I love anything Syracuse and positivity. Not here to fight or for drama though occasional respectful disagreement is okay.

@seankeeley.bsky.social saw this and thought of you. A few bagels shoutouts later in the video from Cuse lax players. www.facebook.com/share/r/1GBE...
@seankeeley.bsky.social just saw a clip of a Seattle Mariners fan catching a baseball in a bread bowl. Can you duplicate that but with a bagel?

I’m glad they were able to help. I’ve tried applying that to someone I love but unfortunately was unable to revive him and that memory still plays in my head daily.
EMT instructor Karl Arps’s CPR lesson quickly got real when he lost consciousness. Students took turns doing chest compressions and called 911. By the time paramedics arrived, Arps had regained a pulse. https://wapo.st/4umURDQ
I’m sure TruthSocial is a beacon for voices of all sorts as well.
Fox News: "If you only watch one side or you only watch the other, you were doing great harm to yourself by not exposing yourself to more viewpoints. Well, take that and multiply it by a thousand. You know, that's what targeted algorithms do on platforms like Bluesky..." This whole clip is amazing.

In 1992, I went off to basic training. One of my first memories other than the cattle car delivering me there and being measured for my clothing was being lined up and taking multiple shots. Once I was almost deployed to Iraq and on my way to getting my shots, they pulled me & sent someone else.
More U.S. troops could soon be suffering from influenza after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced that the flu vaccine was no longer mandatory for the armed forces.
I like Pepsi products better anyway 😂
“The infamous Koch brothers have bankrolled climate deniers, propped up polluting industries, and even tried to turn the black community pro-fossil fuel. But, as a recent New York Times story shows, the billionaire conservatives have been steadily exerting pressure against public transit as well.”

I’m not going to lie, as expensive as things are here, you’d at least think they’d address some of the more serious potholes at least especially since there is already so much construction…why not take care of them too?

Praying Barry is okay. In the last couple years, I’ve seen Billy Joel cancel for health reasons, 3 Doors Down end their tour (and their lead singer eventually passed) and now Barry… three of my favorites that if I had the money and the time I’d likely go see live.

As a teenager, Jim Boone was sexually assaulted by a priest. Almost 60 years later, he believes the majority of people who endured similar trauma still carry that suffering alone - and he offers an open invitation to an event led by survivors this weekend at Le Moyne:

Rand Paul: "Really, the debate now should be, is a 47 year old conflict an imminent threat? Were there changes in their nuclear program that made this an imminent threat? And I don't think the evidence is there that this was an imminent threat that would allow the president to go to war on his own."
When people ask me why I care so much, it’s because I want a world where you & my 3 other grandkids can be loved and accepted. When people me why I share content with you, it’s because I want them to see a world where hating someone for skin color means missing out on loving special people like you.
