When somebody says, 'I cannot emphasize this enough,' my first thought is: 'Don't feel bad. With a little practice, you too can be a great emphasizer.'

Whenever I see a trade for "a player to be named," I always assume it's just some guy whose parents are very dedicated procrastinators.

A tariff is a tax. China or Canada doesn’t pay it. Farmers, American manufacturers, and families at the checkout counter pay it. I oppose blanket tariffs and support free, fair trade that benefits every American.

Listened to this talk from President Oaks this morning and, welp... I guess I will remove this phrase from my Gospel vocabulary

Mike Malone: "I think it's crazy that Nikola [Jokic] got a technical foul… He's going to get the ball and some fan is holding onto the ball like he wants to be apart of the game." Reporter: "The fan was the owner of the Suns." MM: "I don't give a sh*t."

I've been a Latter-day Saint all my life and today I learned we have a doctrine specifically focused on breathing 🤯
Just so everybody is clear the teaching of theosis is NOT the same teaching of the LDS view of human exhalation.

🚨 PRESIDENT OAKS JUST REVEALED SOMETHING IN HIS OFFICE… MORE RECORDS?! Something remarkable has appeared on President Dallin H. Oaks' social media account, and I think it could have an extraordinary connection to his recent general conference address! 👀📖 President Oaks just shared SEVEN photographs from inside his office. At first, we see a panoramic view of the room. But something has changed! A beautiful NEW painting of the resurrected Jesus Christ appearing to the Nephites now hangs prominently behind his desk. Then something particularly interesting happens. As we progress through the photographs, the camera moves closer and closer to President Oaks's desk. Until, in the final photograph, we discover an OPEN BOOK OF MORMON with a very specific passage HIGHLIGHTED! 📖 And when you recognize what that scripture teaches, the connection to President Oaks's October General Conference address becomes particularly fascinating! Remember what he said just three weeks ago? President Oaks taught that additional sacred teachings will eventually come forth, including accounts of the resurrected Savior's visit to the LOST TRIBES OF ISRAEL and His revelations to ALL THE SEED OF ABRAHAM! Think about the implications of that statement! 🌎 He also reminded us of the prophecy that righteousness would come from heaven and truth from the earth, gathering the Lord's elect from the four quarters of the world. Now he's drawing our attention back to the Book of Mormon! But that's not all. 🔎 There's another fascinating detail among the objects displayed in President Oaks's office. One appears to depict an important Chinese landmark, raising some intriguing questions about the worldwide gathering of Israel. And President Oaks's accompanying message concludes with a direct invitation for us to SHARE the Book of Mormon's extraordinary witness of Jesus Christ! Could he be helping prepare us to receive a greater understanding of the Lord's dealings with His children throughout the world? Could additional sacred records eventually play an important role in the gathering of Israel? And why did President Oaks choose to highlight THAT particular scripture? I've put together a fascinating new Rise Zion episode examining all seven photographs, the scriptural connections, and what President Oaks has actually taught. 🙏 I believe the Restoration is continuing to unfold, and there is so much for us to look forward to! 💬 WHAT DO YOU THINK? Do you believe President Oaks is deliberately drawing our attention to something important about the future of the Restoration? Or do you interpret these photographs differently? I'd genuinely love to hear what you noticed! 🎥 WATCH THE NEW RISE ZION EPISODE AND JOIN THE DISCUSSION! #PresidentOaks #BookOfMormon #LostTenTribes

congrats to Josh Shapiro on showing he knows how to get engagement on this app
Who knew kicking off a bus tour would make for a nice date with my ninth-grade girlfriend.

okay but Malcolm (not the guy in the photo) is the BBQ GOAT. I've never used a recipe of his that didn't turn out good. howtobbqright-dot-com!
what always gets me about american cooking is that they use these spices like "malcom's italian stallion" or "killer hog's A.P" in europe when we say spices we mean like, cumin or oregano

Every now and then I'm reminded that "winning" on this app often looks basically the same as winning on the playground in 2nd grade
this is what dessert at the cheesecake factory looks like

I don't even particularly care for Vivek. I just hate how stupid and sophomoric people on this app are so much of the time. Grow up.

this is really striking. americans aren't losing faith in just *leaders* they're losing faith in *the people itself* that is the real threat to the republican form of government.

In 2024, Bear 32, also known as Chunk, was observed eating 45 sockeye salmon in 10.5 hours from Brooks River in Katmai National Park & Preserve. At an estimated average of 3,000 calories per fish, Chunk consumed around 135,000 calories in that one sitting.

Yes.
I’ve asked this before but is there any historical event that is like the Opposite of 9/11. Like something so good that happened that it changed the world forever

Yes… major implications for… “search and rescue…”
Purdue University's IDEAS Lab built an autonomous drone that tracks runners through dense forests completely without GPS or cloud networks. By running 3D LiDAR mapping and obstacle-avoidance AI entirely on-chip, it can weave under tree canopies and predict target movement through blind spots in real time. Massive implications for next-gen search & rescue and edge AI.

I've wondered this, too, but then I remember this line from Neal A. Maxwell: "Work is always a spiritual necessity, even if, for some, work is not an economic necessity."
God put adam in the garden “to tend it”, but there’s no record of tending in the story. it’s paradise: what was he doing? unlikely he’d be watering. has to be weeding at minimum, but that isn’t very paradisiacal. i don’t even like keeping up with my lawn. maybe he wanted to leave

Perhaps our idea of "paradise" ought to include some form of work. If that sounds unpleasant (and it often does to me, I confess), maybe we need to shift our perspective so that we can better see the sanctifying effect that work has on us.
