I'm going to be slowing down a bit on posting the USMNT National Parks jerseys. After today, I'll be posting 1-2 every other day or so until every park has their own. I started writing a new trilogy of novels back in January, and I put them on pause during the World Cup. However, I'm still hoping to have all three released by Christmas, so I need to turn my attention back to finishing those! I do everything for my books, from writing and editing to cover design to narrating and editing the audiobooks, so they take a lot of attention and effort - no AI is used for my novels. If you're curious about my writing, which is much better in novel form than in my X posts, I have an anthology of my three currently released books that is free for the next 5 days on Kindle (three books and almost 400k words for free!). Starting Monday, the three novels will be free individually on Kindle for 5 days, as well. My novels are not for everyone, as they approach their subject matters in ways that are not typical for their genres, so definitely take a gander at the reviews, especially for my first novel, When the Lights Went Out. This is a link to my Amazon author page, and from there, you can navigate to any of the books to see if they interest you! I'll also link them individually below with their back blurbs. I'll also be posting the first chapter for my first novel as an article soon, so you can read it directly from there! Two of the audiobooks are available on Audible, but all three are available directly from my website as ZIP file downloads. Thanks everyone! https://t.co/XhdyyFvHsc

@DWLundberg Even then, those questions have easy answers. There is clearly a set of trees that blocked their view. Also, the dino was eating, so as they were driving up, it wasn't moving. It then just moved to a new tree as they stopped. 🤣

Big day today. I have my first real job interview since I left my last job in February of 2024 to pursue writing. I also have a meeting with a lender for a potential business loan. The business loan would require using my house as collateral, so it's a backup plan. I've had work since 2024, but all part time and making less than $1300 a month, and without money to market my books, I didn't make much from that. This job pays $80k a year. With a dog having just been diagnosed with Valley Fever and costs for him being nearly $800/month, my credit cards now near maxed out, and my student loan repayments starting next week (useless marketing degree), this is desperately needed. Been a very long time since I've been this nervous! 🤣

@Kiunga0 @FabrizioRomano Why does Messi look like Gru when he nods his head 🤣

@CryptoJon319 @heydaedae @USMNT Hope @nikefootball steals the idea!

[VitusHarp @Vitusharp]

Got a number of additional National Parks @USMNT jersey designs. I definitely want to work more on them. I'm no graphic designer or digital artist, so the designs may not be your favorite, but it's the IDEA behind them. There is SO MUCH POTENTIAL here.

@jimstewartson It's the Blue Angels, not some trainee.

Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park @USMNT Away Jersey. "The Black Canyon of the Gunnison's unique and spectacular landscape was formed slowly by the action of water and rock scouring down through hard Proterozoic crystalline rock. No other canyon in North America combines the narrow opening, sheer walls, and startling depths offered by the Black Canyon of the Gunnison." - https://t.co/El2ivQemku

I'm no artist, and AI and Photoshop were used. I am not doing this to make money. The art of these is not the point, though, so even if you aren't a fan of the design itself, judge it on the idea. These are purely to get the attention of @nikefootball and @USMNT so that they can get their real artists and designers to do this idea the right way. If they got their artists and designers behind this idea, we could have some of the best jerseys in the world and jerseys that showcase some of the most beautiful natural landscapes of this great country. More to come!

@ClawForThatInch I... I didn't need that image! 🤣

[VitusHarp @Vitusharp]

@USMNTCORNER Seems a bit high scoring for how they've played, but the outcome might be that! Whoever wins, it's hard for me to see more than a 2-1 or 1-0. Never underestimate the soothsayers of X, though 🤣

[VitusHarp @Vitusharp]

@XianVCon @USMNTCORNER True, but they weren't drowning yet. Once they bunkered, they went under fast.

[VitusHarp @Vitusharp]

@Barajas_Jal @ArturoVill7 England gave it just as good, though. It was an aggressive match from both sides.

[VitusHarp @Vitusharp]

@ogmooney @AwayDaysFB 🤣 pure absurdity. Love it.

[VitusHarp @Vitusharp]

@Muneeb_08 That doesn't really look like a foul. That looks more 50/50 than anything.

[VitusHarp @Vitusharp]

@NoodleHairCR7 Not even close, tbh...

[VitusHarp @Vitusharp]

@k_diddley @AyeeItzAphex @barstoolsports 🤣🤣 you seem stable.

[VitusHarp @Vitusharp]

@AyeeItzAphex @barstoolsports Guess not. And you won't understand my perspective, but that's part of the beauty of being human.

North Cascades National Park @USMNT Away Jersey. "Just three hours from Seattle, North Cascades National Park’s rugged beauty is characterized by jagged peaks, deep forested valleys, cascading waterfalls, and over 300 glaciers — more than any other U.S. park outside of Alaska. Thousands of voices from the past crackle to life in this alpine landscape, from Native Americans to early European and American fur traders and explorers to homesteaders and miners, all of which called this land home." - https://t.co/0tqzbXlJPY

@hunterparker99 My biggest issue with him is physicality. I def do expect that to improve while there! The Championship is good at that! Or at least can be!
