances decided to remove you, it can still be beneficial to know – in case you want to unfollow them back. And this also goes both ways, as the app shows which of your followers aren’t following you back.Īnother perk is that the app will tell you if someone unfollows you. For example, apps like Reports PRO tracks the followers that you are or aren’t following you back. ![]() You can send mail to inmates in Lubbock County but you need follow their guidelines carefully if you want your friend or loved one to get your correspondence.
