honest hearts should have let you cover joshua graham in tar and set him on fire and throw him in the grand canyon again and explicitly state that it's because he's a Mormon. i think that would have improved that dlc a tiny bit. still would suck, but a lil bit more self awareness of the relationship between mormons and indigenous Americans (by having everyone set fire to mormons and explain the history and reasoning behind such an action directly into the camera) would have gone a long way.
#my post#fnv#that dlc did not handle like... anything well really#oh they're not native they just greet you in navajo and do tonto talk because they're tourists who were lost....#and one of the mormons was meant to be asian (which would have made the Mormonism thing dissapear as a problem)

In sacrament meeting today, the bishop gave me a shout-out for being the only person singing tenor in our ward choir [despite the fact that I am, in fact, not a man]
#gender euphoria moment#it was literally like “and -- where's sparrow?”#and i raised my hand#and he said “good job singing baritone today. i mean you already play - what - 18 instruments? and now youre doing this too??”#i responded “tenor actually”#and the ward choir conductor [who i think hates my guts a lil bit] was like “girls can sing tenor its not that hard”#and he was like “oh. well good for you anyways. way to represent!”#tumblrstake#queerstake#lds#mormon#sparrow squawks#earth life#byu

ok so realistically i know theres important character reasons Kendra (and Seth and Warren by extension) never suspect Gavarog. It’s the old society trick to set up threats as team bonding exercises, etc, etc. plus this is a new and unfamiliar world thats rapidly overtaking her real world and replacing all her existing relationships, and right now Gavarog’s like the only member of her magical-worl peer group, so she doesnt want him to be a traitor, just like she didnt want Vanessa, her only female mentor to be a traitor, etc , etc.
but also i wholeheartedly 100% believe that every time Gavin did some truly bizarre, weird ass shit Kendra was just like. damnnnn…. average home school kid behavior.
#like fr tho#is it not just#damn why is this kid whose always telling me about his social anxiety somehow not even a little anxious when we’re actually doing shit#also why is he simultaneously the cockiest motherfucker alive#oh right he grew up on a preserve#damn did this fucking teenager just casually offer to carry a full grown man on his back while jumping at full speed over ledges???#damn i always knew homeschool kids are freaks#like maybe this is my mormon background showing#but everyone knows the stereotypical homeschool kid (tm) right??#fablehaven#why does this kid just casually seem to know what hes found more than every actual grown adult on this dragon preserve?#well shit it this is what he was doing instead of algebra#this poor kid#his father should be in jail#oh shit kendra you cant say that navarog ate his dad 😬#why didnt he laugh at my meme refrence?#damn his dad was probably just like grandpa#has he ever even seen a computer before?#…… tbh breaking kendras stream of thought here#but shit maybe im more sleep-deprived than i thought

I would like to request prayers for my mother; she is struggling with self-forgiveness. A decent summary of the conversation earlier would be "I have done bad things and I think that means I'm no longer saved"
"No. No it doesn't"
#In other news I would like to PERSONALLY throttle the Baptist and Methodist churches#“Oooooohhhhh the Catholics don't actually read the Bible-” OKAY BUT HAVE YOU#BECAUSE THIS DOCTRINE RIGHT HERE IS VERY MUCH NOT BIBLICAL#“Ooooohhhh the Mormons have added onto the Bible-” Buddy I have some REALLY BAD NEWS about like HALF of what you believe#“Ooooooohhhh but-” SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP READ YOUR BIBLES AND SHUT. UP.#“*insert blazing heresy here*” Can you. Can you point me to where IN THE BIBLE it says that?!#“Oh but the church I grew up in-” Yeah I bet. Point to it *in the Bible please*#Today on “Bri has beef with literally every denomination but especially the ones from her childhood”

i am absolutely a nicki girl by the way it's just that much like show!lestat my love for him is so pure he doesn't even have to be hot. he can be an ugly crier with a floppy lil wig it only inspires tenderness.
#i'm kind of worried the show will feel the need to minimize him so louis-lestat can shine. it does not! he's the blueprint for all the sad#bitches who came after but it's very clear louis is the one who drove lestat fully out of his mind forever#don't actually love the show's take on romance and monogamy. i feel like it's in conversation with#twilight vampire mormonism and also modern fuck boy culture#the original has nothing to do with either of those things and i think has a very specific take on romantic love and fidelity#that exists on the border of what is love to the dead. like when you strip away the social constructs of the living and reinvent love for#yourself outside of those boundaries what does it look like#and my specialist blorbo is the little black dress of my world and i ship him with everyone#like i'm a lestat was cheating on louis with antoine truther but the special sauce was that he wasn't actually going outside the boundaries#of his relationship with louis he was playing games and daring him to admit he cared enough to be mad about it#like it's the oblique bitchiness of louis being like oh i wish he'd just hurry it up and eat him#that would be kinder#the way antoine does very much offer something to lestat that louis doesn't#and not just like. a dumping ground for his frustrations at home#music! affection! they were FRIENDS#was lestat thinking about eating him the whole time probably but that's not the point#press says iwtv#interview with the vampire#nicolas de lenfent

Knowing Andrew Rannells for being Harley of Pokemon fame is probably like knowing Taylor Swift for voicing that chick from The Lorax or knowing Harry Styles as that guy from wattpad. And I do not mean to diminish Andrew Rannells' amazing contributions to the world of theater, he has done far bigger and probably better things, but that's just Harley's voice actor to me tbh
#Andrew Rannells was on the 2023 New Years Day Rose parade for a segment and I called in my little sibling to the room like 'HEY LOOK'#and my mom was like 'why do you two care about the guy from The Book of Mormon. have you even seen it'#like. well no. however. your teenager and twentysomething care too much about pokemon lmao#anyways I do the same thing with Timothy Omundson. I see him in stuff and it's like oh shit that's Lassiter from Psych.#Every single celebrity is forever stuck as the first thing I saw them in.#that is Jim from The Office running from sound-hunting aliens in A Quiet Place (or whatever that movie was about).#tay's tag#shitpost hours

if i had a dollar for every time a religious missionary knocked on my door to "spread the good news" while i was actively in an acute mental health crisis i'd have 2 dollars, which isnt a lot but also. how many times does this have to happen before they stop coming.
#technically ive actually had three but the ones where they come to my home feel more violating and embarrassing#heads up im going to talk about grim things but its so bananas that its hard not to talk about#2 years ago i had one come while i was Participating In An Activity One Does When You're Grappling With SI#and it was a very bad time and an overall terrible encounter#especially bc it was obvious at the time i was deeply unwell but of course they didnt want to actually address it#and today i had two come while i was having an active manic episode and looked DEEPLY insane and was in the middle of some bullshit#and both times as soon as i opened the door i can tell theyre like 'oh fuck' and realize that theres something serious going on#but at the same time. play stupid games win stupid prizes.#if someone is having a MH crisis they try to do it in a safe and private environment like their gotdamn house for a reason w/o strangers#and if you just show up unannounced to talk about Mormonism to a random persons house theres a good chance youre going to be-#interrupting something and that something isnt always good#i know door-to-door solicitors are '''normal''' but the whole thing really whacks me out and makes me feel kind of angry

me when a family vlogger with a million kids is a little too put together and is obviously conservative but never mentions their religion:
me when someone whose name is obviously Samoan says they were born in Utah:
me when some white guy makes "relatable" work content but works for a family business that exclusively employs people related to the owner and everyone wears polos tucked into khaki:
me when a Christian influencer constantly talks about being spiritual but conveniently leaves out Jesus Christ a lot:
#my mormon-dar is better than my gay-dar at this point#brought to you by i was watching golf with my husband and saw tony finau's name and said oh he's samoan and my hubs was like#no he's from salt lake#mormon alert ⚠️#and i was right#my shit

i think one of the biggest most egregiously contradicting shit religion wise ive seen is big ass (christrian esque) churches actively putting up wards against homeless people. bro i thought your whole thing was helping the needy what the hell is this
#i am well aware of how much this all fragments into various different other sub categories protestant lutheran whatever yadda yadda ya#but still. i was of the opinion that like. all of them were geared towards helping the needy/homeless#granted these ppl loove contradicting themselves but still#it just tells me oh you really dont give a fuck huh. this is about money or status#it was smthn i could respect abt christian faiths. at least there was some attempt to help others for the sake of it#not even for missionary work but just for Doing it#one of the few things i actually enjoyed doing when forced to go to my fathers church w him was help build houses#it was likely missionary work but still. i think the houses were given regardless of faith#i enjoyed doing that it felt like i was actually helping#so it just makes me even more bitter and pissed off when i see churches with these massive gates and#bars against entry and a homeless person sleeping outside of it#granted the one i saw doing this recentlh was mormon so. lmfao#what did i expect. but the irony still pissed me off#SORRY FOR THE BIG RANT IM JUST THINKING ABT IT...#if your faith actively bars against homeless people it is not one i have any interest going near is all ill say#skeletal chatter#religion cw

fun fact, the breaking point that led me to finally cave and make this sideblog was watching youtube shorts and the algorithm decied to throw a TON of hazbin hotel / helluva boss stuff at me and one came up with Lucifer Charlie's dad just as like. one of those edits and THEN i scroll and THE NEXT ONE IS SOMEONE DRAWING THE FALL FROM HEAVEN and i decided right then and there that on top of my demon fixation coping mechanism i now am going to project heavily onto LUCIFER HIMSELF.
#aster.txt#exmo moment#religious trauma#ell oh ell#exmo#exmormon#ex mormon#ex cult#apostate#i really like hazbin hotel /helluva boss's worldbuilding though#its like the only media that depicts anything even remotely christian that i can actually handle without it fucking me up#i havent watched good omens yet but im sure that one will make me project all sorts of issues#ive been watching the good place and even that one sets me off sometimes#im too messed up for anything even vaguely remniscent of how i was raised#but anyway yeah hazbin hotel youtube edits made me realize i relate to lucifer himself#and ive been going through faith crisis shit for EVER but even just like a year or two ago if you told me that#id have been so wildly uncomfortable for various reasons#i think thats funny#my religious trauma is so funny sometimes#mmmmmm demons

bo katan living the far too relatable experience of pretending to be religious for family or extended relations to keep the waters calm. when everyone else around says amen This Is The Way with conviction and she can quietly get away with not saying it. it’s like when you have to go to church for some holiday dinner - you just smile, nod your head, and take extra care to say gosh instead of god
#or like when the missionaries are over and you have to say ‘oh I just can’t pick one what about you?’ when they ask your favorite scripture#or like when you have to go to mormon girls camp and pretend to be buying and believing the shit they wake you up for at 6 am#the most realistic shit that’s ever happened in this show#the awkwardly standing there like yes He has touched me and I have found the truth and was baptized to rejoin#i have come back to the church yes of course I’ll see you next Sunday#of course I haven’t removed my helmet since This Is The Way#still don’t like her but the accuracy here is so funny to me#the mandalorian#the mandalorian spoilers#sw#Star Wars#bo katan kryze#z speaks

Jesus is such a chill and fun character and his story had some really cool and intense scenes and art and themes (tho it's a bit gory, so I get it's not for everyone) but he got really bad luck with the fandom :[
Like, I get being hiperfixated on something, but that doesn't mean you get to be disrespectful of other fandoms right? And they're so weird about shipping and smut and etc....
Jesus I'm sorry you should be enjoying a thousand fanarts of old man yaoi and some incredible angst fics about your Daddy issues but your fandom is so weird about you and completely ignore cannon for their weird fanon headcannons :[
#tw religion#religious jokes#free my man he deserves to have a tattoo/coffe/flower shop au#the mad ramblings#and the subfandoms formed around one guy's aus....#like man.... I get it okay? sometimes an Au is really really fucking good#but you cant pretend its cannon now???? also its unhealthy to demand of a fan creator like that#you should never put other fans as superior. we're all people and we gotta treat each other as people#or else we get some unhealthy dinamics and inflated egos and thats just not fun :/#also sometimes the canon series have really bad or confusing writing. which is normal!!! it has like a ton of different writers!!!!!!#but people interpret it in one (normally farfetched) way and will attack you if you dont agree with them!!#ughhhh.... Jesus really would be my comfort character if his fandom didnt suck :[ I gotta turn him into an oc or something#[[woah real Rat here! Tell me if this needs more TWs]]#unreality#[[oh btw lemme clear something up 'other fandoms' <-im talking about furries 'random guy au' <-im talking about mormons]]
