You are not defined by your worst decision, biggest mistake or most embarrassing day. You’re more than your health issues, job status or ability to produce for capitalism. We’re all doing our best to survive… and you are worth it just as you are.

Some (like Adam Smith) think capitalism should reward effort and ability but what they describe is a meritocracy. America has always put roadblocks in the way of such advancement and if we want better lives, we must make the benefits of society and the wealth of our nation available to all.

I began advocating for a couch potato lifestyle, and in the exercise community that has made me a "persona au gratin".

Do you remember the conspiracy about the suspicious body count around the Clinton's? There are no coincidences.

Bravo to the team that created and operate the Mitch McConnell puppet. Their talent can almost make you forget that he's been dead for a couple of months.

If you’re grabbed by someone wearing “shock gloves”…your body may convulse involuntarily. It could look like you’re resisting arrest when in reality, you’re in medical distress. The appearance of resistance will embolden ICE to use lethal force. These gloves will kill people.

Disability will happen to almost everyone. Most people are only temporarily abled. It’s not a moral failing. It’s not a choice people make. The human body is frail. It only takes one illness, accident or stroke of bad luck to forever change your health.

Christians should be banned from playing sports. Jesus provides them with additional strength, which gives them unfair advantage.

Data centers should be built adjacent to airports and landfills. Any land with heavy metals or PFAS? Data center. Reactivating a nuclear plan to power a data center? Put the data center right there. Treat data centers as toxic "but necessary" (they are not) and move from there.

I was a military brat, but I also agree with Smedley Butler. This, however, is fucking disgraceful. There is no reason we should be doing this - and if there was an actual mutiny in the modern navy, it would destroy our military.

Why have secure borders? Serial killers, mass shooters, most rapists and child molesters, embezzlers, tax cheats, and drunk drivers in America are born and raised here. If the problem is crime, it is the native people who have suffered under an ethnically European crime wave for generations.
