A Marvelous Musical Instrument Powered by 2,000 Marbles Will Amaze You!

The internet saw a mom walking back to her seat at a Giants game carrying her baby, a backpack AND food while her husband sat there eating. And whewww… they had that man’s entire character figured out within SECONDS. People called him lazy. A deadbeat. Said she was basically parenting alone. Some were literally telling this woman to LEAVE HER HUSBAND. There was just one problem… They couldn’t hear what was happening. And they had absolutely no idea WHY this family was at that baseball game in the first place. The mom, Erika Alvarez, eventually spoke out because the backlash toward her husband Ramses had gotten so bad. And the context changes EVERYTHING. Before she ever left their seats, Ramses had offered to take their baby. Erika chose to keep the baby with her because it was chilly and having her in the carrier helped keep her warm. While Erika was already up, SHE texted her husband a picture of the food menu and offered to grab something for him since she was passing it anyway. Then she came back carrying everything. That’s the moment the cameras caught. What they DIDN’T capture was Ramses clearing her seat when she returned, offering to let her eat first, offering to take things from her and even offering to share/feed her some of his sandwich. She told him to eat. Because she’d already eaten before the game… and he hadn’t had a full meal that day. But there’s another piece nobody watching that tiny clip could’ve possibly known. Ramses was grieving the recent death of a close longtime friend who had played baseball. According to Erika, there hadn’t been a funeral or memorial, so SHE suggested they go to a Giants game. She wanted her husband to sit down, watch baseball, eat some stadium food and have a moment to remember his friend. She was taking care of him. Yet the internet saw her carrying a few things for a few seconds and decided he was a terrible husband who expected his wife to do everything. And apparently it went WAY beyond some snarky comments. Erika said strangers found their personal information, and Ramses even received messages telling him to kill himself. Over. A. Video. Clip. Listen, I’m ALL FOR calling out men who sit comfortably while their wives carry the baby, the diaper bag, the food, the mental load and everything else. 😂 But this is such a perfect example of something social media has made us forget: A camera can show you exactly what happened in a moment and STILL not show you the truth of the situation. We saw her hands were full. We couldn’t hear him offering to help. We couldn’t hear her telling him to eat. We couldn’t see the conversations they’d already had. And we definitely couldn’t see the grief that man was carrying while his wife was quietly trying to take care of him. Sometimes we’re not missing a little context. We’re missing the entire damn story. ~Laydee Jane, FB

Stephen A. Smith admits he can’t wrap his head around “how the hell” the Clintons and Obamas left office worth upwards of $100,000,000 after “serving” the American people. “Clinton was a lawyer in Arkansas, grew up poor, relatively broke. How the hell he and the Clinton Foundation are worth hundreds of millions of dollars beats me.” “Barack Obama was a community organizer who became the President of the United States. And last time I checked, that salary ain’t over $450,000.” “How the hell you depart from office, [together] you worth over $200 million?” Clintons’ net worth before office: ~$1,300,000 Clintons’ net worth today: ~$120,000,000 Obamas’ net worth before office: ~$1,300,000 Obamas’ net worth today: ~$70,000,000

🚨 WOW. Somali "childcare worker" in California erupts in PANIC MODE, yells in Somali at Nick Shirley Shirley says he is just following California state data, and they ALL happen to be Somali "You a TROUBLED MAN!! Let me call 911" SHIRLEY: "We just want to know where the children are." "It says there's 14 children enrolled here." *DOOR SLAMS SHUT* It's fraud. They make it obvious. And Newsom's California lets it run RAMPANT! FOLLOW ME FOR MORE NEWS DROPS!

When an earthquake hits and the electrical grid dies, the world learns what a country is really made of. In New Orleans during Katrina, stores were shot open. In New York during blackouts, pharmacies were looted clean. When water supplies run low, bottled water prices jump to twenty dollars. Now look at Japan when the ground tears open. The power fails. The cash registers die. The automatic sliding doors freeze shut. Outside, freezing rain or snow is falling. The entire town is plunged into absolute blackness. The twenty-year-old convenience store clerk doesn't run away. He pulls the glass doors open with his bare hands. He straps a small LED flashlight around his forehead. He walks out into the sub-zero chill and sets up a small folding table. Soon, two hundred shivering residents form a line down the sidewalk. No screaming. No pushing. No frantic mob rushing the aisles. They stand in complete silence, one behind the other. The clerk has written on a piece of cardboard: "Two rice balls and one bottle of water per person. We want everyone to eat tonight." The store has zero electricity to scan barcodes. So the clerk punches the numbers into a battery-powered calculator by hand. He doesn't charge ten dollars for water. He doesn't double the price of bread. He sells every item at the exact normal retail price: 108 yen. When people reach into their pockets and pull out soaked bills, the clerk counts out exact metal change with his frozen fingers. And watch what the customers do: Many hand him a 500-yen coin, take their single bottle of water, and say: "Keep the rest for the next person who doesn't have cash." They leave. The store is not trashed. Not a single shelf is looted. Civilization is not your stock market. It is not your military budget. Civilization is what happens in a pitch-black parking lot when the power is cut, and nobody forgets who they are.

TEXAS SENATE RACE: James Talarico (CIS) missed 842 votes in the House. He didn’t show up to vote on Jocelyn's Law, the bail law named for Jocelyn Nungaray, 12, raped and murdered in Houston by Venezuelan nationals.

Hey everyone botching about diesel prices - here's the reason. Zelensky, not what's going on with Iran. And definitely not Trump. Zelensky is very intentionally hitting targets that harm the US and Europe instead of infrastructure like power plants, which would more directly harm Russians. Think about why that might be.

Every day, new evidence drops showing noncitizens on voter rolls. That’s exactly why I introduced the SAVE Act two years ago. American elections belong to American citizens. That principle is worth fighting for… to the very end.

OMG @SportsCenter how the hell can you call this entertainment? These clowns just spent 15min talking about the same thing and all they did was rearrange the words. We need a new competition I'll name "The Babblathon" where Mike G. and Stephen A. start out running on and on about something and see which one chokes first. Better set aside your morning because they do it every day.

Talarico is no moderate. He’s pushed defund police, open border, and gender mutilation agendas. He would be disastrous not just for Texas, but for the entire country if elected.

Why aren’t Angelenos more pissed off? During the city’s last mayoral election, there was a heated debate about what Los Angeles should be. Now, @AustynJeffs says, nobody seems to care.

Cornyn is displaying deep narcissism, apparently unable to cope with the rejection of losing his Senate seat. His revenge tactic is to shockingly support a far left extremist. Talarico is a blasphemous liar who uses and abuses holy scripture, denigrates “white” Americans, supports chemical castration and butchery of children, all to gain political power. Disgraceful.

Some people love to point out race when a black person does something negative, so let’s keep the same energy when they do something positive. This black man was the lone juror who held the line and voted to find Lindsay Clancy guilty. Love Beyond Color

Sitting down? All ruled against the duly elected POTUS on immigration… Judge Amir Ali: Canadian Citizen Judge Indira Talwani: Anchor Baby Judge Sparkle Sooknanan: Trinidadian and Tobagonian Citizen Judge Maame Ewusi-Mensah Frimpong: Anchor Baby The Judiciary is a disaster.

People who stir shit until it smells then complain about the smell are not victims.

The future’s best actress. 😂

Only @stephenasmith could take 10 min to say "I knew that was going to happen". @espn is full of garbage filler.
