@EmmanuelAcho You’re doing the exact same thing. Black face is just as funny. Get your feelings off your sleeve. It’s a joke on both sides.

If you’re offended by Druski, block him. It’s simple. He makes fun of everyone. Also, please do some historical research before comparing what Druski did to doing “Black Face.”

@philthatremains @BladeoftheS I have thought of once you reach a certain $ amount of wealth you stop the business & forced to sale it. Go enjoy life. That creates the next in line mentality pick up a profitable business. Why does one person need to keep going and be a billionaire? Generational wealth is $100m

We don't need a Wealth Tax, we need a 100% tax on all wealth above a certain amount. Lets say $100m, that's more than enough. We need to outlaw outrageous wealth, not just try reduce it a bit. Billionaires are a danger to everything and everyone. As you can clearly see.

Powerful and personal reflections from Francis Schaeffer on prayer, suffering, and the sovereignty of God during his battle with cancer in 1981: "God is not a dispensing machine. God is a personal God, and I must allow Him to answer my prayers in the light of His wisdom instead of my limitedness." Franky Schaeffer: "And that's not a cop-out?" Schaeffer: "Not at all. It's rooted in the heart of all things and that is, He's infinite; I'm finite. I'll tell you something, nothing could terrify me more, and I'm being very serious, nothing could terrify me more than that I could ask for anything today and get it, because I don't know enough." Franky: "Including, for your own health?" Schaeffer: "Oh, absolutely. Just as much as for anything." Franky: "Are you willing to say that as a person who, ok, let's face it, has cancer that's serious enough so it could be killing you?" Schaeffer: "Yeah, of course... If I could wave a wand or push a button and get rid of it, in one sense, of course I'd do it. Who wants cancer? Let's not kid ourselves. It's no pleasure to live with this thing on top my head all the time... But on the other hand, more profoundly, I think I can honestly say sitting here that I would rather trust God's wisdom than mine."

@JayMac_Slacking Sometimes you just catch a bad break in life, literally. I’m an electrician I’ve seen a coworker fall from a lift and sustain a similar injury. Still works to this day in pain. You volunteered for the military, I’m assuming, so just keep on chugging.

I injured myself while in the AF. Was doing a job on an F16 and due to faulty equipment, fell over the side, onto the sill of the cockpit while holding up a 220 lb ejection seat. I had to get a sacroiliac fusion at 25. After a year and a half of failed physical therapy and being undeployable, they finally put me up for medical dishcarge. During ny evaluation, they did the standard range of motion tests. When attempting to bend over, I stopped because it hurt. The Dr asks if that was as far as I could go, to which I replied "I can probably go further but it will hurt". He asks me to show him, I did and that was that. I was discharged at 20% disability, even though I was now permamnetly disabled. The process is incredibly simple and vacuous, it rewards those that will lie and punishes those that are honest. I've since had 2 more spinal surgeries and shoulder surgey before I've even turned 40. I have hearing loss, herniated discs (cervical and lumbar) and arthiritis. Point is, the system is broken and needs attention.

Military Disability fraud is rampant, but for some reason is ignored, allowed… and even encouraged. This kind of obvious cheating ruins the system for those who actually need it: heroes who served our country honorably and were injured in the process.

During an interview in 1974, Corrie ten Boom shared how she once encouraged fellow believers in Africa with one of her father's memorable lessons on why Christians need not fear being strong enough to endure suffering: "I once said to my father (I was still a little girl), 'Daddy, I will never be strong enough to suffer for Jesus.' And Father said, 'When you go to travel with a train to Amsterdam, when do I give you the train ticket? Three weeks before?' I said, 'No, Daddy, the day that I go to travel.' And Father said, 'That's what God does. Today, you do not need to have strength to suffer for Jesus, but the moment you will have the honor to suffer for Him, He will give you all the strength.' And then I was confident. And I said to these people, 'When you have to suffer for Jesus, the Lord will give you the train ticket.'"

@DoNotComply23 But that’s no different than being an apprentice for a trade. It’s all dangerous. Training don’t mean crap compared to war.

Yes, some veterans commit fraud on the system, it’s not perfect. But to say you MUST serve in combat to get the compensation disregards the injuries we sustained in training, which is extremely common! Soldiers even DIE in training. Thats how hard and dangerous it can be.

Military Disability fraud is rampant. You can claim erectile dysfunction and get a check, as it’s a recognized disability. I’m sorry, but unless you served in combat, you shouldn’t get disability.

If you haven’t served in the military, your opinion on VA disability doesn’t matter. There’s much worse fraud being committed right in front of you on a daily basis.

@zacharyebell @Fat_Electrician @sircalebhammer Pretty simple if you weren’t drafted against your will to fight in a war,you should NOT draw lifetime free money. You volunteered that is just a potential issue that comes with it. Could stand some more toughen up mentality. Shit hurts the older you get, deal with it. Cowboy up!

Can someone connect me and the @Fat_Electrician to @sircalebhammer? We need to actually talk this out and have a legitimate conversation about what VA disability is and the reality of it.

It’s a shame Better Man didn’t connect with audiences. The choice to portray Robbie Williams as a chimp confused many viewers and hurt the film’s promotion, even though it’s essential to the story it tells. One of the last great movie musicals.

What if everyone is actually destined for hell? When Christian Apologist Wesley Huff joined me on The Diary Of A CEO, he explained a central idea in Christianity that many people misunderstand. According to scripture, the standard for being “good” isn’t simply being better than other people. The standard is God himself. Which means, by definition, no human being meets it. That’s what Christianity calls the bad news. Humanity can’t save itself through good actions or intentions. Here's him breaking it down

Bam GOES OFF on the "unethical" comments about his 83: "You're blaming me. You should be blaming the head coach. I was not the one who let me go one on one the whole game until I had 70 then you sent the double. At that point, I had 70 with 9 mins to go. You think I'm not going for it?" "That's the thing that's crazy when they talk about unethical part of the basketball. If I have 70 w 9 mins to go, who would be like, coach just take me out? Yeah, right!" "You can't be mad at that. If you are mad, I don't care. A lot of people, they're upset. If they did play, they never got the chance to get that close to chasing greatness. If you get that close, that's the point of chasing it -- so you can surpass it."
