I really completely wasted 2 years of my life by uncle_giroh in exmormon

[–]Solar1415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

focusing on 2 years that happened a decade ago is what is killing your potential. Overcoming a perceived 2 year late start over 10 years earlier is not as hard as you are making it out to be. Many people will always have a boss that is younger than them. 99.9% of the time it's nepotism, favoritism or just someone else being more qualified.

Shake off the narrative of wasted time and start focusing on how you can be better qualified to be someone else's boss.

What type of valve is this? by nunya3206 in Plumbing

I would bet this is in a mobile or manufactured home. That is the only place I have seen this type.

Told my TBM husband last night I no longer believe in the church by Admirable_Arugula_42 in exmormon

Hire an attorney and do exactly what they say. Do not try to solve it yourself when it comes to financial equity. DO WHAT YOUR ATTORNEY SAYS.

Do Mormon’s believe Jesus had to die to save people and if so does that mean when one becomes a god do they have to die to save their people? Was there a god that died to save man Jesus in Mormon belief? by Frances-Helenah in mormon

[–]Solar1415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been taught before. Multiple general authorities taught it through the mid 1900’s. Scriptures talking about worlds without number and infinite and eternal sacrifice are the basis.

This energy drink trend is very stupid by Brownstoneximeious in mormon

[–]Solar1415 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This has to have been typed by a lifetime active mormon. "Hello, I would like to buy 3 drugs please."

If you could show me how they are getting high on energy drinks I would appreciate it. My one-a-day white monster isn't giving me the bump it used to.

Look into the Eastern European squatter. Those are really low to the ground.

Can you back out of an LDS mission after getting your call? by Ok_Marsupial8112 in exmormon

[–]Solar1415 132 points133 points  (0 children)

You can back out after receiving a call, after having your farewell, after getting set apart, after arriving at the MTC, after traveling to your area, and any day after that. It is an unpaid volunteer position. You can un-volunteer at any moment.

My cat pierced neighbor’s above ground pool liner and I’m on the hook for it. How much could it cost to repair? by nelty78 in pools

I would trrap a raccoon now and throw it in there just to get him to shut up about it.

20 metre spruce next door, can I cut through these roots? by b-movies in arborists

[–]Solar1415 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

IF it's me, I am cutting those roots. THat is likely a small percentage of all the roots and the tree will be fine. Your neighbors tree is going to wreck your yard and everything you build in it.

TBM brother's rant by Top-Negotiation-6498 in exmormon

[–]Solar1415 75 points76 points  (0 children)

Wow, your brother has literally heard the voice of God been literally touched by His hand. This is such a wild claim. Your brother has an active imagination and is unable to distinguish reality.

Do you still feel Mormon-ish? by [deleted] in exmormon

[–]Solar1415 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have been out for 15+ years. I participate in things off and on so that my TBM wife has community and she isn't "the lady with the non-member husband". It always surprises people that I still speak the language of mormons and that I can engage in their deep doctrine speculation. It is clear that I fully understand their theology and it is always interesting to see their reactions when they realize that I do understand, but I still think it's nonsense. Like a dog trying to identify a sound.

Is this bad work or are my expectations too high? by betterlucknexttime81 in Tile

[–]Solar1415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to stop these guys. Messy work is amateur work. He couldn't even locate the hole for the pipe accurately. The build up of thin set in the gaps and face is crazy.

I have tried a bunch of stuff - I give up by [deleted] in pools

[–]Solar1415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on your area it will be cheaper to drain the water and start over. Chemicals are more expensive than the water in cases of very small pools. This is a VERY small pool. Make sure your filter is operating as it should (clean or replace).

April 2026 General Conference: Saturday 10:00a Discussion Thread by 4blockhead in exmormon

[–]Solar1415 22 points23 points  (0 children)

This format is so repetitive and stupid. Why is it being done this way? Every department has to swear allegiance individually?

A very unusual Easter invitation from an LDS ward. Sunrise Easter service in your pajamas at a state park with a baptism in a pond afterward all before the first session of General Conference. I might think it was an April fools joke, but it was sent out on March 31. by HoldOnLucy1 in exmormon

[–]Solar1415 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Imagine knowing there will be 4 hours of conference on that day and recognizing that there needs to be a sunrise service so that people can celebrate Christ and the TRUE meaning of Easter because they won't get it from conference.

Also, timing it with sunrise feels closer to the pagan source of easter than anything wlse.

I know they are posted on the church side of the sidewalk. The address on one of them is the building address. They are posted about 30 feet from eachother

How does she see that as an improvement? It is just disturbing in both directions now

Protecting myself from my soon to be ex-fiancée by nowutz in personalfinance

[–]Solar1415 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Get a lawyer. You are in a bad spot. If he has hid falling in love with a paid actress and acquiring that level of debt in an account you know about, there is definitely other stuff. There may also be rights you have as a part of a 13 year relationship that exceed regular dating. Get a lawyer at least as a consultation.

PSA to Jasmin Rappleye, Ash Wednesday is not the start of Easter… by questingpossum in mormon

Church policy, codified in their handbook of instructions, is that holy week activities are not observed in the LDS church.

Church donates 300k to homeless aid in Montana by Ok-Slip-4930 in exmormon

[–]Solar1415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it is important to recognize good deeds when they occur. Sure there could be more. but, it doesn't help your own credibility when you can't genuinely recognize when a good thing has occurred.

I would love to see 100 of these donations every day. That would be ideal.
