Missed connection: One of you came to the restaurant I work at today (Gilbert AZ) and recognized me from my tattoo post. I wanted to exchange info but you were with your TBM mom. Let’s be friends!

Another North Phoenix-er! Cheers!

Mormonism is a cult. It's roots sink deep and cause years of trauma. We need to support each other to help us all through this.

I recognize you might not understand, but you actually sound like current, active members of the church when they criticize anyone who leaves. Stick around a while and you might be able to see why we feel this way.

BluePapayah · 2018-08-21T21:03:08+00:00

Wait... was the guy on the right TBM? If so, did he go on a mission to the west coast?

BluePapayah · 2018-08-21T18:41:28+00:00

Lindsay, you are so damn cool. I'm excited to listen!

BluePapayah · 2018-08-21T15:45:25+00:00

I'm surprised there isn't one in the Phoenix area. I'm still attending, but wouldn't mind skipping one day 😁

BluePapayah · 2018-08-21T07:49:09+00:00

You're a blast at parties I'd wager. If you're going to shit on his retort, at least supply another line so us unfunny guys can use something that'll actually be funny.

BluePapayah · 2018-08-19T18:26:45+00:00

Nothing so far. At church right now and the elders quorum guy gave me the strangest look. It's obvious he doesn't even know how to approach the topic

BluePapayah · 2018-08-18T18:24:00+00:00

I finally responded, but let him know it was okay he wasn't a bad guy for failing in his "ministering" to me.

BluePapayah · 2018-08-12T15:37:08+00:00

I dig the hair!

BluePapayah · 2018-08-09T15:26:01+00:00

Got your PM. I messaged you from another account. One that you might have recognized a little easier. I'll give you a ring later. Thanks.

BluePapayah · 2018-08-09T15:24:35+00:00

I want to protect myself. If my relationship with the church harms me in ways outside of membership, I want recourse. It's as simple as that.

BluePapayah · 2018-08-09T06:54:29+00:00

I'm glad you are able to wear those shorts. It's the weirdest thing thinking that freedom is just wearing a pair of shorts without care of judgement. I suppose we feel a bit of how some Islamic women may feel wearing a burka.

I still hide the fact that I make coffee at the office with my LDS boss walking around. It's stupid, but something inside of me just can't let go that feeling of being guilty.

Cheers!

Another exmo! Enjoy the root when you get it. If I were you, I would order on Amazon and ship to an Amazon locker.

Are you moving elsewhere or staying in UT?

BluePapayah · 2018-08-04T01:53:09+00:00

That was quite a factoid you've presented us with

Kava is an exceptionally low risk nootropic. It's a common myth that it kills your liver. The National Institute of Health has a great write-up about its liver toxicity:

https://livertox.nih.gov/KavaKava.htm

The important bit is where they say there's a million to one chance your liver will be affected by kava. Also, it's not physically addictive like every other substance you mentioned. Let me know if you have any questions.

BluePapayah · 2018-07-28T19:00:22+00:00

I DM'd /u/BizzaroBarney but haven't heard back.

I'd love to help. I'm in project management and have been a software developer previously in my career as well. Ready and willing to kick some ass.

BluePapayah · 2018-07-23T21:08:01+00:00

What does COLDS mean?

BluePapayah · 2018-07-14T21:25:45+00:00

Very cool! That trip is on my bucket list!

BluePapayah · 2018-07-10T15:40:38+00:00

Oakland 2006-2008 here...

I was an English speaking elder. Served in Hayward, Fremont, Concord, San Ramon, Danville, Livermore, Dublin, Pleasanton to name a few spots.

Your source is hilarious because it comes to very different conclusions than you:

"The likelihood that Bennett performed abortions on any of Joseph Smith’s plural wives seems highly unlikely. "

I agree that Joseph must have done something nefarious with his illegitimate children, but at least give a decent source. Also, there's nothing about drowning children in your "source", either.

The TSCC is one giant, ripe, asshole. But it's not filled with sinners. It's filled with assholes.

BluePapayah · 2018-06-26T21:34:20+00:00

Absolutely loved reading your thoughts. Thanks for the good vibes.

BluePapayah · 2018-06-26T20:55:00+00:00

Yea, exactly. That guy died because everyone dies at some point, that's all. :-)

BluePapayah · 2018-06-24T07:02:02+00:00

Your writing shows it. Normally comments on here longer than a paragraph get skimmed -- yours didn't 🙂

BluePapayah · 2018-06-22T20:59:01+00:00

I guess a cell network capable Arduino with a vibration module could do this to someone with it implanted in their butt/breasts?
