I would imagine there is a correlation between divorce and the cost of the wedding. Higher the cost the higher the probability of divorce Id wager. There is probably a bell curve where a certain region it’s negligible difference but on the edges it’s more extreme difference

What makes it worse is that his response was correct, and should be understood by all as a necessary component of the 1st amendment.
There are no perfect solutions only trade offs, and Matthew picked the correct trade off.

craft glue brand on Amazon for artists and creators. Yes...craft glue. We are regularly ahead of Elmers.

Does Logan seem like the kind of guy that resolves things these days?
Still waiting on the resolution for that crypto project he bombed…..
@ashleydzhang
I agree with you. Modern people love to trash the old churches and complain it was a waste of money. They fail to recognize the important beauty has in our development and cultivating a sense of inspiration, awe, and wonder in the world. Bring back beautiful spaces!
@UnionSeminary
We affirm that the term “seminary” in your case is a misnomer. Might consider changing the name to something like “Union school for happy thoughts” or “Union School of heterodox creeds.”
@Molson_Hart
Idk what is/isn't right. My opinion is that the market is the market. People want more to work now. If I offer a job and no one takes it I have to entice them with either money or perks or culture/environment. What other options are there?
@Molson_Hart
I could have told you that was going to happen lol.
I do think for just day workers on a temp basis you gotta be in 18-20 an hour range at this point.
Full time you can get lower if your workplace is awesome and you find the right people that co-live with others.
@mikebeckhamsm
He did a great job.
Love it!!
Beautifying our spaces is much more important than we might realized.
Making it specific to us as individuals has a real power over our comfort level in a space.
@girdley
40 hour work weeks are dumb.
85-90% of people aren’t actually working 40 hours. 32 hours is the sweet spot. 6-6.5 hours a day of focused intentional work.
I'm going to go on record and say it's TOO LATE to start an Amazon PL business if you have 0 business experience, less than 10k ready to go, and no knowledge of the industry at all.
Don't waste your time unless you are extremely committed to a massive uphill battle for years.

@michaelgungor
I’m a bit surprised. I thought he would understand blood symbology more Biblically. This “blood lust” comment is really pandering to critics and the “exvangelical” crowd that refuses to learn hermeneutics or exegesis.
Blood is life. Jesus blood was shed to trade his life for…
@jordanbpeterson
This tweet was a mistake.
Been a listener since the very beginning 5+ years ago.
This tweet is disappointing and unnecessary. The critics are justified this time Dr. Peterson.
I fail to see how this is a meaningful or precise tweet…..🫠🫠🫠🤔
@Molson_Hart
I didn't think you were gonna say it but you said it. TBH you are not wrong. I think 10-15% of all sales on Amazon all come from 1 zip code in Brooklyn.
@creation247
There are really only 3 core pillars that hold a marriage together.
1. Shared values
2. Chemistry/Atraction
3. Shared interests
You need to be strong in at least 2. Ideal is strong in all 3 but that’s very rare.
By strong I mean highly compatible and/or highly aligned.
@akheriaty
What studies are you referring to about natural immunity and is this 99% natural immunity only in affect during the 6-9 month period where the anti bodies are still present? I’ve seen some studies show antibodies present as long as 11 months but it varies person to person.
@GergelyOrosz
Sounds like he had people he knows and trust help him decide who to weed out and who to keep. Pretty normal and reasonable way to come into a new company you just bought.
@Molson_Hart
This tweet strikes me as a contrarian take of a popular global issue for the attention/likes. You can't be serious right? He is no fool. He's standing up for his country, and trying to gain any leverage they possibly can at the negotiation table when the time comes.

One un-neutered female cat can, in five years, be responsible for over 20,000 descendants. Female cats can have their first litter as young as six months and can have up to three litters each year with five or six kittens in each litter.

this week and talk business and culture.
I love learning from those that have done what we’re aiming to do.
I rarely remember to take pictures but I actually did this time!!
Be sure to listen to his podcast series!
@gm_skeptic
Drew,
This is honestly surprising from your audience. I wouldn’t have expected the atheist and skeptic community to react that way. Very interesting sociologically.
@wendelltalks
I often wonder if it matters what I believe. I think the truth is what I believe only matters insofar as it affects my own thinking and actions.
With respect to what others think I don’t think they care what I believe but rather what I say and do.

Headed to Tampa for my wife’s first trade show for her business!
Super proud of her making the transition from employee to owner.

@R_H_Ebright
Twitter has dramatically improved today already. So much more diversity of ideas on my wall it’s like people are actually saying things they’ve thought all along….
Someone attacked one of our listings last night.
Bullets are deleted and description is deleted.
So it is search suppressed....
No sales for last 12 hours
We don't usually deal with this...so I'm curious how long it will actually take me to get it fixed.
I will report back....
@7FigSaykho
Amazon def. did not pay you $971,468. That was your gross sales. They kept at least 35-40% of that, or more if you are running Ads.
You are being disingenuous.
@girdley
Gonna hard disagree here.
Payroll and income taxes are used for services inaccessible to foreign workers and makes no sense to charge them those taxes other than to pay income tax revenues. Taxation without representation is theft, and they’d have no representation.
@Molson_Hart
I’m weird, been married 13 years, and still no kids. We love kids, and plan to adopt and foster at older ages. We are setting ourselves up to be able to love and serve kids well before starting. This means healing our own trauma and issues + financial planin. Biological=Maybe
@Molson_Hart
I'm pretty close to that area, I'd be surprised if it is much less there but you know the area better than I do.
Also, are you sure you aren't trying to stir up controversy? :p
I've reported dozens or hundreds of ASIN's obviously violating Amazon policies or with fake reviews.
Every single time I get this e-mail back instantly/within just a few minutes. I've never seen Amazon take action against anything I've reported.

@meghantschanz
I grew up in very conservative Southern baptist churches as well, and for what it’s worth it was always clear to me that men were responsible for their thoughts and to love/serve the women in their life. I can see how the ladies got different messaging though in many cases.
@drgurner
I don't think people do it because they have time lol. They make time for various reasons....likely boils down to pain avoidance and pleasure seeking at a very base level biologically/neurologically/psychologically.

Well, I wish I knew about this before giving thoughts on others posts responding to this which I didn’t realize. So then I look tone deaf, yay me…well, this song is terrible, poorly timed, and tone deaf. I would have run this by like at least someone who could point this out..

Track record for Unions:
Reduced investment in economies, lower employment, lower productivity, and lower growth.
Who wants that?
My Dad tragically passed away from an aggressive form of cancer (AML) in 2018. He was diagnosed around March and passed in September.
Every year I grow older I realize more and more what a blessing it was to have a father that loved and supported me so very much.
Missing him.
@Ocasio2018
You keep using that word “right”....but I do not think you know what it means. Are you talking a constitutional right? A positive right? Or a negative right? Have you even read any John Locke? What are rights exactly? How did the founders understand rights and why?
Today is a day for celebration. We finally got reimbursed for 4 pallets Amazon lost that were delivered August 19th 2020. They kept telling me our pallets were not on the appointment ID...Multiple cases....9 months later and at least a dozen multiple hour calls...$$$$
Today I am reminded that much of the time people just need someone to listen.
Spent 45 minutes with my U-Line rep. today and he just started sharing a bunch of personal stuff of life challenges.
A gentle reminder to be present with those who open up to you and just listen.
@michaelpatron0
I love this thread dude.
You are asking the right questions.
You did the right thing by listening to the markets feedback, reflecting of the value of the team member, and offering higher compensation to stay.
I have a few other suggestions I’ll detail below…. 1/n

first hire you recommend?
For me it is bookkeeping/CPA.
When you're small you can handle juggling everything.
I don't want to learn taxes though....
I want good tax advice and for that to be handled.
1st thing I outsourced, and glad I did!
@ChrisUnits
Let’s just go communist and try to centrally plan everything. I mean bureaucrats can spend money better than private citizens on your view.
So just take it all the way.
Why half ass it?
😬
Is it just me or is Amazon seller support getting a lot worse? They are sending me form templates over and over again asking for the same things already sent. I have to spoon feed them what they're asking for and having to resend it multiple times before getting approved....
It's good to know that there are lines of support open for us Amazon merchants. My many months-long nightmare issue that has been unresolved until today. I reached out to
@dharmeshmehta
here on Twitter and he responded. A couple weeks later the issue is resolved.

@Molson_Hart
For temporary 1 day work I'm just saying it is going to be tough to *easily get people to show up for less than that. If you go hard on posting and finding you can find for less I'm sure but if you just want the market to respond $18-20 seems to be the temporary work cost now
@MikhailaFuller
@PastorMark
He blocked me on twitter as I brought up
#theriseandfallofmarshill
podcast. I grew up listening to him in his early years and used to feel the same. That is until the lack of accountability and how he handed the fall of Mars Hill church. It’s a shame I really liked him too.

@Molson_Hart
This is the natural consequence of rising labor costs. We really love our current team so our goal is to continue to increase efficiency and add automation and maintain the same number of production team.
@Molson_Hart
Depends what you mean by win.
I think they are buying time and also showing strength to have more leverage when things come back to the negotiation table.
They seem to want to make it hell for Putin to reach his goals and more power to them!
@JustinSaaS
I don’t think entrepreneurship can be taught. If you got it then when your spark happens you just go and figure it out.
Specific skills needed to run businesses can be taught, but the entrepreneurial spirit is caught not taught.
I keep getting more followers and I have no idea why. I barely tweet.
I’m not good at this twitter thing…..
Todays tweet is to remember that leadership is a position of service to others not power over them.
Cynical? What real value is it bringing to the market at this point? Chinese manufacturers can sell into the USA directly, and they are doing it in droves. If you aren't differentiation, cultivating a real brand, and ready to lose $ for awhile to learn. Just don't.
@Molson_Hart
Do you want the real answer?
It’s most likely immigrants.
They do the jobs Americans don’t want to do…..it’s how’s it’s always been.
Idk if it’s changeable.
