I know I’m gunna get attacked for this but why in the year 2023 of our Lord are parents not vaccinating their kids anymore?! Like ya’ll want polio and measles to run rampant again?!
@RaeOfLightPDX
Legitimate vaccine injured is a different thing. And those who cannot have a vaccine because of allergies to medications and/or ingredients. These are the ones we should be protecting by vaccinating, because they cannot.
Ok, so this is blowing up way more than I anticipated:

Yes, I’m a Christian who believes in miracles and God. I also strongly believe medical advancement and scientific advancement are because of God. Why would He have us advancing in these just to say “no, don’t use this knowledge for your health?”
Can someone explain to me (from a
@Ch_JesusChrist
bishopric) why releasing me from a calling (which I had already been released from but Never Told) required a physical meeting for 2 seconds instead of just calling me and saving us all time?
@daiseaaa
I thought he did ok, not terrible but not great. I was most annoyed at his terrible American to English accent. It was so distracting! I feel like the “British” comment additive in the movie were an afterthought because of how terrible his accent was
@erinhahn_author
I was always so afraid of being the student locked out. I remember being told if you’re in the bathroom when a lockdown is started to lock the main door, turn off lights, and then hide on top of a toilet in the farthest stall with it locked.
@poetickate
It seems he likes to announce, then talk with the actual cities/countries thinking it will be fine. That’s what happened with the Orem temple. Right after he announced it Orem city posted on social saying “that’s nice, but we haven’t even been asked about this or discussed it

As a Photographer who used Insta for business purposes it is So Frustrating that the algorithm cators to video now. I just want potential clients to see my work, not stupid videos.
@poetickate
The address Is technically Orem and I guess the Mayor had talked to the church about Potentially building one in the area (my memory was wrong on that) But the church and them never confirmed anything Before announcing.

@rachelsteenblik
In the LDS temple they call God Elohim, which literally means Gods. Plural. Male and female. It’s very clear She is there and was/is involved but church leaders Refuse to acknowledge that or look past the patriarchal lense
In case my twitter friends were wondering, I had the baby in Saturday, Nov 19! Ended up being induced at 7:30a, water broken at 11:30, baby born at 12:33p. Everything went fairly well until right when she came out and I tore my cervix 5-6cm and started hemorrhaging. Got all…1/2
At the dentist I heard a child talking about getting money from the "tooth fairy," and all I could think of was

saying "don't give fairies your teeth!"
@mimrebel
If it’s been stated more than two times they are not interested, time to be firm and as a parent intervene. Set your boundaries and clearly state how you do not appreciate or allow pressuring your child to do something they are uncomfortable with or do not want to do.
@BYUbugged
In no way, shape, or form is this correct or should be encouraged. EVEN in kinks or BDSM. Everything should be consensual and enjoyable for all participants.
This is motherhood:
Pregnancy changed my hair type
PP hair loss
Cracked dry skin around my lips
Dark purple under-eyes
Saggy belly skin
Pumping in a public bathroom
Doing what it takes to create a good future for my kids

I did not go to BYU for the Religious Education. I went for the Education and my family could actually "afford" this school. The motto is "Enter to Learn." Like any higher education or trade school you want to Learn from those with the Education! If you're a Biology Major you 1/2
@Neil10790465

@AlanFarnes
Want your professor's to be Educated in Biology not Statistics, PHD aside. How is that any different from Religion courses? I much preferred Professors with degrees in the religious content they taught. They better understood the material and the class was not glorified seminary.
@sunday_southern
@Ch_JesusChrist
Interesting. Funny enough I’ve never been asked about my experience in a calling or really been “thanked”. (Granted we’ve usually moved before we were released even though the ward knew we were leaving). But church “Thanks” always seem so disingenuous and insincere.
@jpcp8000
My husband is on grounds and also said it is considered graffiti. They have to wash off any chalk they find on campus. 😢 So don't say anything if you participate in any chalk art so there isn't a chance of you getting fined.
@takeoutphoto
@Ch_JesusChrist
I guess I see that viewpoint.
I didn’t even get thanked, just told “we are officially releasing you since we already did but forgot to tell you”
@AuntMarvel
Pride flags keep getting ripped, vandalized, and stollen in our neighborhood! I cannot comprehend why Anyone thinks it's ok or right to do that. I hope your flags stay safe, but if something does happen you get a good video/pic of the person.
Wearing my Pride pin I got from the Back to School Pride event yesterday to church and bore my testimony for the first time in years about Heavenly Father, Heavenly Mother, and Jesus Christ’s unconditional love for everyone.
@clhubes
I seriously am amazed the human race has survived. I’m right there with you in having an almost 3 yo and a 5 mo. I thank God every day for birth control. 🙏🏻
You guys, the other night Tom actually acknowledged and called me Bi! I know not a huge deal, but it also kinda is since it really feels like he and I are truly accepting my sexuality.

@BYU
My husband works on grounds and in his area they are only spot watering a few minutes. He takes care of that so he knows they aren't fully watering, and grass is def more crunchy than the past. But it wouldn't be surprising if other areas and supervisors are watering like normal.
If you aren't upset, disturbed, or angry about what Brad Wilcox said in his talk this past Sunday, you need to really rethink your values and Christian ideals.
The fact that BYU, a school that encourages students to get married and start families while attending, does not have this as a blanket policy (and barely added a family study area in the lib) shows how little they actually care for families and parents getting an education.

@Momademia
From my syllabus... I wish I could remember where I got most of these ideas, but they definitely aren't mine. I also offer Zoom access for all lectures, and post the recordings same-day for post-lecture access.
Hoping more will do the same.
@mormon_satan
Have sex with your husband even if you don’t want to. Luckily I have a very compassionate and understanding husband who Never expects sex or me to do it when I don’t want to.
In regards to the “never go to bed angry” our bishop said that was the stupidest advice and it’s harmful
@RachelBrown_mft
My son is one and likes toy cars, dinosaurs, giving his stuffed animals hugs and kisses, and regularly picks his pink plate. He pointed to pink slippers today instead of the blue. 🤷🏼♀️ We haven't pushed anything or any "agenda". People need to mind their own business.
Stitched up in surgery while my husband was down in the nursery with baby. We are both doing pretty well now. I will say a tiny outside tear is Way less painful to recover from than a lvl 3 episiotomy. Now I am enjoying newborn snuggles all the time.
If y'all could pray, manifest, do some magic, or anything for my husband to find a good paying full-time job quickly that would be greatly appreciated. He is officially done with BYU and now is in the job hunt. Thank you! ❤️
I am manifesting and putting into the universe and God's hands that this week I will get photography sessions booked to help pay bills for this month. 🙏🏻
Something that bothers me is my SIL used a photo of MY son as a baby to promote her anti-abortion views. I don’t agree with her views and that’s fine, we don’t have to agree, but it just irks me she used my baby’s photo. Especially since we are pro-choice.
@seagulljaap
In some LDS mom fb groups, moms rave about these church based schools. People want them all over and for the church to have actual schools promoted by the church. They safe it’s a “safer school option and more in line with their faith and values, with no worldly horrors” 🙄
I am So Glad Tom is done with
@BYU
, but so getting nervous for my bro-in-law (who often babysits our Son) because of the obvious lack of consideration for their students, staff, and their families. Why is there no clear Covid protocol anymore?
@_Kristine_A
When I got in trouble with the hco I was told to throw away my short shorts and tank tops and that the honor code was to be followed even when not at school. I also was very nervous to post any photo from summer vacation on social media bc of people potentially reporting me.
@emiweelee
I took a self defense class at BYU and it was actually really good for me to know how to protect myself and gain confidence in doing so. But I also agree that lessons on red flags and abuse are highly important!
@jessiejensen
White shirts and no flip flops to church, no playing with friends or sports on Sunday, no shopping on Sunday, garments can't touch the floor, no caffeinated soda, no tea of any kind, no fake tattoos. So much stuff
@gringabre
We were asked several times at the hospital, then at every check up for it son after until about 3 months. Like, we've said no, every time, can you just accept that?
My dad keeps saying we Need to cut my sons hair. I say he doesn’t want it cut. Dad says needs vs wants. I say he doesn’t need it cut. If my son says he wants it cut we’ll get it cut, until then he has long hair.
The psychological effect Mormon culture had on my mom of “your only a really woman when you have children” was so hard when she had her hysterectomy. She felt like a failure and like she wouldn’t be a mother anymore.
Thanks friends for the comforting thoughts and comments yesterday. A while ago I ran out of antidepressants and didn’t have a refill. I was going good mentally and thought I would go for it (without medical advice) to go without. I know I need to find a psychiatrist I just havent
If all the hyper-conservative Utah Republicans are homeschooling their kids to keep them from being “radicalized by the libs” why do they care what is going on in the schools? Your kids aren’t there, and you won’t let them associate with kids who do so what’s it matter to you?
Today Tom asked for lasagna for dinner (he rarely requests a dish and has never asked for lasagna), so I went and bought the ingredients and made my first lasagna!
@FailedLDSWoman
She has no right or Need to know what undergarments you wear. If she comments or asks, just tell her it’s Highly inappropriate for her to do so. I’d also want to say some other things but probably wouldn’t since it’s mil.
Anyways, it’s completely your choice. It’s your body.
So I guess the church can discriminate against those with disabilities and conditions that require service animals. Not very “All are Welcome” of them.
@puffinmama
I was first married, still getting used to wearing them, and Was wearing them. My Great-grandma said "your dress was cute but are you wearing garments? It's pretty short!" I was shocked. I have very long legs so garments are short on me, plus I'm thin so they are even shorter. 🙄
I love that my nurse says yay every time she asks if I want to eat more snack and I say yes. I came in to the office barely able to walk, was given an iv, and now can actually eat.
@aliahdomino
This photoshoot. I felt like a goddess, a queen, and sexy. It's been a very difficult month and a bit. Coping with my different body, mental health decline, and self love. It's all really bad for me right now and I really appreciate you reminding me that I'm not alone in anything
I showered for the first time in almost two weeks last night, forced myself to even shave my legs (after months), and got my son dressed this morning. These are all accomplishments I’m going to be proud of.
I was really confused why people were posting on my FB wall today, until I saw them saying happy birthday and realized what day it is. So here’s to 26. 🍾
Very proud of myself for, after saying it very sweet and nicely, asserting myself by pulling away and defensively saying "Let's Not talk about my weight" to my great grandma.
She Always comments on my weight.
@ldsfootnotes
After researching her life and taking the BYU Mormon Women's History class, I believe there was a love there, young love, but she definitely had issues with things both with him and the church doctrine. There's a reason JS kept his multiple wives a Secre, She was Very against it.
I feel like I’m one of the only people who does Not like the Bachelor/Bachelorette. Like, watching women throw themselves at a man and him getting with them all at the same time doesn’t really do it for me.
@aliahdomino
Hearing my husband's stories about going to pubs as a teenager in England is still crazy to me. Like we can't even go in a bar if you're under 21, and you can go in pubs underage no questions asked.
My most BYU story is matching with my Econ TA on tinder, seeing he looked Nothing like his pic, having the most Awkward and uncomfortable date, and never wanting to go back to class cuz I might see him. (I didn’t know he was my TA until right before the date!)
This information has been shared by some others and in some FB groups I’m in. It’s heart wrenching that church leadership want to tear away and destroy any connection to our Heavenly Mother. For being a church so obsessed and centered on traditional families…1/2
My daughter has the cutest little platinum blonde patch in her hair. She’s had it since birth. Can’t quite tell if it’s just the hair or the skin has no pigment causing the hair to lack pigment. She also has a little birth mark on her leg.
This week I went to get a couple new Gs for my husband and I. As soon as I walked into the Deseret Book I started feeling extremely anxious. Once in the distribution center I felt nauseous, heart racing, difficulty breathing, and on the verge of a panic attack. So that was fun.
Lots of people saying I look so pretty and like a hot pregnant mama today. It’s cuz I actually did makeup, including lipstick, and did something to my hair other than a ponytail. 😂
Anyone else manic clean when a babysitter or someone is coming over? I totally was thinking about the old vines about the boy acting out his mom cleaning for company coming,
“We Cannot let people know we Live here!”
