The best things cannot be told because they transcend thought, the 2nd best are misunderstood because they are the thoughts that are supposed to refer to that which cannot be thought about and the 3rd best are what we talk about, family, politics, economics, literature, sports.
Who would hope that jake tapper would ask trump to name the bill of rights, or what the U .S. Constitution says & how many ammendments it has, to name 3 supreme court cases excluding roe, Or could he recite the pledge of alliegence & basic history of the United States
34 felony convictions
54 pending criminal charges
2 impeachments
2 popular vote losses
$88M owed to E Jean Carroll
$450M owed for civil fraud
$8T added to nat'l debt
2.9M net loss of jobs
Is this what Trump meant when he promised "numbers like we've never seen"?
Does anyone out there in this twitisphere agree that if sam harris came out as an independent candidate and spoke to the American people in the way he does with compassion and critical thought and common sense would be welcomed and needed by this divided country
Trump conman, bullshit artist & LIAR Trump doesn't care for anyone but HIMSELF. The only reason he wants to become president again is to keep himself out of prison & other reasons is to raise millions of $ from suckers in politics which he can no longer hustle from banks.
Anyone notice that on X there's always advertising, also this new X won't allow you to share any bad news about tesla cars, it's service & complaints. I guess it algorithms won't allow free communication that provides the truth about elon musk and his co's failing sales & profits
Trump and his co traitors do not belong in any public office, nevermind as leaders. Jordan and his elk are a cult of dangerous people. Hopefully Trump and his buddies will never be in power ever again !
Please re post thanks.

Joy.
I’m not sure how often in the average person’s day joy is a thing.
Joy isn’t just feeling happy.
Joy isn’t just feeling content at the end of the day.
Joy stems from massive wins, successes, but most importantly, from a sense of well-being.
I will contend that the people who experience the most joy per capita are those who share their life with dogs.
I can present my case and convince you by the time you are done this three minute read.
Our two dogs are completely different in their personalities.
Bunsen, our Bernese Mountain Dog, is a giant couch potato, content to sleep the day away like a lazy, fuzzy log.
Beaker, our Golden Retriever, likes nothing more than to curl up next to or on top of a human and just be close.
While sleepy bears and cuddly golden wolves can definitely change your mood for the better, when it is time to explore nature both Bunsen and Beaker WAKE up.
They also WAKE UP something everyone has deep inside.
It’s joy.
Dogs have a connection with nature so profound it would take a lifetime of watching and learning to experience even a fraction of it the way that they do.
As soon as it’s time for a “walk” the bear wakes up from his slumber.
As soon as it’s time for a “walk” the golden wolf SPRINGS into action.
Bunsen stands at the door with an expectant look, slightly tilting his head to one side, maintaining eye contact in such a way that if you were to leave him behind your very soul would be cracked into a thousand guilty pieces.
Beaker flashes a megawatt smile, her golden glimmer spreading from that smile to her eyes.
It’s time.
I should note that we are so lucky in that our walks are through the forests and fields on the farmland behind our house.
Once that door is open and the command is given, the dogs EXPLODE out of the house.
They have been waiting for this moment all day.
If joy is happiness and excitement from well-being, winning, and success, you see that personified within a dog during this moment.
The dogs chase each other initially, finally getting to sprint in long stretches that inside living doesn’t allow for.
They pick their spot to relieve themselves and then it’s time to do the thing in nature.
Beaker scampers off to the tall grass to dig and hunt, and Bunsen lumbers around with a giant smile, smelling the smells of the world.
Once we head down into the creek and up the other side, whatever dour thoughts the humans in the group have had are gone.
I speak from experience.
Tough days with kids during our day job, interactions with humans at the supermarket that were negative, trolls on Twitter, even tiny arguments as a couple are just gone.
The joy of dogs bounding through nature, smiling, spinning, digging, smelling, it does something to you.
Your bucket full of stress, anxiety, sadness, and anger which has runneth over is roundhouse kicked into the sun.
There is no bucket. It is VAPOURIZED.
There is only joy.
There is only your time with the dogs.
How can such a simple act launch your spirit into the freaking stratosphere?
It’s simple.
You are connecting to nature, something that all of us need to do for wellness. You are connecting with living creatures - your dogs.
You are WATCHING joy and if humans are good at anything, its mirroring the actions of others.
Neurons within your brain see happiness and fire in a kaleidoscope of signals for you also to feel that joy.
Is this cheating?
Are you taking a short cut?
Who cares. Really. WHO CARES.
What do you remember each every day?
You remember the points in your day where you WON.
You remember the points in the day where you had SUCCESS.
You remember JOY.
Do we deserve dogs? We can debate it.
A better question is should be we be thankful for dogs?
Absolutely, and with all our hearts.
The are precious fountains of joy.
Might be very helpful when pulled over by a police officer to record the interaction between citizens and the police department that are there to protect and serve the public, while each party respects the individual and the law.
Americans can't get anything done, the American people R hard workers & smart, the only ones who don't work R the politicians, who R only about themselves & R holding America back from our real possibilities in all areas. We don't need them, we could vote by referendums agree ?
AMAZING! It took less than two weeks to rebuild the collapsed lanes of I-95 in Philadelphia. Kudos to the Biden administration and Gov. Josh Shapiro — and a huge THANK YOU to the union trade workers who got the job done!! 🏗️
