Email Security, Fear of Attack and Anger at Gotabaya

8:30 p.m.

(c)

Yaniv Elbaz, who looks young, but is actually in his 40s and very elderly, is into email security. We should be able to figure it out fast.

I am immensely let down by Gotabaya. All I asked him to do was fix our courts systems so that people don't have to worry about thieves or murder.

He has not done anything.

I am honestly a bit scared, of an attack, that can happen at any time, in an unpredictable way, as I am:

1. "We gotta push a FCPA on these █████, send them to ████, ██████████████████████████████████████████, I don't have $15b to waste on your s***, and █████████████████████████████████████████"

2. "I want to stop this trade relationship with███████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████

3. "I don't think we should invade Iran.███████████████████████████████. I don't think it's correct to invade Iran. I don't think we should be spending $1b per year on Iranian oil. What about Saudi oil? If the US gets a discount, we should also just buy US oil imports from Saudi at discount."

4. "Why is ██████ here?"

5. "Lasantha. Thajudeen. Bharatha."

Considering Less Mirtazapine While Writing Political Plans

Thursday, June 23rd.

12:45 a.m.

I'm watching this. I took 45mg of Mirtazapine. If things are okay, I will reduce my dose to 30mg of Mirtazapine. I think it is a bit hard cause of stress.

I have to write our political plans.

Looking good.

The mood is serious, reflecting the high-stakes environment of military aviation training. The subtitle reads, "because the Pentagon listens to her about your proficiency," suggesting a discussion of performance evaluation or a briefing on strategic assessments.
