As I get older I realize that having the foresight and wisdom to avoid conflict is better than getting in conflict on any level. Real conflict has the potential for so many unforeseen crazy variables that a wiseman doesn’t want to deal with so it’s best to avoid them... show more

Our mainstream culture is conflict-avoidant. There is the assumption that the less conflict there is in a relationship, the better it is. I disagree. If there is real intimacy, conflict is actually unavoidable. Because we are all different. The real indicator of health in a relationship isn’t the lack of conflict, it is the quality of our repair. It is the level of authenticity we can bring. That requires knowing how to be with conflict and disagreement, how to hold nuance. And it also requires practicing the art of repairing. Are we willing to show up and repair what we broke? Do we have the skills and capacity required for that? Avoiding conflict means avoiding truth and therefore avoiding real intimacy. This work is essential and transcends the personal. If we aren't capable of dealing with conflict in our own personal lives, it is no wonder that the world is in the state it is, where the most prevalent conflict management strategy is escalation.

BREAKING: Texas gov. Greg Abbott tells Tucker Carlson that he is "prepared" for potential conflict with federal authorities and that 10 states have sent National Guard to the Texas border. 🔥🔥🔥 "There have been about 10 [states] so far that have sent National Guard or other law enforcement. They now are joined together with us and this is a fight for the future of America," Abbott said. Tucker then asked about potential conflict with federal forces. "All we can do is be as prepared as possible, deploy as many people as possible, do as much as possible to put up more border barriers and deny illegal entry," Abbott said. "We're working hard regardless of what the Biden administration is doing." Video: Tucker Carlson

The media falsely claims that more journalists have been killed in Gaza than in any conflict since WWII. This is a lie… watch as we unmask the so-called journalists and expose how 75% of them aren't who the media portrays them to be.

.Vice President JD Vance JD Vance argues that the media is purposefully distorting the disagreements between the Pope and Trump to make them sound worse than they are: “Oftentimes, I find that when the media reports on [Pope Leo XIV] as an antagonist of Donald Trump… and then I’ll read what he actually says, I realize the Pope does sometimes does have disagreements, but he’s actually much more nuanced and much more subtle than what the media gives him credit for. They want to play up the conflict, but even on the immigration issue, yes, he has criticized some of the policy directions that we’ve taken, but he’s also said it’s right for a nation to have borders, that newcomers have a duty to integrate into their host’s culture. Those are things I very much agree with. The media doesn’t talk about that because it’s driving the narrative of conflict.”

Seth Rogen says waiting 20 minutes for a table makes him doubt his own talent “And it’s like, if I go to a restaurant and I have to wait 20 minutes for a table, instead of them just seating me right away as they are the famous person next to me, is it because I’m not as talented or as good as I thought I was?” “If I’m trying to get into a party and they don’t just let me in and I have to wait in line, does that mean I’m not as good a writer as I thought I was?” “If I’m not getting a deal, if I’m not getting the best hotel room, and I go next door and someone has a nicer hotel room than me on the press tour, does that mean I am not as good an actor as I thought I was?” “And I think that is how a lot of famous people interpret how they’re treated. And they think that if they’re not getting the best treatment, they aren’t as skilled as they wish they were, as they thought they were.” “And that was a thing that I realized when I read that. It’s like, oh, it is tapping into some deep part of me that makes me worried I’m not as talented as I want to be, as I wish I was. And that’s it.”

Pariah was so based for this. As much as I love Sonic and Spark, the last thing I want is for them to copy each other blurring the line that separates them. I like being able to switch between Spark 3 and say Shadow Gens and have a good time in different ways unique to each game

Brian Armstrong prefers to be a wartime CEO: “I used to think that I was better as a peacetime CEO, but I think that's not true. It's actually totally flipped.” “I think it's wartime, all the time.” “And I actually realized that I like wartime.” “I find it very energizing and motivating. It can make you really pissed in certain moments too, but it's actually very energizing. And sometimes when there isn't any conflict or war going on, I get a little bored and tired and I'm just like—it seems like nothing's blowing up right now, and I could use a good crisis.” “I don't want to be doing conflict for conflict's sake. I think that that's just destructive. But if you see something—a clear problem that needs to be solved—something to fight after—if you don't speak up and say something about it, then you're failing as a leader.” “Wartime is great. I love conflict.” Brian Armstrong with Ti Morse on Relentless

I think people that are scared of beavers are the people that like to manage the land completely as if it's a garden. Farmers and people that breed birds for game shooting and all that kind of stuff. I mean, for them, the land is only natural when it's what they've set it out to be, to look like and to have in it. Beavers are wild creatures, they do their own thing but they’re superb for flood water management, an issue that we have to deal with, as the climate crisis continues to bite - they are also fantastic for habitat creation. An issue we have to deal with because we've lost so much of our wildlife.

“I think it’s not just about my profession — everyone works hard, and in life, we all experience things, whether good or bad. So I think emotions are something everyone has, but we shouldn’t get stuck in them. Try to talk yourself through it, process it well, and remember that tomorrow is a new day. Everyone is doing their best to live, so we might as well try to make each day a little happier — it’s better than being unhappy, right?” 🦋 #EliotHuang

Sen. Jon Ossoff: I don't need to recite for you all the litany of terribles that are being forced on us right now. What we are dealing with is deeper than the ordinary conflict over policy and ideas. The folks in the White House right now have one agenda, and that is to amass as much power and wealth in one family as possible.

I am actually disgusted by this. I’ve had so many teachers that changed my life and put me in the right path, without them I don’t want to think about where I would be. These teachers are sharing how much money they have in their accounts on the par day. In a society where our teachers are guiding the minds of the future, the people who will be helping us when we are later in life. I don’t think they are appreciated enough nor is the compensation package up to par. It perplexes me how they they have to spend a crazy amount of money for their education, only to struggle to get by with a smile while still being generous enough to pay for the items our children need without being reimbursed for much of it. I think it’s time we create a change, I don’t think it’s fair we expect so much of them and they give so much to us only to relieve so little. I know people are going to argue with me and say well they chose to do it so if they aren’t happy with the pay, they can get another job. While that’s true, we would be in bad shape however if they ever chose to do that. Who would be teaching our kids and preparing them for the future. I think we focus too much on things that aren’t and shouldn’t be our priority while neglecting and overlooking a major issue right below our noses. Their jobs are important and our kids would fail without them so why are we treating them like they aren’t important? It’s because it’s easy for us to think of them as our babysitters for half the day. We treat them like Nannie’s who only watch our kids while we go to work and do things we enjoy. Maybe it’s time we revisit our roles in helping them achieve our goals.

Peter Thiel says making jobs as distinct as possible helps avoid conflict in a company: “If you were a sociopathic boss who wanted to create conflict among your employees— the formula is to tell two people to do the exact same thing.” “You’d say, ‘The two of you are going to work on the website. I’m not going to figure out who has which responsibility— you figure it out amongst yourselves. You have the exact same job.’” “It doesn’t really matter what the history of those people were—that would be a recipe for conflict.”

Local Egyptians are throwing stuff at the March to Gaza fools. They’re shouting “shame on you” in English as though they’re in Europe and the authorities will pander and protect them. I wonder if this will be a wake up call to the reality of this conflict.

Other European countries are now trying to force Hungary to take in their migrants because they’re being overrun. Orbán makes it clear, that’s not going to happen. “Their problem is how to live together with them. Our problem is how not to let them in so that we don’t have to live with them.” Some European leaders are starting to realize that letting in so many foreigners in such a short time and not leaving time for assimilation was a horrible decision. But now instead of deporting them, they want to force them on European countries that were not as stupid as they were? Hungary’s people should not be subjected to the stupid decisions of their neighbors.

#Cannes jury president Park Chan-wook says "I don’t think politics and art should be divided." " I think it’s a strange concept to think that they’re in conflict with each other. Just because a work of art has a political statement, it should not be considered an enemy of art. At the same time, just because a film is not making a political statement, that film should not be ignored. Even if we are to make a brilliant political statement, if it’s not expressed artfully enough, it would just be propaganda. So what I want to say is that art and politics are not concepts that are in conflict with each other, as long as they are artistically expressed, they are valuable."

No matter where I’ve lived in life I’ve always had some neighbor that was older and seemed to have a chip on their shoulder. It never fails that they always seem to have an issue. At first I thought maybe it was just me but I’ve quickly come to realize that there are some people out there that are just so miserable that the only joy in life is to bring others down with them. So how do I deal with them? I’ve tried to just ignore people like that, it used to be my go to response but at what point do I stand up and say enough is enough? They don’t seem to be bothered by the police and they act this way towards children as well.
