@nappylion21 @PokeTCGiveaways Vendors are worse than scalpers.

@PokeTCGiveaways These people buying out everything and reselling it for triple the price like they’re a fucking vendor is absolutely criminal.

There’s no age limit to being a scalper 😆

@ElderChases @Time4RICO @jjfuller72 come on elder, this money needs to go to the very efficient government.

@Time4RICO @jjfuller72 So your in favor of stripping tax exempt status from all private colleges who have an endowment?

BYU's Total Institutional endowment grew to $3.71B as of Dec 2025, up around $380M from 2024. That places BYU around 25-28th nationally among FBS schools in total endowment. Overall total Assets up to $8.69B per balance sheet.

He is more likely to round us up than to respect us.

@DChadwickAuthor My apologies, I confused you with Dave Butler.

@MBW801 What the hell are you talking about?

My fellow Latter Day Saints, respectfully, it’s time to let this one go. This is an initiative whose time has passed. I know many people still deeply admire President Nelson and wish to carry on his teachings and wishes. I understand and respect that impulse. But policing people’s language in this matter, both inside the church and out, is not only rude but also intellectually disingenuous. We leaned into the term Mormon since the days of the prophet Joseph Smith. We owned it and took it on ourselves as our identity. We did that, nobody else. We call our belief system Mormonism. This is how language works. Not only that, it makes us distinct from other denominations. This was the whole point of the restoration. Joseph Smith restored the gospel away from the apostasy that had been happening for almost two thousand years. A distinct and defining term for this is appropriate. Nobody believes we worship Mormon. This is absurd. There is no confusion of who members of the church actually worship. We worship Jesus Christ. I have never, not once in my life, been ashamed of being a Mormon. And neither should we. With all due respect to President Nelson, I implore you to heed President Hinckley’s wise words on this matter. But not only his, also President Monson’s: Dare to be a Mormon; Dare to stand alone. Dare to have a purpose firm; Dare to make it known.

@swinefluchu @collectdotrip @Pokemon It’s almost as if there isn’t a shortage of cards being opened.

@collectdotrip @Pokemon Id love to be a part of some concerted effort to get cards to kids. Even if you aren't a collector and only see this as an investment, if youre holding long term youre shooting yourself in the foot by not doing so. Who gonna buy your product if today's kids dont get something now

Hey @Pokemon Macys is currently selling your product for 3x MSRP. You can sell us their entire allocation for all future drops and we will not price a penny above MSRP. We'll put it all in writing. Can help you get a handle on your distributors as well. Let's start getting cards to kids, collectors, and players at reasonable prices.

@YostyTX @Grownded Should I disregard the parts of the Bible written after this was written as well?

@Grownded Would you settle for a Galatians 1:8?

I've said before, I'm an Ex Mormon who converted to the true Church of Jesus Christ I've read the book of Mormon, I've read the Doctrine and covenants, and even the secret Pearl of Great Price and Lectures on Faith. And I never learned that Jesus was the brother of Satan. They never taught me that. Ever. I never learned about the real Jesus, only the "Other" one that was the eternal divine Son of God that was born, crucified, and raised the third day to redeem the entire world. They never taught me that God lived on planet kolob having spirit babies with his polygamous wives. Tell me. What else didn't those Mormons teach me?

@Yo_Geertz @jwalker_sports @DeadAirwithJDW No wonder you were canned everywhere you went.

@jwalker_sports @DeadAirwithJDW So in other words, we are BYU’s bitch. Can USU pay for a soaking advertisement on the big board with Davies picture on it?

I received, via records request, a copy of the agreement for the Utah State/BYU basketball series announced earlier this week. Details from that contract are included in an updated version of my article about the series published earlier this week. Those details include how much BYU is paying the Aggies for the visit to the Marriott Center and the uneven distribution of revenue for the game at the Delta Center. cachevalleydaily.com/sports/utah-st…

@TrapRonald69 @edpwatch_ That is from his video of when they busted him and got the police involved.

@edpwatch_ What are you doing in the photo with him, you literally cant be in a picture with a pedo with out being one

Mason is FUCKED 🫪

@maatmouse @NolanAnalyst They? Is Brad Pitt making a return as well?

@NolanAnalyst I love it when the unusual casting choices reveal all the transphobics and racists. They’ll be great.

I think little John was one of the cyclist. @Manhattva mentioned that one of the cyclist had a terrible mustache. Him and @joewheat27 are the type of people who would harass people.

@FightofFaith I don’t belong to Christian.

Breaking: 31,102 verses in the Bible. Mormon Jesus isn’t found in any of them.

Exmos think this is a dunk on Mormon. Let me remind you what Christ taught "If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first." — John 15:18

@brandon09091022 @Drempts were you alive when pokemon first came out? It was the same.

@Drempts The big problem is kids are unable to get any Pokemon cards due to scalpers and higher prices. If this is not addressed now. Then there will be no collectors 30 years from now.

If you’re collecting Pokémon for the future (20-30 years from now). You have to try and think, “what kids now are going to call grails then” 🧠

@foxonabox_ Question, can furries vote?

@jared_shult What about 70k trucks? If you are interested I will invite you over my local Kroger. Happens almost every time I check out.

Show me one person with a Ferrari and food stamps. I’ll wait

@foxonabox_ Bro, you party was flying billionaires to the Middle East to rape kids.

@LemonLamplight @SenatorHick They don’t understand this. They will call you racist but it is the truth.

@SenatorHick Wait a minute.... Are you saying that four years of WIDE OPEN BORDERS and refusing to health screen the incoming immigrants, resulted in a rise in third-world diseases??? Who could've possibly foreseen that!?

Colorado measles cases by year: 2014: 1 2015: 1 2016: 2 2017: 0 2018: 0 2019: 1 2020: 0 2021: 0 2022: 0 2023: 1 2024: 0 2025: 36 2026: 17… so far. For a decade, it was nearly zero.  Then RFK Jr.

@stackerco TLDR I subscribe to the top tier Mormon stories subscription that allows John to have his way with me. John has started a “church” in Mormon stories and used it thd way he thought JS did.

I need to clarify something because people keep saying, “Why are you defending John Dehlin so much?” “Are you John Dehlin?” or “Why do you love Mormon Stories so much?” That’s not what this is about. John Dehlin and Mormon Stories is not the point. Whether John is perfect, annoying, flawed, useful, biased, helpful, or wrong or right sometimes is not the point. He’s all the above like we all are. This is about abuse of institutional power. The LDS Church is not some tiny local congregation trying to protect itself from confusion. It is a $300B dollar religious institution with lawyers, PR teams, global reach, and enormous cultural power in Mormon spaces. So when that institution goes after one of its most visible critics after 21 years, I do not buy that this is merely about sanserif fonts, sun rays, or brand confusion. Come on. Nobody with two functioning brain cells is accidentally listening to Mormon Stories thinking, “Wow, I love this official church podcast where ex members, historians, abuse survivors, LGBT members, and critics spend three hours discussing church problems.” This bothers me because it looks like a powerful institution using a legal argument to attack a dissenting voice. And the reflexive response from members might bother me more: The church acts and the critic becomes the villain. The faithful defend the institution over the individual. Every. Time. I don’t think John Dehlin is perfect at all and that Mormon Stories is above criticism. It isn’t. I think it’s an important voice right now but there are also things I don’t like about it too. And this to me isn’t because I believe the church can never protect its trademarks. It obviously can. What bothers me with this is it fits a pattern that drives me mad: when the institution is criticized, the critic becomes the problem. It happened with other excommunicated critics and whistleblowers and abuse victims and the SEC issue and anytime someone publicly challenges the image of the institution. Had the church ever been called to accountability by its members? If a member does, the person speaking out is always framed as bitter, deceptive, attention-seeking, anti-Mormon, or dangerous. That is what I am reacting to. This is not about defending John but about watching an institution use its power against a critic and then watching members pretend the real issue is font choice and light rays.

@ytpizoza @notjpqt Gatekeepers are weird.

@notjpqt Just did it said around 500k which is 10x less for a more unique card of a more popular pokemon, keep basing your projections from when the hobby didn’t have your people in it 😂

This stack of mega zards is gonna be 100k in 5 years
