@ApexSapien Truth.
Stop manipulating or acting.
Be authentic. Acknowledge to yourself about your intentions.
Romance and dating is a game.
But physical intimacy is sacred.
It is the quantum entanglement with another soul.
Playing with fire if you think casual connections arent karmic.

The only way to preserve multiculturalism for the world ... is to protect the bespoke and beautiful cultures of each country.
Mass migration is rapidly replacing the world's cultures with one god-almighty violent, poverty-stricken mess.
@waynecarey27 Wayne-o you're better than this gutter style click bait journalism!
I loved watching Glen Jakovich dominate you @subiacolions Subi oval @WestCoastEagles .
Nah you had a crack and got a yard or two on him with a lucky bounce or Jacko slipped over due to his tight turning circle
@RositaDaz48@AlboMP I recall the $4B paid out to France in the contract termination of submarine construction. Labor Albo trying hard not to be as wasteful 🤣
@Thejimpenman Inspiration to all self employed humans ‼️
Thankyou for the opportunities and how rewarding it must feel to build a nationwide franchise!
Today is World Franchise Day.
A story worth telling.
In 1982, I was a history PhD student at La Trobe. I got my thesis rejected.
So I bought a second-hand mower for $24 and started cutting lawns to pay the bills.
One man. One trailer. No business background. No investors.
I had a choice. Keep the work to myself, or hand the model to others.
In 1989, I chose to franchise.
I gave everyday Australians a way to own their own business with a brand, a system, and a team behind them.
That one decision grew into the largest franchise network in the country.
Today Jim's Group is:
5,800+ franchisees across Australia, New Zealand, the UK and Canada
50+ service divisions, from mowing to cleaning to fencing and beyond
Thousands of local owners working in your suburb, your street, your community
Every Jim's vehicle you see belongs to a local.
Someone who backed themselves.
Someone in business for themselves, but never on their own.
Franchising gives you the freedom of ownership with the strength of a network around you.
I proved a $24 idea could turn into thousands of livelihoods.
To all of our franchisees and franchisors, thank you for the work you do and the communities you serve.
Happy World Franchise Day.

There has been bipartisan support,at federal and state levels, for the selling of public housing stock over the last 20 yrs.
Labor and LNP both agreed the private investors would do the heavylifting of government responsibility.
Both abandoned public housing priorities.
Okay this is genuinely insane.
SpaceX just unveiled a satellite whose only job is to run AI. Not internet. Not GPS. Just compute, floating in orbit.
It's called AI1, and the reason behind it breaks your brain.
AI data centers on Earth are hitting a wall, not a chip wall, a physics wall.
They need staggering amounts of power and water just to stay cool, and we're running out of grid and land to build them.
So Musk's answer is: stop building them on Earth.
In orbit, the sun never sets. Free power, 24/7. No water for cooling, you just radiate heat into the vacuum of space. The two things choking AI on the ground barely exist up there.
And here's the wild part: Musk says it's easier to build than a Starlink satellite. Strip out the complex antennas and it's "a lot of solar cells, a radiator, and some laser links."
One AI1 carries the compute of an Nvidia GB300 rack, the same hardware data centers fight over down here.
AI1 is just the first one. The plan is a constellation of up to a million of them.
And the timing isn't an accident, SpaceX goes public this week at a ~$1.75 trillion target. This isn't a rocket company anymore. It's positioning itself as the power grid for AI, in space.
The race for AI compute just left the planet. Literally.
