Put down the phones. Pick up the books.
Schools that are bringing back pen-and-paper learning and banning phones are seeing remarkable results.
Turns out kids learn better when they're reading, writing, and thinking—not scrolling.
@prmade313raised But she is to most people who've heard of it. She's the Steph Curry or Larry Bird of the WNBA.
Why are you so mad that people recognize her?
@HawleyMO@MLB It's deflection. No acknowledgement of the position they help put athletes in to compromise or receive negative publicity if they don't wish to endorse an event. They basically said, "Not our fault." 🤷
They played the Pontius Pilate role.
"Don't blame our uniform policy."
@RealShahriqKhan Yeah, brother, we all are sometimes Aaron. God has to teach us how to be Holy, no matter how righteous we think we are.
But I love the point about it not providing cover for Aaron. Our sin isn't hidden to God.

The World Cup has turned America into a discovery channel for the rest of the world.
And they are not handling it well.
In the best possible way.
Here is what they are discovering:
Free public restrooms. Europeans pay every time.
Free water at every restaurant. Just appears.
Free refills. Coffee. Sodas. Iced tea. Unlimited.
Free chips and salsa before you even order.
Free warm bread with dinner.
Ice in drinks like civilized people.
Air conditioning everywhere. Not a moral debate. A fact.
Parking lots attached to the actual place you are going.
Drive throughs where the food comes to the car while you sit in it.
Ranch dressing by the gallon.
Tex-Mex that cannot be explained only experienced.
Dental care that actually works.
Buccee’s. There are no words for Buccee’s.
Then they found the grocery stores.
Five of them within one mile.
Each one the size of an aircraft hangar.
Burgers. Steaks. Brisket. Ribs. Pulled pork. Lamb. Veal. Every cut of every animal ever domesticated by human civilization available in one refrigerated aisle at ten in the morning on a Tuesday.
The Germans stood in the meat section for forty five minutes.
In silence.
Processing.
They finally understand why we do not have trains.
We have roads wide enough for the cars we actually drive.
Parking lots the size of small European countries.
Airports in every city worth visiting.
Why would we need trains.
The Germans are taking ranch home by the bottle.
The Dutch found queso and briefly lost the ability to speak.
The Japanese are photographing HEB like it is the Louvre.
The Czechs are weeping in West, Texas.
Welcome to America!
The greatest country on earth.
@seattletimes This past few years really has showed everyone who loves our country and who only likes it when they can tell everyone else what to do, think, or say. You don't love the USA only when your candidate wins or you don't really love her. 🤷

@TheOfficerTatum It would be better if they objected morally, some may have wanted to object that way, too, but did you see the clown outfits that the team wanted them to wear?
They want to embarrass men when they're the clowns.
The racism and division tearing this nation apart — on BOTH sides — is straight-up demonic.
Especially for Christians.
We have NO business fueling racial division. Scripture is clear: We are ONE in Christ. There is no Black or White — we are brothers and sisters in the family of God.
True Christians love their Black brothers and sisters exactly as they love their White brothers and sisters… as they love themselves. That’s not opinion — that’s the Word of God.
Let’s rise above the noise and walk in love.
