I agree with this, although I did love this later scene, which to me was the only one in the series that showed they truly cared about each other.

Agree with @sarasidnerCNN. Still mad @ Scott Glenn for stealing the $ but love him just the same. #UrbanCowboy & #WhiteLotus 4ever.

How it feels to fight cancer on your strongest day.
The most "Main Character Energy" I've ever seen in my life.

Simone Biles taught a valuable lesson at the Olympics: Overcoming adversity takes time. Resilience is not about how quickly you bounce back—it’s about how fully you recover. You can’t judge people’s strength when they fall. Their fortitude is visible when they rise again.

I & about a billion people agree with you. Newsweek (not gonna tag) needs to calm down.

This would have been unthinkable before @CaitlinClark22 arrived at Iowa and changed everything. This isn’t just a sports story. This is an American cultural story. It’s about Title IX and what happens when a nation gives girls and women a chance to play sports too.
For the first time in history, the NCAA women's basketball title game drew more viewers than the men's.

.@fg_life, please help. I've been trying to resolve a pension issue for my elderly mother for months and have gotten nowhere with customer service. The situation has become urgent & I don't know where else to turn.

Saw your announcement live and am pulling for you. I relate to your tweet. 5/6 rounds of chemo done & learning to slay on fake brows & lashes. You got this!

Thought of you when I saw Goose Island has a special can for finishers this year. My 312 @ the finish line was the best beer I've ever had. Soak it all up & enjoy the prep, race, and glory of what you've already done!
