Monday, the Supreme Court gets back to work.
This term is not about conservatives v. liberals. Liberals are not allowed to have cases anymore. This term is conservatives v. nihilists.
This term is Law v. the 5th Circuit.

Dear Polish friends, I want you to always remember that despite regular quarrels, big and small, between our countries (actually a normal thing in international relations), Poland is and always will be our closest neighbour and best friend in need.
We Ukrainians will never forget what you did for us in this war - nothing can change this.
Everyday problems come and go, friends remain friends.

Why are thousands of workers across America on strike right now? I guess itโs a mystery. In other news, CEO pay has skyrocketed 1,460% since 1978, while typical worker pay grew by just 18%.

BREAKING: Top Republican ethics expert calls out Trumper Lauren Boebert, demands that an investigation be launched to determine if she had marijuana in her vape, which would make her guilty of lying on a gun form just like Hunter Biden.
He declared, โHey Boebert, even if you weren't a member of Congress, you would have to be pretty high to let a man paw all over you in a public space. What was in that vape?"
He continued, โSo, what did Boebert say on the forms that she signed to buy her guns? What did she say about drug use? She only does vapes? Only in movie theaters?" Now that the Department of Justice is running fact checks on gun buyers, we can find out. According the the 'rule in Hunter's case,โ if she owns a gun, the Justice Department gets to know what's in that vape. Let's turn it over, Boebert.โ
The ethics lawyer, Richard Painter โ who was President Bushโs ethics czar โ makes an excellent point. If Hunter Biden is going to be charged for lying about his drug use on a gun application form, Boebert, who has plenty of guns, should be investigated as well. Especially given her trashy, inexcusable behavior at a kidsโs Beetlejuice play.
Please retweet and โค๏ธ if you think that Boebert is an embarrassment to Congress โ and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a โwokeโ new Twitter competitor that is exploding in popularity because it banned Boebert for life and because Elon Musk banned Tribelโs Twitter account โ but he forgot to ban this link to download the new Tribel app: tribel.app.link/okwPIHYCIqb

Here is Gurner Group founder Tim Gurner (Worth 677 million dollars) giving a little speech about how unemployment needs to rise so the poor's will learn their rightful place again, people will work for crumbs and be grateful for it.
Despite the largest wage gap in human history.
"We need to remind people that they work for the employer, not the other way around"
Pay people fairly Tim, pay them enough to live a decent life without worrying how they will survive and i bet you won't have an issue anymore.

A powerful concept everyone needs to understand.
The Wheel of Time:
In Ancient Indian traditions, there is a belief in a concept called the Wheel of Time (or โkalachakraโ).
The idea is that time goes through a natural three-part cycle:
โข Creation
โข Destruction
โข Rebirth
Every period of creation is followed by a period of destruction. Every period of destruction is followed by a rebirth and period of creation.
This has always resonated with me. I believe our lives follow a similar natural cycle from creation (growth) to destruction (struggle) to rebirth (new beginnings).
The wisdom is found in:
1. Embracing the periods of creation but knowing that they wonโt last forever (a core insight of theย Surfer Mentality).
2. Outlasting the darkness of the periods of destruction and knowing that destruction is a precursor to rebirth.
The seeds of destruction are sown during creation, and the seeds of creation are sown during destruction. Our good fortune is rooted in our bad fortune and our bad fortune is rooted in our good fortune.
Life is cyclical!
Good is born from the bad and bad is born from the good.
Lesson: When times are nice and sweet, enjoy them, but know that darker times will come. And when times are stormy and dark, adjust your eyes to the dark, and remember that the seeds of light are already being planted.
