Wednesday… This here Weird Alma kid gonna lay down some tunes on Mormonism Live with Bill Reel and RFM. 😎🎸 @FreeMormon @MormonDisc

I never knew what a millstone was. They would roll it on the grain to make bread. And some people wear them around their necks. That’s what mommy told me Jesus once said. weirdalma.bandcamp.com/track…

I’ve been working hard on a script for what might be described as “the Life of Brian of 19th century American religion.” Hoping to produce a film or series in the coming year. We need some Mormonism-themed comedies to balance all the murder stuff, right??

This is that other thing I do, i.e., debating reality and messing with minds of all ages. 😎 Don’t miss the stinger! geekdad.com/2022/01/eric-her…

I want to salute the Latter-day Saints who avoided watching rated R movies for decades, because a prophet cautioned against that, once, when speaking to the youth of the church. That was definitely the way to 🎶 follow the prophet; not now, during, ya know, a plague.

Chadwick Boseman was terrific in Ma Rainey, and probably should have won to celebrate his legacy and mourn his loss. But Anthony Hopkins delivered the best acting performance of 2020, and deserved the award as described. Boseman was robbed of his life, not an Oscar.

My favorite line in the early part of Murder Among the Mormons, from Shannon Flynn, referring to Mark Hofmann: “He didn’t look the part. He looked like a nerd, and he was a nerd.” So what you’re saying is... he totally looked the part.

Mick Mulvaney, Betsy Devos, etc.: “I can’t stay here!” I can’t stay here one more day... 1,448 days into a 1,461 day term. 🙄

Nobody could have seen this coming. Except for everyone who absolutely saw this coming. 😣

I really like what Mitch McConnell said today. If only he said that right after the election. And said everything else he’s ever said differently. 😕

We probably need a mashup of #BeanDad’s thing and Trump telling the GA Sec of State how to find 11,000 votes.

As the election fraud claims become more “undetectable,” and understandable only if you’re clued in to some secret font of knowledge, Carl Sagan’s “Dragon in My Garage” becomes as applicable to Trumpets as it was to religious believers. Which is largely a crossover, anyway. 😕

“I see you,” “I hear you,” and “I feel you” are all positive ways to let others know that you care about what they’re saying and find it important and vital. “I smell you,” not so much.

The metal monolith in Utah... There’s a panel on the back, and inside are the gold plates, sword of Laban, and the bones of millions of Nephites and Lamanites. (It’s bigger than it looks from the outside.)

Pres. Nelson has announced a BIG IMPORTANT message to be revealed on Dec. 29. A leaked advance copy indicates that the message will be for everyone to be happy in the coming year, and to show their happiness with the #happynewyear hashtag. Wow! 🤯

In most times, a call for gratitude is nice. But what’s dumb is making a BIG ANNOUNCEMENT about there being a BIG IMPORTANT MESSAGE from the prophet of the world, er, I mean, global faith leader... and then it’s a message about giving thanks... right before Thanksgiving. 😒😆

Grateful to have reclaimed my time, money, devotion, choices, diet, and reason these past four years since leaving the Mormon church. Thankful to know that it’s a big ol’ pile of baloney. #givethanks

I must acknowledge that my life has benefited greatly from the time I spent at Julliard... Julliard Total Landscaping. 😑
