Aroldis Chapman gives up a bomb to send the Astros to the World Series, & that domestic abuse perpetrating scuzzbucket has the unmitigated gall to react like he just saw Kevin McCallister waltz through his hotel lobby with a bag of cash. I’m sick.

I see horror stories on here about having awful advisors. I cannot overstate how uplifting it is to have a supportive, accessible advisor. My absolute best advice -- apply to the person first and the program second. #AcademicTwitter #phdchat @AcademicChatter @PhDVoice

Call out/cancel culture is insidious because it makes the entire act transactional. It conflates educating an ignorant person in a single moment with publicly humiliating someone for brownie points/prestige from the "good side" in perpetuity. Where is the growth in that?

Help your friends get off drugs, cut back drinking, stop smoking cigs, lose weight, exercise, express themselves, talk through what they’re scared about, work through what they’re dealing with, talk less shit, do more, laugh more, & love more. We need each other’s help to survive

He inspired Oladipo to transform and Paul George is playing the best and most consistent ball of his life. I can't stand when Russ's intensity gets dismissed so easily. That's one way to elevate your teammates and he leads by example.

@big_business_ Blake Griffin and his brother Taylor were a sight to see in high school. They put everyone in Oklahoma on notice how big the gap was to get to the league. Alley oops to each other for breakfast, lunch, and dinner over 2A High School kids from towns called Hobart and Okemah.

5 weeks after this, KD came to our Dom Kennedy show. Afterwards, he had some of us over to his new studio. As the night ended, Kevin made sure that my friend & I each grabbed a Rucker (Route) 66 on the way out. He supported us, welcomed us into his home, & treated us like peers.

@KOCOAbigail I think leaders and government officials need to be prepared to go beyond the scope of their jobs just like every health care worker, grocer, and other “essential business” employee is doing. It’s time to step up, not step away.

Your favorite local establishment owners are waking up at 7:30am on a Saturday to post things on Facebook like “only the uneducated are looting” for them to go and delete it hours later + beg for your patronage that evening like nothing happened.

@JonathanTjarks @ringer Hi Jonathan. My best friend died in December, & his daughter turns 4 in March. I’ve been struggling with how to ensure that she knows her daddy & me after moving 1600 mi away. Your story deeply moved me & reaffirmed that yearning to be in her life. I wish you & your son the best

A Starbucks barista said I was buff and my psychology professor said she had a vision of me as an angel on earth. I’ve come nowhere close to being referred to either of those things before. Both probably aren’t true, but I’m having myself a Friday over here 💁🏼‍♀️

If you don’t know where to start with self-improvement, monitor these two simple things: - water intake - amount of sleep Does it solve everything? Hell no. But it’s a much bigger start than you might believe + it starts putting the pieces together to enhance your discipline.

I truly miss playing NCAA football only to rename all of the players with a mix of me, my brother & friends’ names, & favorite rappers. Rick Ross, Birdman, Fat Joe, E40, & Twista were an amazingly cohesive offensive line. Ludacris was the best slot receiver in OU history.

LeBron was: On national TV since 16. Crowned as the next Jordan before 18. Scrutinized so much that Skip Bayless ate for a decade off him alone. LeBron has: Lived up to that unrealistic hype. Become an A+ all around human. Not a scandal to his name. LeBron is one of a kind.

Saturday, I had the best day of my life when I married the woman I love. Wednesday, I had the worst day of my life when my father unexpectedly died. Tell your loved ones you love them or whatever it is that makes you feel close, but do it, and do it often. You just never know.

Re: Mac In 2010 I started a music blog with my brother & some friends. People liked what we posted & asked for our help booking a frat show. It showed me a passion I didn’t know I had until then, but I wasn’t sure where to start after helping them out.

Ever take half a second and think about everyone you've ever been close to in life that you've drifted apart from? And just how intensely strong you thought and felt those relationships were but can't remember your last conversation? Life's crazy man. Enjoy every second of it.
