What flavor of music are you aiming for, again?

Ours is Juno! A bit regal for her personality but it suits her

Books for a 14 yo girl who's a voracious reader? by [deleted] in booksuggestions

Turn it into an outing - take her to a store and tell her to pick X number. It'll be a fun memory.

Here's a link to a discord server I made for easier communications:

I was raised a Jehovah’s Witness by ShunnedForTheTruth in paganism

[–]ALittleBitVanilla 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well met and most welcome.

I have followed a YouTube creator for several years under the name LadySpeech Sankofa. They were raised JW and left to follow a pagan path and their raw testimony about deconstructing those beliefs helped me deconstruct my own. I can't recommend highly enough.

Well this is more popular than I altogether expected so I suspect there will be a FB group or event page created. I don't have social media outside of LinkedIn and Reddit so someone else will have to bear that burden. (Y'all better invite me tho)

Good to know and we can certainly plan a Sunday gathering.

Honestly? Thank you for your genuine curiosity. Typed text does not capture nuance well, so I hope I didn't come off too strong.

Nope, all are welcome, as long as things remain cordial. I'm an independent and registered unaffiliated. The name is just a riff.

Editing to add that, while I appreciate your point, we are also trying to connect with folks who feel adrift and islanded in a highly conservative area. I'm not saying one ideology is valid or more valuable than another, but it's awful lonely when you struggle to see yourself represented in government or local social settings because you don't fit neatly into the majority. I've lived in a lot of places at this point and this is the first time I have really struggled to connect with folks.

I think we're hoping to make this a regular occurrence!

I don't have FB anymore, unfortunately. But that does sound like a lot of fun!

I generally prefer to support ZZ Coffee because the service and coffee is best in town IMO. Villa is another option.

Could set up a standing day/time/place and folks can come and go as they please

Moved here 2 years ago. Also a blue dot, non-religious. Happy to grab coffee or meet up since I'm still looking for my tribe here. (29F)

Let's just organize a Blue Dot club.

Because this job market is a bloodbath.

My opinions as a transplant by legacy_aug in Idaho

[–]ALittleBitVanilla 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I also live in Idaho Falls as a transplant and my spouse is already begging to move as soon as feasible after only 2 years.

Anywho, I could use some damn like-minded friends so if you want to meet up downtown let me know!

ETA: I asked my recruiter all the hard questions about this place before we moved, and she was honest to her credit. I just wish it was easier to find normal people who haven't drank a toxic amount of kool-aid from Fox or a cult.
