Right! And we are all brainwashed to think it’s something to aspire to. I know this is old but the difference between one million and one billion is so vast I think people can’t comprehend it. One million seconds equals is 11.5 days. One billion seconds is 31.7 Years. And Elon is about to be a trillionaire. That would be 31,700 years. Now do the math in dollars. And the fact is that no one in the history of the world has ever attained that wealth by any other means then some form of domination over others. I do not begrudge financial success, but I do have a real problem when the the top 0.1% (130,000 families) hold 6 times the wealth as the bottom 66 million households combined. Put another way 905 individuals in America have twice the wealth of the entire bottom half of the country- 165,000,000 people. And it wasn’t always this way. The top 0.1 percent’s share of the U.S. wealth pie has grown 59.6 percent since just 1989.
@Damon98_ I know this horse is beaten to death, but it's quite insane the number of injuries we had. In spring training I was like "man why do they have 8 starters".. and like 3 of those guys are left right now?
Sweep day. Time to be greedy. Is it even being greedy? I don't think so. You won the Corbin vs Skenes pitching matchup. Today it's Mitch Keller vs your ACE Dylan Cease. You've won 4 in a row for the first time all season. Keep the momentum going.
Time to go on a run.
John Schneider says that two innings from Varland wasn’t Plan A, but he was efficient enough and he trusted him.
When Varland came into the dugout after the 8th, he told Schneider:
“This is mine. I want to finish this.” #BlueJays
As evidenced by the unbridled promotion and implementation of technology at the expense of human dignity, we are truly experiencing an eclipse of the sense of what it means to be human. It is imperative to recover an understanding of the true meaning and grandeur of humanity as intended by God. It is in this sense that the challenge we currently face is not technological, but anthropological, and it is my hope that the Encyclical Letter to be published within a few days will contribute to answering this challenge.
