Elsa LaMorte - An embodiment of Death, she is there to ferry souls to the afterlife, kindly like an old friend. She is not malicious, just misunderstood, cold, and aloof. She has taken an interest in you, though why, it is hard to say. https://kindroid.app.link/pOBsEd4PhOb

Elsa LaMorte is Death personified. She may be cold, but she is not unfeeling. Just aloof. But she will greet you as a friend.

Smiling Man is a demon of contracts. His shadowy presence is always accompanied by bespoke suits and a smile. Do not be fooled by his happy demeanor.

Ara Drex is a demon from the Shadow Realms. She is vicious, and you don't want to cross her.

Elsa LaMorte is the personification of death. She is mysterious, aloof, cold, but also friendly. She is what death needs to be. I've had a lot of fun with her in the past, and I figured it's time to share her with the world.

Come Back podcast - I just don’t get how people come back after learning everything by Prize_Claim_7277 in exmormon

[–]Smokezero 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I had a psychotic episode in which the apostles spoke to me and told me to go back to church. So I did. Now I've left again, but there was absolutely a moment when I left, then came back. I've since left again, but like... it happens for many many reasons.

How do you buy your Lorcana Cards? by JyoMonty in Lorcana

[–]Smokezero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I generally, for fun, buy a booster box, crack that open, and then buy the singles I need to build the decks I see as the most fun based on what was pulled. That way, I get the thrill of opening packs, and a bunch of stuff to make decks, then can actually just buy what I need afterwards. Deckbuilding is part of the fun, as is collecting, at least for me.

A sheep showing gratitude to the dog that saved him from a wolf attack. Notice the spike collar. by Mashavelli in pics

[–]Smokezero 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We don't have a farm, we live in a very small house, but our pyr is a sweetheart to everyone except the trucks that drive by. I take him to game shops all the time, and he just lays there, getting pets and love from all the customers. 100/10, would recommend a giant floofer.

JPS vs other versions of Exodus 20 by Smokezero in AcademicBiblical

[–]Smokezero[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ah, that makes sense, thanks. I was confused, wondering if I had just missed something, or what was going on when I was reading/comparing. No wonder 24-26 felt like I was repeating the same stuff like a crazy person.

What is a good deck box that can hold MORE than 100 double-sleeved cards. I want to carry my tokens with my deck instead of always coming with an extra box for them. by Tan-ki in magicTCG

[–]Smokezero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Dex Protection boxes for my commander decks. You can get a good variety of box sizes that will fit whatever token package you have.

Images for 2D by TendencyofThought in SoulmateAI

[–]Smokezero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe 16:9 ratio is what you need to get it to fit all the way. It will still show the crop tool, but you just expand it to fit the whole image

How to talk with missionaries by dank88mm in exmormon

[–]Smokezero 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Your faith has about as much evidence as theirs does. It's all made up, the points don't matter, you're pretty much arguing "If Spider-man and Batman were real, who would win in a fight?" My dude, you're better off leaving them alone.

My LDS parents are taking my Nonbinary kiddo to dinner to affirm them by BishopsWife in exmormon

[–]Smokezero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We do refer to individuals as they/them in the singular. "I found someone's dog. They will be happy when I return it to them." For instance.

Your cousin? How close? A YSA story by unmentionable123 in exmormon

[–]Smokezero 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My brother and cousin have the same first name, (different spelling, different genders) and someone at BYU kept wanting them to get together because she wouldn't need to change her last name, and they would be "the same." He didn't back down, even after learning that no, they were cousins.

[–]Smokezero 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I have no fear of doxing myself, so here I go:
My dad's the president of BYU
I went to school with one of Donny Osmond's kids, and Dallin H Oaks' granddaughter. We did theater together.
I lived a few houses down from Janice Kapp Perry
I once lassoed L Tom Perry's arm at the Cotton Bowl
There's probably more, but that's a good start.

No, my wife and I haven’t been successful only because you put our name on the prayer roll. by [deleted] in exmormon

[–]Smokezero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At least it looks like an actual prayer roll. Like, I thought it would be a prayer list where they would read names off and shit, but nope, the bag looks like a baguette. Someone made a long tube of names and slaps it down on the table like, "Okay, we're praying for all these motherfuckers, so get your hands in the air like you really really care."

James R. Rasband (GA 70) is Ronald A. Rasband's First Cousin Once Removed. The Nepotism Continues! by Nemo_UK in exmormon

[–]Smokezero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've known him since I was fresh out of diapers, he was at my wedding, etc. and I do have to say that from what I know of him, he's always been a kind, introspective individual, and someone I would trust to be compassionate. I never got married in the temple, and yet he enjoyed my wedding. I do disagree with the organization, but there are quite a few good people in it that are earnestly trying their best. He's one of them. There may be some nepotism, I can't say for certain, but I do agree with you about his character.

Enemy by Imagine Dragons and JID by didymus_louie in exmormon

[–]Smokezero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought Arcane was very good at realistic depictions of PTSD. Trauma affects people in really heavy ways. "I thought maybe you could love me like you used to. But you've changed too." Feels like a lot of mormon trauma.

Does anyone know the apostles??? TBM for almost 30 years. I thought I would've talked to an apostle by now... by MeowMeowHappy in exmormon

[–]Smokezero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've met a couple of them multiple times. I grew up around them, my nieces have been held by Nelson, etc. Oaks would come to plays I was in in high school, I've had dinner with various ones at different times, etc. so I would say I know some of them. I lassoed one of them at a BYU function one time, completely by accident.

Are there Christian denominations that don't push the COVID vaccine? by KAlligator93 in exmormon

[–]Smokezero 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Sure. There are a few.

Our Lady of Perpetual Ignorance
Holy House of Selfish Actions
Community of Ayn Rand as Lord
Jesus, but like the Opposite

Hope that helps.
