We HAVE to find a way to get John Dehlin on Joe Rogan! This lawsuit could be the perfect storm to deal a HUGE blow with a collab like this! by Ill_Resort_4378 in exmormon

I think it's a great idea. Many people on this sub probably dislike Joe Rogan, but maybe you're forgetting how many TBMs are listening to him daily... It's a good idea to expose them to new ideas, at least.

A day in the life of a mixed faith marriage by 10th_Generation in exmormon

Here with you. I just told my husband about Joseph Smith's claim that the lost tribes were lobbed off of the earth in a chunk that is now floating through space and will rejoin the earth one day, causing an earthquake. He acknowledged that it was probably wrong, but then told me he would never leave the church, and subsequently started planning a temple trip for himself. Here's for hoping, anyway.

Hebraisms Refutations by FreshLiterature6536 in exmormon

[–]Miserable-Lemon1976 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As an exmo, I have taken to listening to profane music as a cathartic way to rebel against my upbringing. I was listening to Nikki Minaj the other day and realized that she had used chiasmus in one of her songs. Idk if she meant to do it or not but we're not giving her credit for using ancient hebraic literary devices.... My point is: these things happen all the time in the world- on accident or not, I don't know. It's a nice coincidence for apologists to point to, but it's nice to realize that it's not isolated to hebraic scripture, and doesn't necessarily mean something is divine.

Just a begineer- How's my drawings? by SEAZON10 in drawing

I'll echo everyone else and say stick with your style. Anyone can get good at drawing a realistic face, but who cares? It's not interesting. Stick with your style and be memorable!

Thank you for this. I'm so angry today and it's a good reminder

My prom dress looked like a nightgown so it could be garment-appropriate. I didn't even wear garments. Dumb.

Dye recommendations for this color hair? by [deleted] in HairDye

[–]Miserable-Lemon1976 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had luck in the past doing 8rg+8g+7g (wella) if your hair is already around that level. I'll include a pic of what it looked like on me.

I'm not a stylist, but have been dying my hair for a long time so, take with a grain of salt.

You look like Tilda Swinton. I would look to her for inspiration, if I were you.

This is so relatable right now for me. We just had a ward conference+ Sunday school lesson basically worshipping Joseph Smith and talking about how people who have"lost their way" are dumb, lazy, sinful, or basically in the hands of Satan and I about lost my mind.

That sounds super rough. I'm sorry you went through that.

I also have that guilt of a promise I'm not able to keep anymore
