@KSLcom It met the standard set up by an ill-conceived law that was promoted by a fringe special interest group with a vendetta towards public education. I am a little dizzy from the schadenfreude.

@_robotshane 7 kids for 9 hours should merit some serious cash. I get it if the babysitter offers to work for free as a way to show they honor the decision to go to the temple, but for the parents to make that judgment call on behalf of the babysitter is just bizarre.

Standing up to racism at a sporting event would take courage, no doubt. It's probably one of those things that you need to decide to do before you enter the doors, not in the heat of the moment. Decide now. Write out your script. Be ready because you'll still probably be scared.

My son came out of his room right after Yassmin's TD (I screamed loudly) and humbly asked if he could watch the rest of the game. I said yes, and told him to grab his older sister too. We danced around the room after each Utah TD, big play, and the win. Great memories. 🥲😁

@StallionCornell It's disappointing. It doesn't dispute the merit of the report or the details of the case. It just reinforces that the Church knew and chose not to act. Also, criticizing the AP feels like the wrong approach. The "fake news" angle will fire up some, but it feels cheap.
