Killswitch Engage got a new singer but they did that early in their career. Then that guy had to leave and the old singer came back. Howard Jones was with the band for nearly a decade before Leech came back. Then you have bands like AC/DC that continued after Scott died but that was a year after Highway to Hell, or Alice in Chains, Layne when he passed away and they brought in William. Other bands like the Doors just changed their name when members died to avoid legal issues. Sometimes bringing in someone new works, sometimes it doesn't
 
Idk if this is MATI worthy but it made me laugh. This woman was gifted a croissant-shaped lamp by her sister and one day she noticed ants all over it and realized it's actually a real croissant that is just covered in resin that they put an LED light in.

And if you're wondering, yes this is a real product made in Japan.

$100 dollars for a croissant with an LED light inside. They also sell other bread.

It's insane that she ate that. For all she knows it could have been flakes of tasty asbestos.
 
It's not true.

This is fake. The art on the left is a redesign someone did on a bus ride. The tweet is framing it as something else, usually Sweet Baby Inc tampering which happens, but didn't happen in this instance.
wish it was seems to good to be same design art issue as last crash bandico design art issue
 
Just out of curiosity what exactly draws you to the book of Enoch is it the whole nephilim are aliens thing is there actually anything in the book of Enoch about salvation
In regards to Josh. I asked him to do an audiobook one superchat at a time because someone did a similar thing with Sam Hyde and the book of Matthew, and gave suggestions of John(my favorite new testament book), Hosea(My favorite Old testament book), and threw out "Or Enoch if you want to do something unusual." He said he didn't mind and to choose any of them. But in the chat there were a few people that got upset that Enoch was even mentioned and saying it wasn't biblical, despite nobody saying it was. So next stream I said, "It made a few people upset to even mention Enoch, so how do you feel about that?" He said "Sure it is up to you." Then the next stream $2 per verse I started the Josh audiobook project.

In regards to why I personally like the book of Enoch. I feel an intense aversion to what I consider "boomer christianity" where they think the Bible was a channeled book and claiming books like Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings are demonic, while they have no idea of the rich tradition, theology, and history of Christian traditional literature. So they have no idea about the literature surrounding the life of Jesus and how it impacted the early Christian church and movement. The Jews of the second temple period and the early Christians all believed in the general story of Enoch. It is a polemic against the Sumarian Apcalu flood myth, and gives background to why sin proliferated on the earth between the verses of Genesis 6:4 and 5. So Enoch the Shepard of Hermas and similar literature are important to the Christian community yet are left behind because of misunderstanding and bad theology.


Oh and I forgot to answer the second part of your question. Yes kinda. It predicts the coming Messiah and what his role is in dealing with the sins and consequences of the Watchers.
 
I just checked Temu and Aliexpress and was not able to find croissant lamps but it seems it was a popular search phrase because the search suggestion came up immediately.
I wonder if the original company flagged those listings. But then again I highly doubt it considering no one can stop China from making knockoffs. Even big companies like Nike, Apple and Louis Vuitton haven't been able to stop Chinese counterfeiters for many years.

Regarding Enoch and readings in general:
Josh can do what he wants, he has the final say. However I think he is overestimating the amount of people who hate reading Enoch. I don't know what flow there is in the superchats, it has always been "Hey look at this" or "Please read this".
The pay off has always been at the end when the audiobook is compiled and produced. So if you don't mind Josh reading things in the superchat end segment just leave a like or reply and give your opinion so Josh's stance is informed: Should Josh stop reading superchat things? Is it just scripture? Is it just Enoch?
would Josh do an audiobook of the bible for Gumroad?
 
I watch mati backwards and just got to the section 230 stuff and I think it does make sense as corporate speech. I do data base stuff and if my algorithm generated false information to a business they'd sue our ass, but I guess that's very different as we have no user published data. So it's actually not the same at all.

Howdy Null, I'm thrilled you enjoyed the Hawaiian Pidgin Bible post.

For what its worth the Bible Gateway website that superchats keep linking you to has a translation drop down menu and one of the options is Hawaiian Pidgin.

Here's another funny passage, I like it because it makes St. Philip sound like a mafia goon.

Additionally, for your convenience, I've attached both the Hawaiian Pidgin Bible (which they call Da Good and Spesho Book), and the Nigerian Pidgin Bible (IMO not as funny, but somewhat more intelligible), as well as The Word on the Street which is what you get when an old white British man thinks he can make scripture appealing to ghetto niggers.

Now you have a selection of amusing translations to choose from so you can fulfill the superchat requests in a way the audience will enjoy.

Peace be with you.

Jar-Jar Jesus is a funnier character than we've had before.
 
Josh I gotta thank you. Nothing "red-pills" people in my life more than sharing that statistic that most child SA is done by children themselves now. People connect the dots pretty quickly after hearing that.
