Part 1
A man is traveling by foot when he sees a party of merchants walking in the opposite direction. With that party is a donkey who is heavily burdened with all the merchandise. The man noticing the donkey ready to collapse, states, "That donkey is carrying too much! Take off some of those things so that he does not die from exhaustion!"
The merchants take a look at the donkey and see that the man is correct. They start to discuss among themselves what they should do.
I have a theory about the supposed increase in autists. The internet is to blame. Not simply because people can look up terms and mis-diagnose themselves (though this is part of it), but rather that the internet has the unfortunate side effect of allowing people to be "terminally online."
When you are doing the vast majority of your communication through text alone, you are missing most of the actual communication you would get in a natural social situation (vocal inflections, emotions)

For anyone who wants marriage and family in their future, I have some advice:
Don't marry wrong. If that means not marrying at all, so be it.
It is indeed better to not marry at all than to make the wrong choice on who to marry. I will never tell any man that they have an obligation to get married, because in spite of the fact that I am married myself, I understand that my path is not one that can or should be prescribed to all other men.
@houseoftolstoy you cannot have efficiently working government when you have population size in hundreds of millions. i have no clue what the situation in China or India is but at least China has total control and can do things in a way that no western democracy can.
Doing recon listening to state propaganda NPR, and they had a guest on to talk about how RFK Jr. gutting the HHS was bad because "the HHS saved the government money by preventing fraud and abuse in the system with their oversight."
Okay, that might be true. But it begs the question of why is it even possible to have this fraud and abuse in the first place. Maybe we shouldn't be granting money so easily for every request for funding. That's the real problem, not the cuts to bloated institutions.
While I see plenty of talk about the anti-white agenda of the Episcopalian "church," I have not seen as much talk about the fact that President Trump actually granted asylum to a group of white people on the basis that they were being persecuted. So I will give him credit for doing something that is not just in the interests of Israel.
When I think I have seen everything, am proven wrong. I am seeing a cornhole competition televised. I never knew anyone would take a game like that seriously enough to be doing full blown competitions. That game should just remain something you do with extended family on the 4th of July or frat house gatherings.
If you have the access to a cattle farmer and abundant freezer space (at least a medium sized deep freeze bare minimum), I would recommend purchasing quarter/half/whole cow for butchering. It will not only be a better value in the long run, but I know I can taste the difference with the steaks, roasts, and ground beef from a cow you get directly from the farmer versus buying it at a grocery store.
A half cow will pretty much fill a medium deep freezer. So keep in mind your storage space.
On the topic of "identifying the problem not being enough," I can come up with an example we all well know: inflation. Yes, inflation is a problem when your money buys less things. But when you see many people give their input for solutions, they would often make the problem worse. For example: "The government needs to provide more financial assistance to people." when that "assistance" would just mean more money printing and more of the same problem.

Watching interviews like this are a great way to slow boil my blood. Much of it has to do with Scott Galloway. To his credit, he can correctly assess what the problems are, but he will constantly bend over backwards to deny the underlying causes of the problems (mainly feminism).
This just goes to show that identifying the problem is not enough when looking for solutions, as many "solutions" will just make the problem worse. Scott Galloway offers only bad solutions.
Relevant, as it is happening right now. But it might stop being "slow" if we find far too many people desparate with nothing to lose.
Looks like this will be my new home. Warning: I (probably) have Asperger's, so my be prepared for my autism to show through.
I don't think I am a right wing extremist, but I am sure anyone with low testosterone might think otherwise.
