@DLCampanile @KelseaJ112 Unfortunately Crio Bru can't be packed the way ground coffee can. TBH Cacao is more woody and not hard like a ground coffee bean, and it brews more like a tea.

Anti-Mormonism has never been about sincerely converting LDS. If it were it wouldn't be so riddled with lies and misrepresentations. It is about preventing people from listening to LDS. It has the same goals as Anti-Semitism, which is even more ridiculous and fraudulent, to make the target so radioactive no one would consider siding with them.

@actsofapostles_ Based on the daily discourse here and my family’s decades of of experience being “Mormon” in the Bible Belt… I have never seen evidence of love, only contempt.

Acts of the Apostles
Acts of the Apostles@actsofapostles_·
My experience, and this is no doubt uncharitable, is that the average person who tries to evangelize ‘Mormons’ fails at both. I think this is because the evangelizer both loves and despises the ‘Mormon’ at the same time. That particular combo creates sloppy thinking.
Chaise the Bloodstained Saint@WMCHerrington

@kylebeshears Yeah, unfortunately today one of the essentials of trying to evangelize Mormons is not simply knowing more about the Christian faith than the average Christian, but also knowing more about what the LDS church teaches than the average Latter-Day Saint.

@nerd_cookies It could but it was a monkey's paw bargain. It destroyed the paper in the process.

The very concept of the success is deeply immoral. If you are successful the other is loser. We shouldn’t accept it. We should prosper or suffer together. Otherwise it is satanic.

@FiredUpCoug Too late. The ring found the most unlikely of creatures. Now he has to take it to Mordor, or get his nephew to do it. No exceptions.

So a while back, the backflow preventer valve on my parents' sprinkler system broke. Their contractor fixed it and covered it with the fake boulder. Today I discovered this is how he fixed it.

I want to explain precisely why this is so bad. I am not a stickler for historical accuracy, but the goal of the designer is to sell the audience on their vision, to make them buy into the world. Compare Jack Kirby's costume designs for Julius Caesar below. They could not be less accurate, but they sell a sense of grandeur, epic scale, a scifi vision of an empire in turmoil. They have style, substance. Perhaps a bit too much, but Kirby never did anything by half measures. One look and I'm sold, even though I know how inaccurate they are. What do the costumes for Nolan's Odyssey do in comparison? kirbymuseum.org/blogs/effect/c…

I have never seen historical costuming THIS bad. It's not even "Shoestring budget community theater" bad, it's worse. It's so off, it's just skew to anything in historical costuming. Holland looks like he's wearing a Hanes sweatshirt under a bad scifi cosplay of Metal Gear Solid's snake. Berthal is generic medieval with budget scifi armor sourced from an 1980s episode of Doctor Who. Good grief.

When texting with your phone, do you leave your hand sign emojis the default Simpsons toon yellow? Or do you deliberately change it to something else?

@JWhitebread1 Ho Lee Krap. I'm stealing this and sending it to a coworker/ plumber. The first people impacted by a backflow event are the ones who own the backflow presenter. Hopefully you can get it fixed quickly.
