Life can be as confusing as the world is complicated. It can even be a downright horrible existence. But make no mistake - your life has value. If not to yourself, to others. If not to others, to God. If you lack the faith to believe that, just know that your will to live encourages (& often inspires) those around you, whether you see it or not.
@elonmusk I asked Grok to make an overhead sketch of my house & yard in order to submit a landscaping plan to my HOA & it said it couldn’t do it 😑 #MakeItMakeSense
Babe Ruth was born in 1895. That means he was a young teenager when the T206 cards (Honus Wagner) came out. Wonder if he ever pulled one from a cigarette box.
Nothing infuriates an uninformed Congressional Dem more than when they realize they voluntarily triggered a debate with someone who actually knows what they are talking about, reads federal statute and adheres to Supreme Court precedent. Today’s self-implosion by @rosadelauro was quite remarkable to witness. Without apology or regret, I will always adhere to the best available reading of federal statute pursuant to the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Loper Bright.

As one who’s worked in the field for many years I can confidently say that the goal of healthcare organizations is NOT to provide excellent care to patients. It is to provide competitive care relative to other organizations & to meet metrics that allow them to SAY they provide excellent care. #NotWhatISignedUpFor
We will never have, by every good metric imaginable, a President as great as Donald Trump. He has literally been one man in the storm, turning back a tsunami of graft, corruption, and sloth in Washington and beyond. He is a gladiator, a truly unstoppable force of nature.
