I'm not who you think, and totally who you expect.

@Grummz Also, she's the same ethnicity as the head MS exec. Just a data point.

Until game companies start putting gamers back in charge of gaming, it will never be fixed. Microsoft’s new CEO of Xbox has no game experience, ran AI, at MS, was COO of Instacart, and head of messaging at Meta. The problem is games require a game product focused CEO. This is Xbox’s John Scully moment, who was a Pepsi exec brought in to run Apple and who ousted Jobs. How’d that work out? Apple nearly died, and they had to beg Jobs to come back.

@shan_hefley2 @TractorTrades @MikeWingerii Paul didn't get the blessing of his family. He was called by God to preach and evangelize. Also, his sins were before his salvation which is another critical point. It does not compare to a Christian leader sinning and then returning to sin in the same way.

@LikeShrew @TractorTrades @MikeWingerii So after the apostle Paul had murdered Christians, he should’ve disqualified himself when Jesus called him? Do we qualify ourselves or does God qualify us?

This visual is important for the sake of justice. It’s good that we see this man in handcuffs. I don’t understand why the sentence is only six months, but it’s good that he plead guilty, finally, and that he is being escorted out in handcuffs.

@shan_hefley2 @MikeWingerii Had this man repented beforehand he'd have confessed, removed himself from ministry, and sought restitution. The fact he didn't do this means he is NOT a different man. He's still trying to hide his sin. He is disqualified from eldership, and should be spat upon in the streets.

@MikeWingerii Mike, as a nine year member of Gateway Church, who sat under this man’s teaching, maybe the reason the sentence is only six months is because this crime happened 40 years ago. The man who’s going to jail is not the same man who did the crime. God is more merciful than we are.

Imagine we mandated everyone have car insurance that covers new tires, oil changes, and wiper fluid. People would use more of those services. Sure, some people driving on dangerously bald tires would finally get new ones. You might even prevent the occasional crash. But you’d also get people wanting brand-new, top-of-the-line tires every few months. Why not? It’s free. So you’d need to create a bureaucracy to determine when people were allowed to get new tires and what kind they could have. Auto shops would have to expand the amount of documentation required to justify new tires for their customers. Because more people are getting tires than need them, and because you’ve added layers of bureaucracy, the cost of new tires goes up. Which means the cost of insurance to pay for those new tires also goes up. Consumers wouldn’t see that cost increase when they get the tires, but they would when they pay their premiums. So they demand subsidies. Car insurance is just too expensive for the average family. The subsidies blunt the cost of premiums for families but do nothing to control the actual cost of new tires. In fact, they inflate it further. Car insurance companies respond by creating more rules limiting how often people can get tires. Auto shops hire more people to navigate those rules. Wait times for tires increase. So now tires cost more in both time and money. People who truly need tires have to wait in line with people who just want new ones because they qualify. The auto shops that thrive are the ones best at navigating regulations, not the ones that provide the best tires at the best price. More resources are misallocated. Insurance costs climb further. More people demand subsidies. Soon people scoff at the idea of paying cash for tires. How could the average American afford that? We don’t even know the cash price. Some auto shops quote $200,000 for a set of tires, but most won’t even post their prices anymore. Why would they? They have multiple contracts with insurance companies and don’t even sell directly to consumers anymore. Prices continue to rise because nobody actually sees them. More subsidies are demanded. Prices keep climbing. But people don’t actually have access to tires. What they do have is access to a very expensive car insurance product that covers tires. So, do you see why subsidizing health insurance doesn’t actually increase access to healthcare?
Loren Adler@LorenAdler

@brian_blase Without subsidization, you end up with large numbers of Americans unable to afford or access health care. This is also far from the only reason a labor-intensive industry ends up with high costs. But it is a reason many countries regulate prices.

@camhigby For many, teaching schools is a low effort job easily attained because the systems of education have been handed over to the effeminate for decades past.

🚨 BREAKING: After a conservative Florida councilman stated his STRONG opposition of Indian immigration to the US, he was voted to be removed from office by the council. Chandler Langevin said "Indians don't assimilate" and "they're here to drain our pockets and get back to India rich...or worse...to stay." "The immigration system works overtime against Americans and Indian immigrants are at the forefront of its abuse to enrich Indians at the expense of Americans.” When pressed, he said: "I stand by my comments. Palm Bay will not become Dallas or Dearborn." The council voted 4-1 formally requesting Gov. Ron DeSantis remove him from office. A Democrat went off on him, saying, "You brag about a proud Confederate heritage...white supremacy lost too. When you cling to that heritage, you're not showing strength, you're showing loyalty to failure." Chandler also called Democrat State Rep. Angie Nixon - who is black - "low IQ," prompting accusations of racism. He responded: "I didn’t call Angie Nixon low IQ because she’s black. I called her low IQ because she has an absolute room temperature IQ." Whether he is suspended is up to the governor now.

“So you’re telling me you’re cucked into self censorship?” No, I’m telling you that the people who see things differently than you do have determined that you’re not emotionally mature enough to handle disagreement in a spirit of camaraderie

At a Portland concert last night I heard a guy give the “every city is like that bro” to an out if town couple who had a rough experience in our city. The wife was like “no I work in downtown Detroit and it’s not like that.” I was there this year and agree. It’s much cleaner

I grew up homeschooled in the 1980s. We had great books to read (and no TV). I read tons of books that taught me about America’s unique place in history, its people, and how Christianity was at the core of its founding. Want the books for your kids? I made a list: 👇🏻

This is what winning looks like! Just one day after exposed the DEI apparatus infecting TCU, the Associate Vice Chancellor (HR) scrubbed all mention of DEI from her profile This is not enough, to truly eliminate DEI, the staff pushing it must be held to account They’re nervous

Texas Christian University holds pride events but will not allow Christian baptisms and events. They denied our 10/7 event despite many rooms being available according to students and faculty, when pressed they said “this is not open for discussion” This is how free speech dies

Why are there commonly used terms such as Islamophobia, homophobia, transphobia, but nothing commonly used for the same attitude toward Christians, straight people, or people who know that gender is a biological reality? The answer is “brainwashing.” Guys, I’m not trying to be edgy here. I am trying to turn the lights on.

Another teacher? He’s still in the classroom? “The idea that this racist, sexist, evil piece of 💩 would end up in heaven is a perversion of anything resembling Christianity.” Brett Fink is still teaching at Key West High School. How can any of his students trust him? 📍FL
