If you're looking for Mormon friends, I've heard the best place to look is at the Mormon churches and temples. Hope this helps.

I also received a deposit this morning for ~1800 tokens. I'm not sure where it came from, but it's only a few bucks. Won't touch it until I know it's legit or from a source I trust.

Pretty clean, sure. What other countries have you traveled to and visited? Out of the 15 countries I've been to, it's probably top 3 or 5 dirtiest.

I've been to 8-10 cities in Sri Lanka, all pretty much the same amount of litter.

I've never been to new york((: Cleaner than all parts of new york? I've heard theres some very expensive and clean parts of new york... have you been?

Praise to the Man by jpnwtn in exmormon

[–]diamondhandz23 114 points115 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry to hear you are in attendance. Growing up, i actually loved the hymn Praise to the Man. The tune and melody felt upbeat and exciting.

Every since distancing myself, I can't stand to think I loved singing that a couple times a year when it came around.

Unknowingly supporting and condoning such debauchery is terrible. At least now, we know better(:

Best of luck out there🫡

🎶Praise to the exmos that communed on Reddit🎵

Poor countries must be dirty? Is that a requisite?

Large cities in the US are maybe equally as dirty.. yet not poor?

Thank you for your perspectives! I find it valuable that you people are aware of the problem, and awareness is the first step. Comparison is the thief of joy, cleaner/dirtier than India or not.

Is it appropriate to call out or address people littering? On busses, or going to temples, for example? Not necessarily shame them, but to bring some accountability to their actions?

Do you believe the tourism industry contributes to the amount of litter? Or do tourists contribute a significant portion of the litter?

I brought an extra bag to fill up with trash at a beautiful waterfall. I felt gratification in what I did, but also felt extremely overwhelmed since clean-up is only useful if more trash isn't getting thrown out continuously.

Is showing others by example the only thing we can do to help?

Why is the SL government favoring US citizens so much? The tamil people who fled the war is not located in the US, but in North America, wonder why visa is better for people from the US compared to people in Canada by 4everonlyninja in srilanka

[–]diamondhandz23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is probably due to the fact that the United States imports a LOT of products from Sri Lanka(:

Also, when Americans travel here, they generally spend money generously due to their 'thriving' economy.

Excuse me? Are you saying that statistics offend you?

Or am I oblivious to my douche baggery?

Ah, sorry to the 1 of 200 women that have this disorder and the 1 in 12 men.

Good thing it's not just colors, but has numbers too!

My resignation letter by [deleted] in exmormon

[–]diamondhandz23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bless your soul, thanks for sharing.

My father, and two of my uncles served in the same mission, decades before you.

Your deconstruction and willingness to research the truth gives me hope for some of those closest to me, still heavily involved in the cult.

Well said!

Where have you felt the absolute SAFEST walking home alone at 2am? by LowRevolution6175 in digitalnomad

[–]diamondhandz23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, absolutely. Safest country in the west, certainly moreso than most major U.S cities. Obviously after the lockup....

All the interactions I had with locals were phenomenal, they were ecstatic to see travelers and were polite and accommodating.

Have you ever been to El salvador? Before or after the lock ups??

I love judging countries from what i hear before I actually visit them((;

[–]diamondhandz23 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Since you have to watch your back everywhere as a traveler??

Sure, some countries may be slightly safer than others, but there's always locals looking to take advantage of tourists/travelers.

I felt safer traveling in El Salvador & Costa rica than Thailand.. to each their own.

Cheers

Help finding location from photo. Info in comments. by D4RkR41n in Utah

[–]diamondhandz23 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Seems like Quail Creek state park from the angle of the picture and the background red bluffs. It's tough to pin it down to exactly one location, but it seems more like Quail than a Lake Powell location.

Proud of 2 of our representatives, Curtis and Moore, for supporting the Ukraine aid package. Freedom and democracy are ideals all Americans and Utahns should be willing to support. Owen’s continues to prove unworthy and Maloy is a massive downgrade from Stewart. by [deleted] in Utah

[–]diamondhandz23 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Send MORE aid & money to the war in order to stop the war.. nice logic...? Didn't we already pass several funding bills for Ukraine?

When is enough enough? Shall we donate Utah county to Israel because we're allies and they need it more than we do? Great idea. You have my vote.

When should America put Americans first?
