Consider that the Creator of the Universe, who is the most important Person that defines all existence, wants to be seen as more important than the sins we commit. We think we can get away with it, but God sees all. I'd be insulted too if I was Him. Our God is an awesome God.

[Kate Cornell @KateCornell]

Have you ever thought how awesome it is that God is a jealous God? The Creator of the universe is jealous of the thing that causes me to stray. Over me? What am I?

@KaitMarieox Considering his nickname was Lindsey "Grahamnesty", he was one of the primary architects of the illegal immigration crisis we have had.

I won't curse his name, but I hold no love for the man.

Also, the value of wage workers in the United States is expected to rise by a significant amount.

Stop illegal immigration, solve America's problems.

Government logic:

Smoking is bad - tax it to discourage it.
Drinking is bad - tax it to discourage it.
Gambling is bad - tax it to discourage it.

Income is good - tax it to discourage it?

Most Americans have no idea how hard the Founding Fathers fought NOT to fight. I mean they really exhausted every avenue with the king, and then some.

That tradition carries on today. We fight hard not to fight. Very hard.

But when we do?

Be somewhere else.

A tourist was seriously injured after a bison tossed them about 8 feet into the air in Yellowstone National Park. The attack was captured on video by photographer Mike Macleod.

@CurlyWurdy One word for you: FABULOUS. 😍

[Sama Hoole @SamaHoole]

A cow takes grass (inedible to humans) and produces:

- Meat (complete protein + fats)
- Milk (complete nutrition)
- Leather (clothing, tools)
- Tallow (cooking fat, soap, candles)
- Bones (tools, broth, fertilizer)
- Organs (nutrient-dense food)
- Manure (fertiliser)

This is complete resource utilisation from a plant humans cannot eat.

You cannot replicate this with any technology. The cow is performing chemical transformations we cannot industrialise.

Grass → complete human nutrition is alchemy.

The cow is worth more than any machine humans have invented.

It runs on rain and grass. Produces multiple products. Builds soil while operating. Sequesters carbon. Reproduces itself.

And we're told to eliminate them for environmental reasons.

While flying in almonds from California and soy from Brazil.

The stupidity is breathtaking.

In April 1967, a 20-year-old farm boy from South Dakota did something that would change the Vietnam War—he fell off his ship.
Seaman Douglas Hegdahl was standing on the deck of the USS Canberra when the recoil from a five-inch gun knocked him overboard into the Gulf of Tonkin. He treaded water for five hours, then swam for seven more. When fishermen finally pulled him from the sea, they handed him to North Vietnamese forces.
The interrogators didn't believe his story. They thought he was a spy, a commando, someone important. They beat him and threw him into the Hanoi Hilton—the most notorious prison of the war.
But Hegdahl made a choice that would save hundreds of lives. He became "The Incredibly Stupid One."
He played up his country accent. He stared wide-eyed at things he'd never seen before. When they ordered him to write a confession, he claimed he couldn't read or write. The guards, used to illiterate peasants in their own country, believed him completely. They even assigned someone to teach him—who eventually gave up, convinced Hegdahl was hopeless.
What they didn't know was that Hegdahl had a photographic memory and the discipline of a soldier.
Because they thought he was harmless, the guards let him sweep the prison yards. He walked between cellblocks. He memorized the layout of the camp and the route into Hanoi. He even sabotaged enemy trucks by adding dirt to their fuel tanks.
But his real mission was gathering intelligence.
With the help of fellow prisoner Joe Crecca, Hegdahl set out to memorize something impossible: the names, ranks, Social Security numbers, and personal details of over 250 fellow American prisoners. How do you remember 250 names under torture, starvation, and the constant threat of death?
He used "Old MacDonald Had a Farm."
Every day, Hegdahl repeated the names to the tune of the children's song. Over and over. Names became melodies. Data became memory. While the guards laughed at the "stupid" American humming in the prison yard, he was conducting one of the most important intelligence operations of the war.
When North Vietnam offered early release as a propaganda tool, Hegdahl initially refused—prisoners had sworn an oath to leave together or not at all. But his commanding officer, Captain Dick Stratton, ordered him to go. "You're carrying the names," Stratton told him. "Their families need to know they're alive."
On August 5, 1969, Hegdahl walked out of the Hanoi Hilton.
When he returned to the United States, he recited every single name. Every rank. Every identifying detail. His memory transformed 250+ missing men into confirmed prisoners of war. At the Paris Peace Talks in 1970, he confronted North Vietnamese negotiators with firsthand accounts of torture—and the pressure he brought helped secure the eventual release of all American POWs.
That farm boy who "fell off a ship" had just freed an entire army.
Decades later, in 1998, Hegdahl stood before an audience of veterans and families at the Richard Nixon Library. Thirty years after his release, he stood and sang—to the tune of "Old MacDonald Had a Farm"—the names of 256 men he'd memorized in captivity.
Not one name forgotten.
Sometimes the most dangerous people are the ones your enemy thinks are harmless. Sometimes genius wears the mask of stupidity. And sometimes, a child's lullaby becomes the most powerful weapon of all.
Ever know anyone that smart that could play that dumb for that long?
Amazing!

Great stream tonight. Lots of salt, but winning with Murlocs is never bad! Fun and frivolity, learning decks as I go. It really is a grind session on ladder.

Is today is the last day of your life, what are you doing with it?

If the answer makes your uncomfortable, you're not doing right by yourself or others.

Get it together.

I believe that the very purpose of life is to be happy. From the very core of our being, we desire contentment. In my own limited experience I have found that the more we care for the happiness of others, the greater is our own sense of well-being. Cultivating a close, warmhearted feeling for others automatically puts the mind at ease. It is the principal source of success in life.
