LeBron James casually walks into the basketball arena while the National Anthem is playing and takes a seat.
Zero respect for the country that gave him the opportunity to be a basketball star.
Zero respect for the country that allowed him to become a billionaire.
Zero respect for the men and women who defend our country so he can live his life.
Shameful.

Many people often harbor unrealistic expectations when it comes to love. As such, people sometimes fail to see that love, like with other aspects of existence, will often have an inevitable end. Cherish moments while they last. Cโest la vie.
Matagal nating hinintay ang araw na ito, sa pananalig na ang tama at totoo ang palaging mananaig.
Pinatutunayang muli ngayon na walang basehan ang mga paratang laban kay Senator Leila. Ang lahat ng mga paninira at panggigipit na naranasan niya sa loob ng halos pitong taon ay bunga ng kaniyang pangangahas na tumindig para sa tamaโpara sa ating mga kababayan.
Through all these years, Sen. Leila has been a source of inspiration for us. Her courage and her faith lent so many of us the resolve to continue fighting the good fight, to speak truth to power, and to keep believing that the Filipino people deserve so much more.
Masaya ako na sa wakas ay namayani ang hustisya at makakapiling na natin nang malaya si Sen Leila. Tagumpay ito hindi lang para sa kaniya, kundi para sa ating bayan.
I caught myself musingly staring at a grandfather and his apo sharing a snack at McDonaldโs - a scene I never appreciated until now; unfortunately, it is a scene long passed.
I do not condone the violence of Hamas and it must be held accountable, but I refuse to support the Israeli state free pass to wipe out an entire race as part of its "righteous vengeance" in a destructive cycle of violence.
If the only real thing is the here and now, then we should try our best to find our moments of significance, connection, beauty, love, and happiness. We have nothing to lose in the midst of an existence devoid of inherent purpose.
We are constantly looking for meaning and purpose in a cosmos that is completely uninterested in our existence. This constant craving for meaning and the universe's apparent meaninglessness is the sum of our experiences.
Yet, rather than succumbing to pessimism and despair, we should face life's intrinsic lack of meaning with courage, hope and honesty; by "living without appeal," authentically and with passion.
