Our pastor was an Army Ranger & today he shared a story about Navy SEALS. How the 2 predictors of making it through SEAL training were:
1) If your dad was a seal
2) If you had a good relationship with your mom
I believe the latter is due to the nervous system regulation a solid relationship gives children which directly translates to resiliency through chaos.
@chrisman pointed out the best gift parents can give their kids is a regulated nervous system
So thank your mother if she gave this to you & help your wife give it to your kids

California Rep Kevin Kiley says they have learned the $100 million dollar pacific palisades Fire Aid concert money was laundered to nonprofits
“What we have learned is absolutely beyond belief — Tens of thousands of people donated raising a hundred million dollars for what they was were told was direct relief for the victims. But now we've learned that this money didn't go to the victims at all. Instead, it went to nonprofits”
Here are some examples
- CA Native Vote Project: $100,000 for voter participation for Native Americans
- Community Organized Relief Effort (CORE): $250,000 for programs prioritizing undocumented immigrants
- Altadena Talks Foundation: $100,000 went to supported podcasts, including Toni Raines podcast
- NAACP Pasadena: $100,000 political advocacy
- Los Angeles Black Worker Center $550,000 to political advocacy organizations
- Center for Applied Ecological Remediation: $500,000 for fungus/microbe/plant soil remediation projects
Over $500,000 went to bonuses for nonprofit leaders and consultants

Today, a 2nd-year med student asked me why we can't completely clear HIV from the body like other viruses and the answer is the closest thing to a horror movie in modern medicine

Every generation of doctors was confident.
Every generation was wrong about something they were certain of.
The question isn't whether to trust doctors.
The question is which part of the current list turns out to be the thalidomide.
What the Geno Auriemma-Dawn Staley confrontation was really about.
My column on the wild scene at the Final Four and Geno's escalation of the fiercest rival in women's college basketball:
https://t.co/Q5UQepXmJ3
Dawn Staley is getting a taste of why Pat Summitt canceled the regular-season series with UConn in 2007, after dealing with Geno’s slimy antics for 12 years.
Overprotected kids become unprepared adults.
Dawn Staley nailed it.🔥
You can’t shelter your child from every hard moment and then expect them to handle adversity when it counts.
Hard is the lesson.

True.
Most 20-year-olds are actually starting life behind the starting line. They accumulate student loan debt, graduate with a useless degree, and can’t get a job paying above $60,000
Meanwhile, fraudsters defraud the government, making millions
Stopping fraud will benefit my generation more than any other as our dollar gets devalued and we have less money to put in the markets to hedge against inflation
The idea that a foreigner can start a “business” that collects welfare dollars from taxpayers while 20-year-old college graduates can’t get a good paying job is unbelievable
End the fraud.
MURRAY: Is it true that people making under $184k pay a 12.4% Social Security tax rate?
DAHL: Yes.
MURRAY: And the rate for someone making $1 million?
DAHL: 2.2%.
MURRAY: So, a 12.4% tax for people making less than $184k, but 2.2% for a millionaire or .0002% for billionaires.
Kids today will never know the joy of a nine team ACC where players stayed all four years and you knew the starting five for pretty much every team in the conference.
We had it all ladies & gentlemen.
It was common practice in the 1970’s, 80’s and even the early 90’s to wash your windshield when you stopped for gas every week. Bugs galore covered the windshield and front grill on your vehicle.
That’s not the case anymore. It’s like the bugs have simply disappeared. No bees, no gnats, no flys or moths.
Our skies are being poisoned and killing off the insects.
When was the last time you saw snail trails going across the concrete walkway after a heavy rain? When was the last time you saw earthworms wiggling across your driveway after a nice rainstorm?
Our skies are being poisoned and contaminating the earths soil and killing them.
Eczema and psoriasis are also becoming the norm.
