Attention Young Women:

I am surrounded by 20ish-year-old guys who want to date and get married. They are smart, capable, hard working and cute. They're hesitant to ask girls out or don't know where to find the good ones. If you are one of the good ones, here's what you need to do.

Step 1: Change your expectations about how you'll meet. You might've built a story up in your head about the first look that resembles a plot line from Gilmore Girls. It won't happen like that, and your insistence that it be instantly Instagrammable is knocking a lot of good guys out of the dating pool.

Step 2: Get fit. You don't need to be a size 4, but this generation of young men is serious about stewarding their bodies and they want a woman who cares for hers.

Step 3: Grow your hair out (and don't dye it blue). It may sound superficial to you, but these young men want a girl who is feminine, and long locks are an indicator that you are.

Step 4: Go clean your list. You are probably too selective about who you say yes to because you evaluate a coffee offer with the seriousness of a marriage proposal. So you say "no" when he asks for your number if he's an inch too short or three years too old, or does not yet make six figures, or wants to have a farm someday or doesn't want to have a farm someday. Ditch your list. As long as he does not creep you out, if he has the guts to ask you on a date, say yes.

Step 5: Sign up for any event where you know like-minded guys will be. The local Young Republicans mixer, a hiking group, a lively singles youth night at church. If you're not seeing these guys, it's because you're not situating yourself where these guys are. Change your routine.

Step 6: Get a gym membership and dress modestly. That not only accomplishes step two, but it puts you in regular contact with a lot of guys who are working to better themselves. But don't set a thirst trap. Stand out by wearing workout gear that draws attention to your face, not your cleavage.

Step 7: When the guy who you see every Wednesday and Friday, who has given you pointers on better form for your RDLs, asks for your number, unless you genuinely feel unsafe, give it to him.

Step 8: When he calls you two days later and asks you out for coffee or dinner, say yes. Even if you don't "like" him. This matters for two reasons. 1. You are conditioning him to initiate, and that will benefit you if you date long-term, or benefit other women he asks out in the future because you conditioned him to associate the risk of asking with the reward of a "yes." Hopefully some other girl is building up your future husband's confidence by saying yes when he asks her on a coffee date. 2. You don't actually know who you like. 50% of women marry a guy where there was no initial spark. They did not know they liked him until they saw him for a few weeks or a few months.

Step 9: IMPORTANT - learn to flirt. That doesn't mean licking your lips suggestively or wearing a miniskirt. It means singling him out for attention. A guy is much more likely to ask you on a date if you've signaled that you will say yes. You do that by making eye contact, smiling at him, and responding to any small "bids" for connection.

Step 10: He may not get all the dating etiquette exactly right that first time. He may not show up with flowers or open the door for you. But whatever he does that is commendable, notice it and thank him for it. A woman's greatest power is not bossing and directing, it is responding to and encouraging masculine energy in the right direction through sweetness and precise validation. Don't knock a sincere guy out of the running because he didn't execute a date perfectly. On the first date, the third, the fifth, you are evaluating for worldview alignment and character. Not elaborate planning for your night out.

I watched the Texas - OU game with fellow Texans tonight who rooted for OU because it’s become virtually impossible for most Texas kids to get into their state school. All our tax money is funding education for kids from other states and other countries.

Amazon released this “highlight reel” of the Rocky franchise in honor of the 50th anniversary of the first film.

Inject this directly into my soul.

“Major European cities will be sunk beneath rising seas ... by 2020!" reported The Guardian in 2004.

But wait, 2020 was six years ago!

No cities are underwater.

Um, when someone disagrees with the Bible, I'm gonna have to go with the Bible. Anybody with me on this one?

[Josh Howerton @howertonjosh]

At the risk of getting crushed (again) this week, I’ll hesitantly point out that death penalties in the Bible were performed publicly before “all the assembly” (Leviticus 24:14)

This was because there was not just 1 purpose (justice) for capital punishment; there were 2 purposes…

1) Justice, AND…

2) Public deterrence, so the rest of the people “shall hear and fear, and never again do any such evil” (Deut 13:11)

RIP to a legend

As someone that lost by 20 votes out of 30,000 only to win by 36 after the recount, I can attest to the fact that every vote counts. So much is on the line for the future of America. Don't just vote, vote strategically and with wisdom and get 50 other people to do the same!

Finally! Talarico campaign rolls out proof of life.

Charlie Kirk: "This is my problem with the death penalty, it takes too long, too many appeals. It should be quick, it should be public, it should be televised"

[Rick Green @RickGreenTX]

I second this motion.

[Glenn Beck @glennbeck]

I don't want to make a martyr of the Fort Hood terrorist. @POTUS @SecWar if you really want to deter future Islamist terrorists, use fear and shame in their executions. All-female firing squads with bullets dipped in bacon fat.

[Rick Green @RickGreenTX]

Yep. 100% agree. 1913 was a horrible year for our republic. 16th & 17th Amendments and the FED. Progressives ran the table. We need a year like that for our side... repeal 16th & 17th while passing a 28th Amendment on voting that simply clarifies only citizens can vote and must show ID and only citizens counted in the Enumeration for purposes of Apportionment and redistricting. All of it could be done.

[Nick Freitas @NickJFreitas]

Which amendments if any would you remove from the Constitution if you could…

I'll go first.

I'd repeal the 16th and 17th amendments.

They both significantly undermined federalism and I don't think the modern massive bureaucracy and federal intrusion into every aspect of our lives would be possible without the 16th.

[toddstarnes @toddstarnes]

The Bible teaches that executions were to be public and communal to purge evil from the community and to serve as a deterrent. And there is a whole lot of evil that needs purging in America.

The American Dream of owning a home just got more affordable for Americans.

Onward 🇺🇸

Real men, tough men, patriotic men are the only thing that can interrupt the cycle of soft men leading us back into tough times. Thank God for Secretary of War Pete Hegseth!

[Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh]

🚨 WOW! SecWar Pete Hegseth just announced the firing squad execution of Fort Hood Islamist terrorist Nidal Hasan will be **PUBLIC**

At the SAME time and place where Hasan carried out the attack.

"We'll make sure that people are able to watch it. That it's public. Because people need to understand that there's serious consequences for these types of things!"

"He's gonna get a firing squad of soldiers. As it should be."

@JackPosobiec: Did he make any final requests?

HEGSETH: "Don't care. We'll see him on December 3rd." 🥶

Hasan m*rdered 13 people at Fort Hood in 2009 while yelling "Allahu Akbar" and wounded more than 30 others

He was sentenced to death in 2013 and then sat on death row for over a DECADE. The Acting Sec. of the Army made it official

The victims' families finally get JUSTICE 🙏🏻

Our SecWar is stone COLD when it comes to traitors like this who take American lives.

Gen X, we are not the passed over or forgotten generation. For a long time I thought this way, and clouded my judgment on things. But now I see we have a very important assignment. We are to be the enduring, resetting generation.

We endured watered down, pottery barn churches that built pastoral brands and not the kingdom of God, so we reset by making that old time religion great again.

We endured being latch key kids, so we now reset by being there for our kids.

We endured mass divorce, so we now reset by finishing the race with the wife of our youth.

We endured being the first porn is mainstream generation on video snd computers, so we reset by making it as difficult as possible to obtain it in the future and making monogamy and the nuclear family hot again.

We endured being passed on mountains of debt that can never be repaid well into our prime earning years, so we reset by making sure we leave our kids an inheritance. If possible, we give it to them early when they need our help. And they’re gonna need more help with the down payment on their first house at 25 or 30 than a bunch of money at 50 when we die.

We endured grandparents that posted more Facebook vacation than pics of their grandkids, so we reset by taking some vacations (we worked hard too) in retirement but prioritizing being there for our adult kids and our grandkids. And because we want to be. Grandkids are the ultimate inheritance of a life well lived. Work as hard at being there for them that love us as we did being there for a boss who didn’t.

And if we endure and reset in this way as much as possible, we will have won our millennial children and Gen Z grandchildren the opportunity to truly make America great again.

Got to hand it to Bill Maher. We may not agree on everything but thank God he is calling out the insanity. That takes moral courage & principles. And deserves respect.

So if the women on the boats are getting raped, what does that make the men on the boats?

Talarico used his position in the Texas House to push for tracking COVID-related data.

Soon after, a major multimillion-dollar contract was awarded to the DEI firm he worked for to do exactly what he was pushing.

Talarico didn't just fail to fight corruption. He cashed in.
