Hey, I just want to say that in case you did give therapists, SEVERAL times, a chance to be a solution, and they showed themselves to be charlatans, you may want to consider that they are absolutely not the end all be all that some people may sound them to be.

I don’t have the answer, but there are leads to follow still. Someone here was suggesting giving your time to help others. If possible, this may actually help. Or not… Then try something else. Just don’t think therapists know it all, because they sure as fuck don’t…

Also late to the party, but I feel like Manmade (_ https://manmadebrand.com/_) deserves a mention. Very comfortable and pleasant fabric. 👍🏻

I think I read recently that they had dropped their weights something like 45 minutes before the implosion. Seemingly indicating that they knew something was wrong and were trying to resurface. 🤔

Either way, not enough for a full Shrek movie. 🤷🏼‍♀️ (Sorry if it’s too soon)

Hopefully, this doesn’t break rule one and/or two too much. If so, let me know and I’ll delete.

I think I know a little more than you about French president Macron, but if so, not by much. So here’s the blind arguing with the blind!

Full disclaimer, this is a copypasta of the answer I got from an AI assistant:

Certainly! Let’s explore both perspectives on French President Emmanuel Macron:

1. Positive Perspective: Emmanuel Macron, as the French President, has made significant strides in positioning Europe as a more assertive global power. His vision for a united Europe, especially during the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, demonstrates his commitment to international stability and cooperation. Macron’s close cooperation with other world leaders, such as United States President Joe Biden, highlights his dedication to addressing global challenges, including climate change and defending democracy. Furthermore, his efforts to rejuvenate France and prepare it for crises underscore his determination to lead effectively on the world stage. Macron’s energy, international presence, and rhetorical vision have garnered him support both domestically and internationally.

2. Critical Perspective: However, Macron’s presidency has not been without controversy. His perceived elitism, stemming from his background in finance and top universities, has alienated some segments of French society. His centralization of power and occasional gaffes, like telling an unemployed gardener to “cross the road” to find a job, have fueled class-based resentment. Additionally, his polarizing effect during the “yellow vest” protests and the visceral rejection he faces from part of the population mirror the challenges he encounters as a leader. While Macron scores well in polls on competency and presidential stature, his presidency remains divisive.

In summary, Macron’s impact on the world stage is multifaceted, with supporters praising his global vision and critics highlighting his perceived elitism and class-based tensions. Ultimately, whether he is a good president for the world depends on individual perspectives and priorities.

That’s what I used to help myself determine if you were a little too harsh on him. I thought it could be beneficial to share, but like I started this response with, if this is frowned upon, I’ll happily remove this!

I’m not super familiar with the whole affair, but aren’t these subs the “dagger” that is stuck in France’s back?

Just curious.

I still don’t get it!

And that’s when everyone else goes… “to the moooooon!” 🐄🚀🌛

And by naval gunfire no less! At a stationary truck. At a check point!

The two dogs I had were easily taught to wait on the floor mat right by the door. Once someone wiped their paws with a towel they would proceed forward. 🤷🏼

Not cool Poland… 👎🏻

As someone with a medical cannabis prescription for chronic pain, and absolutely no medical background, I fully agree!

Holly crap Denmark! 😮

If you are from Denmark, I hope you are proud of your leader. I almost am for you! To me, Denmark is showing more leadership and courage then just about all the rest of the planet right now. 👍🏼🫡

Thank you!!

You just don’t have the login to it.

I think Sabine would like this.

Oh! Oh! I know this one!

That was really cool!

Thanks for sharing.

Holy hell! 😮

Thank you Germany. That’s a lot of gear!

I’m sorry, who’s the dumbass you are talking about?

As in… She had a normal vision?
