~470,000 people are diagnosed with Lyme disease each year in the US.
When it comes to ticks, what you don’t know CAN hurt you.
Here’s 7 tips that’ll keep you safe from these tiny parasites and their diseases:

This is true.
And it ironically leads men to think “damn it, now I can’t tell. My gut says the way she (insert meaningless thing) means she’s into me but I’ve been burned for that too often; so I’ll just never assume it again. I’ve got to be overly overly sure”

1) Know where they live.
Ticks like the “edges”. Edges are where forest meets field, where tall grass meets leafy debris…
Research has shown that the highest concentration of ticks is in this in-between space, not deep in the forest, and not in the middle of an open field.

7) What to do if you have a tick.
If you find a tick has bitten you, don’t freak out. Most ticks do not transmit any diseases until AFTER they have fed. As a general rule of thumb you have 24 hours from when they first bite. So if you are checking daily you should be perfectly…

All this being said, ticks shouldn’t keep you away from the outdoors.
Avoid the ticky areas,
do a quick check if you’ve been through a ticky area,
do a thorough check at the end of the day,
and know how to remove a tick safely.
Follow these steps and you’ll be able to navigate…

3) Know their habits.
No, ticks do NOT jump off of branches and land on your head. That’s a myth.
What they do is hang off a blade of grass or a weed and wait for an animal to brush against it, at which point they cling on for the ride.
The most common height where a tick will…

Predators dont eat other predators for 2 main reasons:
•there are many fewer predators to go around
•more importantly, predators are generally more dangerous. As a predator, if you get injured you’re more or less screwed because you can’t hunt. So you tend to hunt safer prey

4) Know their habits – continued.
Once a tick catches onto you, they don’t just bite immediately.
Most of the time they will crawl around to find a preferable spot where they know they’ll be safe from interruption.

This is the root of why men being emotional with their woman is so controversial.
Women want to see the humanity in their man, but they don’t want that to make them feel unsafe or insecure.
As a man you have to be vulnerable without displaying a lack of control.

Sometimes a man has to say "Don't worry I've got this" or "I'll fix it" or "I'll work something out" even when he has absolutely no idea what to do, not out of egoism or a desire to be deliberately misleading, but because he doesn't have the luxury of…

Breaking bad is the story of a man, who was never taught how to be a man, who discovered masculine strength & agency, and who lost himself in the high.
Resentful, weak males are the most dangerous because they have natural masculine strength but they’ve never been allowed to
Been rewatching "Breaking Bad".
Even before his cancer diagnosis, Walt was predisposed to become a monster by his nihilism and his passivity.
He is a nothing guy, no beliefs in anything, no commitments that give his life meaning beyond the drudgery of day to day material…

All women will attempt to seize control in a relationship.
A healthy woman won’t want to succeed, she’ll want the man’s will to be stronger than her own.
