I love this. It's like our secret calling. Thanks for sharing. I really like your posts Corsair.

Oh that is a brilliant NOM primary talk! Well done Azflyer and Azflyer jr.

Achilles, that was a wonderful response. And it is something the readers of Meridian need to hear.

Hagoth, I am right with you about Oaks. He is like a Packer 2.0.

That is so precious! Dinosaurs in the temple! :lol: In my ward the sunbeam teacher was whispering the parts to the each of the children as they took their turn at the podium. After she whispered to one little boy, he turned to her with an incredulous look on his face said, "what? no way!" Then he wo...

Welcome back! Realizing the "prophets" weren't actually talking to God was one of the biggest eye opening moments in my faith transition too. It's crazy because when I was TBM I just loved GC and I would reread all the conference talks in the Ensign. And now on the other side of my faith transition ...

Sweet tie!!!

I bought DD a Rainbow Dash (that's the My Little Pony that has all the rainbows on her) dress and she wore it to church for the primary program.

Oh and . . . Zach Torion Listen to what a kind and considerate person MoPag is. Remembers my name, but misspells it a bit and then when I show up with the "correct spelling," MoPag IMs me saying sorry for misspelling the name. I would have just IMed back, but I'm so new, the system wont let me yet....

Wow that was raw and beautiful and heartbreaking. Wow that was a trigger... So $&@?! stupid to think I wore those mesh man panty suits for so many years! God, this infuriates me so much. What a traumatic response I'm feeling now. ((Hugs)) RR! I think today is just going to be one of those days. But ...

LaMachina, I'm sorry I forgot your old NOM name. And I'm sorry I made you remember ward council. I don't want to relive those days either! The reason I have been trying to remember names is because -unlike church- NOM really has helped me. And it sucked when that help was gone from my life. Anyway, ...

This one really spoke to me, the video especially. Thanks for sharing. My current favorite NOM song is:

Ugh I did it again.

Then there was a sister who had a Nelson Mandela quote in her siggy. I can't remember her name though.

I swear every time I hit submit I remember someone else.

I'd go crazy-well crazier-without NOM too! Glad you are here with us.

I would love to see something that honors our LGBT brothers and sisters that took their lives because of policy. Maybe a meme with their names or pics. I think we need to put a face(s) to the horrible damage this piece of sh*t policy has done. Wasn't it 33 people who have taken their lives? or I thi...

That is a beautiful way to out yourself. Very well written and very heartfelt. I bet there are TBMs who will read that and wish they had to courage to speak up like you did.

When I was little, I always dreamed of them changing it to cherry Kool-Aid and the marshmallow pieces from Lucky Charms. Not the cereal pieces, it had to be just the marshmallow pieces.

Now that seer stones are ok again will Desert Book be rolling out a new line of them for Christmas? And maybe something that looks something like a Ouija board but for communing with Jehovah. I think framed prints of the Smith family's magical treasure hunting parchments would look fantastic hangin...

Hi Allie. Thanks for sharing your story. I'm a single mom right now, and I like to hear stories about moms who survived single motherhood and moved on to better things. They way my "inspired" church leaders tried to "help" after XH left was a really big blow to my shelf too. They never prepared us f...

Thanks for all the great work you did moderating the old board. I love hearing your perspective on things. You have taught me a lot.

Yay!!! I missed your conference reviews! And you too!
