I'm so confused when reading a book and they say

"A good student will study hard. SHE will get up every morning and follow a strict schedule."

Why can't you just say "They"?

They is a sexless, genderless word. The "th" indicates it refers to a singular entity. Not just a group. Well, "a" group is a singular entity too.

E. g. "thou, they, thee" = singular. "Ye, you" = plural. And why is "thou" pronounced "thow" when you isn't pronounced "yow"? Just questions I have. Nobody thinks about what they're doing. Clearly "thou" is supposed to be pronounced "thoo". Like the German and Danish cognate, "du".

He was a philologist professor who served in the Franco-Prussian war, on the German side, that helped liberate Europe from a "liberated" French empire. He was also a musician, poet, novelist, and philosopher. He lived from about 1845 to 1900, so not that long ago. He is very much oversimplified by people who teach "philosophy" classes.

We are always eventually rewarded for our goodwill, our patience, reasonableness and gentleness towards what is strange. —The Joyous Science, 'We must learn to love'

Life has no deceived or disappointed me! ... Life [is] an experiment for the knowledge seeker - and not a duty, not a tragedy, not a swindle! —The Joyous Science, 'In media vita'

To not die from doubt and distress when inflicting great suffering and hearing the cry of this suffering. —The Joyous Science, 'A part of greatness'

The epicurean selects the situations, the persons and the events which fit with his extremely irritable intellectual constitution; he renounces the rest - that is, the bulk of them - because they would constitute fare too strong and too heavy for him. The stoic, on the other hand, practices swallowing stones and worms, glass shards and scorpions, without revulsion; his stomach is supposed to become indifferent in the end to everything that the accidents of existence pour into it. ... For men subject to the capriciousness or fate, who live in violent times and are dependent on abrupt ans changeable men, stoicism may be quite advisable. But he who anticipates that fate will allow him to spin out a long thread does well to set himself up as an epicurean, as all men engaged in intellectual labor have hitherto done! For it would be a great pity for them to forfeit their delicate irritability, and to receive in return the rough and spiny hide of a stoical hedgehog. —The Joyous Science, 'On stoics and epicureans'

I don't most women actually want true equality. By wanting Richer stronger and dominant and the leader type of guys. They perpetuate patriarchy. Do most perpetuate patriarchy

Timelines of crises suspiciously line up with his re-election….

They will either do it during Convention or right after.

I am a single guy. I am 29, have no dependants, and I have a well-paying job. I own a class A motohome that was manufactured in 2009, so it is older by now and showing some age.

I am not really wanting to rent an apartment right now, because I would be pissing away $1500 a month on a place that I will never own. Imagine spending hundreds of thousands of dollars overtime on a place and suddenly lose your job or become disabled and you get evicted. That would be horrible.

My second option is to save up and put money down on a house or condo. Although, I would be signing my life away to $200+/k in debt for decades of my life.

I really don't know what I want to do long term, because I am likely to remain single the rest of my life and everything will rest upon my shoulders solely financially. I never even had a real girlfriend, so I know what direction my singleness is taking me.

Aussie influencer Sarah's Day wants to send Christmas presents to Palestinian and Israeli children.

It is certainly not culturally appropriate as neither Muslims or Jewish people celebrate Christmas. Dunno why. The Palestinian kids might appreciate a bottle of water more than a toy.

I think it is dumb blonde virtue signalling

• Feminism is a combination of misandry, androphobia and gynocentrism.
* Feminism is the advocacy of rights for women as superior to the rights of men.
* Historically, feminism has been based upon women's aggression towards other demographics.

Kids have human rights too.

The foreskin has some 20,000 nerve endings, the part that's left over has only 8,000. Meaning men who were circumcised at birth have never felt what actual sex SHOULD feel like, according to Nature, not Muslims and Jews.

Not only that, but it results in a 5% smaller average penis. Which equates to anywhere from a quarter to a half inch in length.
