Looks like he is giving "opposition in all things" talk. I mean Runia kind of said the same things in her talk but this guy has a priesthood antenna so it makes it legit :roll:

And they present these stories like they are faith promoting stories. It's blowing my f-ing mind right now....

All this talk about fasting reminds me that I have a sleeve of mint Oreos calling my name...

Just checking in, no commentary but what a snoozefest so far - even Sister M has napped for 15 minutes now. Why this is even on in my house is beyond me.

The suffering of Pres. Mopag is an inspiration to us all.

I too would be sleeping were it not for the sacred power of the coffee of which I have partaken.

How do we know Rusty is dead? Because it took an hour and a half to get to the first Rusty Nelson quote.

Oh...another humble brag.

Is gambling an issue akin to furry pilots? Or a made up problem for conservative old dudes? Who knows?

I'll have to do some research on this but my kid in their mid 20s does say this is an issue for her peers. So maybe there is something to this, but indeed a weird talk for conference.
