I had the exact opposite experience. when I stopped eating meat I got worse. When I stopped eating vegetables I got better. I’m not saying you shouldn’t eat vegetables, I’m saying your claim isn’t as strong as you think it is and peoples gut issues are different.
On the flip side, try leading a squad of four soldiers who don’t want to be there. You can’t fire them. You can’t demote them. If you rely on authoritarianism, what happens when they say “No”. Are you going to try to get them arrested court martialed because they refused an order to pick up brass? You’ll be laughed out of command.
You have to motivate them and make them want to get the mission done. It’s far more challenging than any leadership I’ve done in the civilian world.
It's not as easy as rezoning. there is significant overhead retrofitting commercial real-estate with the plumbing needed for residential. ( as well as many other changes) It's doable but the right incentives would have to be put in place by the city. However, everything i've seen of the city is their policies are very anti landlords.
I never said it was the top. being 12th out of 50 does make it a high tax state. Also, the high cost of living is not just the lack of housing. There is a massive regulatory burden on all aspects of california life.
Not sure if OP is a male or not but if you are get your testosterone levels checked and if they are low, fix them. I was going through the same thing at the same age. Your milage my vary but that was a complete game changer for all aspects of my life.
it was announced in a very political way at a time when everyone was trying to earn social points by supporting the other side. there was no mention of downranking disinformation released by the other side. i had been using ddg since probably 2017 and i switched that day.
I stopped trusting ddg when they said they were going to sensor Russian news. I assume google and other major search engines sensor political issues but I didn’t think ddg would.
