I require the knowledge I have acquired

Me I see my past relationships and life as a part of my life as being accredited. I require the knowledge I have acquired than to live in the now never seen it coming. The point of deeper learning on how you relate past knowledge to today, what relates, I need to know!

Things happen for no reason mind set disabled for people to take advantage of me! Your past is your job reference or your education it makes you who you are, your mentality, personality your dictionary behind you to help you see the poop hitting the fan than to stand there wondering how it got on you you didn't remember to duck and cover you didn't read the dictionary behind you. 

Living in the now minute by minute gives you anxiety as you can't relate to the now issues you have no reference. Also the now changes minute by minute fizzes away in the moment. The future is not stable need to be stable by knowing things. Your past is called learning. What have you learned? “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it,” https://liberalarts.vt.edu/magazine/2017/history-repeating.html Also know in your past or whos past pathed the way! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXngbzatfIE

Good or bad wherever you go, there you are. Because you are. It's better than not, so live because life is short likened to me being in my 70's in the future walking on a burning planet. Live while you can reincarnate later! Life never ends! Things like that!

"If a problem is fixable, if a situation is such that you can do something about it, then there is no need to worry. If it's not fixable, then there is no help in worrying. There is no benefit in worrying whatsoever." (Dalai Lama)

"All things are free-flowing, untrammeled, what bondage is there, what entanglement? You create your own difficulty and ease therein. The mind source pervades the ten directions with one continuity; those of the most excellent faculties understand naturally." (Tzu-hu)

Amor fati is a Latin phrase that may be translated as "love of fate" or "love of one's fate". It is used to describe an attitude in which one sees everything that happens in one's life, including suffering and loss, as good or, at the very least, necessary.

Note to learn from Amor fati not to be in view as a way to have people take advantage of you because you don't know what's going on around you Horse blinds? Was a way to give the viewpoint of the dark ages a peasant to ignore things around them so they can focus on the task at hand making the king money and to not have a social evolution or to know because it would make a revolution. A form of control thus you want them to not know! A peasant thing!

Minimum wage petition in Oklahoma

Minimum wage petition in Oklahoma because nothing helps more than broke people! Causing bankruptcies to business not willing to lower the prices to match the poverty wages of the town anything is better than nothing. Having people not able to afford their education and all things bad so it's best to go up not down!

"Raising the minimum wage even over a span of five years would kill jobs, especially in smaller businesses in rural parts of the state." Like how it killed all of us the last times it went up we all must of died and got reincarnated!

Rural? They need to get brought up we all don't go down to their level! Why are they not brought up yet? Well a trailer park on fire has a low cost of living doesn't mean you would want to live there. Living low puts one in harms way into natural selection. If you are suffering you are not being successful nor many around you it's like being in quicksand making all-around bad employees and badly living people!

Trans - Teen Brain: Behavior, Problem Solving, and Decision Making.

Children are not adults! It is hard for children to face adult issues not being able to understand them really! Fear conditioning is not a good environment for making decisions about life changes with. Parents need not to carter to their child's fantasy they should really go to a Psychologist to help their child thru the hard time in their life till they get developed!

Noted in "Statutory rape is defined by statute as an act of sexual intercourse with a person under the age of consent." Can't consent they are not able adults would take advantage of a child running on guided more by the emotional and reactive amygdala! To protect a child from a predator! Who is the predator the child is facing who is trying to take advantage of the child playing along with something of a fantasy? What is the age of consent for a child to do damage to their own body? Why even?

"Pictures of the brain in action show that adolescents' brains work differently than adults when they make decisions or solve problems. Their actions are guided more by the emotional and reactive amygdala and less by the thoughtful, logical frontal cortex. Research has also shown that exposure to drugs and alcohol during the teen years can change or delay these developments." https://www.aacap.org/AACAP/Families_and_Youth/Facts_for_Families/FFF-Guide/The-Teen-Brain-Behavior-Problem-Solving-and-Decision-Making-095.aspx

Nova or an endings begining!

I had a dream once coming out of a store looking up at the night sky and I saw a light get brighter in the sky. Flash to seeing a president and the vice and some people where talking about it's getting bigger after they nuked it. Sending a nuke to take out something that was coming at us, in view the issue was something like a comet coming toward us. Dream like a warning not to nuke it that would make it come at us!

"While a supernova is the explosive death of a massive star, a nova refers to the sudden, brief explosion from a collapsed star known as a white dwarf." - "Once the nova peaks in brightness, it will be as if a new star has appeared one that’s visible for a few days without any equipment and a little over a week with binoculars before it dims and disappears from sight for another 80 years or so." https://www.cnn.com/2024/03/19/world/t-coronae-borealis-nova-new-star-scn/index.html

Nothing bad here, another nova in the sky to look at. The point of like a natural selection over all the time in galaxy everything had time to crash or burn to be inline with a working galaxy!

Or the old Gnostic saying, If you want to know about the ending, it's where the beginning is.

Stupid with stupid makes more stupid - You cant be creative if you are fearful

Just because they are stupid doesn't mean you are to be stupid with them. There tends to be a need like a check people do sometimes looking around see how well adjusted others are than not. As in when I was in school if I had a issue I would ask the other kids and ask if this was a concern of theirs and I would write down if the ayes or neys have it. If no one is concerned then it's only a concern of mine I would let it go to get well adjusted in a positive environment.

You know nothing helps more than a labor force full of fear mongered people that never made enough money for a education with generations of family members rolling in quicksand. Hard to get out of that and so is why small towns are small they can't have anything. Can't be creative sitting there looking at the future with no future.

Mostly they need their A$$ kicked by society, to shake the nuts from the tree, forced social mobility a naturalistic point of view like in time faster than seeing a broken down 80's Ford on the side of the road with the hood up burned up force to get a better car that doesn't leave oil everywhere. Make the air smell better don't have to walk around it all the time. The way life should be! I don't have the luxury of buying a domestic car that I would have to fix all the time frigidity, frigidity with the hood up. I have to get to my destination on time I buy reliable cars it's a investment in yourself. But always lease domestic cars so you don't get stuck with the cost of repairs! Point there is a correction in time a burn and grow like thing. Even the most fear mongered people burn up in time, they will have to do better for themselves as most of the others pass them by!

***One of the saddest things about our current state of affairs is how much time is expended on imaginary fears largely manufactured by manipulative media, MAGA-poisoned pols, and the always dependable religious nuts and conspiracy mongers. These rants and performative stunts have long passed the point of novelty or entertainment. 

They've also become so pervasive that smart leaders can no longer ignore them. Because when people are confused or lose confidence in their leaders and institutions, they become driven by their fears instead of their hopes. And in startups especially, it's all about hopes and dreams for the world, not fears of and for it.

This increasingly dire situation -- where team members in firms of all sizes are losing faith -- would be plenty painful if these garbage conversations, infantile behaviors, and trashings of the rule of law were confined to D.C. Republicans making fools of themselves certainly isn't the worst thing that could happen in a Congress now led by fools, fascists, frauds, and football coaches. It's actually something of a relief that this crew couldn't pass a bill that had any prospect of becoming law. Nor could they fashion a budget that made even the slightest sense if their lives -- instead of their notoriety, incomes, and fundraising -- depended on it.

But when the nonstop noise begins to impact our own employees' attitudes and our businesses' prospects, it's another matter entirely. When you walk around and see more of your people worrying than working, arguing about nonsense instead of advancing the company, and focusing on a foreboding future, it's time for you to step in, like it or not, because there's nothing more frightening than scared people. https://www.inc.com/howard-tullman/you-cant-be-creative-if-you-are-fearful.html

College and workforce changes!

"For decades, not having a college degree has often been a barrier for workers seeking a higher-level, better-paying job. But more employers are now saying they’re willing to hire them." But those that don't have the college degree where the first ones to get laid off. College is also seen as being accredited as in knowing better what they are doing than not. It's better to have college as it makes higher income than just a high school. Even there was issues about your college degree is only worth the paper it's printed on. Less resources for education lower spending etc. 

But post COVID-19 all plagues come with a rebound up and down sort of a chaos theory light. Looks like a job skill shakeup till normality in time. Things will get better it's a rebound!

"Why the change of heart? There are several factors. But lurking over all of them is a demographic reality: The falling US birth rate will produce fewer workers in the years ahead to replace the number of workers retiring."

"Additionally, employers are increasingly aware that the skills needed to do many jobs don’t necessarily require a four-year degree, and that competent workers can be trained in needed skills as they arise." https://www.cnn.com/2024/03/08/success/no-college-degree-options-better-jobs/index.html

The white rural rage, like a slow moving hornets nest!

It's not they are lazy just that they could never afford an education so going into generations of family members they don't have much. The terms 40 watt city, dark ages, big city bright lights is the point of enlightenment or the lack of!

People in rural towns seem to like their suffering too much it holds back the whole town! Can't go forward as conservatives are against their own people. Get rid of Obamacare, abortion rights etc. degrading to a time people lived badly. No social mobility, living like their parents with inflation lower then their parents. Conservative no innovation. 

People living badly is a labor force issue and a towns issue as they vote against themselves. Always normal in rural locals what do they have, obviously they are not succeeding? So less to have is less for everyone else! That needs to change why are these people not brought up? Yet are you to suffer with them? Their rage is like a slow moving hornets nest and is what you get! https://www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnbc-opinion/trump-white-voters-2024-election-rcna141156

Q: What is conservatism?

A: Conservatism is the domination of society by an aristocracy.

Q: What is wrong with conservatism?

A: Conservatism is incompatible with democracy, prosperity, and civilization in general. It is a destructive system of inequality and prejudice that is founded on deception and has no place in the modern world. https://pages.gseis.ucla.edu/faculty/agre/conservatism.html

How is the US economy doing? Thank You Brandon!

It's all good but your wages are not growing enough. Inflation is normal from the rebound of a plague! After death people like to be happy so up the spending! Not fair to low waged people. They need to get brought up! Trumps at 77 Biden at 81 much the same and who cares it's about who the vice is that matters if the president passes away! Age is not a issue action is more than age! https://usafacts.org/state-of-the-union/economy/

Low wage trap the old issue of a labor shortage

The old issue of a labor shortage. But more of a wage shortage for the ones in the bottom. Many moved up the ladder to better jobs leaving the lower really low as the bottom have to fill the labor force. "Drag a $100 bill through a trailer camp and there's no telling what you will find." - James Carville. What would be reasonably unhirable for that time are what places are looking at today to end a shortage in the workplace. The bottom dropped off! They where fired for a reason only to be looked at for a job without reason! Workplaces need to know what they are getting and make a effort for the better than to have workers in a trap!

~~~~This pattern of denial and neglect hurts workers in ways that have profound societal costs. No matter how hard or how long they work, many low-wage workers cannot climb out of poverty. We studied the fortunes of 181,891 workers who started low-wage jobs in 2012, and we found that five years later 60% of them remained stuck in such positions. People who had managed to escape those jobs had most often done so by quitting industries such as hospitality, food services, and retail, which are classic low-wage traps. Across industries, women were overrepresented in low-wage jobs and most likely to stay impoverished.

The pattern also inflicts all sorts of direct and indirect costs on companies, including lower retention and higher absenteeism, more overtime, a reliance on staffing agencies to provide temporary workers, constant recruitment and training of new employees, a lowering of morale, a loss of institutional and process knowledge, a decline in customer goodwill, a damaged reputation among job seekers, stagnant or lower rates of productivity and less revenue. https://hbr.org/2023/05/the-high-cost-of-neglecting-low-wage-workers

Loving memory of my partner!

A song she said was her song to me. "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing." And she ended up with Alzheimer's! Knowing if back then today she would see it being the sarcasm, joke like that she would do time to time.

Accepting the Wife’s Boyfriend!

  

A wife having a lover is really not a bad thing being the point is, it should clause calmness aimed long term. I hate short term relationships so my mindset is long term. Nothing worse than being a married woman's lover only for to snap out of her midlife crisis embarrassed about how she was acting telling you to go. Never happened to me would but more likely I would be holding onto her leg begging her to stay but the point is to accept each other for the better. 

A wife's lover is not about the sex. That would be her will not her husband or her lovers will coming naturally when that time comes if it does. The wife does not want another kid and cost these days. Unless she does then, me I would be willing for a love child, that's ok because life is short to not accept walking through the disarray of life unknown together to the light of a new day together!

~~~~One misconception about polyamory is that it’s just an excuse for promiscuity or infidelity. This assumption couldn’t be further from the truth; in fact, transparency and trust are cornerstones for maintaining healthy non-monogamous relationships. Another widespread myth is that people who choose this way of life are incapable of committing to one person or forming deep emotional connections with their partners. In reality, most polyamorous individuals maintain strong bonds with each partner while appreciating different aspects of their personalities and sharing unique experiences together.

Overcoming jealousy and insecurity can be a daunting task, especially when it comes to non-monogamous relationships. It’s important to recognize that these feelings are normal and valid, but they don’t have to control your relationship. One way to address jealousy is through open and honest communication with your partner(s). Expressing your concerns and fears can lead to understanding rather than resentment.

Another helpful strategy is identifying the root cause of your jealousy or insecurity. This may require some self-reflection and critical thinking, as oftentimes, our insecurities stem from past experiences or societal norms. By recognizing these underlying factors, you can begin to take steps toward addressing them head-on. For example, if you feel jealous of your wife’s boyfriend because you think he’s “better” in some way, remind yourself that comparisons are not productive or fair. Instead, focus on building trust and intimacy within your own relationship with her.

It’s also important to establish clear boundaries with all parties involved in the non-monogamous relationship. This ensures everyone is aware of what is acceptable behavior and what crosses a line for each individual involved. These boundaries should be revisited regularly as needs or preferences change over time. In navigating these complex dynamics, remember that vulnerability is key – allowing yourself to express emotions without fear of judgment fosters deeper connections with those around us. https://www.unfinishedman.com/my-journey-to-polyamory-how-i-learned-to-accept-my-wifes-boyfriend
