I don’t think the rest of the world grasps how little we think about them

[Hayden 🇦🇺 🇺🇦 @Haydenfreedom]

I don’t think Americans grasp how much the rest of the world DOES NOT want to be like them.

Congrats to the Knicks

2019 LSU smokes both of these teams

@caesar_beaver What if I’m in Raleigh and don’t have a stained glass profile picture?

[Chris Blankenship ⚓️ @Chriskb116]

Yeah so soccer is a game for little kids to run around for a little bit and get their energy out. Also, Americans are probably the one country on earth who couldn’t care less what other countries think of us

Oh no, more people care about the NHL than ever before, the horror!

[alex brasky @alexbrasky]

The NHL completely ruined the league with expansion teams

Hurricanes and Golden Knights: two teams whose history began in 1997 and 2017 have made 6 Stanley Cup Finals with 2 wins between them and another coming this year

The league has failed its traditional franchises

If you would change this much, you don’t like Star Wars

-Narrative should pick up with Anakin at 18 or 19, not 8 or 9.
-He’s really Owen’s brother
-he’s not a ‘slave’ they’re just a simple moisture farm family
-No ‘immaculate conception’ nonsense
-No ‘chosen one’ ‘prophecy’
-he’s just a hotshot boonie pilot kid who dreams of making it, joins up as a Republic pilot, then when he gets to Coruscant or whatever more central planet starts to learn the Force/Jedi stuff, rises quickly
-The Jedi are shown as functional, noble, and martial. They don’t just do ambassador stuff about trade disputes. They’re knights. They don’t all wear desert robes!
-Darth Vader is a different guy, same age. A Jedi. Obi-Wan’s trainee. ‘Darth’ isn’t a title that’s his name. (I know, I’m fixing Eps 5/6 now)
-The whole reason Anakin (“Kin” for short, they call him, not “Ani”) leaves Tattooine is he’s an idealist (like we were told!), who wants to fight the
-clone threat! The clones/cloners are the bad guys of course (not cartoon proto-stormtroopers fighting alongside Jedi). The ‘clone wars’ were something like a Butlerian Jihad against cloning tech, which the Big Baddie was leveraging to take over planets.

Ok sorry now I’m changing stuff about Episode II. Well I could keep going, I got a lotta changes

The NHL has more average viewership than the NBA and the NHL’s viewership has increased since instituting a salary cap.

[fan of the Yankees @realboshek]

NHL with their salary cap is about to have a Carolina-Las Vegas Stanley Cup

Then they wonder why the NHL is an extreme distant 4th best sport.... it's because "fairness" leads to finals no one watches

A European heatwave is a cool summer day in the South.

[lynx｡𖦹°‧ @6gauntlets]

why are the Americans so mad at Europeans complaining about a heatwave

North Carolina isn't just the most populous state without Major League Baseball…

We’re also the 3rd fastest-growing state, planted in the largest MLB deadzone on the East Coast.

Ed Orgeron is returning to LSU and will serve as the special assistant to recruiting and defense for the Tigers

Rodgers.

[TB EGO @TomBradyEgo]

Who is the worst QB in this picture?

[Chris Blankenship ⚓️ @Chriskb116]

This feels a little disproportionate

Why aren’t your college sports conferences based on geography ?

[Chris Blankenship ⚓️ @Chriskb116]

These need to join the continuum. We don’t need yet another Anglican province in America.

[Bishop Robert Todd Giffin @the_ostj]

The time has come for the Dioceses of Ft. Worth, Quincy, San Joaquin, Missionary Diocese of All Saints (FIF), the REC, and others of like mind to withdraw from the Anglican Church in North America (ACNA) and form a new, orthodox Anglican body in North America, the jurisdiction that should have been formed in the beginning of the Fellowship in those early days, a jurisdiction that does not purport to ordain women.

A North American jurisdiction that is firm in formation and theological education. A jurisdiction that advances the classical Prayer Book tradition, and discards the folly of the past.

It is also time for those in the various GAFCON provinces to draw a similar line on women’s ordination. The time has come to put an end to this madness and form a broad basis for renewal in global Anglicanism.

If you take the lead, others will follow.

[Chris Blankenship ⚓️ @Chriskb116]

@WVPitt Raleigh is absolutely the better option

[Chris Blankenship ⚓️ @Chriskb116]

This needs to happen

[Rep. Oscar De Los Santos @RepODLS]

WTF?? House Republicans just introduced a measure to REPEAL the 17th Amendment of the US Constitution. They want to ban the people from voting for our US Senators. Instead, they want the Legislature to appoint our Senators.

WTF are they thinking?

[Chris Blankenship ⚓️ @Chriskb116]

They preach the gospel of their father, the Devil

[Dem Saints @LDS_Dems]

In the LDS Church, we do not see Eve eating the forbidden fruit as a mistake or even a sin.

To the contrary, we celebrate her courage and wisdom to partake of the fruit, transgress the bounds of Eden and become all that her Heavenly Father wanted her to be.
