Trump is a Natural Disaster to Americans

One Very Stupid Ipobian went on Trump's twitter page to lick trumps ass calling him the best American President... the way Americans attacked her and humiliated Nigerians , I felt really ashamed.. nothing they didn't call us , from trolls, to scammers to reminding us how Trump hates blacks and yet some of us worship him out of inferiority complex, to reminding us he called Nigeria Shithole... Sad part the MAGA redneck white racist Trump supporters even joined in hurling insults on her


.

The lady went on Twitter to lick Trump,s as that makes her a fool, but you go on Twitter to spit on Trump,s ass and that makes you smart right. I am forced to call you an idiot but I will not.

calculate every dime spent on the child plus interest. Maybe adjust for inflation and let him pay for his irresponsibility. It may be in the interest of the child to know her dad so reunite them after he must have paid.

Religion / Re: Christmas Celebration Controversy: MFM Releases Statement by cicero(m): 3:35pm On Dec 29, 2019
Baloney! This is rooted in that holier than thee, religious mentality. People throw birthday parties on days that are not actually their birthday, people set aside a day to honor human beings who are deemed to have contributed to the society or a nation, celebrating Jesus’ birthday on a particular day can’t be wrong if you believe He was actually born.

Communion is done to remember Christ, His birthday is remembered to celebrate the day He was born. If it was stolen from some pagan practice so be it, everyone on earth associates Christmas with Christ. Not some pagan bull crap.

Merry Christmas y’all.
Man will live forever because Christ was born.

Family / Re: When Your Kids Have Crammed Immoral Song by cicero(m): 4:35pm On Dec 26, 2019
What of places like chicken republic, dominos and other fats foods that have kids as their major customers? They play all kinds of immoral songs while kids are glaring at them. The saddest is chicken republic where I tried to get them to change the tv station from trace to some other station like sports, because there were kids there but the manager didn’t hide his hostility while insisting it is company policy and as such cannot change it.
In dominos they reserve on tv to advertise how they want to invest in kids but devote 3 other tv stations to showing. Naira Marley and Cardi b. No one is calling these people out except me I guess.
So like someone said, raising kids in Nigeria is getting as tough as social media becomes prevalent.

Health / Watching Porn Rewires The Brain To A More Juvenile State by cicero(m): 5:09pm On Nov 29, 2019
Watching porn rewires the brain to a more juvenile state, neuroscientist warns
• Rachel Anne Barr, a PhD student at Canada's Université Laval, studies how porn impacts learning and memory
• Barr says there is evidence porn erodes the prefrontal cortex, a brain region that only develops fully in adulthood
• The prefrontal cortex controls mortality, willpower and impulse control

Watching porn erodes an important region of the brain, rewiring it into a juvenile state, a researcher warns.
Rachel Anne Barr, a neuroscience PhD student and researcher at Canada's Université Laval, says studies show people who regularly watch adult entertainment often develop damage to the prefrontal cortex, the brain region that controls morality, willpower and impulse control.
That brain region is, crucially, one that does not fully develop until adulthood.
Barr warns the research suggests porn could cause users to struggle with their emotions and impulses, possibly leading to compulsive behavior and poor decisions.

'It's somewhat paradoxical that adult entertainment may revert our brain wiring to a more juvenile state,' Barr wrote in an article about her research for The Conversation.
'The much greater irony is that while porn promises to satisfy and provide sexual gratification, it delivers the opposite.'

Porn appears to erode key regions of the brain and could impact impulse control, a scientist says
Kinks, fetishes, and pornographic imagery have always existed.
But with the internet, live-action porn became available on demand. And the demand is insatiable, with 33.5 billion hits on Pornhub, the biggest free porn site, in 2018.

The thirst for increasingly vivid sex scenes within seconds is so strong that it has, in fact, been a major driver behind technological advances.
'The porn industry has blazed a commercial path that other industries are hastening to follow,' says Frederick Lane, author of Obscene Profits: The Entrepreneurs of Pornography in the Cyber Age.

It is an unprecedented commercial success, tapping into something universal and carnal.
But, Barr warns: 'Science is only just beginning to reveal the neurological repercussions of porn consumption.'
'It is already clear that the mental health and sex lives of its widespread audience are suffering catastrophic effects,' Barr says.
'From depression to erectile dysfunction, porn appears to be hijacking our neural wiring with dire consequences.'
Barr, who researches learning and memory, says her team has observed porn's powerful impact on neural wiring, which can affect human behavior.

'The properties of video porn make it a particularly powerful trigger for plasticity, the brain's ability to change and adapt as a result of experience,' Barr says.
'Combined with the accessibility and anonymity of online porn consumption, we are more vulnerable than ever to its hyper-stimulating effects.
'In the long term, pornography seems to create sexual dysfunctions, especially the inability to achieve erection or orgasm with a real life partner.
'Marital quality and commitment to one's romantic partner also appear to be compromised.'
But how?
Barr says it can be likened to drug-taking: when a person uses cocaine, their brains give off a rush of dopamine, the 'feel-good' hormone.
The same happens with sex and arousal.

But beyond simply dealing with excitement, that same neurotransmitter also controls memories.
Overusing that neurotransmitter can wear down your natural reflexes and habits, leaving the body unsure how to satisfy its needs.
Drug users, for example, can lose appetite, turning to more drugs.
Porn users, Barr says, may start to see porn as a quick fix for their sexual needs, rather than a person.

'The desensitization of our reward circuitry sets the stage for sexual dysfunctions to develop, but the repercussions don’t end there,' Barr says.
'Studies show that changes in the transmission of dopamine can facilitate depression and anxiety.
'In agreement with this observation, porn consumers report greater depressive symptoms, lower quality of life and poorer mental health compared to those who don’t watch porn.'

Barr adds: 'The other compelling finding in this study is that compulsive porn consumers find themselves wanting and needing more porn, even though they don’t necessarily like it.
'This disconnect between wanting and liking is a hallmark feature of reward circuitry dysregulation.'
