More robots, less home office, donkey meat, face recognition the whole lot

This scene has always made me wonder, and I think I've found how it might be explained: Podrick Payne had never been with a woman before. He was a squire, and squires were expected to be chaste and pure. But Podrick was also a young man, and he had his needs. Podrick entered the room in the brothel with Tyrion and Bronne and three prostitutes would later appears one after the other. The prostitutes were all young and beautiful. They smiled at Podrick and invited him to join them on the bed. Podrick was overwhelmed. He didn't know what to do. "I've never done this before," he said. The prostitutes laughed. "That's okay," one of them said. "We'll show you how." Podrick sat down on the bed with the prostitutes. He was so nervous that he could barely breathe. The prostitutes started to undress him. "What do you like?" one of them asked. "I don't know," Podrick said. "I've never done this before." The pr

The world is insane, but we pretend it is still 'business as usual\ We keep up appearances, even though it's killing us.  We go to school, work, drive cars, take pills, and go to clubs, all while our planet is dying and Armageddon is looming.  We're a society of walking illusions, waiting for the end. We're spending trillions of dollars on weapons and war, while millions of people go hungry and homeless. We're destroying the environment at an alarming rate, even though we know it's unsustainable. We're creating a society where the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. We're addicted to social media and technology, which are harming our mental and physical health. We're living in a world where mass shootings and other tragedies have become commonplace.

Egyptian Comedian Bassem Youssef:  Israel Is "Shooting Fish In A Barrel And Gets Annoyed By The Splashes"

You know what they say? "That song slaps harder than Will Smith"

 

The Kali Yuga is the fourth and final age of the Hindu cycle of time. It is a time of darkness and destruction, and it is said to be the worst of the four ages. Paco Rabanne believed that the Kali Yuga would end in 2025 AD. He believed that the Kali Yuga is a time of great spiritual and material darkness, and that it is a time when the world is on the brink of destruction. However, Rabanne also believed that the Kali Yuga is an opportunity for spiritual transformation. He believed that if we can overcome the darkness and destruction of the Kali Yuga, we can usher in a new age of peace and enlightenment. And a new age will start, the age of Homo Spiritualis. Rabanne's ideas about the Kali Yuga are controversial, but they are also thought-provoking. He challenges us to think about the world in a new way, and to consider the possibility that we are living in the last days of the world. A time of great upheaval and change. The old order would crumble, and a new world would be born. A t

The cycle of violence in Gaza is a vicious one. Each attack by Hamas leads to a more devastating Israeli response. And each Israeli response leads to more anger and resentment among the Palestinian people. The vicious attack of Hamas on the rave party in Gaza on October 8, 2023 and the following kidnapping of around 150 people is a horrific and deeply disturbing event. There is no justification for violence against innocent civilians, regardless of their religion, ethnicity, or nationality. The attack on the rave party was a particularly cowardly act, as it targeted a group of young people who were simply enjoying themselves. The Gaza conflict is a microcosm of the larger conflict between Israel and the Palestinians. It is a conflict that is rooted in injustice and inequality. The only sensible way to achieve a lasting peace in the region is to establish a two-state solution, with a secure and viable Palestinian state alongside Israel. Gaza is a land of perpetual war. It has been under

 I will try to summarize latest events, to see how the future will enfold current news trends: The war in Ukraine: The war in Ukraine still continues to dominate the news cycle, with no end in sight. Russia has made gains in the east of the country, but Ukrainian forces are putting up a fierce resistance. The war has had a devastating impact on Ukraine, with millions of people displaced and thousands killed. The global cost of living crisis: The cost of living is rising around the world, driven by factors such as high energy prices and supply chain disruptions. This is putting a strain on household budgets and businesses. Governments are struggling to find ways to help people cope with the rising cost of living. The climate crisis: The climate crisis is becoming increasingly urgent, with more extreme weather events occurring around the world. This is causing widespread damage and displacement. Governments are under pressure to take more action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mit

Modern worldwide corporations would likely see climate change not so much as a problem but as an opportunity.  They would see it as a way to make money by selling products and services that help people adapt to the changing climate. For example, corporations might try to sell solar panels, electric vehicles, or flood insurance.  They might also sell products and services that help people reduce their carbon footprint, such as energy-efficient appliances or home insulation. Corporations would likely argue that climate change is a challenge, but it is also an opportunity for businesses to grow and create new jobs.  They would say that the government should support businesses that are developing new technologies and solutions to climate change. Of course, corporations would also be aware of the risks associated with climate change. They would know that climate change could lead to more extreme weather events, which could damage property and infrastructure. They would also know that climat

We've known about global warming for decades, but we've done jack shit about it. The generations X, Z, and Millennial have all grown up knowing that the planet is warming, and they've all been told that we need to do something about it. But we haven't done anything. We've all just sat back and watched the world burn. We've watched the ice caps melt, the sea levels rise, and the weather become more extreme. And we've done nothing. Why? Because we're all too busy with our own lives. We're too busy working, too busy raising families, too busy trying to make ends meet. We don't have time to worry about the planet. But the truth is, we can't afford not to worry about the planet. Global warming is a real threat, and it's only going to get worse if we don't do something about it. So what are we going to do? Are we going to sit back and watch the world burn? Or are we going to stand up and do something? I don't know about you, but I'm

"So, I have this blog, right? And I know nobody reads it. I mean, I've been doing this for years, and I've never had a single comment or like. But that's okay. I'm fine with it. In fact, I think it's kind of funny. I mean, think about it. I'm the only person who reads my blog. That means I'm my own audience. I'm the star of my own show. I'm like a one-man band, except I'm also the audience. And you know what? It's kind of liberating. I don't have to worry about what anyone else thinks. I can write whatever I want, and I don't have to worry about offending anyone. So, yeah, nobody reads my blog. But that's okay. I'm fine with it. In fact, I think it's kind of funny. I'm my own audience, and that's all I need."

We are living in a time of great danger. The liberal order is crumbling. The climate is changing. And the gap between the rich and the poor is widening. In this time of crisis, we need to find new ways to organize and resist.  We need to build a movement that is based on solidarity , not individualism.  We need to create a society that is based on compassion , not greed. We can do this. We have the power to change the world. But it will not be easy. It will require courage, sacrifice, and determination. We are up to the task. We are the generation that will save the world.  We are the generation that will build a better future. We will not give up. We will not surrender.  We will not back down. We will fight for what we believe in. We will fight for justice. We will fight for peace.  We will fight for a better world.

 So, they're saying that global warming is real, right? And that it's caused by humans burning fossil fuels. Well, I don't know about you, but I'm not too worried about it. After all, the planet has been through a lot worse than this. There was that time when the dinosaurs got wiped out. And that time when the ice age came and went. And that time when the oceans boiled away. And yet, here we are. Still alive. So I'm not too worried about global warming. I mean, sure, it might get a little warmer. But it's not like we're all going to melt or anything. We'll just have to adapt. We'll move to cooler places. We'll wear less clothes. We'll drink more water. We'll figure it out. In the meantime, I'm going to enjoy the warmer weather. I'm going to go swimming more often. I'm going to plant a garden. I'm going to take more walks in the park. I'm going to enjoy the little things. Because who knows? Maybe global warming is a goo

"So, there's this guy named Jesus, right? And he's the son of God. And he comes down to Earth to save us from our sins. And he does this by dying on the cross. And then he comes back to life. And now he's in heaven. And he's watching over us. And if we're good, we'll go to heaven when we die. And if we're bad, we'll go to hell. But here's the thing: I don't understand this. Why does God need a son? Why can't he just save us himself? And why does he need to die? Why can't he just wave his magic wand and make everything better? And then there's the whole heaven and hell thing. Why does God have to punish people who are bad? Why can't he just forgive them? And why does he have to send them to a place of eternal suffering? I don't know, man. It all seems kind of messed up to me. But hey, what do I know? I'm just a comedian. I'm not a theologian. But I will say this: I'm glad I'm not the one who has to figure t

Sister Justine sat in the quiet of her cell, her hands clasped in her lap. She had been a nun for over 4 years, but lately she had been struggling with her faith. She had always believed in God, but now she was starting to doubt. She thought about all the things she had seen and experienced in her time as a nun. She had seen people suffer and die, and she had seen the evil that humans were capable of. It was hard to believe that a loving God would allow such things to happen. She also thought about the hypocrisy of the Church. She had seen priests and nuns who were corrupt and immoral. It made her wonder if the Church was really a force for good in the world. Sister Justine sighed and closed her eyes. She didn't know what to believe anymore. She wanted to have faith, but she was struggling. She decided to pray for guidance. She opened her eyes and looked up at the crucifix on the wall. "God," she said, "I don't know what to believe. I'm struggling with my fai

 

Africa is a continent with a wealth of natural resources, a growing population, and a young workforce. As a result, Africa is increasingly being courted by countries from all over the world. China is Africa's largest trading partner, and it has invested heavily in the continent in recent years. China is interested in Africa's natural resources, such as oil, gas, and minerals. China is also interested in Africa's market potential, as the continent's population is growing rapidly. Russia is also interested in Africa's natural resources, and it has been increasing its military and political presence on the continent in recent years. Russia is seen as a potential counterweight to Western influence in Africa. The United States has a long history of involvement in Africa, and it is still a major investor on the continent. The United States is interested in Africa's natural resources, but it is also interested in Africa's democratic development. France has a long h

The current status quo is characterized by a lack of desire for anything. There is a growing trend of people refraining from traveling and shopping in order to mitigate climate change. This leads to a sense of despair, although some individuals are beginning to contemplate ways to slow down the inevitable decline. Numerous warning signs are evident today, indicating that the entire ecosystem is suffering due to past mistakes. Assuming that there are still individuals in society who are ignoring the signs, it is important to recognize that embracing a new way of life entails ceasing excessive consumption, reducing travel, abandoning selfishness, and actively fostering natural communities. However, these actions contradict the current interests of corporations and establishments. While purchasing electric cars may be presented as a solution, it is important to acknowledge that this is not a genuine fix. The misconception that one can continue to believe in constant growth indefinitely, w

This summer 2023 continues to break weather records due to persistent lack of rainfall. The intensifying drought is causing concerns for food companies as they actively seek solutions to prevent crop reduction and price increases. Farmers and food entrepreneurs are distressed as they observe field vegetables drying up, while one weather record after another continues to be broken (refer to charts)."Spring spinach yield has decreased by 20 percent".  "We've already seen more than a 10 percent loss in peas, even as the harvest continues. The losses for summer cauliflower and onions exceed 15 percent." Sowing parsnip and carrot has become challenging due to the seeds' struggle to root. For seven years, farmers throughout Europe have observed the continent's increasing aridity. "Compared to previous years, we require 20 percent more land to produce the same quantity of food,"  This declining supply is driving up vegetable prices. Vegetable processo

There has been no president for a year, a political deadlock exists in parliament, and banks have prevented people from withdrawing their own money. There are other countries in a state of collapse, and there are parallels between the turmoil in these  nations.  The root cause of this chaos is deep-seated corruption.  It's disheartening to realize that the real culprits often flee to stable, wealthy countries, depositing their ill-gotten gains in Swiss or UK banks.  This money, stolen from millions of hardworking individuals, leaves behind a trail of despair that drives people to desperate measures.  Currently, escalating poverty is posing a threat to even the wealthiest countries.  Consequently, most refugees who manage to cross borders and establish themselves are likely to confront harsh realities.  The world, therefore, needs an increase in compassion and humanity.

The World Bank has ranked the Lebanese crisis among the top ten worst economic crises globally since the 19th century, potentially placing it within the top three.  The price of bread, a staple food, is frequently revised upwards multiple times a month, while fuel prices adjust twice daily. The ongoing economic and financial crisis that began in October 2019 has been further aggravated by two significant events: the COVID-19 outbreak and the massive Port of Beirut explosion in August 2020. Among these three crises, the economic crisis has had the most substantial and enduring negative impact. https://unverredeau.com/en/liban/

What is the current narrative? We are been brought so many evidence of coming conflicts, coming floods, and forest fires ; that nobody in his right mind would try to participate in this economic growth anymore. If you have money in the bank, well, brace for impact and if you don't ... times are going to be tough for you in the next decades. There was a time in the early years of this new century, where we may have had a chance at a prosperous harmonious World, but it really looks like we are heading to a Mad Max kind of World, Apocalyptic madness, dystopian future is no future. Well, this is not going to help my productivity this week.

Every time I wash my old car, it seems to rain; this observation leads me to seriously consider that my car possesses some magical influence over the weather.  Extending this notion, given that my car is relatively old - 15 years to be precise - and part of a discontinued series, I could logically conclude that global warming is caused by the gradual disappearance of these "magical" cars.

With the fast advance of AI and virtual world full immersion, we may predict that in the next 20 years, we will have access to glasses and contact lenses connected to neural implants.  These devices will enable us to perceive our individual realities according to our preferences.  This technological "advancement" may lead to a shift in societal norms, where individuals with appealing personalities, regardless of physical appearance, could dominate the dating and matrimonial scene.  Consequently, those who rely solely on their looks while maintaining unpleasant attitudes may find themselves less favored.  Alongside this shift, a relationship will become completely irrelevant, since each partner will project their ideal traits on the other partner, not asking them to change anything physically - the emphasis on personality over physical attractiveness will prevail.  We are reaching ' black mirror ' level of dystopia. Either for the first time in human history, there wil

Feeling a sense of emptiness or void can be challenging, but there are several strategies that you can try to help combat those feelings. Here are a few suggestions: Self-reflection : Take some time to reflect on the possible causes of your emptiness. Consider if there are any specific events, relationships, or aspects of your life that may be contributing to these feelings. Understanding the root causes can be an essential step in addressing them. Seek support : Reach out to trusted friends, family members, or a therapist to discuss what you're experiencing. Sometimes, talking about your feelings with someone who can listen and offer support can provide valuable insights and help alleviate some of the emptiness you're feeling. Engage in activities you enjoy : Find activities that bring you joy or a sense of fulfillment. Engaging in hobbies, pursuing interests, or participating in activities that align with your values and passions can help fill the void and create a sense of p

Dear Apple Computer CEO, I am writing to you today on behalf of my readers, who are (mostly) consumers who have purchased iPhones and other Apple products. I am writing to you to express my concerns about the company's apparent practice of planned obsolescence. Planned obsolescence is a business strategy in which products are designed to become obsolete or fail after a certain period of time, in order to encourage consumers to buy new products. This practice is often used in the technology industry, where new products are constantly being released. There is evidence that Apple engages in planned obsolescence in a number of ways. For example, the company has been accused of slowing down older iPhones with software updates. This has led to complaints from consumers who have found that their phones are no longer working as well after they have been updated. Apple has also been accused of making it difficult to repair older iPhones . The company has been criticized for its use of prop

  A nun is a woman who vows to dedicate her life to religion, typically living under vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience in the enclosure of a monastery or convent.  The term is often used interchangeably with religious sisters who do take simple vows but live an active vocation of prayer and charitable work.

This is serious matter, people are suffering big corporations are poisoning entire area, and getting away with it This is not acceptable

What Jordan Peterson is saying basically, is that the chatGPT revolution means students, professors, writers, programmers, and many other engineers are going to be out of business  youtu.be/V-hB-4fnqtM Maybe we should ask chatHPT how to resolve the global warming issue ...
