Love
Has a way of wilting
Or blossoming
At the strangest,
Most unpredictable hour.
This is how love is,
An uncontrollable beast
In the form of a flower.

I just don’t know how you can hate flopping (everyone should) while also saying this was a bad call. Such a clear and egregious flop #JustMyThoughtsFromAMessiFanRegardlessOfWhoMyGOATIs

How does butchering a disabled girl and her Dad “Free Palestine”?

May we never forget 🕯️

Rut Perez who suffered from Muscular Dystrophy was brutally murdered by Palestinians on October 7th along with her father Eric Perez.

A father taking his disabled daughter to a music festival that was focused on peace.

This is what the “Pro-Palestine” movement celebrates.

There is no way I will ever let those who called October 7th a “resistance movement” forget what they are cheering on. Pure evil.

May their memory forever be a blessing 🕯️🕯️

Israel should have never let Ro Khanna in the country to begin with. Why do you allow your enemies in your country?

Much like Europe, Israel makes the mistake of adopting Western values to a fault. Your enemies use your “openness” as a weapon to destroy you with.

This is why this dude is having tantrums in Israel trying to move this out of the news.

🕯️ Alina Plahti 🕯️

Alina was brutally murdered on October 7th, and wasn’t able to be buried until October 30th.

Her mother said she spoke to her daughter after the violence started, and she told her she was running to escape from the terrorists.

She called her again 15 minutes later, “and she said ‘Mommy, I can’t talk right now, I’ll call you later, I love you.'”

That was the last she heard from her. “We waited three weeks. Alina was very strong, until the last moment we didn’t believe we would get such news.”

May her memory be a blessing 🕯️

On This Day — July 10, 1933

Time Magazine put Joseph Goebbels on its cover — and praised the Nazis.

Just months after Hitler seized power, the American magazine featured the Nazi propaganda minister and described Adolf Hitler as a “vegetarian superman.” The article lauded how Nazi rule had “lifted the spirit of the German people” and openly noted that one of the regime’s most effective tactics was “explaining away all Germany’s defeats and trials in terms of the Jew.”

Goebbels’ own line — “The Jews are to blame!” — actually appeared on the front cover.

This was mainstream American media treating the rising Nazi regime with a mix of fascination and reluctant admiration — while the machinery of antisemitic propaganda was already in full gear.

By the time the world woke up, it was too late for millions.

Some warnings were printed in plain sight.

This knocks out—no pun intended—the Miami Heat out of the LeBron James sweepstakes, right?

There is no good reason for LeBron to go back at this point: The Heat will likely not contend for an NBA title in 2026-27.
