Okay, so this is going to be amusing to maybe like five people on the planet but...
I've been studying teeline, a shorthand system most typically employed by UK journalists (though apparently becoming less common). In this writing system there are various phrases that have commonly used abbreviations. In today's lesson, the instructor mentioned that the phrase "grievous bodily harm" can be written as GBH.
As an #ExMormon, this abbreviation amuses me.

Reading through the "Light and Truth Letter" a totally-not-written-by-the-church response to the infamous CES Letter that's been plaguing Mormonism for years now.
It's amazing* how they seem to have managed to not seriously engage with a single one of the issues I have with the church.

in reply to Jonathan Lamothe • •Wow, I finally got to my "shelf breaker" item: the way the church handles reports of sexual abuse. They actually have the audacity to list "the helpline"* as something that makes people safer.
This is some real Ministry of Truth shit.

* You know, the helpline that has instructed these untrained bishops to not report to the authorities and then move to sweep them under the rug.
