SOUNDS RIGHT:

Here is the deeper blackpill, men's brains literally prune the circuits for expecting care. The male brain, around adolescence, begins to treat social neglect as baseline, not as trauma. The same way a child raised in a loud factory learns to sleep through the noise. https://t.co/NwdYDRtCjc pic.twitter.com/dXjphmEVuS

I remember my friend Norah Vincent said that when she lived as a man, the first thing she noticed was that suddenly nobody seemed to care about her. As a woman, even a fairly masculine, not terribly attractive woman, people showed concern if she was carrying heavy packages, if she tripped and fell on the sidewalk, if she just looked sad. As a man, bupkis. You’re on your own, buddy.

TRUMP: US Will Obtain Iran’s Enriched Uranium.

In an interview released Sunday on “Full Measure with Sharyl Attkisson,” Trump said the U.S. is closely surveilling Iran’s nuclear facilities through capabilities developed under Space Force and warned Tehran that any movement involving the uranium would immediately trigger a response.

“We’ll get that at some point, whatever we want,” Trump said. “We have it surveilled. You know, I did a thing called Space Force, and they are watching.

“If somebody walked in, they can tell you his name, his address, the number of his badge.

“If anybody got near the place, we will know about it, and we’ll blow them up.”

After seeing what US/IDF forces were able to accomplish before the ceasefire, Tehran ought to believe him.

Still, Trump should have named it Starfleet.
