@MaskedSingerFOX The fact that she was unmasked before the Snowcone is insane. Taraji was much more enjoyable than whatever that autotuned performance from the snowcone was. I was stunned Snowcone is staying.
This pastor is telling parents to leave California if AB 495 passes.
The bill is so crazy, even I didn’t believe the 1st reports. Here’s the shocking details every parent should be concerned about.
A non-parent adult (such as a friend, teacher, mentor, neighbor, or coach) can self-declare they have a "family-like or mentoring relationship" with the child or child’s family.
That person can then sign an affidavit under penalty of perjury stating the child lives with them and they are acting as the caregiver.
The affidavit does not require a parent’s signature or court approval.
It grants that person legal authority to:
Enroll the child in school
Consent to medical, dental, and mental health treatment
Providers (schools, doctors, etc.) who rely on the affidavit are protected from liability, even if the parent later objects — unless the provider had actual knowledge the affidavit was invalid.

This man is a police officer who makes $70k per year
He says after taxes he gets about $4k per month but 1 bedroom apartments are all $2,400 per month in his area. Mortgagees are even more, after bills he has nothing left
He’s moved back in with his parents and sees no future
“And I honestly, I'm discouraged. I'm discouraged. I have a decent job. My job is inherently kind of dangerous -/ And before you're like, well, you can work overtime and details. Yeah, dude, I don't want to work my life away. I have a lot of things I like to do outside of my job. I want to spend time with my family and hopefully I have my own family someday and I want to actually see my kids — I just feel like I'm f*cked. Like I'm f*cked.”
The cost of housing is a national emergency in America and nobody in power seems to care
Convicted pedophile and registered s*x offender Anthony Weiner appeared on The View as part of his attempted political comeback, signaling plans to run for office again.
When questioned about his past, Weiner blamed his pedophile nature on "addiction" and insisted he’s no longer that person.
He now asks New Yorkers to trust him at the ballot box, claiming he’s taken accountability for his behavior and moved on from s*xualizing children.
He received a round of applause.
@TheRealAnnaCamp is amazing in the new season of @YouNetflix. Her characters feel 100% like different people and neither feel incomplete. I hope this is remembered come @TheEmmys season
@TheRealAnnaCamp you are making this whole season of You for me. You're playing two roles so wildly defined I'm just in awe but crazy Maddie; next level.. next atmosphere! Just wanted to take time to appreciate the art.
Marriage, at its core, is a voluntary covenant, a profound act of courage and responsibility that binds two souls in the face of life’s chaos. You ask why we marry? It’s not merely for love, though love is the spark. It’s because we crave a partner to stand with us against the abyss of existence, to share the burden of being. We seek someone to witness our struggle, to affirm that our trials—our victories and defeats—are not in vain.
Man is a creature of meaning, and marriage is a crucible for forging it. You marry to have someone to turn to at day’s end, to wrestle with the weight of your thoughts, your doubts, your aspirations. It’s a commitment to face the dragon of life together, to build something enduring—a family, a legacy, a microcosm of order in a world that tilts toward entropy. This isn’t sentimentality; it’s a pragmatic necessity.
Alone, you’re vulnerable to despair.
Together, you’re fortified, not because life gets easier, but because shared suffering has purpose.
Consider the alternative: a life unwitnessed, where your joys and sorrows echo into the void. Marriage says, “I see you. Your existence matters.” It’s a vow to hold each other accountable, to call one another to higher virtue, to confront the flaws and shadows within. It’s not about fleeting happiness—happiness is a byproduct, not the goal. It’s about meaning, the kind that emerges when you sacrifice your selfish impulses for something greater.
Critics might claim you can find meaning elsewhere—in friendships, in solitude. And there’s truth there; the individual must stand upright before entering the union. But marriage is a unique crucible, a sacred pact that demands you integrate your being with another’s, not just for your sake, but for the world’s. It’s the foundation of civilization itself.
families, communities, cultures rise from this bond. To marry is to say, “Despite the chaos, I choose to build. I choose to love. I choose to fight for order.” And in that choice, life’s troubles become not just bearable, but noble.
