April 6th is coming up soon :)

i have been asked to film a short video of my testimony of the book of mormon.

i want to know how it has impacted your life. the scripture within. what parts speak to you. why you consider it to be sacred scripture.

i don't know what i will do yet but i think i may speak on how it convinced me of continuing revelation, contains messages of liberation and is anti-wealth inequality, it gives solid spiritual advice in growing your faith in God (and has grown my faith and my relationship with my Creator), a focus on the Living Christ, and is spiritually empowering.

i'm going on too long because i started planning. but does anyone else want to join in and post theirs (not necessarily as a video but a text post. but use any medium you'd like.) on April 6th?

not sure of a good tag, but lmk if you have a better one than

#BoMTestimony

lmk and i'll update.

and yes, nuanced views are totally okay. mine certainly is. i'd love to see them.

if you want it up anonymously, you can anon DM me on anon. i will, of course, screen those.

i also ask that we keep it to the Book of Mormon and the Restoration as a whole rather than a specific church to be inclusive of those in other mormon sects.

and be careful to not insult other non mormon religions.

i haven't seen any religious insults on #tumblrstake , i think y'all are respectful and chill. i just like to cover my bases bc i have seen it elsewhere. but the vibes are much different on tumblr than on reddit. thank you all.

Unveiling the Truth: Racheal's Controversial Journey within SCOAN - A Closer Look

[madriguero]

One of David Wojnarowicz’s best-known pieces, Untitled (One Day This Kid...) (1990) is a photo-text collage with a portrait of the artist as an innocent child. Surrounding this anodyne, yearbook-style image is a field of text that gathers like a storm cloud, narrating a traumatic future in which this child will be persecuted—by the government, by the church, by society at large—for his sexuality. The repetition of the phrase “one day” gives the work a prophetic and propulsive cadence; it simmers with the visceral anger that defined so much of Wojnarowicz’s work as an artist and impassioned activist.

In 1991, the Brush Art Gallery at St. Lawrence University, in Canton, New York, staged the exhibition From Desire... A Queer Diary, curated by Nan Goldin. The show, which was part of a festival of gay and lesbian art, included works by David Armstrong, Greer Lankton, Zoe Leonard, Robert Mapplethorpe, Mark Morrisroe, and Wojnarowicz, among numerous others. Arriving amid the ’8os-era culture wars,

From Desire sparked controversy on campus. School fraternities reportedly attempted to prevent students from seeing the show, bullying those who attended and fulfilling the prediction of toxic intolerance that Wojnarowicz conjures in One Day This Kid.

Despite being autobiographical, Wojnarowicz’s collage is inclusive, inviting identification by others marked by homophobia or trauma, or those who feel invisible in a moment of stifling social conservatism. For the From Desire invitation, Wojnarowicz adapted One Day This Kid, changing the pronouns from he to she, and swapping in a young Nan Goldin in place of himself. “This card was an invitation to a queer art show that David helped me curate in 1991, another of our censored shows! It has pride of place in my home,” Goldin says. “I’m honored that David asked me to represent the girl. We were ugly, bucktoothed kids. But look what a beauty he grew into.”

The level of gaslighting is so high in this fandom that someone who is not familiar with the actual story will think "Targnation" is a bunch of weird fangirls obsessed with toxic blond men. Meanwhile what defines most "targ stans" normal asoiaf fans who are not pretentious holier-than-thou nerds is merely the belief that:

Dany tries her best at using the enormous power she has for good and it will be really cool to see her take her home back, unite the kingdoms against a common threat and instigate a positive, radical institutional and structural change. This is a very hopeful arc that fits into the romantic theme of asoiaf and contrasts nicely with the nihilistic/grim-dark perspective of the show (and the show's dudebro fanbase).

Rhaenyra was usurped and burned alive because she was a woman. If she was more conforming to Westerosi norms she would have still been usurped. If she was a man and much worse in political skill or character, she wouldn't have had that fate. Her behavior/flaws/decisions had little to no effect on her demise. It was misogyny pure and simple that caused the dance. This is a very nice foreshadowing for Dany being the last descendant of that house, the one who brought back the dragons, and the one destined to save the world in the war for the dawn.

Rhaegar Targaryen was not conceived by the author as a Machiavellian pedophile but as a positive role model for Daenerys contrasting with Aerys and Viserys and kind of prophet-character foreshadowing Dany and Jon's arrival and role in the war for the dawn which is what the book series is all about as per 1) the title (which he gave to the book) and 2) the very first page of the book.

Jon will probably give a fuck about his parentage and he will probably want to connect to his Targaryen father and family in some way. Which will probably happen through his relationship with Dany.

Like that's literally it. For some reason all of the above ended up being controversial in online spaces, as if we're part of a weird and sinister conspiracy theory and saying those things suddenly gets us in the "oh oh, targ stan alert" zone . Ahm, that's not targ stan bias that's kinda what the book series called asoiaf is all about, but you do you!

The most ridiculous thing fundies do if you're rude to them about their insane homophobic or antisemitic or racist statements is that they'll quote where the bible says christians will be hated and the heathens will be mean at them. Like they think the bible basically saying "these opinions may be controversial" is a slam dunk proof of its divine wisdom. Truly only a prophet assigned by god himself could have ever guessed that people were ever going to disagree about religion. Truly impossible to see that coming without supernatural foresight. We all know that no belief in history was ever divisive in any way and there were definitely not hundreds of religiously motivated wars or genocides until Christianity suddenly showed up thousands of years further into human civilization.

Prophecies of Nostradamus, Toho's most controversial disaster film, turns 50 today. Survivors of the Hiroshima atomic bombing protested its scenes of monstrous humans poisoned by radiation; while Toho trimmed those moments partway through its theatrical run, it hasn't been shown in Japan since 1980. A genuinely prophetic scene, in which an earthquake destroys the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant, all but guarantees Toho's self-imposed ban will remain in effect indefinitely.

The only way to watch the uncut film today is a shoddy-looking bootleg of a master that Toho prepared in 1986 for a VHS and LaserDisc release but decided not to use (much like Half Human). It's a fascinating look into the concerns of the day—overpopulation, global cooling, and even the psychological hazards of large cities among them. The back half is packed with haunting imagery as the consequences of rampant industrial growth fall upon Japan one after another. The people despair, riot, kill themselves and each other, all to that haunting, whistling Isao Tomita score. Unfortunately, the film is also overwritten, full of lectures about humanity's excesses from Tetsuro Tamba's Dr. Nishiyama. It didn't need to be 114 minutes long.

As a mid-70s Toho tokusatsu film, Prophecies of Nostradamus naturally has plenty of staff and cast overlap with the Godzilla series. Yoshimitsu Banno of Godzilla vs. Hedorah fame was the associate director and co-wrote the script; Teruyoshi Nakano directed the special effects; and Takashi Shimura, Akihiko Hirata, Hiroshi Koizumi, and Katsuhiko Sasaki all have small roles. It's well worth watching if you're intrigued by the idea of those folks working on a much bleaker sci-fi film.

I'm surprised by how open you are about your views on 'controversial' topics. As someone who works in a hospital and a certain group of university in the US, I had to sign a contract that prevents me from speaking out on these matters. How do you manage discussing such topics in your role?

I mean where I'm from, we have much bigger issues than just someone's opinions. Idk what controversial topics youre talking about, but i dont be just going about and giving my opinions to everyone and anyone. No, not everyone gets it and my time is far much more valuable than to talk sense to an ignorant person who will just make it look like im banging my head against the wall. Also because opinions are constantly changing because Im also in a growing age and im still learning new things everyday. if you were to see my views from 10 years back, youd be surprised. but then again, i was still a teen back then and i was easily influenced so back then i used to think being a feminist is being "anti man" or that being "feminine" is wrong and weak, which is not true obviously.

again idk what controversial topics youre talking about, but im gonna take a guess its about the gaza genocide being comitted by israel and look, there is only one fact, not opinion but FACT! and thats that Israel is murdering Palestinians actively, torturing them, doing ethnic cleanising and still trynna defend themselves for murdering babies in the worst way possible, and then some. there is no other side to this- there is no excuse for israel to do this, not now, not then and not ever. they are comitting crimes WAY WORSE THAN THEIR OWN HOLOCAUST, and its so enraging to see how nonchalant they are about it, how they have ZERO humanity, how they are actually worse than the NAZIS- imagine being worse than Nazis.

now back to your question- how do i manage giving my two cents on this? I'm Muslim, and even if I wasnt i think its the pretty obvious and sane thing to do, but Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said: "Whoever sees something evil should change it with his hands. If he cannot, then with his tongue; and if he cannot do that, then in his heart- and that is the weakest of faith"

So if anyone of you can go volunteer in Gaza, or give humanatarian aid or donate, then he should do so. If you are not in a position to do that, then you should speak up, go to protests, post on your socials and raise awareness and keep up the boycott. If you are not even able to do that for whatever reason, then at least in your heart you should know that this is evil, go pray for palestinians, and keep on reminding yourself so that you dont get brainwashed into any western propaganda ever again about how Muslims are just deserving of this horrendous hate crime on such a level.

secondly, my reason for speaking up about this is because lets just forget for a moment that palestinians are majorly muslims and this is islamophobia. lets just consider them humans, okay? u could hate muslims adults all u want, but kids dont really have that much of a grasp on religion right? so, do you think that if Israel has and continues to comit a massacre on this level while the entire world watches, while everyone calls them out on their shit, while they have repeatedly documented their own disgusting tortures and crimes against these palestinians, have been called out by UN and the INTERNATIONA CRIMINAL COURT numerous times and they still continue on with this genocide, then what makes you think that you or i are safe?

If we let this continue on, if we dont speak up, then this is just giving a free pass to not only Israel but also anyone to go absolutely batshit crazy on any other country. The very fact that youre not in gaza and sitting in your home safe and cozy is by pure luck. But luck runs out eventually. And karma comes. What goes around, comes around. You stay quiet today over this matter, you dont try to help palestinians, then no one's gonna come for you too.

Murphy Anderson cover featuring the Spectre dueling his opposite number, Shathan the Eternal. It is one of the few DC Comics to visually depict the Prophet Muhammad, which Islam generally views as being in bad taste.

The Spectre, a vengeful force created by Superman creator Jerry Siegel after he was mugged one night, was one of the last of the 1940s heroes to be revived in the 1960s, mainly because as a ghost of a murdered police officer who rose from the grave for revenge, he was at odds with the hyper-rational, atomic age pulp scifi informed DC Comics created by former scifi fandom members. Even here, Shathan the Eternal is less a traditional devil and more similar to a quantum physics and other dimensional take on demons, reminiscent of John Carpenter's approach in Prince of Darkness which mingled Satanism with particle physics.

Pulp fans will recognize two different references to pulp scifi, as per the course in 60s DC Comics, created by former fandom members:

The title "Beyond the Sinister Barrier" is a reference to the 1930s pulp novel "Sinister Barrier," by Eric Frank Russell. Because it was horror/fantasy as opposed to the typical hard science demanded of his audience, John W. Campbell created the pulp magazine Unknown specifically to publish it, possibly the best fantasy magazine of its decade.

Shathan the Eternal is a reference to the Shaver Mystery (one of the most bizarre incidents in scifi fandom history and a very recent and strange controversy at the time of this publication), which featured a villainous giant devil by that name.

controversial opinion maybe:

I KNOW. i know. hear me out

i saw a couple edits on tiktok of mcspirk to soldier poet king and like. i’m not putting anyone on blast but good lord some of those choices made my head hurt. it’s taken me a couple days to synthesize my reasoning for the superior choice (as pictured above), but here goes:

the problem with assigning characters to soldier poet king comes when you take it at face value, flattening the paradigm to angry-sad-tired or violent-artsy-authoritative. if we want to get down to the root of it, the song is based on the threefold office of christ as priest (soldier), prophet (poet), and king. like i’m not christian, but on a textual level it gives us context: the concept that as prophet jesus gave us counsel and words of wisdom, as priest he sacrificed himself to redeem us, and as king he provides for, defends, and forgives us

maybe the most famous priest/prophet/king (& thus soldier/poet/king) allegory in all of literature is frodo, gandalf, and aragorn. frodo bears the burden, though he wishes he did not need to; gandalf offers words of wisdom and mercy; aragorn is a born leader, on the front lines with sword in hand, ready to die with his men if he must

KING: capt. james t. kirk is the easiest one to place. it is a burden and a privilege, an honor and a horror to have the lives of so many depend upon you to make the right call under fire. he makes the call. he leads the landing parties, he puts himself at the head of the charge because by god he is not about to send his men into a battle he wouldn’t fight himself. he leads—with heart when he can, steel when he must—and people follow him. bones and spock are always right behind because they believe in what he believes in, and more than that they believe in him

POET: bones serves as kirk’s emotional sounding board, his moral peer review. he lends an ear, and the word of an old country doctor who’s seen much and understands more. man has ascended to the heavens, to hurtling through the void in a glorified tin can, and it would be no great hardship to forget that our place in the universe is not that of higher life—we are not as quasi-gods, moving pieces on the great three-dimensional chessboard, but flesh and blood, and we must attend to each other. bones tempers the pure logos and rationality offered by spock; he offers grounding in this age of technology that wrinkles the fabric of reality, offers the kind of emotional intellect that cannot be taught, and has always been sorely needed

SOLDIER: this is the one where you really get tripped up by surface-level analysis. yes, spock is reserved and collected. yes, vulcans are pacifists (as you may recall, so are hobbits, and yet frodo remains the soldier in allegory)

the thing about vulcans, though, is that despite the vegan pacifism, they are warriors. it’s tangled up in their history and their DNA. the koon-ut-kal-if-fee survived through centuries of analytical dogma for a reason; even now, they cannot wholly escape their inheritance of violence. their forefathers ran the sands of vulcan green with blood. they venerate logic and condemn emotionality so that they will not

your average high-achieving vulcan, probably on the path to kolinahr, commits their lifetime to the pursuit of knowledge at the vulcan science academy. it’s a measured, rational decision. a controlled environment, where there will never be any logical reason to resort to violence

spock joins starfleet

he joins starfleet, and pursues knowledge in the vast unknowable universe. there is reason for violence, frequently. and sure, the purpose of their mission is peaceful. it’s true that spock would rather resolution be reached without force. but a soldier needs not want to be a soldier. he only needs go to war

when it comes down to blows, he will match them. he makes the sacrifice play, jumps on the grenade, goes into the radiation-soaked engineering room alone. it’s only logical, after all

spock is there to pick apart the universe, unravel the threads of logic until it all makes sense. bones is there to stitch it up. kirk is the hand that holds it all steady, the gravitational field that binds the people of the enterprise to their purpose. soldier-poet-king, commander-doctor-captain. it’s a story old as dirt, and we’ll keep telling it, i think

edit: my bad vulcans have. green blood

On the one hand, Marika's vengeance never should have extended to the hornsent civilian population. I don't think this is controversial. Don't do genocide. Don't do group punishment.

On the other hand, wouldn't it be glorious if Marika, having returned to the land of the Tower and presented herself as a prophet from lost Nokron, having ingratiated herself with the hornsent leadership, having played the role of a hornless sage like Midra, met with the leaders of the hornsent on the eve of her betrayal? Wouldn't it be just the best thing ever if she stood before the heads of their inquisition, tore off the mimic veil, and allowed the Bonny Village cattlebrand and the tooth-whip scars to fade back into view? If they all had a moment of bewilderment, followed by dawning horror when they realized exactly what had returned for them?
