Very sad… Sounds like suicide and at 76?

Interesting to this NeverMo how a cancer diagnosis and treatment of a 97-year-old was kept under wraps. What… death is unexpected of someone that age and with that condition?

Mormons aren’t exactly sitting at the cool kids’ table in politics. How they’re so quick to shut the door on other minority groups is almost like they’re trying to outdo the wretched evangelicals. Good riddance Hatch. You now have confirmation that there is no Mormon god.

Also, it's very sad when your daughters can't string together a coherent sentence on a Go Fund Me page. One daughter wrote things like, "cancer sucks but so does money" (WTF?) and used the word "EMINSE" for immense. (Her capped letters, not mine.) These grammatical errors distract from the message. I was reading the plea for financial assistance and got caught up on the

I was emphasizing the degree in the original post, because this TBM's husband has at least one advanced degree and this TBM finished her degree at 51-years-old now that the kids are out of the house. Do you know what's sad? This TBM's accountant husband told me that "a little debt" from student loans is good when I asked about his kids applying for scholarships and this TBM mother f

This is a doubly sad series of incidences. About 20 years ago, my NeverMo mother warned a TBM that their mutual friend (TBM too), with her 8 kids, is in a precarious situation by having no education and no work history in case something were to happen to her husband. TBM shrugged off my mother's concerns. Not too long later, the breadwinning father was diagnosed with brain cancer and ended u

I’ve mentioned on here about a Mormon family I know who had an elderly grandmother die of COVID. She caught COVID at a Mormon wedding of a relative she barely knew. Now her family members are contact tracing on Facebook, wondering aloud who went unvaccinated to the wedding. Do you know how stupid you look and sound doing this all on Facebook? All the children and grandchildren and no on

Gay Mormons have every reason to see the light and leave. The BoM has said eff you to them. Accept it. Tell others about the cult and leave for good.

Nevermo colleagues and friends talking about their kids getting scholarships to colleges and universities, desires to be in X profession, some kind of prestigious award or recognition… While you’re sitting there, quiet as a church mouse knowing your daughters the same age are trying to get pregnant and have kids. Or… did you say stuff, with pride, like “my daughter has green eye

In response to a TBM colleague’s 80-year-old Mormon mother-in-law getting COVID at a Temple wedding and dying of it, I heard a neverMo say this about hearing from this TBM talk about his family: “Whenever he is talking about his family, I’m always wondering ‘Where are the adults that should be making the decision instead?’” Seriously, where’s the wisdom from age in saying that yo

It is one of the worst social media websites. I reported homeless people using an unlocked side door of Chipotle to fill up their jugs with sugary fruit drinks. I was attacked relentlessly for being anti-homeless. And then the kicker: my University era, probably liberal neighbors turned into MAGA, Tea Party types. "What COVID?" Evidently the COVID pandemic skipped the homeles

… who are pushing their kids out the door to go to school, unvaccinated because they don’t trust government. Or… who have an elderly relative who died of COVID that she got from attending a wedding with unvaccinated, idiot Idahoans and, still, remain staunchly Mormon. (What loving god would take a 79-year-old woman from her family because she went to a wedding and got sick by

He didn’t wear his Mormonism on his sleeve and didn’t follow groupthink, so I don’t expect too many tears from TSCC.

He told his bishop the state the crimes happened in. Now he’s in a western state and a new ward.
