The older i get, the more i realize that someone making time for you is one of the clearest signs they care. Everyone is busy. Everyone has responsibilities & their own battles to fight. So when someone consistently chooses to spend their time with you, checks on you, & makes space for you in their life, it means something. time is one thing we can never get back, & people don't give it away lightly.
To those pretending that these protests are fueled by social injustice, here's a taste of what social injustice truly looks like
五十岁的阿琳是巴黎第十区一家小餐馆的老板。
她是华裔二代，讲一口纯正的巴黎口音。
七年前，她从一位阿尔及利亚裔犹太老先生手里买下这家门面，一家人守着灶台过日子。
事发那天下午两点半。
街上突然乱了。
阿琳看着窗外的动静不对，立刻把店门口的铁卷帘门全部拉到底，反锁在店里。
她以为铁门至少能挡一阵。
很快，门外传来了沉重的撞击声。
外面聚了六七个人。
他们几个人一起发力，硬生生把拉到底的铁卷帘门从四面抬了起来。
随后是密集的打砸声，沿街玻璃被全部砸碎。
暴徒直接翻了进来。
阿琳甚至来不及退到后厨，迎面就挨了一顿重击，右眼被打出一大块乌青，当场倒地昏了过去。
等她恢复一点意识，眼前的一幕让她完全无法理解。
第一个从碎玻璃窗钻进餐馆的，是一个只有十二岁模样的男孩。
紧跟在小男孩后面的，是一群年轻女孩。
她们手里没有拿铁棍，拿的是大号购物袋。
有人翻收银台，有人砸冷柜，有人把货架上的酒水、调味品和后厨食材成箱往购物袋里装。
搬得走的装进袋子，搬不走的砸烂。
最后，有人在餐厅里放了一把火。
在巴黎苦心经营了七年的小馆子，不到半个小时就化成了焦黑的废墟。
七年每天起早贪黑攒下的家底，最后就毁在下午两点半，一群拎着购物袋的未成年人手里。
当街头秩序彻底失守，几道铁卷门保护不了任何普通人的生计。
A heartbreaking scene in #France, which is crumbling under the vandalism of the extreme left

Incredible reporting from the NYT.
The woman at Cornell did not consider herself a rape victim until she saw people making fun of her for being a slut.
She went to her "big sister" in her sorority and confessed that she had been a slut. Then while texting one of the men she reassured him that she enjoyed the first part of it and nothing illegal had happened.
Later, she texted him that she was traumatized. Not by the sex, but because everyone was laughing at her.
One week after her "rape," she was mad that she got disinvited from a party at the frathouse of her "rapists"!!!!!!!
Only a few days later, she decided that she was a "rape victim." Nobody would laugh at her anymore! She went from an object of ridicule and shame to a hero.
Once again, we need to have a serious conversation about how women are being lied to.
People do not respect sluts. Even at woke Ivy League universities. Human nature is what it is.
The lesson is women should protect their reputations by not doing things like this.
The lady in the #Cornell case has been named: #Lucy Craig. And this is her profile

A landmark Finnish study has found a sharp rise in psychiatric illness among adolescents following sex-alteration procedures.
The peer-reviewed study, published in Acta Paediatrica, tracked every young person under 23 who contacted Finland's gender clinics between 1996 and 2019.
A total 2,083 individuals were studied, with 16,643 matched controls. They were followed for up to 25 years.
Finland's health registers are mandatory, which means no one opts out — this is the complete national picture.
The numbers: psychiatric morbidity rose from 9.8% to 60.7% in adolescents who underwent feminising reassignment, and from 21.6% to 54.5% in masculinising reassignment.
Even after adjusting for prior psychiatric history, gender-referred adolescents faced five times the risk of male population controls, and three times the risk of female controls.
"Psychiatric needs do not subside after medical gender reassignment," the authors concluded.
Referrals after 2010 arrived sicker. 47.9% had already needed psychiatric treatment before their first clinic visit, against 15.3% among controls.
The authors' read: for some adolescents, gender distress may be secondary to other mental health challenges.
The evidence keeps mounting. The silencing continues anyway.
How many more adolescents will be told this is "care"?

A historic moment at the #SOTEU address.
European Commission President @vonderleyen opens the door for Canada to become the first associated member of the European Union.
"In short, we want to bring the relationship with Canada to the highest level possible," she said in the presence of Prime Minister @MarkJCarney.
