@AbbyJohnson Everyday is a NEW day to get right with the Lord…. He whispers to our hearts we have to stop and listen… kuddos to you Abby……lots of noise of this world, seek the WORD.
Hey Jasmine…
Black pilot here.
I think you missed the plot.
Then again, that’s becoming a pattern.
I graduated from West Point.
I went through Army flight school.
I learned to fly the AH-64 Apache.
I deployed to combat and flew 55 combat missions over Baghdad.
Nobody handed me a cockpit because of my skin color.
Nobody lowered the standards for me.
Nobody looked at me and said, “Let’s check a diversity box.”
That’s what people like you don’t seem to understand.
Suggesting that Black pilots, Black engineers, Black doctors, or Black leaders need special preferences to succeed is not empowering, it’s insulting.
I didn’t want a different standard.
I wanted the same standard.
And when you’re flying into combat, the American people don’t care what race the pilot is.
They care whether the pilot is qualified.
Merit isn’t racist.
Excellence isn’t discriminatory.
And reducing every achievement to skin color says far more about your worldview than it does about mine.
A man saw his phone storage was ''full'' after 18 months but he barely had any photos.
He had deleted apps. Cleared messages. Removed downloads. The warning kept coming back every two weeks:
"Storage Almost Full.''
He went to the Apple Store ready to buy a new iPhone.
The employee at the Genius Bar held up a hand: *"Before you spend a thousand dollars, let me show you something."*
She opened Settings → General → iPhone Storage and shook her head.
"There are 7 things eating your storage right now. Apple ships every iPhone with all of them turned on. Nobody tells you they exist. Let's go through them."
Here's what she showed him in the next 8 minutes. 🧵
