I have the courage to say what no politician will: If we're going to have property tax relief for any cohort by age it should be for those under age 35

All incentives should be explicitly age gated to EXCLUDE seniors

We won WW2 and you can tell because the grandchildren of the “winning team” make up less than 60% of the population and the tax farm we live in is designed to give as many resources to foreigners as possible.

You don't have to have been wronged to feel envious & inferior

Every institution of power in America is betting on the failure of this administration, total rollback of all its policies, & no consequences for their defiance

Weird how the PR department never “accidentally” profiles some embarrassingly far right wing dude

@parasocialyte As someone who was raised around a ton of LDS families/close friends with/etc, I can tell you with 100% certainty this dude right here is problematic as f*ck. It’s in the dead eyes with fake excitement expression

[Bennett's Phylactery @extradeadjcb]

It's not really about the gays, or feminism, or normal people not "feeling seen" - all of that is downstream of worship of the self, God as a vehicle for self-actualization & self-acceptance

The reason I don't want my daughter to think or talk this way is that this search for fulfillment within oneself is a bottomless pit, I have never met a person who talks like this who is actually happy

The Lord is preparing us and the church to spread the gospel in new ways but that is more akin to adding new tools to your collection vs throwing away your hammer because you just bought a drill.

[Harrison @harrisonb501]

Elders need to be knocking WAY more doors. Few do it, the ones that do always over estimate how much they do, and too many assume it isn’t effective. If worldwide, elders even averaged 10 doors a day conversions would sky rocket.

[The Real Calvy J @CJRealHoops2]

Those of you who served LDS missions, I’m curious:

Was tracting (knocking on doors) still common in your mission?

Genuinely asking, because it was already almost entirely phased out of my mission when I arrived in the 2010s.

Just saw a clip of some LDS business podcaster boasting he knocked on 25k doors during his mission.

That just seems absurd to me. That’d be at least 35 doors a day, every day. At the rate you’d easily hit every door in your area (in most missions) within just a few transfers.

At that point, it’d just be performative busy work. Could’ve been visiting members (both active and less active), or providing service during those hours. Much better use of time.

Such a weird thing to brag about. If it’s even true.

[Harrison @harrisonb501]

There may come a day when the world changes in such a way that knocking doors and street contacting become truly ineffective ways to spread the gospel, but that day hasn’t come.
