Season 3 of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives is here. Some friends at the Trib came up with a bingo card for anyone who'd enjoy playing along as they watch (or at least get a chuckle from this handy list of minor spoilers and most predictable moments). www.reddit.com/r/SecretsOfM...

I can sympathize with the challenges Mormon missionaries face in Fargo, but there’s got to be a better way than this. www.inforum.com/news/fargo/b... C’mon.

Like a stone cut from the mountain, exmo humor has rolled forth and filled our exit journeys with lolz. Goodbye to an OG master of the craft. Whether it's Mormonism or Social Media, we celebrate those who make like a tree and leave. Thank you, little roots.

So, a subreddit I created is now #3 on that platform in Reality TV. I‘m currently gathering AMA guests for a panel convo about the show through the lens of folks who‘ve been talking Mormonism far longer than SLoMW has been a thing. Anyone interested, LMK.

200 years ago, Alexis de Tocqueville feared Americans would become isolated in their individual pursuits and lose their concern for their fellows. He saw churches as part of the bulwark of civil society that guards against despotic government rule over “a flock of timid and hardworking animals.”

re Reddit and Mormonism (qua topic): Compared to other social channels, Reddit’s engagement stats are more opaque, typically only seen by posters and mods. Four screenshots showing “views” (lower left corner) to provide a sense of the reach available on that platform.

Through a Mormon lens, this trend can be viewed as a huge missed opportunity by the LDS leadership. What if Mormonism had spent the past few decades branding itself (and BYU) as all about great music, winning sports teams, and good clean fun? Instead of what they've been doing.
