@AdamMazza @alixonmartinez2 Appreciate the dialogue but we’re not just googling. This is our world for the last year and we’re in the thick of it at this very moment. 110k annual salary is nothing nowadays. that’s like saying to someone it’s ok to go buy a 500k house on a 110k salary.

Trump: "There are those that say this is maybe the biggest summit ever. They can never remember anything like it. I can say in the United States people aren't talking about anything else."

@amconmag Trump trying to display strength by pulling the handshake close to himself… he’s such a clown. Xi is laughing at him the whole time.

🚨MASSIVE INSULT: Trump just landed in China. Xi Jinping did not greet him at the airport. Instead: the US Ambassador, China’s Vice President, and two foreign ministry officials. The White House is calling it “red carpet treatment.” The same summit that was downgraded to a low-impact meeting before it started. The same China that offered no clear agenda and no concessions. He brought the entire American corporate elite 7,000 miles for this. China is treating the United States like a third world country. 🤦🏾‍♂️

@WVPitt One of the great joys of summer when our girls were young enough to need supervision but old enough to swim with me present was the quiet reading time that allowed me in the early evenings poolside several days a week :)

Football practice starts this week for the middle school kid (South Carolina may be the best state to homeschool) so that means I pick up a random fiction book to read while sitting in the drop-off/pick-up line.

@reedrrosales 9 flights is crazy... 12 flights total. Maybe they could donate a flew flights to #d3hoops to get a bit better bracketing there? (are the budgets for different sports really so different that they'll fly 12 teams in the spring and don't like doing half that for basketball?)

As for softball, I can’t believe they flew 9 teams. I didn’t mock a softball bracket, but I have to imagine that it would’ve been way easier (and cheaper) to fly the west coast teams + TLU. Again though, I didn’t mock a softball bracket, so that’s just speculation on my part.

The brackets are out for baseball and softball. How did the committees do? Let’s split each field into 4 sections of 16 to find out. Key for the pictures below: Green = “1 seeds” (1-16) Yellow = “2 seeds” (17-32) Blue = “3 seeds” (33-48) White = “4 seeds” (49-64) #d3baseball

@jimboxp @AlecStapp They don't mean median by income. They mean the number of flights taken by the middle person in the distribution of all adults ranked by number of flights taken. That number is zero.

@Roofthatch22 @AlecStapp Median was intended. Take the population, rank by number of flights, quote the number of flights taken by the middle person in the distribution. As long as fewer than 50% fly in a given year, the median person didn't fly. (and yes, it's the mode as well - most people didn't fly)

@TheRochaSays @RpsAgainstTrump I really don’t understand why everyone is calling this a golden calf when the direct analogy is clearly Nebuchadnezzar’s giant statue in Daniel 3. THAT is the kind of problem we have here, not the golden calf…

For fuck’s sakes. If you’re a person who worships the Bible and respects God’s Word, how you don’t see that this is LITERALLY WORSHIPPING A GOLDEN CALF IDOL in violation of God’s word is beyond me. It’s so f’ng obvious that it truly beggars belief how these people don’t see it. (Also, Mark Burns can kiss my Christian ass with his lies. It’s not like there ISN’T a historical record of religious people kowtowing to people in power for wealth and status and lying to their followers about it.)

MAGA evangelical leaders gathered this week at Trump National Doral Miami to bless a towering gold statue honoring Donald Trump, led by pastor Mark Burns. Trump himself called into the event to thank Burns and the guests. “Let me be clear: this is not a golden calf. We worship the Lord Jesus Christ and Him alone,” Burns later said.
