Jim Carrey Just Explained Depression Better Than Most Therapists
Jim Carrey: “Sadness is just from happenstance, whatever happens to you or doesn’t happen to you.”
“Depression is your body saying, ‘I don’t want to be this character anymore.’”
“You don’t want to carry this persona that you’ve created for the world.”
“I heard Jeff Foster talk about depression as ‘deep rest.’”
“Your body needs to be depressed. It needs deep rest from the character you’ve been trying to play.”
“Sometimes, what feels like breaking down can be a signal that something in your life needs attention.”

If you listen to Cain, he will tell you that righteous Abel was the problem.
If you listen to Potiphar’s wife, she will tell you that righteous Joseph was the wicked man.
If you listen to Pharaoh, he will tell you that Moses was an enemy of the state.
If you listen to Saul, he will tell you that loyal David was a traitor.
If you listen to Haman, he will convince you that Mordecai was a dangerous enemy.
If you listen to Ahab and Jezebel, they will tell you that Elijah, the prophet of God, was the troublemaker.
If you listen to the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, they will tell you that the sinless Jesus was a blasphemer.
If you listen to Judas Iscariot, he will find a way to justify betrayal.
If you listen to Pontius Pilate, he will wash his hands while Truth stands directly in front of him.
And if you listen to the world, do not be surprised when it calls righteousness evil and evil good.
My friends, listen carefully: a lie does NOT become Truth simply because it is repeated loudly, confidently, or by powerful people.
Be careful what you hear.
Be careful whom you believe.
Be careful whom you follow.
Test everything by the Word of God.
The world may condemn you for standing for Biblical Truth but the only verdict that ultimately matters is His!!!
Stand firm. Stand faithful. And above all, listen to Jesus.

Louisiana just passed a law requiring restaurants to tell customers when their food is cooked in seed oils.
Senate Bill 14 covers canola, corn, soybean, and sunflower oil, with the disclosure taking effect in 2028.
Kitchens using butter or tallow do not have to say a word.
The science on seed oils is still contested, but the case for telling customers what is actually in their food is not.
Localize helps you know your food.

"Golden" is so hard to sing that the women who recorded it lowered it two keys the first time they performed it live on Fallon.
The song runs from C3 to A5. Three full octaves. And the A5 at the top of the chorus has to come out in full chest voice, a note usually reserved for trained operatic sopranos.
The low end is the trap nobody notices. Those verses sit around C3, which is below where most female voices produce any real tone. Drop the key to make the high notes reachable and the bottom of the song disappears entirely. There's no comfortable version.
That happened because it was written for a cartoon. EJAE has said the production team asked for big high notes and she wrote them freely, assuming she'd never be the one singing it. Then the director heard her demo and cast her as the voice of Rumi.
She built a vocal Everest for an animated character and got assigned to climb it herself.
Which explains why this became the most requested Kellyoke ever. A song that humbles nearly every professional who attempts it, handed to the one daytime host who won her career in a live singing competition.

🦔Pflugerville, Texas just killed its Flock Safety contract unanimously after a resident filed a public records request and found 459 outside law enforcement agencies had run 1.6 million searches on the city's 28 cameras in six months. Local police ran 5,078. That's 315 outside searches for every one by Pflugerville PD. The city had told residents nationwide data sharing was turned off. The city manager ordered the lenses physically covered before the council even voted. Pflugerville joins 56 municipalities that have cut ties with Flock in 2026.
My Take
One resident with a public records form did what the city, the police department, and Flock either couldn't or didn't want to do. That's how thin the oversight was on a system searching 1.6 million plates. Nobody was auditing this. Nobody was checking whether the assurances they gave residents were true. It took a guy filing paperwork to find out.
56 cities have walked away from Flock this year and I think that number accelerates once other communities realize they can file the same request. Flock has $500 million in VC money and contracts in 4,000 cities, and civil liberties groups say under 1% of scanned plates ever connect to a crime. Pflugerville's police chief looked at his own data and wouldn't recommend keeping the contract. Every city still running these cameras is one records request away from finding out what their own ratio looks like, and most of them haven't asked yet.

Apparently concert venues are having a hard time getting Millennials to fill the seats. Well, hello. Millennial here. I think I can help.
DEAR CONCERT VENUES:
🎟️ Just tell me what the ticket costs. I do not want to select a $79 ticket and discover at checkout that it is actually $146 because of a facility fee, service fee, processing fee, and a fee for having successfully paid the other fees.
📱 Stop making ticket buying a military operation. I should not need three apps, a verified fan code, a presale password from a credit card I don’t own, and 11:00 AM availability on a Tuesday to buy two seats.
💺 Assigned seats. We did our time standing shoulder-to-shoulder at shows in 2008. Some of us have mortgages now. Some of us have sciatica.
🕖 Start earlier. A 7 PM show is not embarrassing. In fact, I would like to formally recognize whoever invented the 7 PM show.
⏰ And tell us the actual times. “Doors at 7” is not useful information if the opener starts at 8:15 and the person I came to see appears at 10:07.
🚗 Parking instructions written for a normal person. Tell me which garage to use, what it costs, and whether I will spend 55 minutes trying to leave it afterward. I am willing to pay $20 for certainty.
🍺 I will buy your $14 beer. I have accepted this. But if I miss three songs waiting for it, you have broken the social contract.
🚽 Enough bathrooms. We are in our 30s and 40s. Half of us have had children. This is now infrastructure.
🔉 It can still be loud. We are Millennials, not the Greatest Generation. But some of us are bringing earplugs now and we are no longer ashamed of it.
DEAR ARTISTS:
⏰ Please go on roughly when you said you would. We have babysitters. The babysitter has an end time. This is now a logistics problem involving several adults.
🎤 Play the songs from 2004–2014. You know which ones. We know which ones. Nobody needs to pretend otherwise.
🎶 Play some new stuff. Absolutely. We support your continued artistic development. But there is a point in the evening when you need to play the song that was on our iPod Nano while we drove to high school.
📵 You can tell us to put our phones away. We secretly want someone to make us do this anyway.
🪑 An intermission would not offend us. We can use the bathroom, answer the babysitter, check whether the dog has destroyed anything, and look at Zillow for eight minutes.
And please understand: Millennials still like concerts.
We have disposable income now. We are nostalgic. We will absolutely spend irresponsible amounts of money to hear a band we first discovered on LimeWire.
But we also have jobs, children, dogs, mortgages, lower-back problems, and a very clear memory of when concert tickets cost $35.
You want Millennials back?
Make it easy to buy the ticket. Tell us when the show actually starts. Give us somewhere to sit. Play the song from 2007.
We’ll be there.
We just need to be home by 11.

Ground beef is expensive because the U.S. cattle herd is the smallest it has been in roughly 75 years.
Why is the herd so small?
The shortage developed during the Biden administration as years of drought forced ranchers to cull cows, while high feed and input costs made matters worse.
The cattle cycle takes years to reverse.
And no, cattle don’t magically appear because people are angry about grocery prices.
Cattle take 18–24 months just to reach slaughter weight. Rebuilding the breeding herd takes even longer.
So what did Trump do?
He announced a 90-day deal allowing up to 300,000 metric tons of ground beef into the U.S. with no out-of-quota tariffs and a commitment to sell it 25% BELOW current market prices.
The goal?
Give working families some relief at the grocery store NOW while American ranchers rebuild the herd.
A temporary increase in supply to help lower the price of one of the most expensive grocery staples without permanently undercutting U.S. cattle producers.
That’s called a practical solution.
But sure, keep complaining about literally everything.
God forbid anyone acknowledge a concrete step that could actually LOWER food prices.
A simple “thank you” would do.
Good grief.

I’m not here to tell you what to believe. I’m just going to lay out the numbers I’ve decoded, and you can sit with them and think for yourself 🧐
The Sumerian King List. The Mayan Calendar. Two completely separate cultures, different continents, different number systems, thousands of miles apart.
And they’re both tracking the EXACT SAME cosmic clock.
📊 THE SUMERIAN KING LIST — WHAT MY DECODER SHOWS
Before the “flood swept over,” the list records 8 names with these “reign lengths”:
• Alulim: 28,800 years
• Alalgar: 36,000 years
• En‑men‑lu‑ana: 43,200 years
• En‑men‑gal‑ana: 28,800 years
• Dumuzi: 36,000 years
• En‑sipa‑zi‑ana: 28,800 years
• En‑men‑dur‑ana: 21,000 years
• Ubara‑Tutu: 18,600 years
Mainstream says: “Ridiculous myth. No one lives that long.”
My decoder says something different:
These aren’t individual human kings with impossible lifespans. These are the Watchers. The lineage of knowledge keepers. The names represent the office, the post, the lineage of those who kept watch over the cycles generation after generation.
And the numbers attached to each name? They’re not how long a guy lived. They’re ASTRONOMICAL MARKERS — tracking how many degrees the sky shifted during that particular segment of the cosmic cycle.
🔑 THE KEY NUMBER NO ONE TALKS ABOUT: 72
Basic astronomy fact: Earth’s axis wobbles 1 degree every 72 years. This is the precession of the equinoxes.
Now divide those “impossible” Sumerian numbers by 72:
• 28,800 ÷ 72 = 400 degrees of precession
• 36,000 ÷ 72 = 500 degrees
• 43,200 ÷ 72 = 600 degrees
These aren’t random. They’re clean, exact multiples of the precession constant.
The Sumerians weren’t writing about fantasy kings. They were encoding the work of the Watchers — the ones who tracked the sky, maintained the records, and passed the knowledge down.
🌙 THE MAYAN CALENDAR — SAME CLOCK, DIFFERENT DIAL
Half a world away, the Mayans were tracking the same wobble using a completely different number system:
• 1 Mayan Great Cycle (13 baktuns) = 5,125.36 years
• 5 Great Cycles = 25,626.8 years
• Astronomical full precession cycle = ~25,770 years
Difference: 143 years. Over 26,000 years. That’s less than 0.6% “error.”
Half‑cycle turning point:
• Mayan 2.5 Great Cycles = 12,813 years
• Astronomical half‑precession = ~12,885 years
Again — almost dead on.
🌊 AND THEN — THE FLOOD MARKER
The Sumerian list builds up through these encoded precession segments… and then at the boundary, it says:
“Then the flood swept over.”
And the Mayan Calendar marks cycle turning points — the “end dates” that weren’t apocalypse predictions, but markers on the cosmic clock.
Two cultures. Same pattern. Same turning points. Same system of Watchers keeping track.
I’m not saying I’ve got all the answers. I’m saying the pattern is there. The numbers line up too cleanly to be coincidence.
If two completely separate civilizations on opposite sides of the planet both encoded the same astronomical cycle into their most sacred texts and calendars… and both left records of Watchers who kept track… maybe we should be paying attention to what else they were trying to pass on.
Make of it what you will. But I’d suggest sitting down with the numbers and having a proper think.

Everyone agrees the twice-a-year clock change is ridiculous.
But if we’re making one time permanent, why choose the one that most sleep and circadian experts don’t recommend?
Permanent standard time aligns better with our biology because morning sunlight is what sets our internal clocks. Permanent Daylight Saving Time means darker winter mornings, later body clocks, and more circadian disruption. This would be another disaster for American health. It’s probably too late to stop this but switch this to permanent Standard time instead!!!!

Dear @DukesMayonnaise
Your classic Real Mayonnaise lists soybean oil as the very first ingredient. While I understand it’s been part of the formula for a long time, a growing number of health-conscious consumers are actively avoiding highly processed seed oils (soybean, canola, sunflower, etc.) due to concerns about their high omega-6 content, processing methods and potential inflammatory effects.
Not including sugar in your recipe is great but including seed oils is still a deal-breaker.
Many of us have switched to mayonnaise made with avocado oil, olive oil or other more traditional fats and if you wish appeal to us, you should develop a product that is seed oil free.
There is so much untapped potential in the seed oil free market and many of us look forward to you putting your hat in the ring.
