My girlfriend left a tampon at my apartment and idk where the left one is. Anyone know where I can get a single left tampon to keep a set here for emergencies?
Utah culture is knowing somebody whose mom’s roommate’s friend’s sister one time met Ted Bundy but felt a prompting from the Holy Ghost to not go on a date with him
Everybody say a quick prayer for Tom, my Airbnb host who, upon request to use his toaster, told me with pain in his voice that “she took the toaster when she left me”
Also if you have a few dollars, please consider donating to Days for Girls International to provide menstrual care products to people with periods. Your donation will literally help girls stay in school who otherwise would not be able to!
My grandparents — LDS temple workers and former stake patriarch — are taking my cousin and his boyfriend to dinner later this week. This is love. This is ministering :’-)
I love the U but the problem is that since I've transferred from BYU I'm just not edgy anymore. I can literally drink coffee or bring up feminism in class and not be talked down to by 24 year old RMs and I kind of miss that, it's quite a rush
i'm about to graduate from UVU after transferring out of BYU and i just want to say that UVU has cheap tuition, small class sizes, a robust honors program, quality professors who care a lot, good student jobs, grads who go to elite grad programs, and attainable scholarships

i'm at my brother's apartment in provo and his roommate is having a loud phone conversation about how god is teaching him to be more selective with dating by prompting him to break things off with a girl because she's gonna be a financial burden because she's studying special ed
I think my brain is just broken but K***u getting chastised by dezn*t for inviting immodestly-dressed women to his covid rave is honest to god the funniest thing I’ve ever seen. like the pointlessness of this discourse is breaking me
@BYU
Does this mean that the promises of the BYU Honor Code Director are void? In which he told a group of students that same-sex dating and expressions of romance are acceptable at BYU and not punishable by the Honor Code Office?
You mean to tell me that Kwaku’s girlfriend graduated from high school this year 🤨 and that he’s 25 🤨 and that the photos he tweeted of her are her HIGH SCHOOL GRAD PHOTOS 🤨🤨🤨
Lds church: we're gonna switch to a two hour blo–
Exmormons: well I already go to ZERO hours of church 🤣🤣🤣 also did you know that joseph smith had 33 wives?
so I was in a DezNat Discord server (big group chat) for several months in 2018 and 2019. here's some of what I saw:
1/18 (thoughts at the end)
cw: violence, rape, racism, misogyny, ableism, transphobia, homophobia, slurs
Ok folks I gotta clear something up:
A lot of people are speculating that we’re getting married just to Dᴇʀғ
This is NOT true!
The REAL reason we’re getting married is so Julia can join the LDS Wives Facebook group
Thank you for supporting us in this endeavor
My brother who is currently on a mission has received so little information about the pandemic that this weekend he didn’t know what social distancing was and now he’s worried about martial law
The Church needs to do BETTER to educate and protect its missionaries right now
@BYU
These are YOUR STUDENTS — many of whom are depressed and suicidal because of your policies — who continue to get lied to and backstabbed by people who should be doing everything in their power to protect them
utah's abortion ban will go into effect any day now (not in 30 days)
just know that utahns WON'T be breaking the law by getting abortions in other states and the closest clinics to salt lake will be in glenwood springs, colorado (5.5 hour drive), and las vegas (6 hour drive)
Y’all remember those soap dispensers in the temple baptistery locker room showers? You’d walk in there with an oversized jumpsuit clinging to your cold, wet body and wonder what was in there. Was it shampoo, body wash, 3-in-1? Hand soap? I’ll never know.
In todays edition of ~wtf
@byuidaho
~ college level Anatomy class puts censor bubbles because p*rn I guess (organs, the nervous system, and vein diagrams). I don’t censor these for my kids of any age, I can’t you guys
In case you see claims that KUTV is fake liberal news, know that KUTV is a news company ~based in Utah~ and owned by the Sinclair Broadcast Group, an established ally of Trump.
The media isn’t “out to get” Kwaku, he just did and said stuff publicly and they’re covering it lol
my in-laws did their secret santa gift exchange today and my brother in law disregarded everything on my wish list and gifted me custom “to young men only” merch 😭
mormon high schoolers outside of utah are gonna be fighting for their lives next monday when they get back to school and they’re bombarded with “did you do any soaking this weekend” 😭
When you’re hanging out with a group of Latter-day Saints and you don’t know if it’s ok to swear but then somebody tests the waters and drops a “hella” and then the floodgates open
bro, people who only use instagram are just raw dogging life with just 0 knowledge that a top-5 most popular byu professor called a former student of his the antichrist at 1 in the morning in reply to something tweeted by one of the ~numerous~ nazis he follows
pitchfork hasn’t dropped the TTPD review yet because they’re still trying to work out the witness protection details for the poor writer who’s about to give this album a 6.3
lds leaders: gender differences are eternal and fundamental; god made two genders so they can complement each other and we need both so they can teach each other from their own UNIQUE perspectives
lds leaders every april and october: women may have one tenth of the speaking time
How do Julia and I tell our parents that we’re never having children because of the terrible mental health genes they passed on to both of us? Like should we make a group chat
absolutely no reason for "kirtland" and "kirkland" to both exist in the same universe. it's too stressful. we need mormonism to fight costco and all agree to just completely erase one of those words from our collective memory. i can't keep going like this
We didn’t trust anyone passing us on the road to take our picture so we set up my camera with a tripod and blindly framed these photos and took them using the remote you can see in my hand in all of these
byu’s top religion professor telling his 37,000 followers to read a thread that analyzes the shape of joseph smith’s skull is the funniest thing that has ever happened on this app
matthew gong’s “my LDS apostle father is literally not an ally. please stop emailing him asking how to be gay and mormon” blog post has people asking a lot of questions that are already answered by matthew’s mention that his dad is an LDS apostle
Really wish we had a school in Provo with a private police force, a fleet of security workers, cameras in and on all their buildings, 30,000 students and a deeply-ingrained culture of ratting people out so that we could figure out who’s doing this
Hey guys, white nationalists are posting propaganda on
@BYU
campus. These come in the form of stickers advertising a group called Patriot Front. This is a white nationalist group advocating for the creation of a white ethnostate by revolution.
there's no way crumbl is complaining about copycats when they copied chip cookies a whole year after chip opened and crumbl's only initial innovation on the chip business model (of delivering a box with 4 massive chocolate chip cookies for $10) was... pink boxes??
probably my favorite take from K**** party gate was from this deznat guy who commented on the video from the party and was like “this is what I imagine it looked like on the boat to the promised land when Nephi was tied up and had to watch everyone around him be wicked”
While I was walking home from the bus stop I passed multiple anti-vaxxers protesting outside of BYU’s stadium (?) as mr brightside played in the distance. It’s gameday in Provo
Question for the people who put their Eagle Scout award on their resumés: what’s it like to have literally hundreds of employers knocking on your door every day? Like geez, can you save some jobs for the rest of us? Plz, our country has 40% unemployment 😢
PSA
The LDS Church is releasing a new handbook Wed. and Oaks and his wife are doing a youth-specific face 2 face event next Sunday (Feb 23)
It’s speculated that both will have harmful messages for queer folks so prepare now by muting things on here and taking care of yourselves
