Shadowland - News/Culture/Spirit

@EruditeTogether Yes and no.

I am a Christian, and I have two daughters. Both my daughters attend public school. When my daughters were old enough to go to school I felt so much pressure from the Christian culture to homeschool them. I went to public school and had a really good experience, but everyone was treating public school like it was the devils playground. I tried to homeschool my oldest in preschool and I realized how terribly unequipped I was to teach. I didn’t have the discipline, nor the mental capacity to teach from home. I think public school is great. The teachers are all so intentional, the school counselors are lovely, and their principal remembers their names and things about them. We are very involved parents. We go on field trips, take them to school events, and go to all their conferences. Honestly, public school gets way too much hate.

@WCpper @3YearLetterman No, I expect people to know the difference between the Irish flag and Scottish flag. Basic education.

@ShadowlandBlog @3YearLetterman It’s okay, Shaddowpuppet, not everyone has a vintage globe at their disposal. Coach gets these right because he actually owns one.

I literally cannot name one thing that Ireland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 does better than America

@Liz_Wheeler I actually 100% agree with this. The personal in-fighting is stupid, useless, and distracting. People can have their opinions but we don't need feuds.

These podcast wars are embarrassing. Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Mark Levin, Ben Shapiro, Candace Owens... What are we, toxic mean girls in high school? These vulgar ad hominems being hurled back and forth by leaders of the conservative movement…I still have absolutely no idea what they're talking about. They never mention the substance on which they disagree. We in the conservative movement—especially in the media—are supposed to be thought leaders. And when you’re a thought leader, you are supposed to persuade people about why your position is best. That's your job. That's my job. We are supposed to challenge and dismantle ideas that are bad, dangerous, and wrong. But is that what we're doing? No, that's not what we're seeing here. The biggest voices on the Right are acting like a nasty episode of Real Housewives. What’s next? Pulling hair extensions and scratching? This is not the highest and best use of our platforms, voices, and this influence that we have been afforded. The midterms are around the corner and the only group being helped by these petty, superficial, juvenile spats are the Democrats. We are facing an ACTUAL crisis in our nation that everyone is ignoring because they're addicted to drama. We have ONE CHANCE at mass deportations. ONE CHANCE. And we're squandering it because the leaders of the movement would rather… beef?

@BreeSolstad It's so cringe, tbh.

This is what emotionalism looks like. This is what a pop concert looks like. This is NOT what worship looks like.

@mksabino You do you. But I'm inspired by the idea of exaltation and feel not only makes complete sense, but is a testament of God's love.

@ShadowlandBlog Jesus was speaking of earthly judges, specifically the Jewish judges. The closer I got with God, the more LDS theology made me very uncomfortable and I had to renounce it. You're right,I needed to undo a lot of programming in order to see the truth for what it is (John 8:32).

It's terrifying seeing the amount of LDS who have a god-complex and think they can do no wrong because "their church is the one true church". Not much room for humility. They'll become gods of their own and create whatever they want, even in direct opposition to God's truth.

@allie__voss It was cute. I lol'd.

Hi! I made this meme and I am, in fact, a woman I’m sorry if a man has made you feel stupid for asking something like this, but this is just a lighthearted joke about the difficulties of planning as a couple

@DLoesch This is like a tag team wrestling match, everyone's jumping in and picking a side.

The females running their mouths about another dude’s anatomy would be THE FIRST ones to scream “sEXiSM” if it was done to them.

@Movies_analyst I love the style and animation on it. Timeless.

Sleeping Beauty cost $6 million, making it the most expensive Walt Disney Productions film at the time — more than Cinderella and Snow White. Inspired by medieval art, it took nearly a decade to make and became Disney’s last feature hand inked before switching to xerography.

@MelonieMac You go! Dieting myself as well, so always inspired by others.

From keto back to carnivore for the week... or maybe forever

@megynkelly @marklevinshow Welp, it's time for Mark to show us "the great one" and let us be the judge.

Micropenis Mark @marklevinshow thinks he has the monopoly on lewd. He tweets about me obsessively in the crudest, nastiest terms possible. Literally more than some stalkers I’ve had arrested. He doesn’t like it when women like me fight back. Bc of his micropenis.

@dom_lucre This is why you never walk with your back to traffic.

🔥🚨HARD NEWS: This Indian man was distracted by his Red Bull and was hit by a truck on the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway.

@Rothmus lmao

Lmao based.

@pimomormon Jesus didn't start a charity, he started a church. Temples will dot the earth. Nevertheless, the Church donated over a billion dollars to charity last year. But if you think the Church should give it all away, take it up with Jesus.

#Mormon #Jesus

@JS_StrngstSldr It tracks and confirms what I suspected.

1974 to 2024 Growth of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

@Protestia How lame can you be?

A young girl shares with her family that she's been selected to serve as a Mormon missionary. This is incredibly sad, and we pray that she gets converted out of her false religion and cult.

@iiTzz_Tyrell Had this convo with my son yesterday. Told him that while that is indeed flawed thinking, he still needs to make an effort to wear a shirt and tie because of social/cultural cues and to avoid the reality of judgmental people.

I use to think growing up, he’s wearing Nike shoes to church? He’s in jeans? No tie? Not a white dress shirt? I’ve realized as I’ve gotten older that that is such flawed thinking. The only thing that matter is they are attending and trying. Because I know that I’m doing my best, and that’s all we can ask for.

Oh hey, it's DEI night at the Oscars. Is anyone surprised?

@VVenerabilis I agree. People forget that they were basically a-holes poking the bear. They conveniently leave that part out.

Yes. let's be reminded of the Mountain meadows Massacre. A wagon train from Missouri spent the entire trip from Slat Lake City to Cedar City - bragging about killing Joseph Smith - bragging about killing Mormon men - bragging about raping Mormon women - physically assaulting Mormons in Utah - stealing from Mormons in Utah - verbally harassing and threatening Mormons in Utah - threatening to murder Mormons while in Utah - threatening to rape Mormon women while in Utah - threatened to return to Utah with an army from California to kill Mormons and pillage the countryside And they were ambushed and killed for it. The Francher wagon train may not have deserved death, but they did *everything* in their power to ensure this outcome. And the RLDS lived in peace because they abandoned the faith and became just like every other basic, vanilla, flavorless Christian denomination in the area.
