If you want something different, do something different. Evolve or die. Moving through the middle passage as gracefully as possible.

@CurtisDaly_ uhh public school pay starts at 75k a year here in Texas. They get government pensions too. Two people equals 150k starting. That’s pretty great IMO

@CurtisDaly_ This is a poor example. Yes it's harder today and houses are unobtanium for most of the population. Having said that public school teachers can make pretty good money. Two of them together would have no problem swinging a 500k mortgage, even today.

This is actually a terrible loss. So much for the arts and humanities, which are necessary for a well-rounded, well-educated society. A better idea would be to cap runaway tuition rates that have increased several hundred percents in the last 25 years.

Donald Trump is making major changes that will ban colleges from the Federal Student Loan Program and all federal financial aid if the programs at that college don't pass the earnings test “They are putting together a new earnings threshold test that says Bachelor degree program graduates have to earn more than the median high school graduate in your state 4 years after graduation. And when it comes to grad school programs, they have to earn more than bachelor's degree graduates for that same type of field in that state within 4 years after their graduate school program. If the school program fails this test for 2 years in a row, they will lose access to federal Fi, federal student loans. And if more than 50% of the school's programs fail this test, they lose access to all types of federal financial aid programs.” Here’s what that really means Colleges can no longer have programs that do not deliver positive financial outcomes for their graduates The goal is to stop federal taxpayer subsidies via loans and grants for programs that leave graduates financially worse off or no better than if they had skipped college This is common sense legislation and a huge win for everyone

Animal shelter security footage captured a scared dog with a large St Bernard. I had a St Bernard and this is exactly how loving they are❣️ I’d adopt them both!

Exactly, the adjusted take home wage vs what I made has basically doubled while costs of food, housing, entertainment etc have all more than tripled or quadripled. I was basically breaking even with a couple hundred left over a month to save but I was going out a couple nights a week for dollar drafts, dinner dates etc. Today you'd be negative $1000 a month to live the same lifestyle I did with zero going out. Negative $1500 if you want to go out for a couple meals and drinks and a month with a date.

Young Americans are losing it and having mental breakdowns because they just can’t afford to live “I'm f*cking stressed out. I'm f*cking stressed. We should not be working like this. I work my ass off and I can't even f*cking pay bills — All of sh*t just pointless” The cost of living in America has to come drastically down. Americans can’t afford bills, they can’t afford a home, they certainly can’t afford to start a family An estimated 70% of Gen Z struggle to pay rent, an estimated 53% of Millennials also struggle just to pay rent This is not the America we want to live in

@nevarc @Jan6Fun @WallStreetApes Absolutey can affirm this. Me too. 25 years ago I had a 2/1 two blocks from the beach for $450. I worked maybe 35 hrs a week AT THE MALL. Ins & pension. In college. That same apt is I think $1800 now. I know my mall wage did not increase that much in 25 yrs.

You guys are completely out of touch with reality. I was born in 79, I've made millions in my career, worked full time from 13 years old under the table and the cost of living that actually matters, housing, food, healthcare, transportation is multiple times what you guys paid adjusted for inflation. My first apartment was $550 a month 25 years ago, that same shitty studio apartment in a shitty building in a shitty part of town today is $1800 a month. Wages were outpaced by inflation. It isn't the kids netflix and chai lattes guys, that's a retarded take.

@RoshanJimmy1 @TemooTitan It’s all in the cut. That kind of neckline is always going to accentuate her upper body. A nice wide strap v-neck would look nice and feminine.

Cannabis is detrimental to sperm: even if they can fertilize, there can be DNA damage. Many miscarriages and (in the case of IVF) “day 3 crashes” which is when paternal DNA normally kicks in, are cannabis related. Dr Natalie Crawford on the Huberman Lab podcast out now.

The research behind this is wild. Your sperm carries a set of instructions that tell your genes when to turn on and off. A Duke University study found that THC rewrites those instructions. The more weed in your system, the bigger the changes. It goes straight for the genes your future embryo needs in its first week of life. I had to read the "day 3 crash" part twice. For the first three days after fertilization, an embryo runs entirely on the mother's DNA. Day 3, the father's genes switch on. If those genes carry cannabis damage, the embryo just stops growing. Fertility doctors see this happen in their labs: embryos that fertilized fine and looked healthy on day 2 go completely still by day 5. Boston University tracked 1,535 couples trying to have a baby. Men who smoked weed once a week or more doubled their partner's miscarriage risk. That number held up even when the woman herself never touched cannabis. And the miscarriages clustered in the first 8 weeks, right when the father's damaged DNA would be doing the most harm. Duke also found that the specific genes THC alters in sperm overlap with genes linked to autism. One of those genes, called DLGAP2, helps brain cells communicate with each other. It was changed in cannabis users' sperm. When researchers bred THC-exposed male rats and checked their offspring, the same altered gene pattern showed up in the pups' brains. The damage crossed a generation. Weed has gotten way stronger over the last 30 years. THC content was about 4% in the 1990s but nearly quadrupled to 15% by 2018, and modern dispensary strains regularly sit at 20-30%. Concentrates go up to 95%. Quitting for about 11 weeks (one full cycle of sperm production) reverses some of the DNA changes. Not all of them. Duke's lead researcher says men should stop at least 6 months before trying for a baby. Half of your kid's genetic blueprint comes from you, and right now, THC is editing that blueprint before conception even happens.

There are four blood types on this planet. A, B, AB, and O. Every medical textbook will tell you they evolved naturally over thousands of years through genetic mutation and environmental adaptation. That is the official explanation. It is also incomplete. Blood type O is the universal donor. It can give to everyone but can only receive from its own kind. It is the oldest blood type on Earth, dating back over 40,000 years. Every indigenous population on the planet, before colonization and mixing, was almost exclusively type O. The original human blueprint was O. Then something changed. Blood type A appeared suddenly in the archaeological record approximately 25,000 years ago, concentrated in Europe and parts of Asia. Type B emerged separately, primarily in the Himalayan highlands and Central Asia. Type AB, the rarest, appeared last and only where A and B populations intersected. Here is what they do not teach you: these blood types did not evolve. They appeared. Fully formed. In specific geographic locations. At specific times. With specific immunological properties that serve specific functions. Type O fights every pathogen aggressively. It is the warrior blood. Type A produces higher cortisol, making it more responsive to social hierarchy and authority. Type B carries unique lectins that interact with neurological tissue in ways science still cannot fully explain. Type AB combines properties that should not coexist in a single system. The Japanese government officially uses blood type in psychological profiling. They have done so since the 1930s. Major corporations assign teams based on blood type composition. This is not superstition. It is applied hematology that the Western world pretends does not exist. Your blood type determines how you respond to disease, to stress, to food, to electromagnetic frequencies, and to pharmaceutical drugs. It determines which frequencies your cells resonate with. It determines which MedBed protocol will restore you most efficiently. You were not born random. You were born coded. And the code is in your blood.

@PaulGoldEagle You know what’s stupid… I am in Georgia and as a 53 year old, I have no idea what my blood type is.. not only that, but my doctors don’t know and get this … can’t tell me or test for it. They told me I would need to go donate blood and they could tell me. How stupid

Americans are waking up to how INSANE food prices have gotten. He orders 2 soups, 2 grilled cheese sandwiches, and 1 other sandwich at Panera Bread — then stares at the total: $71. For soup and sandwiches. Panera Bread is owned by a private equity firm.

BIRTH CONTROL IS WAY WORSE THAN THEY ARE TELLING YOU 😳 Casey Means went on TCN and exposed what it really does to the female body. Calling it a “disrespect of life” and exposing how it shuts down a woman’s “life-giving nature” which has serious repercussions that are hidden from the public. People in the industry profiting from ‘The Pill’ are losing their minds over this, which tells you everything you need to know. She’s exactly the kind of Surgeon General we need. @SenatorCollins @lisamurkowski confirm her and give us someone in that position who is willing to fight for life!

@mindoverweaknes Her feelings were hurt that he didn’t remember her name. Instead of saying, “that kind of hurt my feelings,” she reacted from a place of offense. Not emasculating men for making human fumbles is not a skill taught to modern women.
