$HIMS has now dropped to $29. Every time the stock price dips, I’m reminded of how Jeff Bezos perfectly explained Amazon’s stock movement: 🔹️ The stock is not the company, and the company is not the stock. 🔹️ Amazon’s stock once fell from $113 to $6. 🔹️ Yet, every single aspect of the business was improving. 🔹️ Even as the stock price moved in the wrong direction, everything inside the company was moving the right way. Know what you hold.

Why do so many dads look disappointed when it’s a girl 💔😌😭

A man on a dating app just told me dinner is “too much” for a first date. The male loneliness epidemic is entirely self inflicted.

She never intended for him to come inside her home. She used him to buy groceries for her kids. The plan was confirmed, a list was sent, money was spent, then she canceled once he arrived. She assumed he’d just say “keep the groceries.” She was wrong. That’s manipulation. Do you think she was genuine or she was using him?

I have some theories about why Singaporeans are less attractive than our cousins in the region: 1. Ultra-high population density. Highest of any country in the world, higher than HK. Imo this is the root problem, many of the following issues stem from it. 2. High population density means high air pollution, high noise pollution, elevated humidity/temperature (urban heat island effect), and lack of privacy. All of these factors cause elevated stress levels, which affects physical development. From what I've seen, these problems are significantly more pronounced in public housing estates than in private housing estates E.g., most public housing flats are no more than 30m away from a moderately busy road, which means significant air/noise pollution. Also public housing estates tend to have significant localized (in the immediate area around blocks) pollution from cooking/incense. I've measured in several locations (renting) - PM2.5 and VOC levels in public housing across the country tend to be quite bad relative to WHO recommended levels. 3. Most Sinkies try to hide from the noise and air pollution by closing everything and turning on the AC, but this causes a host of additional problems - exacerbated by our tiny rooms. E.g. I reckon most Sinkies sleep in 1600ppm+ CO2 rooms (not good at all). VOCs and other pollutants accumulate in our small, enclosed rooms too. Plus, using the AC in our dusty, hot, and humid environment means mould inevitably grows in many peoples' split AC units. This has actually been a major concern here - lots of anti-mould companies and some MSM articles about the problem.. 4. On top of low-quality sleep and high stress levels from environmental conditions, we also have a lack of sleep and high stress levels from work/school. Put it all together and you get an island of gremlins. Travelling overseas or even visiting friends in private estates is always trippy for me - a lot quieter, calmer, and often cooler. It should come as no surprise that our cousins across the region look far healthier than we do on average. Slight tangent on productivity: I've long been curious about why @govsingapore refuses to invest in living conditions at the state level. They pump stupid money into trying to "raise productivity" through training etc, and the ROI hasn't been great. But they refuse to put resources into figuring out healthy high-density living - which will raise productivity. You don't need a study to know that if people sleep better and have less stress from environmental issues you'll see improved productivity - we've all had amazing days after a good night's rest. Some may say: "well this is a private matter, people can fix up their own homes". That's just daft. Individuals don't have the resources to develop things like household ventilation systems that can fit in HDB flats and have fresh air exchange with a heat exchanger. Even if you somehow manage to import/develop such as system, it is not easy to get it approved by government bodies. Our country is a literal gentrified shithole with elites living in an alternative reality of their own imagination. They seem to think if that they "swap out local stock for higher quality human beings", the quality of people here will improve, but it's been decades since mass immigration began and newcomers in public estates don't seem to be faring much better 🤷‍♂️.
