@SteveTeel17 You a big Tennessee Volunteers fan?

This is the worst possible answer. Tony is way in over his head. It’s game 2/162. They faced Freid and Schlittler. The response should be a chuckle and say “yeah we may not score a run this season”. This is going to be a bad experiment. The writing is on the wall.

@NuMidnight @Sinnux_ Well, they'd need to go all-in ... probably a much better chance with Destiny 3

@IamTheNewMeta @Sinnux_ To make one thing clear I still play this game and have a fairly good time on it, especially scrimming with my friends, and I'm absolutely not a Bungie/destiny hate sheep

Return to D2 might be incoming

@GiantHotTakes yep, seasons over

Giants Padres next week may be elimination games!

@jessica_lovee95 I chose peace ...

I sometimes wonder if men who stay single for years still feel happy inside, or if they secretly miss romantic moments but just choose peace over complications.

@NBCSWarriors they need to keep losing

Can the Dubs jump the Clippers and/or Blazers in the play-in standings? 🧐

@brookeleblanc photoshoot time

Have a great weekend.

@PavlovicNBCS they should all go out and get hammered tonight

The Giants lost 3-0. Their four hits through the first two games are the fewest in franchise history. This is the first time they've been shut out in the first two games of a season.

@ByMMonreal shit happens

On paper, this #SFGiants lineup should be extremely balanced and above average. So far today, they’ve struck out 8 times with just 1 hit in the first six innings.

@NewswirePatriot Daniel Craig ftw

Actor Daniel Craig is being called a poor parent online for saying, "If your kid is bullying my kid, my kid has been instructed to punch your kid in the face." Critics say it teaches violence to children. Is his parenting style "violent," or a good lesson in self defense?

My generation grew up listening to the game on the radio in the 70’s and 80’s. We rode our bikes, raided construction sites for lumber, hit up 7-eleven, built forts, and listened to the game … all summer long. We weren’t thinkers per se, it was just what most adolescent boys did. Things are different now. Attention spans aren’t what they were.

Hot take: baseball is only boring to people who don’t understand the game and refuse to take the time to. Baseball is a sport for people who like thinking about sports.

@GirlsChase we never thought about it this much back in the day ..

This is actually a pretty good description of (some) things that will get girls chasing you. (While you generally don’t want to listen to female dating advice for men, a woman simply DESCRIBING what men have done with her that worked can be very informative.) In this case, the guy was using: ✅ Confident, self-possessed body language. She doesn’t say it, but I guarantee you he had great posture, moved slowly and deliberately but smoothly, and took up space. Doubtless had excellent eye contact. ✅ At some point (ONCE he had her INVESTED enough) he asked her if she thought he was ‘hot’. This was deep in the second date, probably after some good bonding or connection so she doesn’t want to burst the bubble by saying something other than ‘yes’. What this did was trigger a psychological concept called COMMITMENT-CONSISTENCY where, once someone has verbally agreed to something, that person then feels compelled to act in-line with it, and even reorients his or her views to match what was said. (You can read about this in Robert Cialdini’s book “Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion”, where he has a ton more studies + examples.) ✅ Once he had her out the third time, he could tell she wasn’t into him enough yet, but was invested enough to have come out multiple times, so he just hung back and gave her space to chase. What happens when she chases? Well, that is simple enough: she starts to like you more (then more!). (Also, you might think his dogged follow up of her was ‘chasing’, especially if you are the type who only texts a girl once or twice then quits if she isn’t all about it… however: there is a right way and a wrong way to follow up doggedly. The fact that this guy got another date and she started chasing him tells you he did it the right way. The right way is ‘persistence’, rather than ‘pursuit’.) A lot of guys now don’t use (or know) game at all… they’re just totally winging it on “does she instantly feel me or not?” You may not believe it until you try it for yourself, but yeah, there is a reason men have been doing this stuff with women since Ovid’s time and before… probably since long before recorded history. If you want her to CHASE, you need to get her invested enough to be willing to — then, after that, you must create the SPACE for her to chase you in!

@Elex_Michaelson @CNNTheStoryIs he’s right

NEWS: Bob Costas supports the IOC's decision to ban trans athletes from women's sports at the Olympics. "Common sense is not transphobic...this policy is common sense." The host of 12 Olympic games told @CNNTheStoryIs that trans people should be treated with "dignity and respect," but there's a "reason why there are men's and women's sports." "There is a reason why no trans man who was once a woman and has become a man has ever competed successfully with men in the Olympics." Full interview: youtube.com/watch?v=v6kUgo…

@marklevinshow Isn't it time you retired and just shut the fuck up forever

You cannot remove all of the highly enriched uranium, nuclear grade, in Iran without going into the tunnels and facilities deep underground to get it.  I don't know what the administration's plan is, but I am guessing this is at least one reason why there are public reports that some of the special forces are being called up and deployed.  For Nancy Mace to say no ground troops or I won't support the war effort is, to me, utterly irresponsible.  The administration is not talking about amassing troops for some big ground campaign, according to public reports.  Mace is now running for governor of South Carolina.  I have never been a fan for several reasons.  I trust the president to make prudential decisions in the military campaign, as he already has.  His use of the military in Iran and Venezuela has been brilliant and precise.

This week, I enjoyed meeting with pastors from across South Carolina. I’m also grateful that we were able to spend some time in prayer. May God bless them and their congregations.
