I have not been on X very long. My youngest of three children, 23 year old, told me never to get on this app.
I had high hopes of spreading awareness for a rare genetic disease that has and is affecting my family. I was diagnosed 14 months ago with juvenile Hypophosphatasia. This is why my screen name is โLow ALP Matters.โโ๐ป

Anyone going to Baltimore for vacation?๐
Gill: "You think Baltimore is a safe city?" Franklin: "Of course it is." Gill: "Okay. Do you know what the homicide rate is in Baltimore?" Franklin: "Exactly, no." Gill: "It's about 35 per 100,000. Do you know what the homicide rate is in the rest of the United States?" Franklin: "No, I don't." Gill: "I can tell you that the homicide rate in Baltimore is about five times the national average. Do you know how Baltimore's robbery rate compares to the rest of the United States?" Franklin: "At the moment, no, I don't." Gill: "It's about 8.4 times the national average. Do you know how Baltimore's assault rate compares to the national average?" Franklin: "No, I don't." Gill: "It's about 3.4 times higher. Does that sound like a safe city to you?" Franklin: "Safe to me and my family members." Gill: "So that's safe to you? Five times higher than the national average for homicides. That's a safe city?"๐๏ธ
These people are all insane!

Memo to the press:
When a president is elected by the People and then does what he promised to do, thatโs democracy.
When a president is thwarted by unelected bureaucrats, thatโs oligarchy.
President Trump refuses to bend the knee to that oligarchy. Buckle up!

โThe Revolutionary War had a massive Ulster Scots/Presbyterian dimension that often gets overlooked. Scots-Irish Presbyterians were disproportionately represented in both the Continental Army and backcountry militia, and their Reformed theology gave them a ready-made intellectual framework for resisting the Crown. King Georgeโs own ministers reportedly called it โthe Presbyterian rebellion.โโ We have been brothers for a long time.โ๐ป

World Cup 2026 Day 2: A three-hour train ride took me from Miami to Orlando for England's final friendly against Costa Rica.
There was the heaviest thunderstorm I've ever seen, even if the locals described it as "nothing". My feet still aren't dry, but turns out they were right.

Iโve hired a car for this week and i have driven a few hours now ive noticed a couple of things,
People are really good at letting people out at junctions and get out their way to let pedestrians cross the road literally anywhere
However, there is absolutely no chill for any kind of mistake or delay you literally have 0.1 seconds to move at a green or stop sign or the horns getting blasted ๐

I am embarrassed and ashamed for California and the United States. This is not what so many of my ancestors fought for. I am proud of my Mayflower/Ulster Scots/Palatine German heritage, but not where this country may be headed.

We donโt want our tax money spent on this!
Kansas City has launched a new Innovation Team (known as the "i-team") housed within the Mayor's Office, dedicated to addressing climate and economic challenges with a focus on the communities most affected by them.
