๐ When your sister brings her boyfriend home for the first time to meet the famโฆ so of course we hit him with the full post-prayer Pledge of Allegiance like itโs completely normal! ๐บ๐ธ Welcome to the family, buddy!
My sister was dying, the rest of us were cracking up, and poor guy just went with it. Family traditions at their finest!
Who else has chaotic welcome rituals for new significant others? Drop your stories below! ๐
Elon Musk was born in South Africa but SpaceX, Tesla, and Neuralink were born in America.
Talent is the seed. Capitalism is the soil. There is no other country on earth that grows it like this.
That's uniquely American ๐บ๐ธ
To use a leftie term, Iโm feeling especially triggered by the response to what happened to Kallie Keeler. All the anon accounts screeching that it's a normal part of wrestling, just an "oil check" (an illegal move by the way, that this was not), that she's too wimpy and weak to be a wrestler if she can't handle it.
Bullshit.
She was assaulted. A man stuck his fingers inside her vagina and held them there.
This incident echoes dark patterns that I have witnessed and even been caught in the midst of for decades.
Bad men will hide behind shields of respectability while abusing girls and women in plain sight.
As a former gymnast and whistleblower, I see the parallels to Larry Nassar immediately. Nassar hid behind the respectability of his medical degree and his role as USA Gymnastics team doctor. After he abused young female athletes for 30 years, finally women came forward in droves to report the assaults. Those victims were attacked for months until there were too many to ignore.
My coach hid behind his "coach" title, while claiming to keep athletes safe as a spotter, then molesting in plain view. Athletes were shamed into silence.
Predators will exploit any opening to find, abuse and assault their victims.
Dominique Alexander is done. Irrelevant.
He has done nothing but race-bait and lie throughout this entire case.
It was NOT an all-white jury. The jury selection process happened exactly as it was supposed to. Karmelo is going to prison because his actions were indefensible.

GREAT TOOL OR NO? ๐
Serpentine belt swap in seconds instead of wrestling it like a greased hog? This lil' REMOVE/INSTALL wizard just saved my fingers and my sanity.
Dadโs toolbox approves.

Last year, the SPLC added TPUSA to their so-called "hate map," placing us alongside neo-Nazi organizations and the Ku Klux Klan. The day before Charlie was murdered, they published a newsletter attacking him and Turning Point USA.
Today, they doubled down and stood by that designation.
They have to, because it's their real mission. As we now know thanks to the Trump DOJ, the SPLC itself funds violent extremist groups to stoke fear among the public, so they can stick organizations like Turning Point USA on their "hate map" and tar us by association.
Turning Point USA has, from the beginning, stood for open conversations and respectful debate regardless of creed or color.
All along, the real hate group is the SPLC, which recklessly sows hate every day with its lies.
Two days after Henry died Hampshire Police secretly recorded Digwa in a police van speaking Punjabi to his brother. Digwa admitted stabbing Henry. Discussed claiming self defence. Made zero mention of racial abuse. Not one word.
Hampshire Police had that tape.
They knew Digwa was lying about the racist attack. They had the evidence. They had his own words and then tried to smear Henry as the aggressor anyway.
Three days after his death their statement read โit was reported two men had been assaulted by an unknown man.โ Henry was the unknown man. The boy bleeding out on the street. They flipped it.
Family complained. Statement changed. Then police told the family their NEXT update would again infer Henry was the initial aggressor. His family had to fight them a second time. While grieving their murdered son.
Then during the trial Hampshire tried to issue a statement telling the public to stop talking about it online. Calling it disinformation. The CPS had to step in. Told them they were about to collapse their own murder case.
This is the force that handcuffed a dying boy. Missed the murder weapon twice. Had a secret tape proving the killer lied. And still tried to bury Henry's name.
That's not incompetence. That's a machine protecting itself. At the expense of a dead boy's reputation and three officers are still on active duty. Not suspended. Treated as witnesses. To their own actions.
Hampshire Police didn't just fail Henry on that street. They kept failing him for six months after he died.
