Compromise where you can. Where you can't, don't. Even if everyone is telling you that something wrong is something right. Even if the whole world is telling you to move, it is your duty to plant yourself like a tree, look them in the eye, and say 'No, you move'.

Doctor Strange didn't pick the 1 in 14,000,605 timeline because it was the only way to beat Thanos. he picked it because it was the only timeline that got rid of both Thanos AND Tony Stark at the same time.
go back and watch how Strange talks to Tony on the ship. he realized early on that a guy smart enough to build Ultron and time travel in a weekend was eventually going to be a bigger threat to the multiverse than Thanos ever was.

The richest Americans’ wealth has exploded since the 1970s, and the gap keeps widening, per WSJ
Real household wealth growth since 1976, adjusted for inflation:
Top 0.001%: about +3,400%
Top 0.01%: about +2,300%
Top 0.1%: about +1,250%
Top 1%: about +650%
All households: about +330%
The very richest have grown their wealth roughly 10 times faster than the typical household.
I just saw this. Prayers up. I wouldn’t wish this on anyway. Espeically a good dude like Jalen Williams.

Cool. Bet it won’t lead to any changes.
The Eagles' offense is done making excuses as Sean Mannion makes some major changes.

Spurs 0-2
Brian Wright did not attempt to improve the roster's flaws in the draft or offseason
Dylan Harper's camp pushing for him to start despite him still getting starter-like usage off the bench & him being on the bench makes the team better
-Wemby's ego and nonechalant attitude
-De'Aaron Fox lack of accountability "I move on easily" after costing us the finals
-no improvement from any of the bench players
It's going to be a long season but they need to figure this out
I’m sorry. Wemby getting blocked by someone a foot shorter than him is weak. I’m so frustrated with him right now. He will get right but he needs to grow up and quick.

BREAKING: The Mississippi Free Press has obtained bodycam footage from the Senatobia police officer who fired the fatal shot that killed 1-year-old Kohen Wiley.
The footage shows he was standing on the side of the car when he fired into it, hitting the child.
Thunder fans celebrating like they won the Super Bowl. Sad.

Jalen Hurts was a national storyline last night on the evening news, this morning america today and the Eagles thought just throwing Nick Sirriani out there to the execution squad was a good idea. sheesh.
That’s still not great
Just spoke to Jalen Hurts’ agent, Nicole Lynn, who clarified that while Hurts was up until early Sunday morning getting evaluated at a hospital, he was able to sleep upon rejoining the team and the Eagles set aside a room for him at the stadium. Videos from the stadium show Hurts coming onto the field just before kickoff and he felt rested enough to play.

Have no idea really what took place here. When I was with the Eagles and we won the Super Bowl, the team surprisingly moved on from/changed the medical + athletic training staff in the months right after. Timing seemed odd.
At some point in the next year or two they made even more changes, replacing the replacements. I don’t know much about why, but it was frustrating as someone receiving good medical care to have to change doctors and not have stability.
Think they have made even more changes recently. It is confusing on what the reporting structure is and who would make the final determination that he can play.
#Eagles QB Jalen Hurts, who is out for the season after several blood clots were revealed in his lungs, has been undergoing tests for days.
Before the London game, Hurts was in the hospital until 4 am and did not sleep because sleep was a risk. He played without having slept.

I'm not exaggerating, Jeffrey Lurie needs to hire an independent investigator to review the entire decision making process that led to Jalen Hurts not only playing that game in London, but then getting onto a transatlantic flight back.
He could have died, heads need to roll.
