I feel like there's got to be a catch somewhere (thinking back to 2008 and CA prop 8 and the LDS church's involvement in it) but if this is legit, wow. I have a family member who married into LDS and was active in the church for years. There are progressive Mormons, believe it or not, and they have been calling for better treatment of their LGBTQ loved ones. My family member left the church last year but still has ties, I’ll have to ask for the insider scoop. Eta my insider says it’s just optics, the leaders are still bigots and no changes are being made inside the church including on their university campuses. Boos all around.

My thinking is they are banking on goodwill for this when it comes to separation between church and state. Meaning they could show, we believe our religion shouldn't affect anyone not in it, but the government shouldn't be in church business. Like sifl said, they have no intentions of changing BYU and other school rules, or church rules. But it looks good from the outside.

I think I like NPR’s headline the best but these are also pretty good.

I’m scrolling through the conservative subreddit and it’s pretty hilarious how upset they are about Trump announcing. They have totally turned on him in the last month in favor of DS. Some of the top comments:
“Pass. I’m off the trump train”
“He is going to be the Hillary Clinton of republican party in 2024 isn't he? I bet he threatens to run third party if DeSantis wins primaries which would guarantee a democrat president.”
“I’m not voting for him a third time. He’s a loser.”
“He’s a loser. I don’t vote for losers.”
“It feels like he’s holding us all at gunpoint”
“Voting for him in the primary is a guaranteed loss in the general”
“Unfortunately he’s acting like a teenage girl lately. Dude needs to gracefully bow out” (🤮)

"I'm not voting for him."
Yeah right. We all know they will if he gets the nomination.

German news is now reporting that it seems it was "almost certainly" a Ukrainian anti-aircraft missile and not an attack on Poland.

What kind of sick fuck threatens a hospital, let alone a children's hospital?

I just saw pd gave the hospital an all clear. It was a bomb threat and they have been getting them in recent months. Police believe it’s due to them caring for transgender youth.

I met some friends for breakfast this morning and when I walked in there was an older guy leaving wearing a filthy MAGA hat that was autographed. I should have knocked it off his head, but also my mental health needs these bitchin breakfasts so I don't need to be banned from a restaurant 😣
