Whatever you do, pray for the ability to see your own sins, your own hypocrisy, and your own shortcomings. Never get so carried away pointing fingers that you forget you, too, fall short.
I think one of the wildest things, is that all of this is happening on the verge of the USA 250th anniversary. Like this should be a momentous time in our history, but instead we've never been more splintered. With corrupt elites laughing and mocking us directly.
The feed killed Instagram. Why would you show me people I don’t follow more than I do follow? The whole point in a follow button is I want to see that persons post. The explore page is to find people you might want to follow.
Most pointless app. It’s only useful for content creators and meme accounts now.
The National Park Service ran on a $3 billion budget and generated $56 billion in economic output in 2024. That’s over $17 back for every $1 invested.
With a record of 332 million visitors last year, Americans clearly care about their parks and expect them to be funded.
If you ended a relationship and realized they didn't go looking for another person, didn't go out partying, but instead started running, training, taking care of themselves, and distancing themselves from everyone so they could overcome themselves... I'm sorry to tell you that they truly did love you.
And I'm sorry to say you let a very good person slip away, one you won't find again... not even in another lifetime.
I used to think the social media videos I saw about the food in other countries were BS, until I went to Italy for a week.
One full week of eating pasta, pizza, steak and gelato…I came home down 7lbs. We are being poisoned. It really is that simple.
I feel like every time I go to the farmers market I see a dozen different couples that defy all the false dating narratives online… the most beautiful woman you’ve ever seen holding hands with a guy a foot shorter than her, a freakish male model gym specimen who targets muscles you don’t even know exist paired up with the quirky and slightly overweight shy girl… real lovers, at scale, are operating on levels of mutual curiosity and connection that no narrative could ever hope to encompass, for all real lovers know that romance is about expanding your reality together, not shrinking it to fit inside of a shallow and reductive cultural narrative. The only thing that matters, the only thing that has ever mattered, is how they make each other feel.
70 and 80 year old people are generally unemployable due to physical and mental decline but for some reason we allow them to run the entire fucking country.
You’re telling me that for me to be born it took 1 dad, 1 mom, 4 grandparents, 8 great‑grandparents, 16great‑great‑grandparents… and NONE of them left me even a single plot of land?
