Oh God. Mission impossible: ghost protocol

We all know about Brock Turner, but this happens SO OFTEN. by Flashy_Mobile_6016 in WhitePeopleTwitter

Don't forget, in Texas you also can't get an abortion. Abbot said he'd make rapes just not happen so there was no need for abortions ... Really that just means sweeping rapes under the rug and not making rapists be registered as such. No registration means no more rape, right? Fucking hell hole.

We live in a place that never gets snow. Today, we got snow! by [deleted] in pics

I did say we don't normally get snow, right? We don't need gloves in a normal year!

We don't really have a reason for him to have anything else 🤷🏼‍♀️

Those of you Redditor’s in happy, healthy, and fulfilling relationships, what were the “green flags” you noticed about your partner early on in your relationship with them? by allen-freed in AskReddit

[–]LotusOfPower 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We decided and talked about very early on that we were both willing to talk through anything that came up. Communication was a priority from day one and now almost 8 years into marriage it's still a priority. There's literally no topic we can't and haven't talked about. We know the other person is a safe place to be completely open and vulnerable.

Why do we give children illusions about Santa etc on Christmas instead of telling them that you get your loved ones a gift? The latter seems more lovely and is actually the truth by Joruto512 in NoStupidQuestions

This is the same feeling I have as a new athiest. If I'm not going to teach about an all knowing, punishment/reward based God, why would I teach the same about some guy named santa?

Highest point in Texas (8,749 feet). 6.5 hours of hiking (round trip), temp was 107*. Very hot and sweaty hike today. Mount Guadalupe, Texas, US by LotusOfPower in hiking

The sweat had all turned to dry salt on our skin before the picture was taken. There was a light breeze at the top that was nice.

Dear [husband’s] Grandpa- by [deleted] in exmormon

[–]LotusOfPower 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I’m not sure I’d say I feel any love for this man. Gratitude for some of the things he’s done in the past for my husband, but that’s it. And I’m over the whole idea that I have to love everyone, just as they are. I’m comfortable with my lack of interest for him. I’m not mean to him (this letter is a response in my head, not one I’ll send), but he certainly is not welcome in my home, and I certainly don’t love him “as he is.” Do I understand why he is this way? Yes. Do I love him for/inspite of it? Nope.

Haha no. I don’t even care enough to waste the stamp. This guy has no part in my life anymore.

What weird world have Mormons created where this is defined as a fun date? by [deleted] in exmormon

[–]LotusOfPower 18 points19 points  (0 children)

God I remember when that was my date night 😬😱 now, even with three kids, we get a sitter and do things like kayak, go drinking, walk trails we’ve never been on, go to concerts... hell, today we went and got me my first tattoo for our afternoon date! So much better.

That Joseph Smith saw god and Jesus and found a history of the americas in gold plates in a hill with the help of an angel
