Picard programming tip: The first version of any software will be buggy. That's why so many holodeck programs try to kill you.

Does this father's child currently practice or even believe in Mormonism?

If not, shouldn't the 11th article of faith apply here? Shouldn't the father be following this belief?

"... and allow all men the same privilege, let them worship how, where, or what they may."

Scientists got bored after watching the Earth rotate for 24 hours.

So they called it a day

I remember the first time I bought a coffee. It was an undercover operation trying to be sure no one saw me. I went as far as turning off the find my location feature on my phone so family would not see.

Now could care less who sees me with coffee or alcohol.

When I am President, every supposed Star Trek "fan" who complains about Trek being "woke" will be forced to turn in their Spock ears and live out their lives in shame.

Overhead conversions while eating lunch at Kneeders has gone from "whose kids are going on a mission" or "whose kids have left the church" to pretty much all Trump conversations.

Now now, no guilt by association. There are some good smart professors at BYU. My observation was the narcissists tend to be in administration. Outspoken forks get fired, like the September 6.

WHO DID THIS?!?

We are watching the Green Bay vs Bears game delayed from the live game because technology is neat.

And then with a couple of minutes left, @amazonprime.bsky.social flashes the final score on the TV.

Way to go spoiling the end of the game for us.

My spouse and I have talked about leaving Utah off and on. The kids are in school and tied to their friends. We don't want to take them away from that. And we have many ties too with community and friends.

I just wish the dominant religion and political drama was not a thing.

Wish I’d thought of this

Bowling pins with strings are complete garbage. Brought to you by the focus group that decided timed bowling games were a good idea.

I've come to the realization that I can watch Seasons 4 and 5 of Strange New Worlds some other way later and I need to join others dropping Paramount+ now.

If you’re wondering why your friends in academia are a little on edge right now, it’s because an eighteen-year-old who hasn’t done the reading, doesn’t look at the assignment, and has does no critical thinking skills more complex than “because I think it’s in the Bible” can literally end your career

Wow. This explains so much I have observed in my life, like Mormon family accepting MAGA bad behavior to leaders prioritizing "the good name of the church" over victims of child abuse.

The White House has been caught.

The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims.

In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.

My kids informed me after that they hear the "f-word" 100x between classes.

Also the taxi scene with the pin up girls and scene where they accuse each other of fondling themselves was not censored.

I thought about this poster recently.

I watched someone insist that the TV be muted for their young teenager during the part of Planes, Trains, and Automobiles when Steve Martin gets angry at the airport.

Yet this teen loves to watch Friends with all the sex and innuendo.

Was this before or after the rise and fall of CleanFlicks (I think that was the name)?

Objective truths are still out there. It’s just harder than ever to know what they look like.

I imagine this hits so hard if you’re stupid…

Utah House Republicans $26,584 resort retreat billed to taxpayers Utah House Republicans charged taxpayers $26,584 for a Zermatt resort retreat, including catered meetings. Records raise questions about funding choices.

Utah taxpayers picked up a $26,584 tab for a House GOP retreat at a swanky resort.

The bill included rooms for legislators, staffers and more than $10,000 in catering costs.

Star Trek The Next Generation scene. We're on ship and in a beautifully carpeted and panelled corridor. William T. Riker, usually in his red uniform, is shown here in his pajamas wandering the hall. He looks bedraggled and schluffy and slightly deranged. Must be Thanksgiving morning. Closed caption reads, "what to eat, what to say, what to think, what to eat."

Does Jesus Love White Men More than Child Victims? - Exponent II Blog If the church is literally Jesus and this is how abuse is handled systemically throughout the church, then Jesus cares more about white men than he does about children and victims.

“I’m so sick of being taught supposed eternal gospel principles in Sunday School lessons, only for the church as a whole to wildly ignore its own teachings whenever it serves them.”

I shared this where Mormon family and friends will see it. Denial harms children. Let them be mad at me. Worth it.
