I don't have a journalism degree—but why does the media expect the Republican House to just follow the Democrat Senate's lead on government funding? - House has passed 74% of funding through regular order. No omnibus. - Senate has done NOTHING, including a stopgap bill

Here’s an unpopular take; Representation isn’t always a good thing, and greatness should be celebrated. Video games modeling their characters after people with perfect physiques is how things should be. And before you misconstrue my arguments and say I’m fatphobic, hear me out; Growing up, I was overweight. I would always read books and play video games in which the protagonist was a male in his 20s, fit, and sure of himself. This gave something to look up to. It gave me an idea of what I should aspire to be like. Eventually, I got into lifting when I was 16 and can now proudly say that I’ve become, in almost all regards, the person that my younger self would’ve looked up to. A man who strives to become better, isn’t afraid to take risks, and doesn’t let what others think influence his way of being. Now, why is this relevant? Because representation is important; But only for factors that you cannot control. Things like race, height, gender, etc… should all have a plethora of options to choose from because it gives younger people a role model that they can relate to. But for things that can be controlled? There should always be an ideal. A standard. Men should know that it’s perfectly fine to be weak. That it’s fine to be indecisive. That it’s fine to be emotional. That it’s fine to be overweight. However, they should also know that life is about improving yourself in every regard. Going through struggles so that you can become the best possible version of yourself. So they should want to become men that take pride in their body. They should want to become men who are willing to take the lead. They should want to become the man that their younger self would’ve idolized. No one deserves to be bullied for how they are. No one deserves to be made fun of for any physical or mental characteristics that they might have. But you owe it to yourself to want to become the best version of you. Physically. Mentally. Emotionally. People should be accepted for how they are; But only greatness should be celebrated.

I am building out channels in my Discord for the Ladies' scrims on Saturday. I love and value all people, and as a Christian, I believe God created people in His image as male and female. (Genesis 5:1-2) Therefore, I will not be allowing trans players to participate.

In a Democracy, it seems like the perfect “Jury of one’s Peers,” is to allow the American People to cast their vote in November 2024. This man just so happens to be on the ballot. Drop the charges and the People decide.

UPDATE on the FBI shooting of Craig Robertson, who had made numerous death threats against Joe Biden, Alvin Bragg, Kamala Harris, the FBI and other According to Robertson's neighbors: Dozens of FBI agents with tactical gear showed up at Robertson's home between 6-6:30 AM. They lined up in front of Robertson's door, and using a megaphone, ordered him to exit with his hands up. Robertson, who previously threatened the FBI on social media, by stating “Hey FBI, you still monitoring my social media? Checking so I can be sure to have a loaded gun handy in case you drop by again,” did not open up. The police then attempted to break through his front door, which was extremely heavy. They couldn’t break it open, so they used a breaching vehicle to break a window. That’s when neighbors heard the first shots. One neighbor told the DeseretNews, after hearing initial gun shots, “[I heard] them yell ‘shots fired, shots fired. He has a gun!’ And then a whole bunch more shots,” “They were all shooting at the same time ... and at that point in time, I was in get-my-kid mode.” I know there are a lot of people who are somehow trying to blame this on the FBI and trying to make Robertson look like an innocent victim here. To me that certainly doesn't seem to be the case. I would agree that the FBI should release body cam footage as well as a statement on what happened, but people need to stop jumping to conclusion based on the narrative that they want to be true. People of all political beliefs can be bad. There are bad Republicans, bad Democrats, bad FBI agents and bad people who don't give a crap about politics. Stop creating narrative as some way to earn points for your team.

Oh no…did I do this???
