When the Netflix doc about covid drops in 20 years, our kids are going to watch it the way we watched footage of doctors recommending cigarettes. Absolutely dumbfounded that anyone could be so stupid and went along with any of it.

It’s going to be the most humiliating three hours of television ever made and every single one of us is going to be in it.

I expect Mamdani's public grocery stores will not offer significant price discounts relative to budget grocers. Thinking about his mandate they make things cheaper reminded me of "parchment guarantees" and this speech from Justice Scalia.

@txsalth2o @Marriott As someone who frequently stays in hotels, I love the idea of no alarm clocks. I have been woke up so many times over the years by a 5:00 AM alarm going off in an empty adjacent room.

I talk a lot about expensive housing as a barrier to the American Dream but THIS is a much bigger crisis:

The number one reason Americans cite for not having children is,

“Insufficient money”

A house is just a structure. Without a family inside, it’s pretty meaningless

If you ask an elderly person why they’re sentimental about their house, the answer is never,

“Oh, I love the big window in front!” or “I find joy in my stainless steel appliances”

It’s a memory of the people inside the home,

“Oh, my grandson loved watching trucks drive by outside the big window in front!”

“Remember how we all gathered in that kitchen for Sunday dinner?”

The American Dream was never just a White House and a picket fence. It was about the family inside

By not forming families, we are totally losing the plot

MSNBC reporter: "Nobody around here is wearing masks."

Guy on the street: "Including the cameraman." 🤣

@reaganreese_ The press that flies on the plane will be so conflicted. We hate Trump, but this is so awesome and we are so happy.

@sentdefender Gotta be honest, that thing is pretty bad ass.

The ultimate elitist flex: driving around with a multimillionaire auto collector in a classic Corvette, valued at hundreds of thousands of dollars, that gets 9 miles per gallon and emits more emissions than about two dozen modern cars ... bragging how he tried to kill the energy industry in America.

A couple of Germans on a road trip have done more to inspire patriotism ahead of America’s 250th anniversary than the entirety of the U.S. government.

@doggintrump Hey @grok, if CA wanted to have all their votes counted by election Day could they?

Rubio's habit of dropping rap lyrics into very serious situations shows that he understands that life is fundamentally absurd.

If the NHL wants iconic Conference Finals match ups they need to bring back 1-8 seeding.

A PARENT’S JOURNEY THROUGH YOUTH SPORTS:

Age 5: “He’s got a cannon.”
Age 6: “He’s the fastest kid out there. Coach said so.”
Age 7: “Rec ball isn’t challenging him anymore.”
Age 8: “We tried out for select. Obviously made it.”
Age 9: “$2,800 for the season. Plus uniforms. Plus tournaments. Plus hotels.”
Age 10: “Cooperstown is basically a family vacation, right?”
Age 11: “He needs a hitting guy. And a pitching guy. And probably a mental performance coach.”
Age 12: “I’m not a crazy sports parent. The OTHER parents are crazy.”
Age 13: “We changed schools. For academics. (And also baseball.)”
Age 14: “Showcases are a requirement at this age.”
Age 15: “Ya his ranking just ticked up. We’re cooking.”
Age 16: “He just needs to get seen by the right school.”
Age 17: “The D1 schools want him to walk on. He’ll earn a spot by sophomore year.”
Age 18: “Okay, D2 is actually really competitive.”
Age 19: “He’s redshirting. Strategic.”
Age 20: “He’s focusing on school now.”
Age 21: “You know what? He’s so much happier.”

Roughly 7% of high schoolers play in college.

About 1.5% of those get drafted.

Less than half of draftees ever play one day in the big leagues.

The odds of our kids going pro are somewhere between “struck by lightning” and “find a $100 in old shorts.”

I love youth sports (all my kids play a bunch of them) just keep a good perspective my friends. ✌️
