Benoit Blanc instantly becoming protective of Jud once he sees how honest and genuine he is, even in something he doesn't personally believe in, and despite calling him "padre" (father) a moment before, he switches to "son" instantly #WakeUpDeadMan
Wow. Growing up we always called it “Smear the person with the football regardless of how they identify themselves in terms of gender or sexual orientation” but to each their own I guess
Andrew Schulz: "It's just funny to me that there are people that were happy Charlie Kirk got sh*t because they disagreed on opinions, and they're fighting for due process for people who are driving fentanyl into the f*cking country."
The left: "Charlie kind of deserved it."
Also the left: "You can't just kill narco terrorists who are bringing deadly drugs into our country."
Make it make sense.
Hold on just a minute.
You’re telling me there was a DNA match claiming 99.99% accuracy that Ilhan Omar married her brother… and the guy who posted it, built a website, and put it out there gets arrested by the FBI on child sex charges within 24 hours?
Come on. That’s not a coincidence. That’s absurd.
A claim explosive enough to end a political career, instantly neutralized by an arrest so radioactive it guarantees no one would ever touch the story again. Wrapped up, buried, and memory-holed overnight?
How did I never hear about this?
Did you know J.R.R Tolkien predicted exactly how the modern society would fall?
How, you might ask? By telling us how Gondor fell into ruin.
In his description of the decline of Gondor, we see the blueprint of a dying civilization.
It wasn't an external enemy that rotted Gondor from within. It was a spiritual sickness: the prioritization of the past over the future.
Tolkien writes: "The old wisdom borne out of the west was forsaken. Kings made tombs more splendid than the houses of the living, and counted the old names of their descent dearer than the names of their sons."
They became obsessed with aesthetics, comfort, and memory, while losing the will to create.
The death of vitality. Are we not experiencing this with low birth rates and the death of excellence in favor of comfort?
Tolkien describes "Childless lords" sitting in "aged halls musing on heraldry."
This is the ultimate symptom of cultural decay: sterility.
When a society values its history ("names of descent") more than its future ("names of sons"), it has already surrendered it's spirit to the grave. It retreats into "high, cold towers" to ask questions of the stars, obsessing over theory and abstraction. While the real world crumbles below.
But again, how did he know? How did Tolkien see into our future?
Because he understood that civilizations don't die by murder; they die by suicide.
They die when they stop fighting for the living and start worshipping the dead.
The lesson is simple: a culture that does not prioritize its children over its comfort is building nothing but a splendid tomb.
Coach O trying to get Adrian Peterson’s dad permission to transfer prisons, so he would commit to USC, is one of the most insane recruiting stories I’ve ever heard
Many act as if slavery was a uniquely American crime.
“One reason,” says author Wilfred Reilly (@wil_da_beast630), “is that a lot of black people survived here.”
He argues that much of what Americans are taught about slavery is just wrong:
If you ever need proof of how essential James Earl Jones’ voice was to Darth Vader, just listen to what Vader actually sounded like on set. The difference is the entire myth.
Was talking to @XSchauffele about lower body mechanics and realized my right foot is ruining my transition. Likely because of my sports history, but the way your feet use the ground for power is very different than any other sport I’ve played.
