I'm not watching conference, I'm probably never going to watch conference again.

The church is facing yet another cultural shift in the world and we, historically, do not face with cultural shifts easily. There will be a lot of nonsense and there will be a fair amount of blasphemy. Don't loose heart, keep firm in your belief that the church should not be a vehicle for abuse and bigotry.
Keep firm in your attachment to personal revelation. Keep firm in your knowledge of right and wrong and do not let an organization --even one that has shaped that knowledge for you-- tell you that something isn't wrong when it is clearly hurting people.
"By their fruits ye shall know them" is our answer to this, it always has been.
Remember that the critical thinking hats stay ON and that while Mormonism isn't a cult, there are plenty of people who wish it was.
