@Carlos__Turcios @TheChos39591934 2 Chronicles 14:2-3 - And Asa did that which was good and right in the eyes of the LORD his God: 3 For he took away the altars of the strange gods, and the high places, and brake down the images, and cut down the groves

@MilenaAmit @rob_avis_ramble This is a terrible hypothetical. Most men would happily get hair replacement if they could afford it. The obstacle is money. There are no obstacles to losing weight. Just stop eating so much.

@rob_avis_ramble Let's turn this around. What if the woman in this story has a husband who is balding. She didn't marry a waxed bowling ball, did she? She has provided him with resourses and hair replacement treatments/centers who can help, but bowling ball says "Nah, I'm just gonna be bald."

Avis here with something on my mind I want to share for you other wives out there to think about. Yesterday I was talking with a younger friend of mine who is in her late 30s about fitness and checking in on her. What she said floored me. She said, “I’m just gonna be fat.” She’s in a long-term marriage, a SAHM with two kids, and has been gaining weight since having kids. Now she weighs more than she did even when pregnant. We developed a plan together 6 months ago to help her improve her fitness and lose weight. We looked at all her “roadblocks” and worked through them. Her husband supports her with resources, and she said, “I’m just gonna be fat.” This is unacceptable and inexcusable. Why is this the attitude your husband deserves when he provides you with the resources? How would she feel if he said, “I’m just gonna be broke and homeless”? She is an amazing mom, but she’s lost the plot of marriage. And why? Because changing habits takes effort. It’s not hard, but it requires change and being a little uncomfortable. But I imagine going to bed at night knowing her husband has given her resources and suggestions on ways to improve, yet she just wants to be fat, is also uncomfortable. ~A

@UDouvee @AmiriKing @nldeckard Lol, tard.

@OzarkObstruct @AmiriKing @nldeckard Sir I have been to Elvis's house in tupelo And his house in Holly springs And to graceland I was fully aware of where he was born He's from Tennessee

Kentucky is the most ‘southern state’ in the US. That’s a hill I’ll die on. Moonshine Bluegrass Horses Hillbillies Bourbon Fried chicken Name a state more southern than Kentucky. I’ll wait.

@skohayes @ThemBeforeUs You didn't address the argument. You just cried using a meme.

@ThemBeforeUs I'm sorry, you don't get to define marriage for everyone else.

Everyone has the exact same right to marriage. It's where one unmarried of-age consenting male makes a covenant and contract with one unmarried of-age consenting female. You didn't want to participate in marriage, so you had to use special pleading to redefine it to include your personal preference.

@GmagicBYU @RapidResponse47 @POTUS @60Minutes I submit to you that it's white women.

@RapidResponse47 @POTUS @60Minutes He is 100% right! F the MSM…they all part of the democratic party.

.@POTUS SLAMS @60Minutes: "You should be ashamed of yourself, reading that — because I'm not any of those things."

@UDouvee @AmiriKing @nldeckard No. Now you're digging in after being shown you're wrong.

@OzarkObstruct @AmiriKing @nldeckard Where you live is where you're from

@dogwoodblooms @ideapalooza Cassie, Libs do this thing where they pretend like something they are glad is happening isn't happening. "It's not as bad as you're making it out to be, and you should embrace it."

@ideapalooza To me, as someone who grew up 30 minutes away, Asheville IS the new San Fran.

Folks keep tagging me. They want to know: Is Asheville really that bad? YES. And regardless of what this article says, it’s not a new problem that developed after Helene. I grew up in Canton. When we “went to town,” it was to Asheville. Mamaw and Papaw took me to the flea market in Asheville multiple times a year. We did our clothes shopping at the Asheville JCPenney. When Papaw had to go to the VA, it was in Asheville. Daddy took me to the Belle Chere music festival every year. Back then, Asheville was a hillbilly Mecca. Old men sat on benches outside Hardee’s with their sausage biscuits and coffee to gossip. Bluegrass played on gas station speakers. People clogged on weekends. Folks sounded like they’d never left WNC—the accents were thick. By the time the city ended Belle Chere in 2013, Asheville had become a place I didn’t recognize. Transplants had flooded out the locals, who escaped to Madison and Haywood counties. Local accents? Gone. Bluegrass and clogging? Bastardized by people with zero ties to the traditions. The old men at Hardee’s? Replaced by homeless junkies nodding off and drooling on themselves. It’s so bad that I’ve avoided Asheville for more than a decade. Only one of my children has ever been to the city, and she only went so I could take her to the Biltmore House. Asheville is like an infection—and as much as it pains my heart to admit it, that infection is spreading. The last time I was in Canton, we went out to eat. There wasn’t a single person in the restaurant with a local accent. Women in Lilly Pulitzer and men in dock shoes walked the sidewalks where overalls and work boots once ruled. It won’t be long before the same policies that created this new Asheville turns the rest of WNC into a shell of its former self. 💔

@UDouvee @AmiriKing @nldeckard You moved the goalposts from "Where was he from" to "where did he live the rest of his life".

@OzarkObstruct @AmiriKing @nldeckard I moved no goal post I said he was from Tennessee He was

Carville Drops Hard Truths About the Rigged Math Behind Republican Power Democrats have won 7 of the last 9 presidential popular votes. But Republicans control the Senate because 18% of the country elects 52 senators. This is not democracy. This is a system designed to keep the minority in power and it is working exactly as they intended. Carville pointed out that just 18 percent of the American population elects 52 United States senators, a staggering illustration of how rural, low-population states hold outsized power in the upper chamber regardless of where most Americans actually live and what they actually believe. He paired that with another figure that rarely gets the attention it deserves. In the last nine presidential elections, Democrats have won the popular vote seven times. Seven out of nine. The party that Republicans routinely dismiss as a fringe minority has been the clear preference of the American electorate for the better part of four decades. The Senate math is not an accident and it is not neutral. It is a feature of a system that was designed in an era when small states demanded protection, and it now functions as a structural firewall against majority rule. The result is a chamber where a senator from Wyoming carries roughly 70 times the electoral weight of a senator from California. Carville's point is not just academic. It explains how policies that polling shows most Americans oppose continue to advance, and why the party winning fewer votes keeps accumulating more power.

@OzarkObstruct @AmiriKing @nldeckard And where did he live the rest of his life And don't say holly springs lol

@UDouvee @AmiriKing @nldeckard Nope. He moved to Tennessee as a teenager. He was a Mississippian to the core.

@ArtThePatriot_ That driver is going to get destroyed in a civil suit. His insurance costs will skyrocket. Possibly criminal charges. But I’m sure he will be comforted that a bunch of dumb shits on Twitter are on his side.

@wil_da_beast630 This is an IQ test that most white women will fail.

In the classic ethics-textbook scenario, where everyone in the world has to press either a red button or a blue button and: (1) If 50+% of people pick blue, everybody lives, but... (2) If 50+% of people pick red, only red-pushers live.... Do you pick blue or red?

@UDouvee @AmiriKing @nldeckard Elvis was from Mississippi.

@AmiriKing Kentucky wasn't part of the Confederacy. Kentucky didn't want to be Southern then, so they don't get to claim Southern now.

Fix your roads, you Communist vermin.

@travisakers Please block me you retarded faggot. I don't want your retarded faggotry in my feed ever again.

If you need a list of trash to block, just go through the replies.

@JeffreyLuscombe @travisakers @shashatheitch22 Please block me you retarded faggot.

@travisakers @shashatheitch22 And adults who use it here get an automatic block from me.

Parents, let me be extremely clear… If your child uses “retarded” or “faggot” in my classroom, they are out. And it’s a reflection on you as well. I didn’t mince my words. And if they learned it from you… shame. To the majority of parents who are raising your children to respect others, you’re doing it right, we see that, and appreciate you.

@travisakers You are one very retarded f@&&0t. I'd send my kid to your class with a box of Kleenex.
