I’m going to say something that shouldn’t be controversial but will be. If you are a Christian, you can support border control and immigration being legal vs illegal. You CANNOT celebrate deportations and get off on the cruelty, and be a real Christ follower. Period

To all those who say Trump has “single-handedly” wrecked the economy: He didn’t do it single-handedly. Congress could’ve stopped him anytime. The Republican-led Congress allowed him to wreck the economy.

Pope Francis lifted the world as he led the Church with his profound moral voice. As he returns to God, may his call to humility and concern for the least among us continue to resound.

no one talks about how soul-affirming it is to get a “had so much fun with you” text after hanging out. not a meme. not a tiktok. not a link. just a plain little sentence saying “i like you. i like your company.” we live for that.
like when someone sends “still smiling from earlier” hours after the hang. or when they walk you to your car even though it’s 30 feet away. that’s the kind of stuff that ruins me.
There’s a term in psychology called habituation: the way we stop noticing things we see often. A painting on the wall. A familiar view. Even a person’s kindness.
The brain filters the predictable to save energy. But in doing so, it risks filtering out what makes life feel full.
Not everything that becomes familiar should be forgotten.
Sometimes, attention is an act of love.

Great read! I definitely think the attitude around GLP-1s is changing. I worked with a client that had battled weight issues forever and he worked his ass off and lost a few pounds tracking meals and dialing up his activity/resistance work but his results never seemed commensurate with his effort. When he got on GLP-1s it was life changing and validating.
They are life changing. Those who take them finally know the experience of having food noise stop, a natural fullness when eating a reasonable amount, lack of desire for junk, and just a feeling of eating to live and not living to eat.
Food noise is no joke. It is like having someone incessantly talking in your ear.
I’ve had two surgeries and they never stopped the noise. I was constantly hungry. Even if I had just eaten. Then suddenly that stopped and it was liberating.
Thank you for sharing your experience. Most of us have no idea the battles that some folks are waging and it’s easy to pat ourselves on the back and fake ourselves out into thinking that our good fortune is due to some super human discipline when in more than a few instances it’s just the luck of the genetic draw. I’ve heard from several folks that have had a life changing experience like yours and I’m so happy that it’s making a difference. Nice job!
Thanks for reading, Jim. I read yesterday that 10% of the population are now on them, and 50% of the population are interested. Plus, new studies around their success with addiction issues are looking really promising.
I know my initial reaction was skepticism but I’ve seen it make some big differences for folks. I think it’s essential that it be accompanied by really dialing in protein intake and resistance training to avoid loosing too much muscle mass
On one side, you have the woke crowds and leaders that despite their age and experience, still push for free education and universal healthcare. Bernie never seemed to learn that nothing in this world is free, and that massive bureaucracies tend to be corrupt and inefficient. To me, it’s disheartening that a socialist like him can still draw crowds of tens of thousands.
On the other side, the MAGA crowd seems proudly ignorant and openly anti-intellectual. Critical thinking? That’s fake news.
This is proving to be an even harder challenge than we anticipated, and we certainly took Project 2025 seriously. But we’re finding our legs and the growing demonstrations will ultimately create the kind of resistance that gives pause. We have to accelerate our efforts and expand the scope of the protest. Make Congress feel real pain. Fo…
