I bought a jar of blackberry jam to try and help me remember just these days.

Today those of my faith celebrate Palm Sunday. This day commemorates one of the events leading up to the pinnacle of all Christendom, the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
What strikes me so profoundly today is the observation that the event (A Man, riding a donkey, enters a city) is not only remembered today, but was thrilling the day it happened, and anticipated for eons before. While our perspectives are certainly different, myself and my contemporaries adore and worship the same Messiah, the Son of God as did those thousands upon thousands of years ago.
My faith is not new, not a trend, not a whim.Â
Independence Day wasn’t the day we became free as a nation.
July 4th, 1776 was the day we declared our intention to be free, whatever the cost.
This day is not about the freedom we possess, it’s about our resolution to obtain and defend our freedom even against insurmountable odds.
That’s the spirit of America: the little guy who won’t back down.
🇺🇸 Happy Independence Day, America. 🇺🇸
same energy. had to slow them down, they move 20% faster irl.
Have you ever seen a post/take that is just so stupid that whatever patience or respect you might have had for the author or his or her position just dissipates? You wanna speak up to the contrary and rip their argument to shreds because they are so wrong and Out-of-Touch with Reality?
PSA: If you played BotW, Tears of the Kingdom will connect to your save data so you can keep the same horses in both games. Nothing else in my life matters right now. This is the best feature they ever could’ve added. 100/10
Look I believe deeply in research and studies and careful analysis of heaps of data ("In God we trust; all others, bring evidence.") but something deep in my bones tells me that being outside playing so much you inevitably attempt to eat dirt is, in fact, a healthy thing.
if pointing out that the age of getting a phone decreasing along with the prevalence of short form video as the dominant form of social media content during the most significant collective educational gap in recent history all of which happened during one of the most significant windows of psychological development in a human lifetime has had a deleterious effect on the attention spans, self-regulation, impulse control, social skills, tech literacy, and actual literacy of zoomers and gen alpha. if pointing out that that is a real and serious problem makes me a boomer and an old crank who has fallen for “kids these days” propaganda someone find me a porch and a rocking chair so i can yell at you to get off my lawn
