I just want to see how BYU is getting roasted today.

Bring baked goods.

I'm almost motivated to post a thread of all the coffee alternatives for caffeine sources that I've tried.

Living as a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints meant that I could not drink coffee. Caffeine consumption is between fine and condoned, leading to questionable choices.
Tariffs have rapidly increased the price of coffee—a drink with almost no nutritional value and lots of functional substitutes. Yet coffee may also be the one thing Americans can’t live without, @elcush.bsky.social writes:
The Drink That Americans Won’t Give Up Without a Fight
Coffee has almost no nutritional value and lots of substitutes. It’s also, apparently, too important to lose.

One of the Ig Nobels awarded this year was for this study demonstrating how a little alcohol can improve the capacity to speak in another language. Too bad missionaries are mostly under 21, because this might help a few of them.

There's something about the human experience that I think we're going to lose.

I knew an elderly couple that would only go to the Salt Lake Temple (back when they had people acting out the roles).

I am getting so old and grumpy.

My cousin invited all of us to a BBQ on Sunday to celebrate their engagement. They were proposed to, and they said yes. It was sweet. They posted their pictures online yesterday about the "surprise" engagement, and...

No. We all knew.

I'm supposed to be working, but this post has my subconscious occupied, so I'll be dumping my replies here.

First of all, I think "The Church of Jesus Christ of the End-of-Days Saints" would be a good choice.

I, however, think there would be a schism in the Church during and after the apocalypse.
If/when the apocalypse starts, will the Latter-day Saints changes their name to the "End-of-Days Saints"?

My father is part of his stake council. I don't know what their last meeting was about, but starting yesterday he started emailing me his fourth-Sunday talks for the last few months. And from some of his colleagues. And from some of his ward members.

What... am I supposed to do with these?

One time I went to the temple with a sibling. We were both single. We were sharing our favorite scripture passages of the week, and I guess seemed really energetic about it. A worker asked us to portray the example couple during the session, which is normally reserved for married individuals. /
