The video shows the tactics and background going into the ad campaign. After decades the brands sales were moving in the wrong direction and they need to throw a Hail Mary pass. Since the ad launch their stock is up 70%. So are their sales (below). Some of that is attributable to their sister brand (Aerie) and it's endorsement deal with Travis Kelcy.

Nobody know how to do "good" and "be transformative" like the illuminati. If only the school could have been more woke. Of course charters schools that actually produce steller results (NYC's KIPP, Success Academy...) are under constant attack by NY's Dem controlled politicians.

A signature education proj

Saw this map and said to myself..."WTF"? Hold on there partner. In most of these case you need the consent of their parents. So don't forget to bring flowers. I also thought it might be of interest to check out the age someone can be prosecuted for statutory rape. Had Claude do a map on that below as well and provide some additional context. Fun fact: The song My Sharona was written at the time about a 16 girl, the lead singer had a crush on. Claude: Is the marriage-age map

Perhaps America's greatest novelist combining profound insight, sensitivity and deep understanding of the male psyche. Genius does not cover it. I think a Nobel Prize is in order here. The Eleanore Roosevelt of our age. But easy on the eyes. Did I mention that? Women Are Too Controlling, She Wrote. Her Message Still Resonates. The message in “The Surrendered Wife,” the best-selling book by Laura Doyle, was provocative. Many women credit it with saving their marriages. Lau
