NOM

I put my therapist in contact with my mom, and I've learned that therapists in general get her angry. Did your mom speak with the therapist, or just get angry at the thought of it? I tried to bring my DW to therapy with me to work through the issues related to my faith transition and discovered the...

Holy s--t, they actually did it! They did some Obi-Wan Kenobi "What I told you was true — from a certain point of view" crap so they could sound slightly less ridiculous while saying the Earth is flat!

The Repblican Senate declined to try the impeachments. It's not that he's so clean; he's the most corrupt president in living memory. Nixon was a meek and mild lamb compared to Trump. I watched the trials. Complete rubbish. Just because the judge throws the case out for lack of a crime doesn't make...

[ [ It's not your mode of writing which is offensive. It's the content: the factually false, misanthropic apologetics for a deranged, blustering thug. ] I really don't watch any of it, anymore, [ Watch any of what? ] Your arrogance is kind of humorous. You think that just because you come along 200...

I have news for you, SaidNobody: empty land doesn't vote. This isn't a chthonocracy. In a democracy (don't even start with the "This is a republic, not a democracy" crap), one county with a million people counts as much as 1000 counties with 1000 people each. I wouldn't have criticized your grammar...

That won't be necessary if exterminationism becomes sufficiently popular. Terrorists are already attacking the power grid on our account. As touching "The Brethren", they will continue the fight against us until they win or they lose money over it.

You really can't believe that more than half the nation thought he was a great president. I don't?? Or is this a butchery of grammar, and you meant to say, "You really can't believe that. More than half the nation thought he was a great president"? Tha fact is that Clinton got more votes, but Trump...

At times like this, I remember the pretext we were told in school for the electoral college: that the moderating influence of the élite would keep stupid demagogues out of power, and in that connection, how the electoral college in 2016 overrode the will of the people and installed a stupid demagogu...

I recall a talk where Pres. Nelson said that Adam, Noah etc. have all received the same covenants as we/LDS have. Does anyone know if temple work has been done for them? For people like King Saul, or Gideon, or Potiphar? How about Jezebel, King Ahab, Caiaphas, or Pontius Pilate? Is there a line dra...

I'm sorry your mom can't/won't understand, accept, and love you. That's so hard. How has the shooting in Colorado made it worse? Is she celebrating it? I would think that such an obviously terrible act would get bigots to rethink their bigotry rather than double down. On a personal note, I'm glad t...

I heard effusive praise for this bill, but then I heard that the Mormon church approved of it. If the Mormon church approves of a seemingly progressive thing, it's probably not as progressive as it looks.

The last few years have driven her mental. She is now antivax and afraid of "gender ideology". I tried to disabuse her of these lies, but she clung tightly to them. It's personal for me, as I am trans myself. She reacted with extreme anger to my insistence upon being correctly addressed. The shootin...

The best way to get evil spirits to stop harassing you is to realize that they're imaginary.

It was Mormonism that taught him his queermisia. It doesn't matter that he isn't active now. Mormonism taught me my queermisia too, and it took me years to unlearn all of it, and I'm still unlearning, even though I have since learned that I'm queer myself. I should add that this unlearning didn't ha...

I'm trans myself, and my mother defended him using me.

Long, long rant ahead. Be warned. Please, please, please let me say the swears. My mom doesn't like this dictum from the prophets, her spiritual superiors. She's been crying all day over it! She's a damn fool! Suck it up and deal with it, you big baby! If assorted haircut-wanters and whiny idiots li...

John Taylor taught that Cain's lineage (the Black one) was preserved through the flood, "because it was necessary that the Devil should have a representation upon the Earth as well as God." (JoE 22:304) In 1960, Spencer W Kimball taught that the Native Americans ("Lamanites") were then in the proce...
