Best advice I received:

If you overthink, Write.

If you underthink, Read.

and that is all.

It’s about damn time. AOC is a hero. She’s one of the best out there, fighting daily against Trump’s fascist bullshit.

My father always told me:

"If you want to go for a run, go for a run, don't look for company.

Sooner or later, on your fifth run or your twentieth, like-minded people will find you themselves."

And only recently have I realised that this principle works everywhere.

sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.

Just FYI because evidently Fox or OAN or whatever is pushing the lie that America accepted the Statue of Liberty and that’s equivalent to the plane.

Congress VOTED to approve receiving the statue. So congress should vote on the jet

Be bored more often.

Go for long walks. Meditate. Journal your thoughts. Read new books. Spend time alone without devices. You would get to understand yourself a lot much better. Your brain gets the best ideas when it is left to wander.

In those quiet moments, you'll uncover clarity and inspiration that can't be found in constant stimulation.

When Knowing His Name Is Enough

We spend years chasing the hand of God—petitioning for provision, calling for clarity, yearning for the next breakthrough. But something shifts when we stop asking what He can do, and start desiring who He truly is.

The soul, weary of striving, begins to awaken when it whispers His name—not as a formula, but…

We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾‍♀️.

Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!

We’ve turned on paid subscriptions—but nothing’s changing for our readers. All of our content, including local news, political coverage, and deeper investigations will stay 100% free to read. Always.

We’re growing. That means we’ll be branching out into national stories, longform investigations, myths, legends, conspiracy breakdowns, and commentary that goes beyond Pennsylvania—but you won’t need to pay to access any of it.

Paid subscriptions are just a way to support …

Don't mess with librarians! The staff the Library of Congress refused to let DOJ staffers sent by the new acting librarian Todd Blanche to enter the building! They called the Capital Police and their general counsel. They said they recognize the deputy librarian as being in power until they hear otherwise from Congress! 🔥🔥🔥

Go on more walks. Walk for no reason. Walk to solve a problem. Walk to blow off steam. Walk to get outside. Walk to listen, read, and learn. Walk to escape distractions. Walk to improve your health. Walk to think. A simple walking habit can change absolutely everything.

I’ve run a small construction company for years so I deal with many young adults that are just out of high school. Some are construction management college students. I hired one about a month ago because he wanted to make some dough during the summer. For the past two weeks he has what they call ghosted the job. This means you disappear, no show no call. But then he calls me and wants to come back. My wife made a comment to not take him back to teach him a lesson. Why do I think this would be r…

As some have pointed out, it is more difficult now than it used to be for a young person to make it in the building trades, but the opportunities are still there for someone who is willing to work and learn. The societal changes have been going on for more than a half century. I remember working with men who had either run away or been thrown out of the house at the age of 12 or 13. Aside from being a noted 1841 essay, Self-Reliance does not seem to have much value or attraction anymore.

James Goodrich's avatar

skptc, for nearly forty years I have taught people this trade. One of my biggest accomplishments you may think is putting a building or a house together, but it is first teaching someone to respect a customers property, and second is seeing a person move on and provide for themselves or their family. I’m sure you know the beauty of learning a trade is you will always be able to feed yourself or fall back on it if need be.

It's good to have more than one skill set. My brother was working out of Laborer's Local #270 on the Kaiser-Permanente cement plant construction in 1979 and I needed a job that summer. When he told them that he had an identical twin brother, I was hired. After several weeks I was asked to join the Carpenters' union and did so. A few weeks after joining Local #1408 my foreman walked up to me looking rather disgruntled and told me to drop my bags and follow him. He took me to the office trailer a…

Took typing in10th grade and paid off many times...particularly when in AF basic. Was stuck at Lackland AFB waiting orders on shutdown because of meningitis epidemic. Orderly room needed runner who could type. Was a lot better sitting in an office rather than endless marching, particularly as was recovering from case of walking ( marching) pneumonia. Yeah. Much better

I must have missed that you were in the Air Force. I have a nephew serving in the Air Force now. I spoke to him last night when I got Dr. Malones post about Biden’s Operation Atlantic Resolve. I put the news on and haven’t heard one word, nothing, on this since.

Out campaigning today.

When I was younger, I didn’t see it—home felt rural, cut off, forgotten. But with every year that passes, I realise just how lucky I was. The hills, the heritage, my family—and the people. You won’t find better anywhere.

And yet these people—the backbone of Britain—are sneered at by the Left. Dismissed as thick, back…
