Best thing I’ve ever done is stop listening to what society says I should do at my age

[Thomas Massie @RepThomasMassie]

Tonight’s outcome isn’t about placing faith in Democrats or socialist principles; it’s about holding Republicans accountable for betraying their promises.

All Republicans had to do was:

1. put Americans First
2. not start another war
3. prosecute sex traffickers

[Zack Conley @Zcon5]

Spot on… been saying for months GOP will get crushed. You have to listen to the concerns of people

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

Regular Americans are worried about AI taking their jobs. Trump’s response was to insist on giving AI a fun new name. He had no plan to address the actual concern people have. And this is the Blue Wave in a nutshell. Relentlessly focused on the shit nobody cares about, at the expense of the things they do care about.

The Bible told us where Noah's Ark landed. 4,000 years later, they're drilling right there.

Genesis 8:4: "The ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat."

This week, scientists started drilling into a 515-foot, boat-shaped formation in the mountains of Ararat in eastern Turkey. Radar scans show angular walls, a central corridor, and three levels underground. Genesis 6:16 says the ark had three decks.

The right place. The right shape. The right size. The right number of decks.

Skeptics said the Hittites never existed, until their capital was dug up. They said Pontius Pilate was a legend, until his name turned up carved in stone. They said King David was a myth, until an ancient inscription named "the house of David."

Every time, the ground ends up agreeing with the Bible.

The Ark was real. The Flood was real. God's Word was always true.

There’s a reason the NBA isn’t called the MNBA.

It isn’t a men-only league. There’s no sex requirement to play in the NBA. Women aren’t barred from joining. There just hasn’t been one good enough to make a roster.

Which is exactly why we have a separate women’s league.

If biological men are eligible for that league too, it defeats the whole purpose of having a separate women’s league in the first place.

[Enes Kanter FREEDOM @EnesFreedom]

After careful consideration and reviewing the current eligibility guidelines,
I’m officially declaring myself a @WNBA prospect.

If simply declaring who you are is all that’s required, then I meet every single requirement necessary to compete in the WNBA.

My team and I have carefully examined the WNBA’s eligibility criteria and governing framework surrounding self-identification and inclusion. Based on the current guidelines, I can and am officially declaring my eligibility for the upcoming WNBA draft in April 2027.

I know my presence on the court will stir up strong opinions.
I am definitely not here to mock, make fun of, or disrespect any community or personal choices.
I’m simply asking that the current rules be applied equally to everyone — the rules that represent the very values many WNBA players and coaches have publicly advocated for.
My team and I are prepared to ensure these guidelines are applied equally, consistently, and without exception, and I look forward to the #WNBA honoring its stated principles.

See you at training camp.

Tom Brady reveals the overlooked reason practice squad players never succeed in the NFL

It’s not a lack of talent.

Brady watched it happen for 20 years. The pattern was undeniable.

As soon as a practice squad player got promoted and had to perform under real pressure, they crumbled. It took years for Brady to understand why.

“There’s 53 guys on the active roster and there’s now 15 guys on the practice squad. So there’s 68 players. But those practice squad players are important because if anybody on the active roster gets hurt, they can get elevated to the squad.”

“These scout team receivers would come in and practice with the scout team and they do really well. And I’d be watching. I’m like, ‘Man, we got to get that guy. Let’s get him up on offense. He’s making a lot of plays.’”

“Then all of a sudden, we’re like, ‘Hey man, you’re doing really well. You got to come over here and deal with the pressure of succeeding now that you have expectation.’”

“And these guys are like, they weren’t prepared for it. So whatever we saw in practice against where there was not a lot of pressure, now when they’re put in a situation where there’s an expectation for performance, they’ve never had to personally deal with that and then they fail.”

“And then what I realized was a lot of guys on those practice squads, they don’t want to be elevated to the roster.”

“They’re very happy living this life where they could tell their family and friends, which I have no problem with that. But the reality is a lot of guys don’t want the pressure of dealing with top.”

Twenty years in the league and seven Super Bowl rings later, Brady learned that talent wasn’t the hardest thing to find.

It was people who actually wanted the pressure that comes with being great.

🚨 Spencer Pratt FIRES BACK at ABC7 News reporter after he asks: “You've been open about some of your struggles financially in the past.”

Spencer Pratt: “I've never had struggles. I had choices.”

ABC7 News: “But managing money.”

Spencer Pratt: “Let's be clear, my money, not taxpayer money.”

ABC7 News: “But a $15B budget that you will have to manage as elected mayor. I just want to know, for the citizens of Los Angeles, how can they trust you with that $15B?”

Spencer Pratt: “Right now, we have Mayor Bass. She just spent $400M to house 1,400 people. I could hire 10 better accountants that I probably have on my phone that can make sure we take $400M and we don't waste it on 1,400 people.”

“We live under their FAILED experience of managing the budget.”

[TV News Now @TVNewsNow]

🚨 REPORTER: “Are you a big MAGA person?”

Spencer Pratt: “I’m a big NOBODY person. I’m a big Spencer Pratt Angelino person… I’m NOT part of any political party. I’m running a nonpartisan race. I’m supposed to represent ALL of Los Angeles… and that’s the problem. Everyone has lost the plot. The mayor is supposed to be a nonpartisan race. That’s why there’s no letter next to anyone’s name.”

“It’s supposed to make the police, water and power, fire, streets without potholes, the lights on, no drug addicts in front of the park, no drug addicts n*ked in front of kid’s school. That is my party, ANGRY Angelinos.”

“My message is COMMON SENSE.”

lol he voted with the republicans 91% of the time

[Jackie Chea ⚖️ @Fair_and_Biased]

.@JDVance explains that despite his personal affection for @RepThomasMassie & agreement with him on some issues, Massie’s burned too many bridges through obstinacy:

“I think the problem with Thomas (and I’ve told him this in private and now I guess I’ll say it in public) is that it’s one thing to disagree with the party on a particular issue….voting against the party on every single issue – you’re eventually going to make too many enemies…

Every time that we’ve needed Thomas for a vote, he’s been completely unwilling to provide it…

We can never count on him for some of the most difficult votes.

…Politics is politics, and when you always vote against the party, you can’t expect the party to actually back you.”

Boomers were “mean drunks” who’d come home hammered and beat their family

Gen Xers were “fun drunks” who maybe had some beers on the couch every day and it totally wasn’t alcoholism but it kinda was

Gen Z grew up with them as parents and grandparents so of course they don’t drink.

6 coisas que os filhos fazem só por um tempo... e depois desaparecem para sempre 😞

1. Um dia eles param de correr até você assim que acordam.
Aquele barulho de pezinhos no corredor, o abraço na cama... aos poucos dá lugar ao silêncio e à porta fechada do quarto.

2. Eles param de dizer: "Mamãe, papai, olha!"
Já não correm mais para te mostrar cada pedrinha ou cada desenho.
Pouco a pouco, o mundo deles fica mais silencioso... e mais deles.

3. Um dia eles param de segurar sua mão enquanto caminham.
E de repente você sente o vazio.
Não porque o amor acabou... mas porque eles estão crescendo.

4. Um dia eles param de dormir nos seus braços.
Aquele apoio no seu ombro, a respiração ficando calma...
são momentos que, sem aviso, acabam.

5. Em algum momento, eles deixam de acreditar que o seu beijo resolve tudo.
Antes bastava um curativo.
Depois, as feridas mais profundas começam a se esconder na música e no silêncio... não mais nos seus braços.

6. Eles param de te trazer seus "tesouros".
Folhas, papéis, pequenas descobertas.
Aquele amor puro e espontâneo... simplesmente diminui.

A infância não é um ensaio. Acontece agora e, enquanto ainda pedem colo e chamam você o dia inteiro, aproveite cada momento. ❤️

NEW: U.S. Marine Combat Veteran, Mike Egan, races for 27 hours, traveling more than 110 miles in a wheelchair at the G1M Ultra.

Egan was seen getting out of his wheelchair at one point due to the mud.

The Go One More Ultra is a race in which contestants run a 4.2-mile loop every hour on the hour until only one person remains.

Egan placed in the top 28, outlasting 117 people.

Absolutely insane.

NEW: Disney Cruise Line debuted a new ad titled “Midnight Magic” during the Academy Awards on ABC, and it’s a tearjerker.

The spot follows a father and son sharing a quiet tradition aboard a Disney ship, a ritual that carries their relationship from childhood into adulthood.
