@AmyInCheeseLand @RHJrod I’m not arguing, but just looking back on one of our most beloved hymns “It is Well With My Soul” there is baggage. I’m sure the same remains with others. Are they excluded as well? I struggle to find a firm balance here.

@GoodmanHoops Hope this is the path @ThomasMeleek takes. I can see so many parallels here and think his trajectory is the same.

Let’s remember that Alabama’s Labaron Philon told reporters he was “all-in” on staying in the NBA Draft at the combine a year ago.
Then he and his agent realized he wasn’t a lock first rounder, he withdrew just prior to the deadline and then went out and had a terrific season in which he may have worked his way into the lottery come draft night.

This guy’s moment seems over now (thankfully), but just in case…
What’s a dream life to him?
A porn dream or a lightsaber dream.
What’s a nightmare to him?
Being a married father raising three glorious daughters.
This is what Romans 1 calls “a debased mind” and if you’re a young man who wants to live a life of fulfillment and consequence…
1) Run as far as you can from guys like this
2) Bend your knee to Jesus
3) Read 1 chapter of the Bible and pray everyday
4) Go to church
5) Find a cute girl who loves Jesus and marry young
6) Have at least 1 more child than you think you can afford
7) Channel your energy into building / accomplishing something instead of using it to complain all the time

Nick Fuentes mocks one of his followers for getting married and having daughters. Notice the constant nose touching. The face mannerisms. The odd jaw movements. What habit does that suggest?

Children with Down syndrome are not “mistakes” because they have an extra chromosome.
They are fully human. Whole. Unique. Precious. Made in the image of God.
This older brother got a chromosome tattoo on his wrist to honor his sibling with Down syndrome, turning what the world calls “extra” into something beautiful.
Every life has inherent dignity and worth.

@KatTimpf So very sorry for your loss, but just know that God sees, knows, and CARES for you. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
1 Peter 5:7 - Casting all your anxieties on Him, because He cares for you.
Psalm 34:18 - The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.

My seemingly healthy, strong father Daniel “Dad Timpf” Timpf died very unexpectedly on the evening of May 7 at just 69 years old.
It does not seem like enough to simply call him my father, because he was so much more than that. He was my rock, my hero and my best friend. He was loyal, funny, kind, selfless, hard-working, and so devoted to his children that it was impossible to be near him and not find yourself inspired. He was a writer, a painter, a sailor, and somehow knowledgeable on every subject from world history to literature to accounting. He was the most dependable person anyone has ever met. I always felt like, as long as I had his phone number, there was not a problem I could not solve. I needed him here with me; I am not okay, and I am far from the only person who feels this.
The birth of my son in February 2025, his first grandchild, was supposed to be a happy new beginning for our family. A family that had been already once devastated by an untimely loss: the loss of my mother Anne Marie to a rare disease in 2014 just a matter of weeks after her diagnosis.
The joy of my son’s birth was, of course, complicated by my also very unexpected breast cancer diagnosis just a matter of hours before going into labor with him. During this time, my dad did what he did best, which was to save the day. As soon as he heard about my diagnosis, he simply got into the car and started driving to New York -- making it through the tunnel just as my son was born…on the day that happened to be his own birthday, as well.
In the tumultuous time of a simultaneous new cancer diagnosis and new baby, my dad was the sole reason for our stability, rushing in to help care for our son, and returning to do so again for my double mastectomy, reconstructive surgery, and any time that we ever needed him. It was an awful, awful year… but I found so much joy and hope throughout it by watching the beauty of a very special relationship form between my son and my father. This horrible thing that was happening was creating such a very special bond between the two of them -- almost making the terrible thing worth it -- and I was so excited to see how that bond would grow.
The bond was of top priority for my father, who visited from Michigan often. I saw him last on the Monday before he died, and my son was so proud to help his grandfather push his suitcase down to the car as he left. The goodbyes were quick. Why wouldn’t they be? We would all see each other again at the beginning of June, when we would all head to Texas for my shows and to see my grandpa. We wanted to make sure that my son could spend as much time as he could with his great-grandfather. He is, after all, 93.
I was certainly not over the trauma of my cancer or having to amputate the breasts I so badly wanted to feed my son with, but the one thing I could always count on to get me through my worst moments was seeing my son’s and my father’s faces light up when they saw each other, be it during the visits or our routine morning and bedtime FaceTime calls.
That is, at least, until I had to hear over the phone from a doctor I had never met in an emergency room in the same town up north that I’d previously announced to my father that I was pregnant that my dad was dead; I would never see him again, and neither would my son. It would turn out that last year was not the hard one, after all. Rather, it was the one I would now do anything to relive. I would amputate my breasts every year just to be able to speak with him one more time, even for five minutes.
I am currently living an unimaginable horror. For many people, this is a tragic story. For me, it’s my life. I do not know how I will recover from it. I only know that I have to for the sake of what is left of my family.

@nettermike Almost assuredly the best story I’ll read today. ❤️🩹❤️
English

When Rachael Prescott, 39, was told she was expecting twins with Down Syndrome, the doctors’ first reaction wasn’t surprise...
It was fear.Not theirs. Hers; expected, anticipated, almost demanded.
They told her six times.Six times they offered her an abortion.
And even before her daughters were born, someone went so far as to offer condolences.
But Rachael didn’t cry.
She didn’t shake.
She didn’t want to run away.
With her, her husband Cody, a young student pilot, chose to stay with her.
Despite the fears.
Despite their daughters’ hearts showing serious defects.
Despite everyone’s eyes on those extra chromosomes as if they were a verdict.
Charlotte and Annette were born in 2018. Identical, small, powerful.
A one-in-a-million case.
Two lives that should have been frightening, yet brought hope instead.
Charlotte underwent heart surgery at six months.
Annette, against all odds, was born without heart defects.
The birth? Natural. No emergencies.
Just immense gratitude.
Around them, silences full of dark expectations. As if everyone was ready to see them suffer.
But Rachael made it clear:
“There was no pain in our hearts. Only Love. For those living little bodies, for those smiles full of life, for those extra chromosomes that don’t change the essential.”
Today, Charlotte and Annette explore the world with eyes full of wonder.
Small, yes. With unsteady steps and laughter that fills the house.
They play with their siblings, cuddle the dog Max.
They live every day with a joy that can’t be measured by medical charts.
Rachael has no doubts:
“If I could go back, I would choose them again. Exactly as they are.”
Because true Love isn’t afraid of difference...
And courage isn’t in fighting the diagnosis, but in looking it in the eye and saying...
“I welcome you.”

@SkardaScott @will2whitson Maybe if we trade up for a 2nd good pick, no way we draft him at 3

Season ticket holder for Hogs and just soaked up every game I got to witness in person this season.

@GaryParrishCBS @EyeOnCBBPodcast Memphis ought to take Acuff. It’d be a natural.
