@upstreamlax Like he has cement feet….

Payton Anderson wasting space today

@everythinglaxx 💯 stupid mistakes all over the field…no discipline.

Nothing changes if nothing changes.

@mpalmarDO @DOsports Between him and Mullen, they’re keeping ‘Cuse’s slim chance alive…waiting for Spallina to do something…

Finn Thomson just scored again. Syracuse has five goals, and four of them belong to the Ontario native. He's red hot right now, but SU needs more supplementary offense to complement him.

@thecreasedive ‘Cuse needs to move the damn ball and take some quality shots…

Halftime thoughts. Cuse has to move the ball (crazy to think about) and make the goalie move pipe to pipe. ND gotta find an answer at the X and stop with the penalties (crazy to think). For it being 7-4 still think Cuse is in this with Mullen at the X.

@College_Crosse Duke had zero ball movement, all there shots were off a dodge, too easy for the goalie to track.

Don’t think much was unsurprising about the semifinal 1. When Croddick and McMeekin perform to their level, Princeton is the best team Question was always whether Duke could plug the big run when it started to hang around at 10/11 goals….they couldn’t do it. All she wrote

@thecreasedive Zero ball movement from Duke, making it easy for the Princeton goalie.

Duke refuses to shoot bounce shots

@sukh_saroy @grok summarize this with key points

A team of researchers in New Zealand followed 1,037 babies from the day they were born for the next 45 years to find out what actually determines a successful adult life, and the strongest predictor they found had almost nothing to do with intelligence or family wealth. The findings have been published in the most prestigious scientific journals in the world. Almost no parent has heard of them. His name is Avshalom Caspi. Her name is Terrie Moffitt. They are a husband and wife research team based at Duke University and King's College London, and the study they have spent their careers running is called the Dunedin Multidisciplinary Health and Development Study. It started in 1972 in a single hospital in Dunedin, New Zealand. Every baby born there in a 12-month window was enrolled. 1,037 of them. The study is still running today. The retention rate is the part that should astonish anyone familiar with how research usually works. After more than 45 years, over 90 percent of the original participants are still being tracked. Most longitudinal studies lose half their sample inside ten years. The Dunedin team has lost almost nobody. They measured everything. Blood. DNA. Brain scans. Income. Criminal records. Romantic relationships. Drug use. Dental health. Sleep. Mental health. Lung function. They flew participants who had moved abroad back to Dunedin every few years for a full day of assessments. Some of those people now live in seven different countries. They still show up. For the first decade of life, the team did something nobody else was doing systematically. They measured each child's self-control. Not IQ. Not family income. Not parenting style. Self-control. They watched 3-year-olds in a research lab and rated their ability to wait, regulate frustration, follow instructions, and resist impulsive reactions. They added teacher ratings. They added parent ratings. They added the children's own self-reports as they grew older. They combined all of it into a single highly reliable score. Then they did the thing nobody else had the patience to do. They waited. When the data came in at age 32, the result was so consistent it should be illegal to teach a child without it. The children who scored lowest on self-control at age 3 grew into adults with worse physical health, more substance dependence, lower incomes, more credit card debt, higher rates of single parenthood, more criminal convictions, and worse mental health than the children who scored highest. The pattern was not subtle. It was a clean gradient. Every step up in childhood self-control produced a measurable step up in adult outcomes across every domain the team could measure. The detail that should disturb every parent reading this is what happened when the researchers controlled for the obvious objections. When they controlled for IQ, the effect held. When they controlled for family income and social class, the effect held. When they compared siblings inside the same family, the sibling with lower self-control still had worse adult outcomes than the sibling with higher self-control. Same parents. Same house. Same dinner table. The trait was running independently of everything researchers expected to explain it. The paper landed in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences in 2011. The title was as plain as it gets. "A gradient of childhood self-control predicts health, wealth, and public safety." It has been cited thousands of times since. Almost no policy maker has acted on it. The reason most people resist this finding is that it sounds like a sentence handed down before the child could speak. If the trait that determines your adult life is locked in by age 3, the rest of your life is a formality. The Dunedin researchers say that is the wrong way to read the data. They found something else in the same paper that almost nobody quotes. Some of the children whose self-control scores improved between childhood and adolescence ended up with adult outcomes far better than their early scores predicted. The trait is not destiny. It is a muscle. Children who learned to wait, regulate, and resist between ages 5 and 15 caught up with kids who started ahead. Self-control is the one childhood trait nobody seems to teach on purpose anymore. Schools focus on test scores. Parents focus on activities. Coaches focus on performance. The part of the brain that decides between five seconds from now and five years from now is left to develop on its own, and the data shows it usually does not. The most uncomfortable part of the research is the cost calculation Moffitt and Caspi ran. They estimated that if a country could move the bottom 20 percent of children up one rung on the self-control ladder, it would measurably reduce healthcare spending, welfare dependency, and incarceration costs at the national level. The intervention is cheaper than almost any other public health investment available. Almost no country has tried it at scale. The reason adults struggle with money, weight, addiction, and relationships is rarely intelligence. It is the gap between what you want right now and what you want in ten years, and which side of that gap your nervous system is built to listen to. Most people lost that fight at age 4 and never went back to learn the technique. You were not behind because life dealt you a bad hand. You were behind because the part of you that decides between right now and the rest of your life was never taught how to choose. The good news is the muscle is still there. Almost nobody trains it after age 10. You can be the one who does.

@mpalmarDO @DOsports So underrated, one of my favorite players to watch…why the hell wasn’t he drafted in the PLL???

@DOsports Check out the full story here: dailyorange.com/2026/05/syracu…

Guess who Syracuse's leading scorer is. It's not Joey Spallina. "Every time there’s awards to be handed out, they seem to forget about Finn Thomson." Wrote about Thomson, his 41 goals, and how this Final Four is his last chance to realize his potential for @DOsports.

@sam_croston @danarestia If ‘Cuse commits the same mental errors, turnovers and stupid penalties they did against NC, ND will capitalize and that could be the difference.

I spoke with @danarestia on why Notre Dame will be a tough opponent for SU to beat. "Notre Dame will do all the fundamental things, and they'll do them all perfectly well. You will have to play a clean, intelligent, and efficient game to beat them."

@WhitakerTA_ How about we get rid of @johnthune now over his failure to pass the SAFE act?!? @realDonaldTrump what’s stopping you from squeezing this swamp creature?

🚨 Do you understand what quietly happened in Kentucky tonight.. Mitch McConnell spent 41 years building the most powerful Republican machine in the Senate.. he blocked nominees.. killed legislation.. outlasted six presidents.. and bent the entire GOP caucus to his will for four decades.. and the moment he stepped back.. Trump walked in on May 1st.. endorsed Andy Barr.. offered the only real rival an ambassadorship.. and the rival dropped out the same week.. > Cameron — the man who was supposed to carry McConnell's network forward — entered with a polling lead.. raised money.. had the name recognition.. had the Christian conservative base.. > Barr had none of that early.. until Trump made one phone call and one diplomatic offer.. > Cameron finished at 30%.. Barr won with 60%.. > the seat McConnell held since 1984 flipped to a Trump loyalist in a single primary night.. > the first open Kentucky Senate seat in 42 years.. decided by an endorsement and an ambassadorship.. every single establishment figure watching this tonight told their donors "the McConnell network is durable".. every single one assumed the old machine had enough infrastructure to survive his retirement.. it didn't survive a single election cycle.. not a scandal.. not a Democrat.. not a generational shift.. one endorsement.. one ambassadorship offer.. and 41 years of political infrastructure collapsed in an evening.. the quiet part nobody is saying out loud.. Trump didn't just win a primary tonight.. he erased the last internal friction point inside the Senate Republican caucus without a single floor vote.. it's only getting quieter from here.. I'll keep you updated. Turn on notifications. 🚨

@BrentAxeMedia @grok give me the summary of this article

🍊🥍 committed a season-high 19 turnovers against UNC in the NCAA quarterfinals. If you're going to do something that wrong, you must have been doing a lot more right to win. Here are 5 things SU aced the test on to clinch a second consecutive ticket to Championship Weekend ⬇️

@BarstoolGruden @CuseMLAX Just please stop throwing the ball away😩!

Congratulations!!! @CuseMLAX 🍊🍊🍊

@BrianKnowsLax 💯

The Archers offense needs help. More d mids are on the way.

@Schwalm5132 @L4Logic If he was watching the event on his phone he could’ve easily known when the POTUS was there, no big mystery.

So let's unpack a few things right up front... 1) He left California and was in DC at the hotel where the WHCD was veing held. 2) Imagine the intent he had to have in order to travel that distance all the while thinking about what he was going to do. 3) He either moved several weapons or procured them in/around DC and figured out a way to get them in proximity to the WHCD. 4) He took the time to load the weapons on to his body (to reportedly include several knives) and nobody noticed. 5) Now here is the kicker...in his hidden location he was somehow aware that the President was in the room and was seated. How/when was he aware of that part? 6) If he wasn't a guest at the WHCD and he couldn't see the President from where he was....how did he know? 7) It's not like he could go look in the room and then go load up with his gear. 8) He was supposedly a guest at the exact hotel? Like every room in that place wasn't booked full over a month in advance? In DC, on a Saturday, with the WHCD in the same hotel....have you ever booked a hotel in DC during a Major Presidential event? Good luck!!! All of it screams that he had help from someone in DC. Someone with some serious knowledge and capabilities. You just don't pull off something like that on a whim and without some serious reconnaissance ahead of time.

@Jim_Jordan And yet you still won’t impeach rogue judges….

ActBlue is the money machine behind the Democrats. And it's riddled with fraud.

@Victoria00025 Hell Yea!

Raise your hand ✋️If you want Senate Republicans to replace John Thune as Majority leader. He's not suited for this!!

@Jim_Jordan House Judiciary committee impeaching rogue judges = fraud

SPLC = fraud ActBlue = fraud California Medicare = fraud Minnesota daycares = fraud FireAid = fraud What's next?

@mrosazza @AwakenedOutlaw @grok how far fetched is this post? Is the poster a real Trump supporter or a bot planting false hope?

Virginia was a trap, and the Democrats fell right into it. Dems rushed the April 21 special election to exploit the narrow pre-EO window before Trump’s March 31 citizenship-verification/USPS-tracking order fully hardened the mail stream. A small data-science team (with pre-existing voter rolls + ERIC padding + AI) generated and externally inserted subtle synthetic “ghost” ballots into the USPS flow, targeting high-mail NoVA counties like Fairfax. The late blue shift delivered the narrow YES (~51.45%, ~89k margin, just over recount bar), including the viral “exact 35k” Fairfax absentee batch. Trump’s team (data scientists who already modeled the exact cheating vectors from the rolls) had people monitoring Fairfax/USPS in real time. They let the fake ballots get counted — preserving the chain of custody and the official tally. Once certified, the trap springs: subpoena the physical ballots and USPS records via FISA court on national-security grounds (foreign interference / election integrity as a critical infrastructure threat). The trackable envelopes + EO-mandated lists create the forensic hook. This proves systemic ghost-ballot injection at scale — not isolated fraud, but a repeatable, AI-enabled operation blending into the blue-shift pattern. With ironclad proof in hand, it forces passage of the SAVE Act (proof-of-citizenship for registration/ballots) through Congress, hardens the entire system nationwide, and delivers the historic backfire: Dems’ rushed map grab becomes the catalyst that exposes and kills the playbook permanently. Trump’s loud April 20 framing + post-results quiet was operational security while the monitoring and legal machinery ran. The Virginia Supreme Court process challenge (April 27 arguments) is the visible lever; the USPS/FISA subpoena is the silent kill shot. Its time to take our State back Colorado! #copolitics #freetinapeters

@mrosazza @AwakenedOutlaw Would love to believe you, but nothing has been done to expose the fraud and sadly I doubt anything will be done….

@SamaHoole @grok break this down

Every man lives two lives. The second begins when he realises that he can max out hypertrophy in 15 second sets. The only reps that build muscle are the last 4 to 5 before failure. That's where the bar slows involuntarily, where high-threshold motor units are finally recruited, where actin and myosin form the maximum cross-bridges at the same time. That's mechanical tension. That's the only thing the muscle reads. Everything else is filler. The tempo doesn't matter. The muscle is 30 to 50% stronger on the eccentric, so lowering the weight slowly doesn't add stimulus, it just forces a lighter concentric. The pump doesn't matter. Lactate infusions don't grow muscle. Blood flow restriction on resting muscle doesn't grow muscle. The pump is a feeling, not a signal. The mind-muscle connection doesn't matter. Your brain cannot preferentially recruit fibres. It can only tell the muscle to contract. Everything past that is pretence. Pick a weight heavy enough that the fourth or fifth rep slows down on its own. Drive it up. Stop one short. Rack it. That set took 15 seconds. It did everything the 3 sets of 12 promised you and failed to deliver. Go home.
