@JeffVeillette Sundin-Matthews

I know I’m beating a dead horse here but I really do not understand this retconning of Sundin as a vocal, emotional winner, other than today’s adults maybe being too young to remember that his tenure in Toronto was treated very similarly to the current crop of stars in the moment

Come to church.

@GoodsOnSports The GOAT.

Shoutout to those who go WAY back

@racheljwelcher There is something to white noise and productive spaces that contributes to one's productivity. Coffee helps too.

I do my best work with the sound of an espresso machine and multiple conversations happening in the background.

@KSPrior *hat tip*

So this just happened! 🎉

@fishstark @BenSasse Why not both?

All right @BenSasse, let's make a bet. Let's divide the US in half. I'll let you pick which half. In your half, you ban Candy Crush. In my half we institute 16 weeks of paid parental leave, universal childcare, & a restored child tax credit. Let's see which has more babies.

In doing so, they witness that marriage is something substantive, not just a pro forma legal arrangement. Their reticence suggests they sense something ontological about it all...in that way, I applaud them, but encourage them to take that step nevertheless.

I've had this debate multiple times, so let's put it out here - If the question is "artist" rather than "performer," isn't the answer Bach, or Mozart, maybe Beethoven? Their music has lasted centuries. Michael may get there, but the answer has to be a much older one, yes?

This account never misses.

What word is your spelling nemesis? This is a safe space.

Religious kids used to be noticeably happier than secular ones. After 2012, that gap exploded. Jonathan Haidt dropped this on The Daily Show: Religious children have built-in community, rituals, and traditions that anchor them. Secular kids, especially those handed phones and iPads early, are left floating without real roots. Haidt (who’s an atheist) says non-religious parents now have to work much harder to intentionally create stable social connections, because a network of strangers, bots, and algorithms is not a community — it’s crazy-making. In the smartphone era, the protective effect of community and ritual has weakened dramatically for everyone, but especially for kids growing up without traditional anchors. We traded thick, real-world belonging for thin digital freedom — and we’re watching a generation pay the price in anxiety and meaninglessness. Do you think religious community still gives kids a real advantage in 2025, or can intentional secular parents create equally strong roots without it? What’s worked (or failed) in your experience?

@AndrewBrethauer @MLarkinHockey My ten-year-old self is healing.

@TerraAnimata @MLarkinHockey I truthfully don't think there is a 'legit' way to score a goal that doesn't include some glitch.

Pre internet, the magic was in discovering the X dump-in goal before the blueline completely on your own, organically, after hours of (scoreless) play

@RedWingDiehards On the whole, I think this team can get it done. Pro scouting has been a huge problem, and that needs fixed ASAP.

If the Red Wings don’t make some change(s) to the front office in the next short period of time: do you have faith in the current staff/structure to get the on-ice roster figured out in their latest attempt to do so this upcoming summer?

“Religion withdrew to its own arena, lost the relationship in which it stood with the other sciences, and appointed itself as the great master whose task it was to impede the unwelcome progress that the other sciences were making. All too often it forgot that our beautiful confession says that we know God from two books: the book of Scripture, as well as the book of Nature in which the majesty of the Lord of lords is revealed to us in golden letters.” — A. Kuyper

@TheDonStein I mean...there's a large gap between "funding" alt-right groups, and paying informants inside the groups for relevant information, yes?

I have said for a years that there is fundamentally zero difference between the Alt-Right and the Far Left, both in terms of their tactics and their hermeneutics. Today is a day of vindication. 😎

@LGRWProspects It's why we've got no choice but to believe that Max Plante is gonna be a real guy. We need real offensive production from outside the first rounders.

@LGRWProspects Part of the Yzerman DET/TB dichotomy is that in TB, he hit on Kucherov and Point. We just haven't had that kind of success, and until we do, it's gonna be real hard to develop a Cup-contending roster.

Between the ‘19 draft and the ‘22 draft the red wings had 9 second round picks. Only one, Albert Johansson, is currently on the red wings roster. On average it tends to take 2nd rounders 4-5+yrs to make the nhl. Around 34-46% make the nhl depending on the GP limit. Oof #LGRW

@spittinchiclets Jamie Langenbrunner put in a slapper from center ice in overtime, WCF, DAL-DET 1998

WORST PLAYOFF GOAL OF ALL-TIME?! 🤣
