"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"

You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.

Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.

Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.

Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Riiiiiight

There have already been a bunch of tweets deleted where people in Paris said it was intentional. And it's not like people haven't tried to set it on fire before.

If thats really the result of an islamist attack, that will backfire so much any intention of macron to look tough abroad when he cant even defend one of the symbols of his country.

Happens all the time with restoration work, also the quality of the personel is diminishing because no one is educating the youth to do manual work and BE GOOD at their work.

If twitter, facebook, social media are removing messages.... well they passed laws and systems this year to monitor what people post. So if you promoting hate or not in line with their ''corporate scope'' you get removed. That's why facebook been closing down right wing accounts.

It sucks for Notre-Dame-De-Paris, I was there last year... the Cathedral will survive, the damage is limited to the material inside and the roof, the structure is said to be fine. They will repair.
 

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"

She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.

You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.

She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.

The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.

I have my doubts. The passion which built the cathedral hasn't existed in decades and the Holy See shows no interest in bringing it back. Look at what passes for a Catholic church now and you see what quality the Vatican is capable of demanding in its structures.
