If only there was a third option, something like a geographically close, economically integrated, democratically governed entity made up of close allies and neighbours.
I have more thoughts about this, and at some point I will have that conversation with anyone who cares to listen...
But this is part of why I very deliberately go out of my way to fully embrace all my male friends when we meet, and when we bid each other farewell.
Do you know that the average single man can go months or even years without non-sexual physical touch. No hugs. No hand-holding. No comforting pat on the back?
The only time many men experience gentle touch is from a barber or a paid sex worker.
This condition is called 'Skin Hunger,' and it leads to severe depression and anxiety. Society has labeled male touch as 'predatory' or 'creepy,' so men have learned to starve themselves of human contact just to make women feel comfortable. They are dying of loneliness in a crowded room.
In case you haven’t heard:
Women are suing Pfizer in a class action lawsuit because the birth control shots (Depo-Provera) have been found to cause brain tumors.
1 in 4 women use this birth control. And Black women are prescribed it at double the national rate.
People seem very confused about “digital ID”.
It is not the same thing as carrying ID cards that people have in the EU. It is a wholly different beast.
It means you have a number. An identifier. Your ability to do anything can be turned off by the government at any time.
Whether that is taking a flight, buying something on Amazon or sending a parcel.
Whether that is looking at the internet, opening a bank account or accessing the NHS.
In the EU, we are rapidly moving towards a digital ID. The EU is pushing companies like Amazon to require it to make purchases or Facebook to “verify” your account. Right now it is voluntary and works mainly across government agencies - healthcare, mail service, tax authorities. But in due course it won’t be voluntary.
It does absolutely nothing to stop illegal migrants from entering the country or working in the black economy.
Two years ago, it took me more than 3 weeks to create a certain type of product.
Today, it took me 5 minutes.
That’s the power of experience.
If your online store isn’t performing, it’s not because eCommerce doesn’t work — it’s because you haven’t hired me.
My dm is open!
Charlie Kirk said black people were better off in slavery and subjugation before the 1940’s.

@YMK_sama Everyone is different so it's really a lot of trial and error finding the appropriate dosage- usually it's Elvanse/Vyvance (lisdexamphetamine) or Adderall but there's also alternative non-stimulant options like Straterra (atomoxetine).
SCIENCE: Women can exercise less often than men but receive greater cardiovascular gains and a bigger reduction in mortality, according to a study published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.

Brilliant guy in one field tripped up by the vanity of inadequate preparation is a human standard.
Being good at a single thing does not prevent you from being a bumbling fool in others.
