The way people fought me over Biden's economy... 😩 We were doing good. Things were mending. It just took too long for the average American voter

Talarico: There's been a lot of talk in this race about what it means to be a real man. Here's what real men don't do. They don't lie and cheat their way through life. They don't sell their soul to the highest bidder. They don't steal from other people in order to enrich themselves. Real men serve others, weak men serve themselves. And so I welcome this debate about what it means to be a man.  And I don't think Ken Paxton or Ted Cruz are in a position to tell anybody what a real man is.

To everyone so eager to cancel someone for a tattoo they got at age 22, a drunk text, a selfie they took in the middle of a mental health crisis: Show us your laptop. Show us your iCloud. Open your entire digital life to your worst enemy. No context. No filter. No explanation. You won’t. You won’t because you know what I know. Any one of us, frozen at our worst moment, photographed in our lowest hour, looks like a monster. Looks like a stranger. Looks like someone who deserves to be cast out. That is not who we are. My mom and baby sister were killed in a car accident when I was just a kid. Cancer took my brother Beau, my best friend and my rock. I battled alcoholism. I battled addiction. I chose the coward’s way out more times than I can count. For years I believed the defining chapters of my life were written by tragedy, loss, and shame. I no longer believe that. Pain can shape us. Loss can humble us. Failures can leave scars that never fully fade. But none of them have the authority to define us. And it sure as hell ain’t the critic that counts. That authority belongs to us alone-the person in the arena. Every setback presents a choice. Play the victim, or cut the bullshit and take ownership for who we become next. Life does not determine our character. It reveals it. Again and again we are asked the same question. When shit happens, what next? We are not defined by what happened to us. We are not defined by the worst photo, the worst text, the worst tattoo, the worst night. We are defined by the person we choose to become. And by the courage to choose that person, every single day. So before you reach for the gavel - show us your laptop. You won’t. The whole world saw mine. And I am still here. Still becoming. Still choosing. Still standing. That is the only definition that matters.

Crying. Fking cryyyying

Valid answer.

*shrieking into the abyss*

Still so impressed that they pretty much gave us "Destiny 2: Definitive Edition" and last night was the most fun playing I've had since Heresy episode. Give it a try, gamers.

Me apareció en recuerdos la foto que fue LA FOTO del pride de 2024: un señor portugués abrazando una bandera LGBT. El señor estaba parado en la puerta de su casa viendo pasar la marcha en Porto, sosteniendo una bandera portuguesa lo cual inicialmente asustó a varios porque agitar la bandera nacional en ese contexto puede ser señal de protesta nacionalista anti-LGBT. La gente en la marcha se detuvo, preocupada por lo que podría pasar. Pero resulta que el señor estaba agitando la bandera portuguesa porque no tenía una bandera arcoíris y quería participar de alguna forma. Una chica llamada Lily se acercó. El hombre intercambió su bandera portuguesa por la bandera que Lily traía sobre los hombros. Lo que ven en la foto es el momento exacto en que él la recibe y la abraza. Alguien se sintió visto y parte de algo más grande ese día. Eso es el orgullo: dejar de ser invisibles. 🏳️‍🌈❤️✨

The people who used his addiction as a weapon for six years are now uncomfortable that he survived it with enough clarity to make jokes about it. That discomfort is not your problem to manage. Seven years of sobriety through federal prosecution and national humiliation is not a political event. It is a human one. The wit he's bringing to it — the crack pipe photoshop correction, the cocaine denial with the punchline — is the specific register of someone who has fully processed the worst thing that happened to them. You cannot fake that register. It takes years of actual work. His account of what happened to his father is coherent and worth hearing even if you disagree with it. His criticisms of Democratic establishment figures are the kind serious people across the spectrum have been making for years. None of that becomes wrong because he's the one saying it. The question isn't whether Hunter Biden deserves sympathy. The question is whether we're capable of giving it to someone whose name became a political symbol before it became a person again. That's a test of us, not of him.

Losing my mind about some of these lore beats.. This has been YEARS of lorebuilding arghghhg. The Destiny storytelling needs to continue. The Ahamkara whims🥹The Dreaming City curse 😭 @Bungie @PlayStation
