ITS CALLED GRIT AND IT IS THE FOUNDATION OF WHAT WE DO. WE’LL PLAY YOU ON GRASS. WE’LL PLAY YOU ON TURF. WE’LL GO TO A FUCKING LANDFILL. DOESN’T MATTER.
“We’re diagnosing boys with ADHD for acting like boys.”
Erica Komisar said this on Steven Bartlett’s Diary of a CEO. Little boys have a huge testosterone surge between ages 3–6. They need to run, jump, wrestle, and move constantly. Instead, we put them in classrooms that reward sitting still, regulating emotions, and being quiet — behaviors that come more naturally to girls. When they can’t, we label them as disordered.
Boys’ schools get this — they do short lessons then let the kids run around multiple times a day. Regular schools don’t.
It feels like we’ve built an education system that works better for one type of kid and then act surprised when the other type struggles or gets medicated.
These early labels follow boys for years and can damage their confidence and self-image long-term. We’re not letting boys be boys.
Do you think our school system is unfairly set up against how boys naturally learn and behave?
His wife lets him call all shots and do what he wants without fear she would ever be disloyal, leave or turn fake in any way. Its the price she pays to be lifted from a regular life in Ohio for her and her off spring
LeBron James explains what it really takes to stay with someone for 20+ years
"We've been together since high school, so shit ain't always gonna be a bed of roses in any relationship, let alone with someone that you've been living with for over 20 years"
"I think communication is number one. Being honest is number two. Number three is that you have to be okay with being uncomfortable in relationships sometimes. You can't always have it your way. You can't always think, 'My way or the highway.' That's never gonna work that way"
"They say, 'Happy wife, happy life.' Happy life, is that shit real, bro? But also, happy husband, happy loving"
Gilbert Arenas says he was miserable after retiring from the NBA despite being worth $100,000,000
“Miserable. Because any athlete from the ages of six, seven years old all we knew was one thing. Hoop. Wake up, ball, sleep. Wake up, ball, sleep. Wake up, ball, eat. That was it”
“So when I'm done and say, ‘Alright Gilbert, have fun. Enjoy life.’ Alright cool. The week goes by, the summer goes by, and then what ends up happening to every athlete, the season changes”
“I can smell when the season's starting. Getting a little colder, that September smell is coming. What ends up happening is my body naturally goes into get-ready-for-the-season mode. Well, unfortunately there's no fucking season”
“So what I did when I first retired, I had to try to figure out how to be busy between nine o'clock and twelve. Then it's lunch time. Then I go to sleep. Then about five o'clock to eight, be busy again”
“So when basketball season starts, it's nerve wracking for players who are retired”
Josh Hart:
"I kind of wish the ticket prices weren't as crazy as they are. I feel like a lot of people who have been waiting for this moment for a very long time unfortunately aren't able to get into the building. The cheapest ticket $7K, $8,000. That's ridiculous"
Australia’s fertility rate has plummeted.
They’ve hit the lowest rate in history at 1.48 — well below the 2.1 replacement rate.
The average age of mothers was 25 in 1971, and now it’s 32.
This is a human catastrophe.
Newsome said he had a “break the glass” scenario if republicans looked like they would win.
Rahman literally conceded the election that night.
Seeing that Pratt was an actual threat, magically the mail ins save the day for Rahman over 6 days.
The same is happening to Hilton. Literally in the state of California, your vote (especially if you care) doesn’t matter.
Now that they have enough votes to surpass him, they are probably going to call the race when they said it could take weeks.
From no ID to vote, to Prop 50, to creating laws that prevent us from even investigating voter fraud and even considering allowing non citizens to vote, we are cooked as a state.
For the first time I actually feel powerless, and believe our state will never turn around.
