RIP to my favorite Presidents Day fun fact. John Tyler, our 10th president, had a grandson alive until last May. John had a son while in his 60s. That son had a kid while in his 70s. And that kid, Harrison Tyler, passed away last year at age 96. So… New fun fact: John was born during Washington administration. So 3 generations of Tylers span EVERY PRESIDENCY IN AMERICAN HISTORY.

Pope Leo XIV in a very practical Lenten Message to all Christians says: “I would like to invite you to a very practical and frequently unappreciated form of abstinence: that of refraining from words that offend and hurt our neighbor. Let us begin by disarming our language, avoiding harsh words and rash judgement, refraining from slander and speaking ill of those who are not present and cannot defend themselves. Instead, let us strive to measure our words and cultivate kindness and respect in our families, among our friends, at work, on social media, in political debates, in the media and in Christian communities. In this way, words of hatred will give way to words of hope and peace.” Full text here: press.vatican.va/content/sal…

Well, that was a first. I was just contacted by some guy asking to buy a print of ‘the painting of the boy and his grandpa sitting on a wagon watching a rocket launch’…but tgat he coukdnt find it on my website. I replied that I never painted anything matching that description, and he sent me this obviously AI-generated rip-off of ‘The Unknown Awaits’. (Second image is my original painting). I know this gentleman meant well...he was genuinely looking for a legitimate way to get a print of an image he liked as a gift for his son...but this is going to be an interesting issue from now on.

Ok. I was really caught off guard here. I did not expect my visceral reaction to this message from James Vanderbeek. Do yourself a favor and listen. Just listen. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 RIP James, God speed🙏🏼

I was once doing a crossword and the clue was "Wood from Lord of the Rings." Six letters. "Mallorn" didn't fit. Neither did "Fangorn," nor "Mirkwood." "Willow" didn't match the nearby other words. I tried every Ent's name. I was so frustrated. The actual answer? "Elijah."
going to LOTR trivia at a bar tonight and I just know I’m going to get tripped on a dumb basic question because my head is stuck in The Silmarillion lore lol

I love Dom, but he's not this season's or last's top scorer. We sold Brennan, last season's top scorer, because Frank seemingly didn't know how to use him. Richarlson is this season's top, and he's out injured. All that to say, I hope Dom starts banging them in...
🎙️| Thomas Frank on Solanke: “Dom is huge for us and he's been out for six months. To have your main striker and top scorer out, I'd like to see other teams deal with that. He's a physical beast and he's been pushing himself.”

These people think we have the memories of goldfish. I remember MAGA losing its mind with anger when people said protests like this were incredibly dangerous. "Second Amendment!" they said. Yet these folks protested with their hands on (apparently) loaded rifles. That's far more dangerous! Alex Pretti never put his hand on his gun, and was disarmed before he was shot. We know MAGA is about free speech for me and not for thee. Now it's gun rights for me and not for thee.

I impeached Biden’s Secretary of Homeland Security, Alejandro Mayorkas, those were my articles of impeachment that passed in the House of Representatives. I unapologetically believe in border security and deporting criminal illegal aliens and I support law enforcement. However, I also unapologetically support the 2nd amendment. Legally carrying a firearm is not the same as brandishing a firearm. I support American’s 1st and 4th amendment rights. There is nothing wrong with legally peacefully protesting and videoing. MAGA, consider it like this. We lost our minds when we watched Biden’s FBI track down and aggressively carry out home invasions and arrest on peaceful J6’ers who walked in the Capitol through open doors. Imaging if one of our MAGA independent journalists or even just a MAGA supporter stood in the street outside a J6’ers house while Biden’s FBI carried out a law enforcement operation, home invasion, and arrest. Then Biden’s FBI goes to the MAGA guy videoing it all and shoves a woman with him to the ground and sprays them with bear spray then throws the MAGA guy to the ground as MAGA guy was trying to help the woman off the ground. Then Biden’s FBI beats MAGA guy on the ground, disarms MAGA guy, and then shoots him dead. What would have been our reaction? Both sides need to take off their political blinders. You are all being incited into civil war, yet none of it solves any of the real problems that we all face, and tragically people are dying.

If standing between someone who just got shoved down and the other, trying to help them up, getting peppered sprayed, with hands up, seemingly telling the police you are legally carrying (I thought this is protected), is commiting suicide by cop, then we're in trouble
If we lose heart every time a feral Communist commits suicide by cop, our country isn’t gonna make it.

My argument for the "seemingly telling the cops about carrying" is that are some of the reports I've seen on top of that is what you are taught to do. It would also make sense WATCHING the video he is quickly disarmed BEFORE he is shot.

I can’t believe this is a thing and it has to even be addressed! White racist pastor calls 95% of black churches heretical 🤦🏿‍♂️😡 “And now I make one more appeal, my dear brothers and sisters. Watch out for people who cause divisions and upset people’s faith by teaching things contrary to what you have been taught. Stay away from them. Such people are not serving Christ our Lord; they are serving their own personal interests. By smooth talk and glowing words they deceive innocent people.” Romans 16:17-18 #rebrandingthechurch #pastor #racism #christian #God

Back when I used to feel something watching Spurs
Four years ago today, Steven Bergwijn did this • 79 mins: Substituted on • 90+5 mins: Equalises • 90+7 mins: Scores winner His stoppage-time double in Spurs' incredible comeback against Leicester will never be forgotten

I have never seen a contested catch like this ever be called anything but a catch. Even as a DB you know that if it’s even a Tie it will go to the WR. Can’t believe this decided the game.
This in an NFL playoff game got ruled an interception and ended Buffalo’s season?!!?? This is a catch every time

Becoming very very clear the PL referees are instructed to keep up the narratives Don’t send off Dalot because it might ruin the derby! Also explains why we get so many ridiculous decisions against us, to keep up the ‘Spursy’ narrative
