seeing everything about the secret lives of mormon wives is so weird to me because

1. I didn’t grow up in Utah so some of the more cultural vs. doctrinal societal norms weren’t really prevalent

2. I have very chill parents who love the religion but also know that the church institution itself is fallible and religion/practice are personal above all else

so it feels almost alien??? Like I grew up in the church, and even though I’m pagan now I still enjoy going to church with family when I’m in town and I feel up to it. I have ties there. I love a lot of the people in the ward I grew up in.

it feels like this show is talking about something I’m barely even familiar with. Idk. It’s also frustrating because I really want someone from outside of the church to take us seriously enough to do an actual deep dive into the cosmology/culture/structure and general history of the church without affirming or outright condemning all of it. There’s so much nuance in people’s relationships with church and it makes me kinda sad that we never get that.

idk I maybe need to start incorporating some Mormon characters with actual nuance into writing projects ‘cause… I’m sad sometimes lol

(also if I have to explain one more time to someone that an institution can be bad/have serious flaws without being a cult I’m going to lose it. SOME BRANCHES OF THE CHURCH FIT THE BITE MODEL. SOME DO NOT. STOP USING CULT AS A BUZZWORD. I grew up with people saying Mormonism was a cult. I also know someone who was raised in an actual cult, and trust me, the cultish-ness of lds religious practice is based on a wide variety of factors and where you live. I personally think it’s pretty rude to just tell someone you barely know that they’re in a cult with no research or sensitivity around it.)

kiss with a fist is better than none (toxic yuri etc etc etc)

[additional Ed & Stede's reaction under the cut]

during the dinner with Anne & Mary:

and because they would be (they already are lol) one of those couples who talk over their double date with their less functional coupled friends in details, here's a glimpse of some future meet ups with the wives bc i couldn't help myself:

couple goals - soft mlm and unhinged wlw

its so funny that they used clips of stained glass windows in the secret lives of mormon wives... bcs you know they weren't allowed to get footage inside any mormon buildings and also mormon church buildings are ugly as hell and no nevermo would look at a floral couch and get 'religion' from that

We went on the self-guided secret door tour in the Mansion on O Street (yeah, we laughed about the name too) on Sunday. It’s five row houses that interconnected by more than 90 secret doors and 32 concealed passageways. Rooms are filled with memorabilia and collectibles, so it’s fun to wander through and look at stuff too.

We found 18 full sized hidden doors and one compartment in a two hours of wandering through the houses. It was fun. We’ll probably go back again sometime and have another go at it.

Update: The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives is BONKERS and as a radical atheist who hates organized religion, I'm hooked

Higher ground by the crane wives is so life series coded... guys can you hear me

"I didn't wanna hurt anyone"

"The corvids are calling"

"Am I in danger, or am I the threat?"

I can see this being used so much for so many different characters. If I had the dedication to make an animatic I totally would make one to this song. It's so fitting and just AGHDGGS
