"Vivian Jenna Wilson, the transgender daughter of Elon Musk, said Thursday in her first interview that he was an absent father who was cruel to her as a child for being queer and feminine.
Wilson, 20, in an exclusive interview with NBC News, responded to comments Musk made Monday about her and her transgender identity. On social media and in an interview posted online, Musk said she was “not a girl” and was figuratively “dead,” and he alleged that he had been “tricked” into authorizing trans-related medical treatment for her when she was 16.
Wilson said that Musk hadn’t been tricked and that, after initially having hesitated, he knew what he was doing when he agreed to her treatment, which required consent from her parents.
Musk’s recent statements crossed a line, she said.
“I think he was under the assumption that I wasn’t going to say anything and I would just let this go unchallenged,” Wilson said in a phone interview.
“Which I’m not going to do, because if you’re going to lie about me, like, blatantly to an audience of millions, I’m not just gonna let that slide.”
Wilson said that, for as long as she could remember, Musk hasn’t been a supportive father. She said he was rarely present in her life, leaving her and her siblings to be cared for by their mother or by nannies even though Musk had joint custody, and she said Musk berated her when he was present.
“He was cold,” she said. “He’s very quick to anger. He is uncaring and narcissistic.”
Wilson said that, when she was a child, Musk would harass her for exhibiting feminine traits and pressure her to appear more masculine, including by pushing her to deepen her voice as early as elementary school.
“I was in fourth grade. We went on this road trip that I didn’t know was actually just an advertisement for one of the cars — I don’t remember which one — and he was constantly yelling at me viciously because my voice was too high,” she said. “It was cruel.” "

Einstein moved to America a capitalist country
USA has greatest number of migrants in the world.
USA is the most desirable country to live in.
But not for Elon Musk's daughter who said she will leave USA due to transphobia.

Boy kissing boy is the worst crime in the Bible.
But Christian boy kissing muslim boy is probably twice as bad, so its really really bad.

Sleep and happiness frequencies, I use less often.
I admit, its great to be able to turn on some sound and just feel happy, but my main goal is to increase intelligence, which could help me much more in life than just feeling happy right now.

It is said in some studies that certain frequencies can increase intelligence.
These are usually considered 15 to 30, and even 40hz.
In case of isochronic, 15 is very hard to hear.
However, binaural creates 15 hz by combining two different frequences so the difference between them is 15 hz.
So, there are plenty of apps and programs designed to create frequencies. You can pick whatever frequency you want.
40hz seems to be popular.
Now, its hard to find exactly which frequency is best for intelligence, but 15 to 40 seems to be the range for intelligence.
Some study suggests that binaural beats can increase intelligence by 20%.
Thats a significant increase, and also if we are to trust YouTube comments, plenty of people claim to have benefited from binaural beats. They claim it improves focus.
I have noticed too that certain frequencies make me alert and focused, basically having the effect similar to that of drinking plenty of coffee at once.
I wanted to explore these more, because 15 to 40 is a large range of frequencies, and I kinda want to know which one is best.

Is that why you turned vegan?
Vegan is the cheapest food possible. Plus, sugar is tasty. Now, one can reduce food cost by keeping chickens or sheep, or by foraging or planting trees and berries.
I am not vegan, I just admit that its about as cheap as it gets unless you have your own farm where you farm sheep or chickens or cows.

What foods have a 25 year shelf life?Freeze-dried meat is the ultimate long-term protein source. Its 25+ year shelf life is unmatched by any other food item.
Sure, if you have 30,000$ to pay for 25 years of meat.
Meat just happens to be somewhat expensive, and freeze-dried meat even more.

For food supplies, you probably want oil and sugar. They are cheapest per calorie, and dont expire fast. Plus, sugar is tasty.

With wars being more and more likely to happen, food shortages become more possible.
However, nature can provide some food, especially in forests.
Now, this isnt any complete guide, and you should make sure not to eat anything poisonous or harmful, obviously. Also, many things on this list carry certain risks, so be warned.
Here is the list of foods with high energy density found in nature:
1. Dandelion root
2. Tree bark
3. Dandelion flowers
4. Catkins, green catkins
5. Pollen from catkins
6. Grasshoppers
7. Algae
8. Pine tree needles
9. Pine tree nuts
10. Acorns, hazelnuts, walnuts, green nuts
11. Cattail
12. Tree sap, pine tree sap
13. Water extract, achieved by soaking soluble sugars, fiber and protein in water.
14. Blending dandelion greens and other edible weeds, thus making juice
15. Alcohol made from fermenting food which contains sugar
16. Mushrooms
17. Fruit
18. Berries
Now, this list doesnt include hunting animals, birds, searching for eggs, animal bones, or fishing, so it is suitable for vegans.
I have also excluded soil, lice and feces. While many animals eat soil, lice and feces, humans wouldnt find that good, probably.
Edible tree sap is a significant food, because its present for whole year in many forests. It contains water and sugar, so it is a good source of energy.
Tree bark from some trees is useful in small amounts. 30 grams of edible tree bark should be safe enough to eat. You dont want to eat too much tree bark because it can cause constipation.
Pollen is great food source, even tho it can be gathered only at certain times a year. It is gathered by gathering lots of catkins, drying them and shaking them in a bucket so they release pollen at the bottom of the bucket.
Grasshoppers are probably a more risky food source. Historically, people did eat grasshoppers. There are some grasshoppers which are poisonous, probably. So while they do contain lots of protein, they might not be the best choice.
Mushrooms are a significant source of food. The only problem is the identification. There are plenty of really poisonous ones looking way too similar to poisonous ones. So while they are a great food source, they are only a safe food source for mushroom experts.
Nuts are highest calorie food in forests. Pine tree nuts contain about 600 calories per 100 grams. Walnuts contain about 700 calories per 100 grams.
Dandelion root is another great food source, because dandelion root is the size of a carrot. Dandelions are very common and easy to find. They are softer in spring, and can be made even softer by cooking.
If you have blender, you can make great use of dandelion greens. They are very difficult to eat raw, as they are tough to chew. However, blending them into a juice makes them easy to consume.
Edible fruit and berries are great food source if you can find them.
Making alcohol from natural sugar and yeast is possible, just somewhat risky.
Water extract is a method where soluble sugars, fiber and protein, or even pollen are extracted from plants by soaking and crushing plants in water. This method is important because it produces water which has calories. Water is easier and faster to drink than it is to chew foods, so calories are absorbed faster. This method is risky, of course.
But this method would be improved but made even more risky by adding soil which contains bacteries which break down cellulose, to further increase sugar extracted to water. However, the reason I am not really recommending adding soil to improve extraction of sugar is because so many soils are made toxic by human activities.
The alternative to water extract method is cooking plants to make tea, and such tea would contain some calories due to soluble sugar in plants.
Catkins from some trees are edible and usually present even in winter. You just dont want to eat too many of them.
Dandelion flowers are easy to chew and are a good food source if you can find the ones not made toxic by human activities such as use of herbicides which makes even edible plants toxic for humans.

They can do those things out of prison, too, but they're not surrounded by armed guards.
There is plenty of rape and violence in prison, so being "surrounded by armed guards" doesnt change anything.

I would rather take more gameplay content at the cost of cutting-edge graphics. But eye-candy gamers complain if shit doesn't look next gen.
My laptop has 8gb RAM. Even if I liked high graphics, I wouldnt be able to play them. But I noticed that even games which I can play, there is no guarantee that those with better graphics have better gameplay. I dont like if game is way too low in graphics, but something on the level of Smite graphics works good enough. However, gameplay is everything. I had to stop playing countless games before even finishing them because gameplay is so bad its beyond belief. Some games simply enable you to do enjoyable actions while some simply dont. Like, for me, Fable 3 is complete trash when compared to Fable 1.

So butt rape should be a bigger deterrent than whipping?
Deterrent theory is scientifically unproven. Countries which have harsh punishments are even doing worse in terms of preventing crime than countries with weak sentences.
If deterrent theory was true, then when country introduces harsher punishments, you would see a proportional reduction in rate of new offenders, but you dont see that.

Eh, the best way to deal with crime is to prevent it.
Also, most criminals would prefer whipping to prison due to butt rape which happens sometimes in prison.

Trump says it’s immigrants that are ‘poisoning the blood of our country.’
I would say its the other way around.
American-born citizens are poisoning migrants with bad life style.
Migrants are healthier, less obese and less likely to commit crime.
Who is poisoning who?

I realized that I spend a lot of time a day using only few things.
I have my notebooks, my laptop, my smartphone and my headphones.
I used to have tablet, but it's battery died after I forgot to charge it for few months. I thought it will be fine, but now it wont turn on anymore, so I guess lesson learned.
My notebooks are my most important thoughts written down so I dont forget. If I learn something which is interesting and which can be useful, I write it down so I can use it later.
My laptop is for gaming, movies, anime, and especially music and sound therapy like binaural beats and isochronic sounds. Its also good for research and AI really made research easier for me.
My smartphone has many apps. I have those survival games where you fight against bunch of enemies coming at you. Next, there are tarot apps, fortune telling, crystal ball, palm reading, and many other divination apps. Next, I have those puzzle games and block games where you have to solve logical problems. I also have therapy apps like light therapy and sound/voice therapy.
I have notes on my smartphone too, as I usually type a lot on smartphone which I save to smartphone notes, then I write down important stuff in actual notebook.
My headphones make music sound so much better, especially on laptop. Smartphone's music sound is kinda inferior. Plus, binaural beats and isochronic sounds which I listen to on YouTube are much easier on laptop than on smartphone.
Headphones are much better than earpods, by the way.
These things make up most of my daily life, and I realized that my life is much more simple than I previously thought. I dont have plenty of things, but things I have are already taking up so much of my time. So person doesnt need much to be occupied all day.

The moment person says that he is an atheist, he makes the claim which he must prove. Basically, it is impossible to say your position without making a claim which must be proved.
"I am an atheist."
-"Can you prove that you are an atheist?"

@Savant
There is a more advanced version of what I mentioned, and it is usually done by asking proof for premise.
For example, if someone says "claim A" as a proof for "claim B", you ask "Can you prove that claim A proves claim B?".
It would go something like:
"I am going to work."
"Can you prove that you are going to work?"
"Of course. I go to earn money".
"Can you prove that you are going to work to earn money?".
Its very important to stick to questions to avoid making a claim yourself which you would have to prove.
Anyone can practice this with AI too.

@Savant
Thats funny.
You can always annoy people by asking them to prove their claims.
Most people tend to make claims they cant prove, because they are used to casual conversations where unproven claims arent challenged.
If they make more claims, just ask proof for those too.
