This may not be worth a full post but I just noticed that in a comment on WJT’s blog a couple days ago, I called the two lazy lions “rude and disruptive”. Today I was reading through the comments again and the word “rude” stood out to me in light of my prior post about L&L. It dawned on me that they were also called rude in the BoM and upon searching I was right. Nephi and Lehi both discuss L&L’s “rudeness”:

I am sticking with my theory that Laman and Lemuel are twins. I think there is a good chance they either map to Amrod and Amras, the twin sons of Feanor, or to Ingwe, whom I also suspect is not one, but two. If I had to pick one of those today, I’d go with Amrod and Amras. Regardless, I think we see L&L here in this Animalia page:
Maybe I am thinking too small with Mars. I haven’t watched the speech yet (99 minutes!), but on Tuesday, Trump spoke to Congress. Our Gray Iluvatar, I mean, Elon Musk, posted a snippet today where Trump references planting the US flag on Mars.
My high school son is learning about WW2, or at least, the Allied version of WW2 history (wink wink). His teacher asked everyone to research people in their family history who served in WW2 and what their experience was. On my side, no luck. Both of my grandfathers were deferred for health (high blood pressure and flat feet). On my wife’s side, however, one man did fight.
In 1 Nephi 13-14 the BoM speaks of “a man among the gentiles” who will go across “the many waters” to find the remnant of Lehi. After he does this, “many multitudes of the gentiles” will follow suit. These gentiles are in possession of a special book called The Book of the Lamb of God.
Yesterday I was doom scrolling X late at night hoping to find some nugget about why the Epstein files have yet to be released that would allow me to believe a story besides the most likely (i.e. the files will either never be released or will only be released once they have been sanitized to protect the powers that be). I never did find what I was looking for. However, I did find this gem:
I almost boycotted the Super Bowl this year because the thought of watching Taylor Swift (who I am convinced is a Lizard person if they exist) celebrate as her fake romance to Mr Pfizer reaches yet greater heights, was just too much to bear.
Yes I am still noodling on this (sue me!). And yes I know science disproves this notion six ways from Sunday. But I don’t trust the great theories of our era. I’m a fool, you say? Well if you’re just now realizing that then maybe YOU’RE the fool!
While reading the BoM today w the fam, my son suggested that the deadly serpents ancient Israel had to deal with were some type of dragon creature. I then noticed that Nephi describes them as having the ability to fly:
In the Silmarillion we read of the darkening of Valinor, when Melkor and Ungoliant teamed up to destroy the Two Trees. However, the result was more than just the turning off of Heavenly Light, but replacing it with a primeval Unlight or void.
