The most destructive piece of internet lore ever created is the phrase: "If they wanted to, they would."
It sounds empowering, but it is actually deeply narcissistic. It assumes that a person’s actions are dictated 100% by their desire for you, while completely ignoring their capacity.
A partner can desperately want to give you the world, but if they are fighting a silent financial war, battling burnout, or dealing with a health crisis, their capacity is at zero. Measuring a stressed partner's love strictly by their ability to "perform" is a lethal mistake. "If they wanted to, they would" is the fastest way to lose a fiercely loyal partner over a temporary lack of bandwidth.
why is it normal that the president whine about random citizens being losers. how does this not just embarrass everyone. completely child-like behavior
Indiana won the National Championship.
Darnold won the Super Bowl.
Apply for that job.
Hit up your crush.
Start the dream business.
2026 is the year to just go for it all.
Americans appear to be the most beaten down people in the world. Half their elites are pedos and nothing is happening. In Europe they're at least forcing them to resign.
US? Crickets. They're run by Pedos and they're doing nothing.
Everytime I’m at the CVS pharmacy drive thru, I sit behind cars for at least 10-15 minutes… yet when I’m at the window I’m gone in less than 2 minutes every single time. Can someone legitimately explain to me why this is? What could possibly take so long?
MORE than three million pages from the Epstein files are now public.
Cannibalism. Rape. Murder. Pedophilia.

Notre Dame gets left out of the CFP…
The Irish won 10 straight, were ranked ahead of Miami for weeks, and their only losses were Week 1 to No. 10 Miami and Week 2 to No. 7 Texas A&M by a combined four points.
Ridiculous decision. One of the best teams in the country.
Last thing one CFB playoff. Miami had to be in over ND. But Notre Dame should’ve been in to and I would’ve put Notre Dame in over Bama. The system is stupid and incredibly flawed. Hopefully it gets changed
After 9/11, NATO's Article 5 was invoked for the first (and only) time ever by the United States.
Troops from the UK, Canada, Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands, Denmark, Australia, Spain, Poland, Norway, Romania, Turkey, New Zealand, Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia, Ukraine, Finland, and many others joined the fight in Afghanistan.
More than one thousand of these soldiers paid the ultimate price.
JD Vance - Have you said 'thank you' once for their sacrifice?
A guy who makes $8 million a day off the government thinks seniors getting $65 a day they worked their whole lives to earn is a “ponzi scheme.”
Protect Social Security. Fire Elon Musk.

@DrewsOn_X No, Norway, unlike Trump, knows that Putin has broken his word almost every time he's signed an agreement with Ukraine. If you honestly think Putin's word holds an ounce of weight, then you have either been living under a rock for the past 2 decades, or you are brainwashed.
@MikeIsMeForSure @PPCKirk@Acyn Just stop it. You sound insane. Russia invaded Ukraine. What part do you not understand? Why has Trump NEVER said, Get the fuck out of Ukraine to Putin? Because he is a weak coward. He calls on an invaded country to surrender rather than being a real man. GTFOOH.
