The Words Of Audre Lorde

I can never begin to describe Audre Lorde’s impact on my life: radical feminist, American writer, and poet; she fought the good fight against sexism and racism. 

Here are some of the most profound words she has written about the meaning of life: 

1. “If I didn’t define myself for myself, I would be crunched into other people’s fantasies for me and eaten alive.”

2. “When I dare to be powerful, to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid.”

3. “Next time, ask: What’s the worst that will happen? Then push yourself a little further than you dare.

Tinder is in a rut. Match Group, parent company of the decade-old casual-dating juggernaut, was one of the worst performers on the S&P 500 last year, plunging almost 70 per cent as investors fretted that the app was losing its mojo. Tinder contributes more than half of Match’s revenue, but downloads have declined since 2020 and paid user growth has slowed.

Attracting and retaining Generation Z and women is a top priority for Match’s new chief executive officer, Bernard Kim, who ousted Tinder’s management team after taking over in June. He brings bags of experience from his previous role at mobile-gaming company Zynga, but his efforts to reinvigorate the brand may not succeed amid greater competition.

Young people are increasingly turning to apps that offer a more progressive dating experience and emphasise more serious relationships. These include Bumble, which listed shares on Nasdaq in 2021, and Match-owned Hinge, whose “designed to be deleted” tagline has struck a chord with people fed up with swiping and ghosting. Tinder has about 11.1 million paying users, compared with 2.1 million at Bumble and about 1 million at Hinge, according to UBS Group.

Sept 27 (Reuters) – Slovakia's parliament on Tuesday ratified the entry of Finland and Sweden to NATO, becoming one of the last countries to back the military alliance's expansion.
Finland and Sweden sought to join NATO this year in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
NATO's 30 members have been ratifying their entry since accession protocols were signed in July. With Slovakia's vote, only Hungary and Turkey remain to approve the expansion.
Turkey had been opposed, accusing the Nordic countries of imposing arms embargoes on Ankara and supporting groups it deems terrorists. But the three signed an accord to lift Ankara's veto in exchange for counter-terrorism promises.
Turkey has said it will block the membership bids if pledges are not kept.
In the 150-seat parliament, 126 lawmakers supported Finland's entry, and 124 voted in favor of Sweden's membership bid.
Slovak Prime Minister Eduard Heger's government has been a strong backer of Ukraine since war started in February. The country, which borders Ukraine, has also agreed to host a NATO battlegroup as the alliance bolsters its eastern flank.
Support among the public in Slovakia is shakier, with a poll in September showing a slight majority backing Russia over Ukraine in the war.
Sentiment favorable towards Moscow is also held by some opposition parties, including former Prime Minister Robert Fico's Smer, and some local media outlets known for spreading disinformation.
Hungary's parliament has the motion on Finland and Sweden's NATO membership on its agenda, but no date is set as lawmakers return after a summer recess.

‘Liver King’ Brian Johnson has tricked customers into buying his supplements by claiming he achieved his toned physique on a raw liver diet – when in fact he was using steroids, a new $25 million class action lawsuit will dollars raised.

The fitness influencer admitted earlier this month that his muscular physique was more likely achieved through an expensive steroid cycle than the original lifestyle he’s peddling.

Now New Yorker Christopher Altomare has filed a lawsuit against the bodybuilder and his companies – Ancestral Supplements, LLC and The Fittest Ever, LLC – for allegedly enticing consumers into buying his products.

Johnson touted his Nine Ancestral lifestyle — including the Eat tenet, which promotes eating raw liver and testicles — by appearing “consistently” shirtless to “show off his muscular physique” and “identifying himself as the epitome of health,” the Manhattan Supreme Court said in a lawsuit.

In reality, his brand contained “a dangerous and life-threatening diet” that caused “a large proportion of consumers” to suffer from “serious” food-borne illnesses, the lawsuit alleges Wednesday.

And the diet — which pushes liver, spleen, pancreas, heart, kidney, raw bull testicles and raw sweetbreads — was unsustainable for consumers, forcing them to buy Johnson’s supplements, the lawsuit says.

“Liver King convinced millions of consumers to adhere or adhere to the Eat Principle by repeatedly telling consumers that his near-perfect physique and optimal health is solely due to his adoption of ancestry, principally the Eat Principle , are attributable,” the suit laments.
