Man, having a baby is so much fun.
We’ll be at 9 months next week & it’s been, BY FAR, the best 9 months of my life.
Don’t listen to people who say it’s a chore & that their lives are boring & suck now… they just suck
The rewards are exponentially better than the challenges
I have no idea if DeSantis wears lifts and I don’t care. But he should have done the podcast circuit right out of the gate, and not had an army of aggressive and irritating online surrogates. Probably too late for him now, but he should keep doing these podcasts to get used to the format, be ready for the next round when he will do much better.
When I took the red pill I was an anxious mess with no self esteem. I got married at 25 to a “provider” and stayed at home to raise a family and clean up after a person who was fit for life in a barn.
I was constantly belittled, harassed, and scapegoated. I became boring and isolated and sold myself short. My physical health failed too as I had trouble eating due to the stress of trying to live this meme red pill trad life. I hate seeing pictures of myself from that time, I looked lifeless and sick.
I remember when I was newly post partum with a colicky baby who cried most of the day and I was breastfeeding on the couch and I asked my ex if he could make me a shake (pre made powder and milk, literally two ingredients) and he screamed at me that he didn’t exist to serve me and said if I expected help with our child that I would need to put more effort into looking fuckable. Misery.
What is my life like now that I reject misogyny and understand that women, although flawed because we are human, are actually better people than men because of endless capacity to love? I have a loving relationship that’s allowed me to look better than ever because stress has largely been removed from my life thanks to him, I have wonderful friendships with other women who have forever touched my soul, I suddenly don’t have problems with anxiety, and my health is back on track.
My life is fun and easygoing and I’ve had great opportunities come my way without having to force it just because I’m living authentically open to receiving the gifts this life wants to give me. I actually feel feminine for the first time in my life because I don’t feel that being a woman is shameful but rather incredibly powerful.
Reject the red pill, reject misogyny, find your real self, be happy, be safe, be loved
The tragedy of the United States is that the entire place could be fixed in under 5 years with the right people in the right positions, with limitless authority and a rough mentality. But it won’t happen.
Our daughter had colic for a couple of months. It was "hard." I remember walking her around the house, half-asleep at 3AM, trying to get her down. For my wife the ordeal was obviously worse.
It was a short time of sacrifice in the grand scheme of our lives. Our daughter is a joy. But as tedious as her crying sometimes was, now I often look back on those moments - just me, her, and the moonlight - and even miss it. She was so small and helpless. She will never be like that again. And in some sense, because of it, I will never be as important to her as I was in those nights.
The modern bugman doesn't grasp this tradeoff. Yes, children are work. But all things that matter are work. Challenges provide meaning to existence, and not only allow you to appreciate the good times - they are the very seeds to those good times existing at all.
Don't ask for less burdens, ask for greater strength to carry them.
I just clocked 1200 miles of driving around the west in 4 days. I talk to everyone about everything and anything and keep an eye out. People are facing a stiff gale of economic adversity. Strangers are unusually wary of casual conversation. And the new touch-screen McDonalds suck. But, as ever, most still do their best and we're a friendly people. Americans try.

“And as you might have seen, there was some sort of rave or desert party where they were having a great time, until the resistance came in electrified hang gliders and took at least several dozen hipsters” Speeches held at the ‘All Out For Palestine’ protest outside the Israeli Consulate in New York
