I press record and I talk. Raw vulnerable with no holding back. This is my voice. My diary.

Being poor during the holiday.

On Saturday night I met up with a few friends at the Abbey in West Hollywood. I was coming from the Trans Coalition fashion show. I had two glasses of wine while watching the show. I had a third at Pump and one beer at The Abbey. I started leaning on my friends as I was clearly intoxicated, feeling embarrassed for being too drunk, I decided to get my ass home so I left my friends around 12:30AM to find my Lyft. I was walking past Pump when three men swooped up around me and begged for me to come with them. I got you baby, whatever you need I got you. Let me help you. One after another swirling around, grabbing, touching and yes sometimes holding me up. I kept saying, “no I’m good no I have a boy friend.” They were so aggressive and not taking no for an answer. My adrenaline kicked in, sobering me up. I forced myself away, walking past TomTom, calling my Lyft. I was shaking and embarrassed that I was intoxicated and so vulnerable. I finally saw a car pull up and the driver looked like the driver on my Lyft app. As I got in, I left my door open asking the driver who he was picking up and he said just get in. I asked for Billie? He said yes, yes close the door. This did not feel right so I asked for him to show me his phone and he said close the door we gotta get going I’ll take you home don’t worry. I immediately got out of his car and found my driver behind us. Once I got into my Lyft and verified the driver I burst into tears. 

These men were not out drinking and having a good time, these men were professionals and they were there to lure me to a second location. 

I called 911 when I got home and reported the behavior. The operator was annoyed stating it wasn’t an emergency but I felt otherwise. If I was just a little more intoxicated would I have made it home safe? Who is next? These men are standing outside our bars praying on vulnerable women. Where are the police? What is the city of West Hollywood doing to protect us? 

Sex trafficking is now an epidemic in our country and around the world. It’s happening right outside our local bars. I beg you ladies reading this to be alert, never leave a bar alone even if you are embarrassed or ashamed of being intoxicated. The sex trafficking industry pulls in an estimated $99 billion each year making it the fastest growing crime. 

I found a hot line to report any suspicious activity 1-888-373-7888 please don’t be afraid to call the police or this number.

I made it home safe.

 Key Takeaways: Start your day right with a healthy ritual. Dina begins each morning by drinking a large glass of room temperature water with chlorophyll. This helps to alkalize and cleanse the body. Prioritize family dinners, even just once a week. It’s important to sit down and enjoy meals together as a family, without phones, as often as you can manage - ideally a few times a week. Make your own natural cleaning products. With just water, alcohol, and 10-20 drops of your favorite essential oils, you can easily mix up a natural cleaning solution in a spray bottle.

http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2018/12/andrew-sullivan-americas-new-religions.html

“Religion is an attempt to find meaning in events, not a theory that tries to explain the universe.” It exists because we humans are the only species, so far as we can know, who have evolved to know explicitly that, one day in the future, we will die. And this existential fact requires some way of reconciling us to it while we are alive.

No meaning = Hopelessness.

If you want to contact us please do so at info@cloudstreaks.com

83. Do humans need meaning? Are wokeness and Trumpism new age religions? Mentioning Yuval Harari...

"Free speech is the master value as it's the value that updates all othe values." 
“I’m worried that as technology gets more powerful that it’ll be easier for the minorities who want to screw things up, to screw things up.”
“Today it’s possible for one person to derange the lives of million, even billions of people.” Sam Harris.

Who is worse for free speech? The hard left or the hard right?
IMO the hard left. Woke people. 

“Woke mind virus is the biggest threat to the civilization”
IMO extremists on the left or the right are the problem. Extremists in general. The more annoyed they get about each other the worse. IMO wokeism is much more accepted in main stream than trumpism. 
Woke: a state of awareness only achieved by those dumb enough to find injustice in everythign exepct their own behaviour. 
It's interesting. This is causing the loss of free speech. And that is hard core problematic because handing power to governments who normally don't give it back. 
Power corrupts, and ultimate power corrupts ultimately. People stop telling you the truth, start pandering. Then you definitely get high on your own supply. Then people start to hate you but you can't see it and think they are stupid.

   - Western: Discipline may be more flexible, focusing on reasoning with the child and understanding their perspective.


3. *Independence*:

   - Western: There's a strong emphasis on fostering independence from an early age, including encouraging children to make their own choices.


4. *Family Structure*: 
   - Eastern: A greater emphasis on extended family, with respect for elders and filial piety being central values.
   - Western: A focus on the nuclear family, with a more egalitarian approach to family roles.

   - Western: Children are encouraged to participate in decision-making processes, even from a young age.

81. What Is Good Parenting? Eastern Vs Western Parenting. Mentioning Amy Chua, Dr Becky Kennedy.

10 stages
- 1. Initial Attraction: This stage is about the initial spark and physical attraction between two people. It's often characterized by excitement and a strong desire to get to know the other person.
- 2. Infatuation and Romance: The honeymoon phase, where infatuation and romance are at their peak. Partners may idealize each other, experiencing intense emotions and a desire to spend significant time together.
- 3. Discovery and Enlightenment: Here, partners begin to learn more about each other's personalities, likes, dislikes, and background. This stage lays the foundation for deeper emotional connections.
- 4. Deepening Intimacy: Emotional intimacy grows, partners start sharing more personal thoughts and feelings, and the initial infatuation matures into a deeper affection and attachment.
- 5. Reality and Adjustment: As the euphoria fades, couples start seeing each other’s flaws. This stage involves adjusting expectations and dealing with the reality of the relationship.
- 6. Conflict and Power Struggle: Often marked by conflicts and power struggles as each partner tries to balance their own needs with the needs of the relationship. This stage tests the strength and resilience of the relationship.
- 7. Stability and Acceptance: Couples who successfully navigate through conflicts reach a stage of stability. There's an acceptance of each other’s flaws and a deeper understanding of each other’s needs.
- 8. Commitment and Security: This stage is marked by a conscious decision to stay together, often formalized through marriage or a similar commitment. There's a sense of security and partnership.
- 9. Collaboration and Growth: Focus shifts to working together on shared goals, such as raising children, building a home, or professional pursuits. This stage is about growth both as a couple and as individuals.
- 10. Mutual Support and Legacy Building: In the long-term, partners support each other in life’s endeavors and may start thinking about the legacy they want to leave together, be it through their children, community work, or shared passions.


Reasons things fall apart at each stage? 

1. **Initial Attraction**:
   - Superficiality: Relationships based only on physical attraction may lack depth.
   - Misaligned Expectations: If expectations about where the attraction is leading differ, it can lead to early disappointment or disinterest.


2. **Infatuation and Romance**:
   - Idealization: Over-idealizing a partner can lead to disillusionment when true personalities emerge.
   - Intensity Overload: The intensity of emotions might be overwhelming for some, leading to a withdrawal.


3. **Discovery and Enlightenment**:
   - Incompatibility: Learning about each other’s true selves might reveal fundamental differences.
   - Lack of Interest: A realization that the excitement of newness was the main driving force, not a deeper connection.


4. **Deepening Intimacy**:
   - Vulnerability Issues: Struggles with opening up can hinder the deepening of emotional intimacy.
   - Fear of Commitment: Increased closeness can trigger commitment fears in some individuals.


5. **Reality and Adjustment**:
   - Disappointment: The reality of the partner’s flaws and the relationship’s limitations become apparent.
   - Resistance to Change: Difficulty in adjusting expectations or behavior can create tension.


6. **Conflict and Power Struggle**:
   - Poor Communication: Inability to effectively communicate needs and grievances can escalate conflicts.
   - Control Issues: Struggles for dominance or a lack of compromise can weaken the relationship.


7. **Stability and Acceptance**:
   - Complacency: Couples may become too comfortable, leading to a lack of effort in nurturing the relationship.
   - Unresolved Issues: Lingering issues from previous stages can resurface if not properly addressed.

Word count ran out!

Music History

Frank Turner is a big name in punk and singer-songwriter folk-style music. Since he has such a huge presence in these scenes, we needed to know what he thinks of ska. Turns out, he has a lot of thoughts, and he tells them all to us!  Frank’s got quite the ska resume. He’s toured with The Interrupters, Bedouin Soundclash, he grew up going to UK skacore shows in the 2000s—he has a lot to say about this amazing UK scene. We find much more ska in his history, including a reference to the genre on his new album, Undefeated (release date: May 3, 2024) We also talk about his love for Converge, Koo Koo Kanga Roo (Including a weird show of theirs he dragged Dan Ozzi to), having NOFX cover his song “Thatcher Fucks The Kids,” and turning it into ska. And we talk about some of the toughest runs of shows Frank has played.  Listen to Frank Turner talk about on the In Defense of Ska podcast. Then, follow the series wherever you get your podcast.

In Defense of Ska Ep 180: Frank Turner

Believe it or not, back in the late '90s, Christian ska was all the rage. On this episode of In Defense of Ska, the hosts tap into their inner musicologists and explore the bands, sounds, and culture of such a movement. Listen now. The gang takes a look at the 'big three' of Christian ska, examining the likes of Five Iron Frenzy, The Supertones, and The Insyderz. They also dial in on the Supertones' sophomore record, The Supertones Strike Back, which went on quite a commercial run at the time of its release. Elsewhere, the hosts chat with two people who were there to witness the rise and fall of Christian ska: Jordan Morris (of Jordan, Jesse, Go) and Kevin T. Porter (of Good Christian Fun). The duo discuss the music, television shows, and legacy of the niche micro-genre, as well as anti-masturbation songs and Katy Perry’s Christian (and ska) roots. Listen to Jordan Morris and Kevin T. Porter talk about Christian Ska on the In Defense of Ska podcast. Then, follow the series wherever you get your podcast.
