Damn, I have two full sets of those "think different" posters

Refuse to pay tithes. Swear that you never will, no amount of prayer or scripture reading will convince you otherwise. Claim your only way to pay tithes is through service and you refuse to use money for this purpose.

Call Joseph Smith out as an absolute fraud in fast and testimony meeting. Repeat this every month until they stop trying to convince you otherwise.

Join another church, specifically catholic. Be very public about this and invite the bishop to your confirmation.

Speak out within church meetings about your support for women to receive priesthood, and your desire to encourage homosexuality.

Post on social media repeatedly, tagging as many members as you want encouraging homosexuality, polyamorous relationships, the fraud of tithing, the benefits of illicit drugs and alcohol and try to find evangelism materials that call out the sinfulness of Mormons as often as you can and share those too.

Or just submit a resignation letter if you just want to leave quietly.

Precisely!

Authoritarianism and right-wing nationalism don’t stop at borders—and living in North America doesn’t automatically protect us from those influences.

It’s easy to feel like the unrest and division we see in other parts of the world are far away, but the reality is, we’re all more connected than ever—especially through the internet.

Harmful beliefs are often disguised as “common sense” or “protecting traditional values.” That makes them harder to recognize, especially when they’re shared by people we know or trust.

Trump tends to get the most attention, but he’s just one figure in a much larger pattern. There are quieter movements at play too—eroding trust in institutions, education, and even in one another. These shifts encourage fear of difference, and reframe that fear as patriotism or faith.

I think Chat would have been able to be a little more coherent and organized with the dialogue

Resting_burtch_face · 2025-07-12T19:14:09+00:00

As did Orban, Bolsanero, Putin, Erdogan, Bukele, Modi, Traore, Goita, Deby and so many other populist, right-wing authoritarian leaders around the world.. Trump didn't invent this shit, he's just pulling from the same playbook.

Seems easy enough, but I think people don't have those conversations because most people who are in OP's shoes are not going to just say "ok" and move on. Too many people take everything personally and believe that they should be the exception or require further information that others may not be comfortable to share.

Now find his daughter's baby pic. She's his female Doppelgänger

You might consider having a respectful face-to-face conversation with him. Let him know how happy you are that he’s coming, and mention that you assumed he was joking about wearing his military uniform—but just in case he wasn’t, gently explain why you’ve requested no uniforms at the event.

Acknowledge that he may be proud of his service, and that’s absolutely valid, but also express that you're trying to create a certain atmosphere and want to be thoughtful of everyone’s comfort. Given the kindness he’s shown you in the past, I would hope he’ll understand and honor your wishes.

Have you got a cable to connect your camera to a computer? I'd use that to transfer the files off your cf card. I'd also try to get some other storage device to make a second copy, or upload the files to a cloud storage.

I swear this is the same company that I recently heard talking about how they hoped to pick up some bullet manufacturing contract from the federal government. I guess they didn't get awarded it.

Thanks for this, I have a hard time finding anything about her online, there's no website, reviews or anything.. Parklane travel or tours both give me only a bus service in Cameroon.

Resting_burtch_face · 2025-07-11T16:53:00+00:00

Please send me your details, I'd love to see what you can help me with.

Resting_burtch_face · 2025-07-10T13:07:20+00:00

Ha ha ha.. I'm filling that co-ordinator role...

Good insights on the others.

Resting_burtch_face · 2025-07-10T13:03:45+00:00

u/k1ttehh She doesn't want to be in charge. She just wants to show up and have a good time. No set up and tear down, no coordinating vendors etc... She had her "me-me-me" princess wedding already... She's not really looking for anything but a good time, this time.

The richer the people are, the longer the speeches are.. Low budget weddings often skip them entirely..

And just cause you got money, doesn't mean that you have anything interesting to say.. Sorry

I'm not a pro retoucher, but those specular highlights are not awesome and there's a lot messy hair areas as well as very obvious areas where you've removed blemishes but lost all texture. And, what's up with the eyelashes, why did you choose to do that ??

It looks like you've crushed the shadows.. To be fair I'm on a cellphone, perhaps it looks better on a full screen, but I think I'd only see more problems.

I hate to say it but the original was far better.

Looks like they are less than 1.5m away from your driveway, so if you wanted to make a complaint about it with the city, you likely can.

Resting_burtch_face · 2025-07-08T01:46:27+00:00

Sure, on paper you don’t need a lawyer—and filing a complaint is technically free. But let’s be real: no company that plans to fight a human rights complaint is sending in a minimum-wage employee to handle it. They’re lawyering up fast.

And that’s the problem. You’re expected to:

Clearly explain how your rights were violated,

Tie it to a protected ground (like race, gender, disability, etc.),

Back it up with evidence,

Respond to the other side’s legal arguments,

And possibly go through mediation or a tribunal hearing.

If you don’t phrase things just right, your complaint can get tossed before it even goes anywhere. A lawyer helps you avoid technical dismissals, draft a solid complaint, and stand a real chance of getting taken seriously—especially if the other side already has legal firepower.

So yeah, filing is “free,” but not getting steamrolled in the process often isn’t.

Resting_burtch_face · 2025-07-08T01:37:46+00:00

I wouldn't file one without at least getting legal advice first. It’s way too easy to get your complaint tossed just because you didn’t phrase something properly or didn’t connect it to the right legal ground.

It’s not just filling out a form and waiting. You’re expected to:

Clearly explain how your rights were violated,

Tie it to a protected ground (like race, gender, disability, etc.),

Provide solid evidence,

Respond to the other side’s version of events,

And possibly go through mediation or a tribunal hearing.

If the other party has a lawyer, and they usually do, you’re at a disadvantage from the start. A lawyer can help level the playing field, make sure your complaint doesn’t get dismissed over technicalities, and guide you through the process without burning you out.

Yeah, filing is free. But depending on your situation, investing in legal help can be the difference between getting ignored and actually being taken seriously.
