I have never heard an actual Mormon use the word “Mormon” or even just implicitly accept the label themselves It’s like guys in the mafia saying the mafia doesn’t exist

From an org chart? Won’t everybody just deny they’re the ones responsible and there’s enough plausible people to make it unclear

So this show “secret lives of Mormon wives” - the whole marketability is that it’s Mormons not being super Mormon Only problem - nobody is a Mormon. So it’s just regular people doing typical reality show stuff

Our tendency to look back on different people in history and take pride in what they were doing based on how it matches up to our own values now is itself a reflection that we are not value neutral at all and it’s perfectly reasonable that in 500 years people will look at this moment and think we were backward or just a weird tangent of history

People in the future (if they think about you or your general opinions at all) will understand you as a product of your time reacting to influences around you.

Right wing people significantly underestimate how intoxicating the drug of “being on the right side of history” is to libs Childishly myopic to think people even 200 years from now will just be using the exact same lens you are using now to judge yourself

Your life is not a double blind randomized trial. If you’re never comfortable making decisions with anything less than exact scientific accuracy you will never do anything. I don’t just mean never “achieve” anything I mean you will not be able to really live

Or possibly that artists come from those genres now and then just adapt to pop to appeal to a wider audience with a lighter lingering resemblance to their original genre

I feel like pop music is eating other genres of music. Rap and country both sound very different now from the 90’s.

I will vote for literally anybody for president if they promise to pass a bill banning tipping features on PoS software.
