I'm a public school teacher, not in Utah. My state is trying to hop on the Florida/Texas bandwagon.
The bad news is, we have a Republican supermajority so it's all going to go through. The good news is, the ACLU watches these laws being written and they are SALIVATING.

I think it's about Nelson symbolically dancing on Hinckley's grave.

Re: NOMference Sunday Afternoon Spring 2023!!
Ooh, I spoke too soon. Husband absolutely NEEDED me to come help him with laundry, RIGHT NOW, while the choir was favoring us with my least favorite hymn of all time, even 'I Stand All Amazed.'

Re: NOMference Sunday Afternoon Spring 2023!!
My husband is outside doing yard work, not listening to Conference - for the second time today.
I am SO CONFUSED.

The countdown is officially on
Youngest is a freshman in high school. As soon as she graduates, I'm filing for divorce. For a hot second I thought 'maybe I should go back to church and everything will be okay.' But that's ludicrous. The thing is, even while I was orthodox he disregarded my feelings, withheld empathy, and used my ...

What's the point of Oaks sucking up?
His place in line is assured. All Oaks has to do to inherit the big chair is not die. Why does it matter if he crushes his water bottles for recycling or not?

An apology in Conference is as rare as someone getting cancer and not dying from it!

Re: NOMference Saturday Morning Spring 2023!!
I'm in my bedroom with the door closed, watching a movie (Greyhound, which is great, but is suspiciously devoid of long doggos) and I can tell it's Eyring just by the quavering. God, it's so PERFORMATIVE.

Re: NOMference Saturday Morning Spring 2023!!
Oh, it's nice that they got today's woman speaker out of the way early. Hopefully the rest of the day will be a sausage fest so my husband doesn't have to be forced to listen to female voices, which is against his religion.

Re: How do you label yourself regarding your belief?
My mother in law swears that she met my husband in a dream before he was conceived. Cute story. But... I don't know, I have dreams all the time about having another baby, and I'm 43, my youngest is in high school, and I'm on 2 forms of birth control. Sometimes a dream is just a dream. And, being a m...

Re: How do you label yourself regarding your belief?
I'm a misotheist. (That means that I hate God, not that I worship Japanese soup. Although...) I was enormously relieved to find that there is a word for it, and that it's not even all that uncommon of a belief.

Re: Impermanent Ward Relationships are Still Real
I don't think it's a coincidence that my need for church- based socialization went WAY down when I started my actual career (at 39). I have to assume that's why it's so important to them to keep women at home and largely isolated, to create an artificial need that only they can fill.

Re: Thanksgiving prayer
My Alma Mater, Butler University, beat BYU in basketball on Thanksgiving Day! I've been waiting 20+ years for my husband's school and my school to play each other and it finally happened. Butler led for pretty much the whole game, too. Fun fact: Butler is named after an abolitionist, and it was one ...

What new locations will not be receiving a temple? I was literally folding towels and that was more interesting than GC.

Re: NOMference Sunday Morning Fall 2022 - for Mopag
Considering how often their friends (both Mormon and not) are used as straw men in Conference talks, I'm surprised these men HAVE any friends.
