Thoughts about Russell M. Nelson. hightokolob.substack.com/p/russell-m-...

Not re-promoting Dieter is going to be extremely funny.

End of a baffling era

A sampling of this anti-LGBT hate screed as wall decor.

all these spectacles in our society got me like

"SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell... said propellant transfer worried her more than docking Starships in orbit. 'Hopefully it’s not as hard as some of my engineers think it could be,' she said." Bet ya $100 it's a lot harder. spacenews.com/nasa-safety-...

I do wish it was more well-known that the Mormons are meatpuppeting their 101 year old prophet and pretending he's still actively leading the church and getting revelations from God.

This review of a book of Ashtar messages got me thinking: can Mormon patriarchal blessings be considered a more low-key version of New Age channeling?

The sort of thing you read in the Background section of the Wikipedia page on a space disaster.

This just keeps getting funnier every year

The change that needs to be made is switching to a lander that actually will work, dipshit.

Spencer Cox—whose solution to droughts and nearly inevitable environmental collapse in his state is to pray about it 👍

FYI a miracle was performed yesterday. "Andersen... was interrupted by technical difficulties when the microphone and sound system unexpectedly shut off... missionaries who sat in the back of the gym were miraculously able to hear Elder Andersen’s testimony. www.thechurchnews.com/leaders/2025...

"It was all a stage set, a series of elaborate props for playing at living in the future." - William Gibson, The Gernsback Continuum

Relatedly: remember how Russell M. Nelson is still alive?

Non-linear quantum mechanics is sending me.

So you know how there were two Handbooks: the blue one for everyone and the red one for only leaders. Are there any other Exmormons who remember rumors of a third, green Handbook that was secret and only given to like Temple Presidents?

Two hours out from the Starship test flight and Elon is live-tweeting anti-immigrant propaganda.

Third time's the charm for the tenth time's the charm test flight!

Still blows my mind that Elon Musk showed this slide and none of his fans went hold on, that's obviously bullshit.

IFT-10 LETS GO

I've often wondered if this influenced early Mormon beliefs that the moon was inhabited.

Starship is on the pad, Elon's retweeting soft core AI pornography. All systems nominal.

A fun thing about Starship test flight live streams is listening to the commentators have what I'd recognize as a faith crisis in real time.

Real BYU alum know that the premarital sex rules don't remove the distraction of sex but actually multiply it by 1000%.

I can't help but find it amusing that the FBI agent assigned to dealing with Robert Jay Matthews, who converted to Mormonism, was named Joseph Smith.

I've had fun with the LDSBot.

The Air Force thinks other countries are going to start using combat Cybertrucks? Color me skeptical. The source document reads like a Tesla ad. www.twz.com/land/air-for...

I was so disappointed that I never got to cast out evil spirits on my mission.

Buying more Palantir stock has ended up being a smart investment for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

An interesting nugget in this article is that the church has a Reputation Management division, and they are the ones who handle paying TikTokkers.

This makes me feel bad for members. They're being asked to accept Joseph Smith's polygamy after the church denied it for a century, and one of the sources they are using is the guy who they blame for setting the wheels in motion for Smith's assassination. Honestly, it's cruel.

It's unfortunate that Dune's most prescient prediction, the Butlerian Jihad, has been changed in these 21st century iterations from "humanity realized that over relying on thinking machines diminished their natural faculties" to "fight the giant evil robots."

When is YoungBoy Never Broke Again going to follow up on his desire to convert to Mormonism?

The scriptural reference for the church's WiFi network. "And now, my son, I have somewhat to say concerning the thing which our fathers call a ball, or director—or our fathers called it Liahona, which is, being interpreted, a compass; and the Lord prepared it."

It's the weekend, baby

The what?? 🛸🔼

Flying home from SLC. At the gate, see a guy on my flight who looks like Evan McMullin. Tweeted that I thought I saw him, tagged him in the tweet. Hit send. McMullin immediately grabs his phone from his pocket, looks at it, and starts scanning the terminal, presumably trying to find me.

The only temple stone I'm interested in is the pink marble used in the old endowment video to decorate Elohim's astral throne room.

My favorite part of the Apollo program was when the Grumman CEO siphoned money out of the lunar lander development program to create the simulacrum of an adoring girlfriend.

Them: what's Utah like? Me:

guess it's time for the zoomers to fall for this

An exhibit from the children's edition of the Doctrine and Covenants.

Lori Vallow quoting President Nelson in the Nate Eaton interview 🤌

His honor code violation is an alleged assault. Some equivalent things that BYU believes rises to the moral level of an honor code violation: Being in an LGBT relationship, having a beard, drinking coffee, losing your faith in Mormonism.

Just go all in and declare a day of paying 10% of your money to the Mormon church to stop the drought. www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/manual...

Big day for it being Joever.

I've been thinking about the Kranz Dictum a lot over the past few weeks.
