Billionaire Trump Fan Is SICK Of It – Just Dropped MILLIONS To FINALLY End It!

It's About Time!

A huge Trump supporter recently decided that he is tired of what he's seeing happen in

the country all because of one massive industry who has abused their power.

Now, he's just made a major move to decimate it.

Peter Theil, who is the founder of PayPal, and an openly gay Trump supporter understands

how to make money and is everything liberals hate considering he supports our president

despite his lifestyle.

He's in the perfect position to make the move he just did, considering that Forbes

recently reported that his net worth is around 2.5 billion dollars and is the owner and developer

of seven large companies.

He's using his wealth where it's definitely needed…just like his good friend Donald

Trump has.

It's not about creating divisiveness in the country, like what rich liberals tend

to do, it's about preventing it, which starts with putting one huge group that promoted

hate in this country out of business and it's about time.

Thiel recently teamed up with Charlie Ebersol, the son of longtime NBC Sports executive Dick

Ebersol and director of the 30 for 30 documentaries to form a new league.

According to Patriot Journal, It's safe to say the NFL has had a rough couple of years.

The once beloved league has faced tremendous backlash.

All because it's players have disrespected the flag.

Worse still, the league's owners have refused to demand players stand for the Anthem.

They've even given millions to the players' union, who will spend the cash on social justice

programs.

Pathetic.

(Keep in mind that was your money, if you support the NFL).Now the NFL has another problem:

competition.

A major Trump supporter is throwing millions into a new league.

One that will surely give the NFL a run for its money.

It's also of note that Theil is a Facebook stockholder, one of the originals to buy in,

and is on Facebook's board of directors.

The differences personal and political differences he has with Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg

are apparent.

Given the recent politically-based moves Thiel has mad and the personal data controversy

Facebook is embroiled in having made this private information available to different

groups, including Barack Obama's 2012 campaign, things could get pretty interesting between

these two billionaires.

Sports Illustrated has more on why Theil is making this multi-million dollar move:

Charlie Ebersol, the son of longtime NBC Sports executive Dick Ebersol and director of the

30 for 30 documentary about the original XFL his father created with WWE's Vince McMahon,

announced Tuesday that he plans to launch a football league next February.

The league is called the Alliance of American Football and will feature eight 50-man teams

playing a 10-game schedule that begins on February 9, the Saturday after next year's

Super Bowl.Funding for the league comes from the Peter Thiel-led Founder's Fund, Barstool

Sports investors the Chernin Group, former Vikings pass rusher Jared Allen and others…

The league is hoping to draw talent from the wealth of high-level college players who don't

make the NFL.

Teams will have the right to draft players who played college football in their local

market, similar to the territorial pick system that existed in the early days of the NBA.

You read that right.

The billionaire PayPal co-creator and outspokenly gay Trump supporter is bankrolling an NFL

alternative.

Will wonders never cease?

The new league has already landed a broadcasting deal with CBS, which is well-known for its

sports coverage.

It looks like the AAF is already moving full-steam ahead.

You better believe there will be plenty of college football players eager to prove themselves

in this new league.

Players that were rejected by the NFL—because of severe lack of spots—will get a second

chance.

Considering the league's name—Alliance of American Football—there is a good chance

patriotism will be a focus.

I'm going to guess standing for the Anthem will be in the rule book.

This new league will be able to challenge the NFL, doing all the things the bigger league

refuses to do.

But will it be enough to knock the NFL from the throne?

Maybe in time.

The NFL has suffered in dropped viewers since the Anthem fiasco.

Plus, the XFL is already scheduled to return.

All this new competition will put a serious strain on the NFL.

Hmm, maybe Commissioner Goodell should have dealt with the kneelers when he had a chance!

While it's hard to believe that a new league would thrive, it might give way to pressuring

the NFL to change some of its rules about kneeling for the national anthem.

Theil is a guy that understands business and organizations.

with this team of people, they just might have a chance at dethroning the NFL.

Force Bond II is it still you or is it me? +TLJ - Duration: 4:54.

Why is the Force connecting us?

You and I?

Can you see my surroundings?

You're gonna pay for what you did!

I can't see yours.

Just you.

Darkness rises and light to meet it.

I warned my young apprentice that as he grew stronger, his equal in the Light would rise.

Sir! The droid was spotted heading west. With a girl.

You.

A scavenger.

You have compassion for her.

Let the past die.

I've seen this raw strength only once before...

In Ben Solo.

You need a teacher!

I could show you the ways of the Force!

You went straight into the dark.

It's calling me!

Resist it, Rey!

That burn inside you,

that anger.

Don't be afraid, I feel it too.

This is something else.

You imagine an ocean.

I see it...

I see the island.

Kill it, if you have to.

And you didn't even try to stop yourself.

That's the only way to become what you were meant to be.

You know I can take whatever I want.

You're so lonely.

So afraid to leave.

It's time to let old things die.

Snoke..., Skywalker,

The Sith, the Jedi...

Let it all die.

Rey...

I want you to join me.

I'd never felt so alone.

You're not alone.

Neither are you.

Ben...

When we touched hands I saw your future.

You'll turn.

I saw something too.

Ben!

Because of what I saw I know when the moment comes you'll be the one to turn.

You'll stand with me.

Q&A – Is there a non-invasive privet? - Duration: 2:27.

Japanese privet is invasive.

Is there another kind that's

okay to use?

- When we talk about the genus Ligustrum, pretty much all of 'em are invasive.

Some much, much worse than others and it

depends, I guess, on the part of the country as well.

- [Man] The Chinese privet, of course we know.

- Yeah, yeah, even the glossy privet, the lucidum, that used to be one that they'd recommend

besides the Chinese.

That's the

one with the big shiny leaves, you know, it has the big pretty white flowers.

Yeah, but that thing now is getting, in

Florida and Texas, I think, has it on their invasive list.

So privets can be a little bit go crazy, but they've come up,

they're very popular and they're still selling 'em even though they're kind of invasive because

people want 'em.

They do

well.

Nothing will kill 'em.

They flower.

They smell good.

So North Carolina is doing some research to try to come up with

some privet cultivars that do not set seed.

Just don't set any seed at all and the first one that they released was in 2015

called golden ticket.

It's got this really pretty golden yellow foliage and it's supposed to stay under six

feet and it does

flower and I saw it for the first time in the Savannah University of Georgia Botanical

Gardens and the director there, we

were going on a tour, and he said oh Lea, have you seen this new privet?

And I said, no, I said what's the big deal with

this privet?

He said, well it doesn't set seed.

I said, just wait.

You know, because you don't really know.

I hope they're

right and I'm sure North Carolina tested it for years and years and years, hopefully,

but there's been other cultivars that have come out that were supposed to be seedless

and they turned out they weren't.

After years of production in the landscape, or growing in the landscape

So, I'm hoping this one will be the one.

For those of you who like privet, maybe look for this new one.

😃IS THE GALACTIC EMPIRE ACTUALLY GOOD?😃 (or is it not?) - Duration: 17:18.

Greetings, Star Travellers, this is Man in Ushanka.

The scenario for this video was written in collaboration with my Kazakh friend, Abz Lore,

the link to his channel in Russian is in the description.

Thanks, mate.

And yes, today I will also try to use my newly acquired accent to try to sound more authentic,

more Tarkin-ish.

Ok. let's go.

So, in the recent time I've noticed a tendency to consider the First Galactic Empire to be

worse than the Old Repbulic in every aspect possible.

In my opinion, such a position is just a result of the superficial level of knowledge of the

Star Wars lore, by taking only films, TV series, and maybe gameplay from a game or two into

account..

Of course, there can be no doubt that the events described in the noted works of art

are canon, but one should never forget that they narrate only from one point of view.

And, as well as we cannot judge about the Second World War only by films, one should

never judge the Galactic Empire according to the stereotypes formed after consuming

the products of a mass genre.

It is not a surprise that after watching only eight episodes of the film and some episodes

of the Clone Wars TV series, a not very attentive viewer can form an opinion in which he or

she might consider the Empire to be an absolute and brainless form of evil and the Republic

to be the embodiment of a pure good.

However, if we would dive a bit deeper, by, for example, reading books, we can be sure

that there are some works that show the Galactic Empire in the good light and depict its enemies

in the bad one.

The Universe of Star Wars, especially in the old canon, now called the legends, is not

black and white.

It is a colored one, just like our own universe, without pure good and with no instances of

pure evil.

The perfect example for our world: both the USSR and the USA cannot be considered absolutely

benevolent or absolutely malevolent.

They are something in between since both the regimes had both great achievements and dark

moments.

That is why we should always try to see and compare all of the points of view and then,

only on the basis of concrete facts, we can derive conclusions and make loud statements.

And that is exactly why I started making this video today – to refute the statement of

the Galactic Empire being absolutely evil and the Galactic Republic being absolutely

good.

I think, it would be easier for us to begin with refuting the main and the most frequent

arguments that can point to the Empire being utterly wicked.

So, what about the racism and the anti-alien discrimination?

Of course, it would be silly to presume there was no racism or, as we should better call

it, ''speciesism'' was absent in the Empire.

It was present and it was quite widespread.

But is wasn't as outrageous as some might think.

The same point is with slavery.

The mere fact of the presence of this institute allows us to say that the Galactic Empire

was very-very far from being a paradise.

But this Empire wasn't alone in this regard.

The Galactic Republic was also filled with slaves, with the obvious example being Anakin

Skywalker and his mother.

In fact, during the reign of the Galactic Empire we could see less slaves on Tatooine,

I honestly don't remember even a single slave shown or described to us in films or

in any of the books except for the unfortunate dwellers of the Jabba Palace.

By the way, did you know that before the Empire got rid of old corporatocracies like the Trade

Federation, the noted corporation tried enslaving entire species, not only in the Outer Rim,

but also in the Mid Rim, not that far away from the Republic Capital, without any major

sanctions from the corrupt Republican Government and the Senate.

There is actually a historical factor that guaranteed the popularity of intolerance among

the citizens of the Galactic Republic and later, of the Galactic Empire.

Thousands of years before the events of the films, the Republic was controlled by an authoritarian

regime that based its power upon the principles of a humanocentric cult called Pius Dea, During

that turmoilous era the Galactic Republic experienced one of the bloodiest series of

conflicts in its history – the famous Pius Dea Crusades that also included measures of

''witch hunting'' and xenophobic propaganda.

Even millenia after the end of the crusades major portions of the Republican population

felt the longing for the militaristic past.

Just imagine the scale of the events that took place during that era of internal and

external strife.

Entire species were eliminated, entire worlds cleansed.

And on the other hand we have the Imperial aggressions that literally fade on the background

of the evils that were committed by the Republic in the past.

Of course, one may say: ''Didn't the Galactic Empire destroy

an entire planet of Alderaan?

Didn't the imperials use the Base Delta Zero Naval Code to destroy the populations

of entire planets as well?''

And yes, of course they did.

But here one must also know the context of the events.

The Galactic Empire destroyed planets not because it just wanted.

Of course, there were a few crazy-minded individuals like Tarkin, for example, but the ideology

of the Galactic Empire was not based upon the actual annihilation.

It was based upon fear and obedience.

And Alderann, while pretending to be a pretty peaceful planet, was VERY disobedient and,

I must even say, radical.

It was the Alderaanian rebel cell that planned and initiated the operation to destroy the

planet called Bilbringi, using a baradium fission device.

Fortunately, thanks to the sanity of Quip Fargill, a smuggler who decided not to follow

the instruction of his rebel friends, the tragedy was avoided.

By the way, do you know about the destruction of the population of planet Caamas performed

by the Imperials?

Yes, it was an act of violence and those who ordered the massacre can indeed be called

war criminals, but the fact is is that Bothan spies, the very agents who will later help

the Rebel Alliance to acquire the plans of the Second Death Star, played a key role in

the Destruction of Caamas.

Why we mentioned this particular example?

Because it shows that the Universe of Star Wars has no clear distinction between the

good and the bad.

Sometimes even the so-called ''good'' factions commit bad deeds.

By the way, it is time to talk about the rotten and corrupt apparatus of the Galactic Republic.

To prove our point we can cite the information form the Imperial Sourcebook where we can

learn about the predecessors of the Imperial Intelligence, about the 5 bureaus of the Republic

Intelligence that fought between each other now and then, following the whims of different

Senatorial factions.

But that is just a triffe.

The Quasiconfederational Republican Apparatus of Power caused literal chaos in the Outer

Rim where pirates, slavers and CIS remnants held entire sectors under their control.

Some of them even called themselves ''kings''.

All this mess was later cleared up by the Galactic Empire.

In facts, that is what the Emperor ordered right after establishing himself an eternal

ruler.

All of these adventures of the Imperial Armed Forces in the Outer fringes of the Galaxy

received the name of the ''Reconquest of the Outer Rim''.

The noted operation lasted for 2 years, from 19 to 17 BBY.

By the way, in the preceding years the Republic also tried to conduct the ''peacekeeping''

activities in the Outer Rim.

Should I even mention they failed dramatically?

And that is mildly said.

In the conflict called the Hux War the Galactic Republic showed its bad sides by putting sanctions

upon the victim of the war, planet Kalee, that was under attack of a technologically

advanced Insectoid Race of Hux.

After the sanctions bill was enacted, some of the planets in the Outer Rim experiences

devastating hunger, hunger that, undoubtedly, killed millions of lives and maybe even promoted

cannibalism among the Kaleesh population.

Oh, and there is also Malastar, the native world of Dags that was occupied by Grams who

enslaved the whole race by the legal actions they performed in the Galactic Senate.

We should also never forget that the Senate gave the right to vote to the Trade Federation,

the act that allowed this mega corporation to acquire the right to own a whole fleet

of space warships.

By the way, do you remember this face?

Yes, you are right, this is Bail Organa, a kind defender of disadvantaged people, a real

social justice warrior.

That is exactly how he was described in the Rebels TV series, as well as the Ahsoka book.

But was he really like that?

Of course not.

It was he who tried to legalize the usage of Baradium bombs and it was ultimately he

who was responsible for supplying the most radical rebel cells, including the infamous

Alderaan cell we previously mentioned.

Of course the dissolution of the Senate that was performed by Palpatine, an act that was

a part of his ultimate strategy of centralizing his authoritarian power was not a very democratic

move and his actions ultimately lead to an increase in corruption levels.

But we can't even compare it with the situation that was omnipresent in the Galactic Republic.

Yes, during the heights of the Imperial Reign, the freedom of speech was frequently obstructed

and nepotism rates were growing, yet during the last years of the Galactic Republic things

that grew were chaos, oligarchy and the law of the jungle.

Both of these forms of government were, mildly speaking, not the best but, choosing from

the two evils, I would better pick the Imperial one, especially since the reforms that took

place after the death of Palpatine, when Pelleon, Natasi Daala and, later, emperors from the

Fel dynastly, changed the Imperial society to better.

Of course, The Second Galactic Empire was not a paradise but it was shown that the Imperial

Order can have the humanistic face and develop the society in the humanitarian course.

And yes, I should also mention that after Palpatine started the process of power centralization,

the so-called ''Department 3 ''of the COMPNOR fought against smugglers and black

market agents, spreading the rule of law to the deepest fringes of the Galaxy Far Far

Away.

Unlike the Galactic Republic, that could only boast with hundreds of big ship, the Galactic

Empire produced thousands of capital ships every year, creating the biggest military

starfleet in history.

Trillions and trillions of soldiers served in the newly created Imperial Army.

And no, those soldiers were no conscripts.

They were no cannon fodder.

They were skilled warriors that agreed to serve by their own volition.

But it wasn't only the army service that was prestigious.

Finally, after all the years in the course of the Galactic History since Valkorion, the

common folk received an opportunity to work on factories that were build all over the

Galaxy.

Of course, the working conditions were far from ideal but working on a factory was way

better than wasting your life as a pauper or dying as a hutt's slave.

Besides, the Galactic Empire actually cared about the upbringing and education of children.

The SA Group of the COMPNOR was responsible for turning a child into a real citizen.

And now, to finally smash to pieces the opinion that the universe of Star Wars is unipolar

and one-sided, let's remind ourselves about some progressive Imperial Remnants and about

the Fel Empire, the direct successor states of the Galactic Empire.

Yes, there is no doubt that after the death of Emperor Palpatine, many moffs and admirals

became the same kind of arrogant ''kinglets'' that different pirate leaders and hutts used

to be during the Republican Era.

But the general conditions of life in the Galaxy became better and more people started

to believe that the brighter future is coming.

After Pelleon came to power, xenophobia was prohibited.

Another famous high-ranking imperial official, Natasi Daala, saw to it that all of the declared

rights of women had finally became real.

In the Second Galactic Empire all of its citizens had equal right and even aliens could finally

serve in the stormtrooper corp and take positions previously reserved only to humans.

While summing up the conclusion of our today's video, I would like to clearly and openly

say one more time that the universe of Star Wars is not a black and white universe.

In the Galaxy Far-Far Away, especially in the old canon, there is no true greater good

and close to no absolute evil.

Of course, if we only consider the kindergartenkids-oriented TV series, our perception can be easily fooled.

But if we only dig a little deeper into the Star Wars lore, we can see the clear and more

full, more logical picture.

In the universe of Star Wars, as well as in the real world, there is no clear answer what

state or organization is the best.

We can easily say that the preferences a person might have towards one form of government

or another are very subjective and, even considering all of the positive sides of the Empire, the

rapid economic growth and the bigger rate of stability, some people may dislike the

Galactic Empire for obvious reason, like limiting the freedom of speech, for example.

The main idea of my today's video was to show that the universe is not simple.

Understating the universe, even a fictional universe and, especially our universe, requires

critical and system thinking.

A person who prefers to see the world through rose-colored glasses is always easily manipulated.

By the way, I plan to include a bit of philosophy like this into my future videos as well so

don't forget to subscribe and leave a like if you want to see more.

Thanks for watching and, as the ancients said, ''Let the Force go With you.

Always!''

Lukas Watercolors Comparison-Pro Vs. Student, is it worth it? - Duration: 8:03.

Hello Friends!

It's Kat, from MeowMeowKapow!

Through Youtube, I've met a lot of thoughtful, caring, and generous people.

One of whom is Mikki, from Malamik Art.

If you haven't already checked out her channel, Mikki has a TON of product reviews, especially

for watercolor and oil paints.

I love when she decides to get goofy with things like looking at her painting through

a microscope, and her portraits are very soft and lovely to watch come to life.

A while ago, she reviewed the Artist's quality Lukas 1862 paints on her channel, and she

loved them!

We got into a discussion about how I'd tried the student grade Lukas Aquarelle studio watercolors

a while ago and we talked about swapping paints with each other to try.

Especially to compare her $60 Lukas paints with my $16 paints to see if the difference

was worth it.

Except Mikki sent a 14 pound box, holy smokes!!!!

There's so much candy in here guys….

It's just crazy.

My favorite part is actually the little card she sent, which has a tiny painting she did

with some of the paints I sent her.

It's adorable, and sweet and I'm hanging it all on my wall to keep me happy.

Now to the whole point of this video, the paints!

The poor little tin of Lukas paints got so jostled around in the mail that half the colors

were just loose in the tin.

I asked Mikki what order she wanted them in, and she said "Oh, any old order is fine!"

to which I said "Rainbow order it is, then!"

It's my favorite order, you see.

That an the Order of the Phoenix.

Because the whole point of this video is to compare my studio grade paints with her professional

paints, I thought it would be a good idea to see if they had the same colors and to

try and line them up in the same order.

In case you have problems with getting your pans to stay in the tin, here's how to really

make sure they're secure.

First, take out all the paints and push the metal….

hands?

Fingers?

We're gonna call them hands.

Push the metal hands inwards, usually further than you think you'll need to.

Figure out what order you want your paints in, and then rest one edge of your pan on

the ledge without a hand, and have it angled up towards the top of the hand.

When you put firm pressure on the upper part of the pan, it should make an audible click

as it locks into place.

It's okay if it's a little bit difficult, because you want the grip to be really tight.

But if it's too hard, loosen the hand's grip just a tiny amount and it'll be okay.

By the way, if you check the doobly-doo you'll find links to all the products used, as well

as ways to help support my channel and how to find Malamik Art.

I appreciate deeply every like, comment, and subscribe!

If you'd like to help fund these art adventures, please consider leaving a tip on my Ko-Fi

account.

Thank you!

For the student grade paints, I did my best to match the order with what I'd put the

professional paints in.

There isn't any pigment information on the box or online for the student grade paints,

but here are the names and in the order they came in.

We're gonna have a jolly laugh about one of them in a bit.

Y'all know by now that I'm obsessed with labelling my paints, so just like if this

were any other palette build, I'm putting tape labels on my pans and then rearranging

them to match the order of the professional grade paints.

Thankfully, it looks like both of them are intended to be roughly identical in color!

I never swatched out the student paints when I got them, so we'll be doing that alongside

the professional ones as well.

The first thing I did was jut a basic little swatch test of each color, followed then by

a flow test on the side of the chart.

This was just done by wetting part of the paper and then lightly dabbing in dots of

color to see how the paints moved in the water.

They bloom a little, but their flow is modest at best.

The professional paints flow slightly better than the student paints, but nothing crazy

like M Graham or Daniel Smith.

After this, I made black lines on the outside of the swatches so I could both test the opacity

of the paint, as well as test its glazing ability.

Most of the pro paints glaze pretty well, meaning that you can put another layer of

paint on top of a dry layer and it not only won't disturb the lower layer, it will usually

make the color more intense.

There was also a lifting test, and I have nothing unusual to report on this Canson Montval

watercolor paper-almost everything lifted really easily to reveal the white of the paper

underneath.

Then I circled any of the paints I thought were either opaque, or semi-opaque, and repeated

the whole process for the student grade paints.

Weirdly, it seems like there are more paints in the professional line that I thought were

opaque than in the student line, but after using them….

I think it may have just been the way I did the swatches.

Also, let's take a look for a second at the payne's grey in the student set.

I even went back and double-checked the footage to make sure I hadn't accidentally labelled

the raw umber as Payne's grey somehow, but no….

It's definitely the right pan.

That's just also definitely NOT payne's grey.

AT best, it's some kind of brown, though I couldn't tell you which.

Why you lyin,' Lukas?

Hi Bubba!

He got bored while I was painting so he politely asked me to pet him by gently petting my work

table.

He's so sweet! Aaah!

Now, back to the paints.

To give them both a fair test, I made two drawings of the same character and used identical

colors to make the mixes.

The one thing I goofed up a bit was the skin tone, because I couldn't quite match the

color exactly but everything else is pretty much spot-on.

One thing I noticed is that the student paints really did not like to layer.

When I put the shadow on the legs, a very thin wash of my shadow color started to reactivate

and move the stripes for the leggings.

The professional paint didn't have that problem at all and they glazed easily and

beautifully.

Both paints were super vibrant though, which was actually really confusing for me.

The only other thing I'd ever painted with my student paints was over a year ago, I did

a portrait of Link from Breath of the Wild.

I remember having a super hard time building up the color and was pretty frustrated with

the paleness of the piece, but I was at least glad that the whole thing overall was evenly

pale.

Since I had the excuse to take it off my wall, prints of Link will be in my etsy shop.

You can find the URL for that down in the doobly-doo, along with all the other stuff

I mentioned earlier.

Weirdly, it seems like I was able to get much more vibrant pigmentation this time around

with the same exact paints and aside from my own personal artistic growth, I can't

imagine what changed between then and now.

At the end of the day, which of these paints is worth it?

Frankly, I don't think either of them is.

For a student set, the Aquarelle studio paints are just so-so and do have a thickness and

chalkiness to their consistency.

They're not bad, but they've sat on my shelf for over a year without getting used

again, and I'm starting to remember why.

If I'm going to pay $16 for a set of paints to start with, I'd rather spend the exact

same money on the Sennelier Test Pack that I also just reviewed.

Or just a few dollars more on the Tropicals set from Prima Marketing, which also don't

have pigment and lightfastness information and have the benefit of coming in a sturdy

metal tin!

There are so many paints available in the same price range that these have nothing special

about them to make me really want to keep using them.

For $60, I don't really think this is a great set of professional paints, either.

The one color that I really liked and found myself wanting to use was the magenta, but

I don't think one half pan of magenta and a good tin are worth $60.

For just slightly more money, I'd rather buy a huge set of Mijello Mission gold paints

that come with a super durable studio palette, or for literally half the price I'd rather

buy a palette of white nights watercolors with 12 full pans, rather than 12 half pans.

The quality on the professional Lukas paints is by no means bad, I want to be clear on

that, but I don't think it's $60 good.

Again, there's nothing so exciting about these that makes me want to use them above

any of the other paints that I have in the same if not better price range.

That's just my opinion though, what's your experience with these?

I've seen a couple of reviews of people who really really loved them, and maybe I'm

just not understanding their strengths?

After all, I didn't love Sennelier paints at first because I thought their color was

too wimpy compared to my Daniel Smith paints, but when I used them more and more I eventually

fell in love.

Anyway, until I see you again, I wish you peace, love, and a Bubba snoot.

Bye!

This is One Bizarre Reason You're Not Successful - Duration: 5:18.

the story I'm about to share hasn't been easy for me because I don't look awesome

in it but I know it's why you're not successful years ago I was probably

about 19 going into a Walmart it was late on a Thursday night I was with my

younger sister had to take her to get some arts and crafts projects and I was

killing time I was walking towards the game section I saw this guitar just

caught my eye if you don't know what this is this is Guitar Hero it's kind of

like Dance Dance Revolution but the keys fly at the screen and you have to hit

the buttons on this controller when you hit them in line when you're supposed to

there's a virtual audience in the video game that's cheering you on you feel

like a rock star when you're doing it well but when you miss Keys they boo and

if you miss enough keys they boo you so hard they rip out your cord and you have

to take a walk of shame off stage now I started playing this game and the game

that I was playing the song was slow ride by Foghat I started playing it and

I will tell you it was one of the greatest feelings I had ever had in my

life because I was hitting every note I played the entire song perfectly the

audience in the crowd in that game were losing their minds I was a rock star in

their eyes then I looked in reality it was Thursday night probably about 10

o'clock right now in the evening and no one was really there except for my

sister felt like showing off to her but I did not get what I was expecting

Michael you're on the easy level why are you even bragging about that but I

thought okay look I played it perfectly on the easy level maybe I'll move up a

next level move up to the rock star level and you know I'll be fine

I was only on the medium level and I was only 15 seconds in and there are so many

more keys it was going so much faster it one lasted 15 seconds before the virtual

audience had enough they booed me offstage my core was ripped and I could

no longer finish the song

was just the game but it just devastated me this feeling of rejection from a

virtual audience not even real people

I'll tell you I love that feeling from playing on the easy level this is

pathetic but I waited for my sister to leave and

I played the easy level again just these three little keys notes coming at me so

slow that I can hit it perfectly and the audience would go nuts again it's pretty

sad to live your life like this so create this feeling so bad to feel that

you're great to feel that you're important that you matter that you stay

on the easy level and you never actually become better you never master anything

I could say that the world is different but it's really not what if you started

looking at everyone in your life this audience just like in that game was it

real yes they're watching you yes when you fall they might laugh and you might

make a fool of yourself from time to time but in reality it's a virtual

audience they're not as obsessed with you as you think they are I think one of

the keys in life is having a dream or having a skill some type of value want

to add to the world and working on it and removing that potential for getting

booze or getting your cord ripped and having to go offstage let that be

something that you don't fear be so wrapped up in becoming an actual

rockstar becoming actually good at your craft if the audience won't matter

you'll just use them for feedback but your Kian life will be stepping up to

the hardest level stretching yourself doing above and beyond what you think

you can do so that one day you can actually do it I don't know what it is

but you're still that you want to develop is your dream is I think you can

do it but I can't think you can stay at the easy level the same time as well

just stretch yourself try to push yourself

a little bit more and almost intensely get booze get rejected play on a level

that's above your skill level just to know that it's okay the world is not

going to crumble when you make a mistake or fail or get rejected or have people

laugh at you you so wrapped up in hitting those keys and getting better

not the audience no longer is there all that matters is you getting better so

get off the easy level one from this guitar hero game I certainly have

I start taking it to the next level moving to the next level is challenging

and if you want more videos like this to motivate you to move up to the next

level subscribe to my channel today by hitting my face in that bottom right

corner this is your friend Michael I hope you enjoyed this video and I cannot

wait to see you in the next one

BREAKING: They Just Made It Official! Every Anti-Gun Marcher Is About To RIOT! - Duration: 5:53.

BREAKING: They Just Made It Official!

Every Anti-Gun Marcher Is About To RIOT!

Misguided teenagers were being used as pawns in a Democrat chess move pushing an anti-gun

agenda at the March For Our Lives while the Iowa Senate passed a striking resolution that

could change their constitution and send anti-gun agenda pushers into a mass frenzy.

After seeing what Iowa just voted on and passed by a staggering 54-42 vote, it's shocking

to see that the Democrats in the state haven't begun rioting yet.

That's perhaps because people are too busy worrying about what teens like David Hogg

and Emma Gonzalez are up to with their shenanigans and puppetry perpetrated by the Democrats

who pay for things like busses and travel expenses for people to appear at the protest

against guns.

Meanwhile, in other locations, people were actually getting real things done.

There was a very drastic exchange, and the result was a stunning victory for Republicans

who could now place a resolution to the "right to bear arms" on the Iowa constitution and

could be featured on a ballot in the November 2020 election.

There's plenty of legislation that needs to occur before anything is official.

However, the votes are in, and it's official thus far.

It will go to a second approval in 2019 or 2020.

The amendment will ensure that people have the absolute right to keep and bear arms.

This amendment will protect the second amendment and allow people to continue defending themselves

with self-defense weapons, guns for hunting, and even those who participate in gun ownership

as a hobby.

It will undoubtedly cause Democrats to get their feathers ruffled and sparked a massive

controversy if other states catch on and begin protecting the population by allowing them

to defend themselves from enemies and animals for those who live in extremely rural areas

which might have bears that like to sniff around.

The Des Moines Register reported more details on the proposed amendment: "Iowa is one

of only six states not to have language protecting a right to bear arms in its state constitution.

They also rejected implications by Democrats that the constitutional amendment could promote

gun violence.

"In the big majority of counties around the United States, there are no murders, or

maybe one in a given year.

In many, many counties around the United States, and those are a lot of rural areas, almost

everybody owns a firearm, but they don't murder people," said Sen. Julian Garrett,

R-Indianola.

"It is only in concentrated areas where we have these murders."

The resolution says: "The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

The sovereign state of Iowa affirms and recognizes this right to be a fundamental individual

right.

Any and all restrictions of this right shall be subject to strict scrutiny."

Much of the debate focused on the "strict scrutiny" provisions.

Iowa would become only the fourth state to have the "strict scrutiny" requirements.

Some Democrats suggested the wording would add a higher standard in the courts that could

prevent lawmakers from requiring gun owners to have permits or undergo background checks,

or it could even allow Iowa gun owners to acquire machine guns.

Sen. Tony Bisignano, D-Des Moines, said he is baffled when he hears legislators talk

about the intentions of the nation's Founding Fathers as though modern people knew what

they envisioned for firearms.

"Can you envision what arms will look like in 150 years?

What we have today for arms is beyond their imagination," Bisignano said.

Republicans suggested the strict scrutiny language was to provide guidance to the courts,

cautioning that some activist judges offer their own views when interpreting laws.

Sen. Brad Zaun, R-Urbandale, the resolution's floor manager, urged support for the measure.

"I trust the Iowa voter," he said.

"They are going to tell us if they don't like the language in front of us.

They are going to tell us how important their Second Amendment rights are."

The constitutional amendment is supported by the National Rifle Association, Iowa Firearms

Coalition, Iowa Minuteman Civil Defense Corps, and ABATE of Iowa.

The opponents include the the Iowa Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church,

the League of Women Voters of Iowa, and the Giffords, a gun violence prevention group

founded by former U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and her husband, retired astronaut Mark Kelly.

This is not the first time Iowa Republicans have attempted to amend the state constitution

to include protections for the right to keep and bear arms.

A previous effort in 2012 would have used more expansive language that said "mandatory

licensing, registration, or special taxation as a condition of the exercise of (the right

to keep and bear arms) is prohibited."

That bill failed to advance in the Senate, which, at the time, was controlled by Democrats.

Both the House and Senate are now controlled by Republicans."

Republicans can expect big-name Democrats like Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi to voice

their opinion on this while the local leftists in Iowa cause an issue for the people who

wish to keep and bear arms.

There's reportedly over 300,000,000 guns in the country and the majority of the gun

owners and guns are not participants in a crime.

America has a people problem, and there's a lot of crimes committed without guns.

If America can convince people to follow the law, then we wouldn't be in any situation

where unknowledgeable teenagers are marching for things they know little about.
