No matter how much people talk about the psychology behind gambling addiction and how many warning stories are shared people will always believe they are above the program. The same goes for alcohol, drugs and promiscuity.

Dear Africans,
It is in our best interest that we don't get over slavery and Colonialism!

somehow no one was calculating the probability of a sex blind admission before, when almost zero women were accepted
17,000 men apply to MIT
8900 women apply to MIT
600 men were accepted
612 women were accepted
If we assume male and female applicants to MIT are roughly the same, the probability this happens by chance, let alone every year for a while
The probability of a sex blind admission process creating this result is 1 in 4 × 10³¹

honestly no woman who has genuinely understood feminism has ever regretted it. if you think feminism is something women should feel embarrassed or regretful about, you probably never understood it in the first place. hope that helps.
I genuinely think a time will come when many women will regret supporting the version of feminism being glorified today.
And I’m not talking about equal rights, opportunities, or financial independence.
I’m talking about pseudo-feminism that teaches women they don’t need a man, compromising is weakness, making sacrifices is losing yourself, and that earning money means you should never have to adjust for anyone.
Where respecting your husband is called submission, putting effort into a relationship is considered desperate, and walking away is celebrated more than working things out.
And I think many women will realise how damaging this mindset was, perhaps in their late thirties or forties, when they look back and understand that they were taught to see partnership as a burden rather than something worth building.
I genuinely believe that day is not very far away.

If you want to understand why Africa is like this, just look at most of our male leaders.
This is why colonizers had to kill matriarchy in Africa. Because women leaders were more competent. They were accountable. You couldn't just bribe them to sell the whole village.
So what did colonizers do? They replaced them with greedy, corrupt men. Men they could control. And that system never left.
Look at the King of Eswatini.
His people don't have roads. They don't have hospitals. 70% of the country lives in poverty. Eswatini has the highest HIV rate on earth and people are dying of hunger.
And what is the King doing?
The man has 15 wives. He spent $24.4 million to buy 19 Rolls-Royces for them. 19! Delivered in trucks like he was sharing rice. In a country where people can't afford bread.
And that was not even enough. That same year, he bought 79 BMWs. Then weeks later, another 120 BMWs. Meanwhile he already had 20 Mercedes Maybachs and a private jet he bought for himself for his 50th birthday.
This is the mentality. Let the people suffer, let them die of AIDS and poverty, as long as the wives have Rolls-Royces.
This is the African male leadership we inherited. And until we change it, nothing will change.
在非洲南部的内陆小国斯威士兰(Eswatini),至今保留着全非洲最后一个绝对君主专制王权。
这个国家全国有超过 60% 的老百姓生活在贫困线以下,平均寿命不到 60 岁;但统治该国的国王姆斯瓦蒂三世,每年都要举办盛大的“芦苇节”选秀,目前已迎娶了 15 位王妃,生下了30 多个王子公主。
为了不让后宫的王妃们因为争风吃醋吵架,这位国王干出了一件让劳斯莱斯英国原厂都看呆了的团购壮举:他一次性向劳斯莱斯下了 19 台定制版幻影与库里南(价值超 1500 万美元) 的大单,外加 120 台全新宝马轿车与摩托车浩浩荡荡运进王宫,给每位王妃配齐一台专属劳斯莱斯和开道警车队!
面对全国民众的抗议,王室直接通过紧急法令:严禁任何本国公民在街上用手机拍摄国王的豪车车队,违者直接按危害国家安全抓捕判刑!

Male soldiers from every country, in every war, from every place in time make Women and children their primary victims and call it "collateral damage". Men are evil.
1945年,日军轮奸了黄美英,紧接着在她的下身灌入辣椒水,割去了她的双眼和双乳。
当日军想要将黄美英的尸体拖出去时,她的头却猛的一抬,喊出了一句令日军毛骨悚然的话....
黄美英1919年出生在广东江门台山一个穷乡僻壤的村子,家里穷得叮当响,父母靠种地打工勉强养活一大家子。
她从小就懂事,早早帮着干农活,捡柴火、洗衣服啥的都行。
虽然没钱上学,她总偷偷跑到村塾外头听课,记下些字,晚上自己琢磨。
长大点,她看到日军到处烧杀抢掠,村里人日子过得提心吊胆,就下定决心不能坐着等死。
1937年抗日战争打响,她加入村里的文艺宣传队,唱歌跳舞鼓动大家抗日,很快就成了骨干。
那些年,她不光表演,还帮着募捐粮食衣服送前线,挨家挨户动员妇女参加后援会。
她的表现让组织看中,1940年她正式入党,当上西村妇女抗敌后援会会长。
那时候,她每天忙得脚不沾地,组织妇女缝衣服、做鞋子,支持游击队打仗。
她的热心肠在村里传开了,大家都说她是靠得住的人。
黄美英的工作越来越深入,她不光在后方,还冒险去前线帮着抬伤员,几次差点挨炮弹。
1941年,她认识了新会县委书记陈明江,两人志同道合,都一心扑在抗日上。
陈明江知书达理,领导游击队打了不少胜仗,黄美英觉得他靠谱,两人很快就走到一起,1942年结了婚。
组织上照顾他们,把她调到县委帮忙,两人一起领导新鹤游击队。
这支队伍从90多人发展到200多,多次偷袭日伪军,抢粮食、打据点,让敌人头疼不已。
黄美英负责政工和后勤,带头募捐,动员群众,游击队成了粤中抗日的中坚力量。
日军恨他们入骨,派侦察兵到处搜情报。
1944年,他们成立粤中纵队第二团,陈明江当政委,黄美英任政工队长,继续打击敌人。
那些日子,他们夫妻俩并肩作战,日子苦但有奔头,谁知1945年元旦,祸事来了。
那年头,日军败局已定,但还死撑着,到处搜捕抗日力量。
黄美英的游击队在松山附近被侦察兵发现,大批日军围上来,队伍被迫突围转移到西涌村。
村民们赶紧藏他们,可日军追得紧,把村子围住,用机枪威胁全村人,说不交出黄美英就全杀光。
黄美英不忍百姓遭殃,自己站出来被抓。
日军知道她是陈明江老婆,以为能撬出情报,先好言劝降,她一口回绝。
敌人恼了,开始用刑。
先是轮奸她几十人,试图摧毁她的意志,她咬牙不吭声。
接着灌沸腾辣椒水到嘴里,下身也灌,灼烧得她全身抽搐,还用电刑,肌肉痉挛,坐老虎凳,钻心疼。
她被折磨得奄奄一息,但啥都没说。
日军更狠,用刀在她双乳上割口子,浇开水烫分离皮肉,撸下来玩乐,还剜掉双眼,血肉模糊。
她忍着巨痛,不低头。
日军见她还不招,决定处死刑,带到摇铃山刑场施剐刑。
一刀刀割她身上肉,敌人脸上还带笑,以为能让她求饶。
她身上血流成河,痛得昏过去几次,可始终怒视敌人,那股气势让刽子手心颤。
以为她死了,士兵抓脖子拖尸体扔掉,她用最后力气抬头,高喊“中国共产党万岁!”
这句喊得震耳欲聋,日军吓得后退,赶紧一刀刺进她心脏。
黄美英就这样牺牲了,年仅26岁。
她守住了游击队秘密,护了村里百姓,成了日军最后的噩梦。
她的骨气,让那些残暴的家伙也胆寒,证明了中国人不是好欺负的。
日军撤走后,黄美英的母亲和妹妹找到遗体,看到她裸露尸体,双乳被割,身上一片片肉没了,双眼空洞,血肉模糊,心痛得哭不出声。
她们含泪清理,用布裹好,埋在村后山坡。
村民们回来后,围着坟头默哀,有人捡石头堆成小碑记着她。
她的故事在乡亲中传开,先是妇女们聚一起低声说,后来游击队会议上引用,激励大家继续打。
1945年8月,日本投降,抗战胜利,村里敲锣打鼓庆祝,可黄美英母亲独自坐在坟前,摸着土堆落泪。
她的牺牲换来大家的重生,游击队重建家园,田地重新耕种。
后人没忘她,自发修坟,清除杂草,换正式石碑,刻上姓名事迹。
她的经历进了地方史册,提醒大家战争残酷,和平来之不易。
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
黄美英确为1945年牺牲的中共抗日烈士,官方地方史料仅载其受严刑审讯坚贞不屈、刑场高呼口号就义,未见帖中轮奸、灌辣椒水、割眼割乳、剐刑等具体描写;此类细节属民间传说或网络夸张演绎。

“Not paying attention to politics” works when you’re a teenager, but it’s an embarrassingly privileged and immature stance as an adult. Grow up.
He was arrested for having sexual images of children. They both are accused of sex trafficking. Their daughters should never be around them again for their own protection. Being a father doesn't automatically make a man safe; a child's safety must always come first.

Why are you guys upset at her?
She's saying that if she, as someone who's job is to save lives can answer calls/return texts them YOU as someone who only saves PowerPoints to PDFs can do the same.
She's right!
