An Article Jonathan Shared, Child Abuse and Exhaustion

5:45 p.m. (b)

It's nice to read this! I saw Jonathan ███████ shared it, I reacted Wow and read it. I was reading it from 11 a.m., and I couldn't read it properly, it was a simple, well written article with many academic sources linked as sources. I remember Sandberg's Option B used nice referencing I liked. I think my mind isn't in good health because of recounting abuse. It's very emotionally taxing, it taps into my emotional reserves, depleting me and my energy. It takes a lot of energy to strain yourself when doing my work, planning or learning or leading. You have to practice for years before doing something in 5 minutes or 1 year -- seeming natural. Like Steve Jobs at the product launches. You need to study so much. I feel exhausted. I'm doing my 33 minute run. ████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████████ I think I will quickly rush through it.

Luckily, the people around me are quite cool, they get it.

The screenshot is from a BBC article titled "The ancient Sri Lankan tank cascade systems tackling drought," showcasing the traditional water management systems in Sri Lanka. The image features an irrigated rice field with water reflecting the blue sky, surrounded by lush vegetation and palm trees. This serene landscape is indicative of the agricultural setting in Sri Lanka, where these ancient tank systems play a vital role in sustaining crops during dry seasons.

The lighting in the image is bright and warm, suggesting a typical sunny day, enhancing the greenery and calm ambiance of the scene. This ancient hydraulic network is a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of past and present communities in managing water resources effectively. - Title: "The ancient Sri Lankan tank cascade systems tackling drought" - Site / app: "bbc.com" - Captions / subtitles: "By releasing water into irrigation canals, the tank cascades sustain the rice crop during the dry season"

Sri Lanka Water Reservoirs, Farmers and Burnout

We have Sri Lanka Water Reservoirs as a SL Wealth Fund asset, which will be a great way to help our people and these farmers

I don't know

"The right thing to do"?

Also it makes sense for us

Water is precious resource which is scarce, they're out of it in Iraq now

Our fellow freemasons did this Boston Tea Party!!!

I told them that "f*** James Taylor, or Thomas Lipton who is also a British mason, I'll give you shares in my Sri Lanka Tea Corp SL Wealth Fund"

So they all dressed up in elaborate Red Indian costumes

And they did a false flag

So we can

Earl Grey, Starbucks Deals and Foreign Policy

1:30 a.m. (c)

I love Earl Grey. It's got Bergamot or something which gives it a very distinct, but good flavor profile. I love it.

We're doing a deal with Starbucks hopefully when we get in, so they can look forward to that too

Many great deals for America with my gov't

Nothing super uber cool for China and Russia

But yes

Nothing for Islamic State of Iran

Nothing for Khamenei

But yes to their great people
