awed study because to me the biggest part of this is just that the kids are biologically genetically they have different impulses. Some of them have an impulse to be close to a parent some don't. Or some act differently. Maybe they have the same desire but they act differently to get it.

And so I would say this is yet another study that you shouldn't put any credibility in whatsoever.

Well here's the story that I find most interesting today. So Russia had its May 9th victory day celebration and it's a World War II victory celebration. And normally they parade their military stuff and they talk about how awesome they are. And people were expecting Biden or they're expecting Putin to say something like they were having victories in Ukraine but he didn't. So he claimed no victory in Ukraine even partial victory. No no victory he claims.

And here's what he did say. He said that the Russian soldiers are fighting bravely in Ukraine. They're fighting bravely now. Here is the linguistic path that this has taken. At the beginning of the war all the smart people said, and of course I don't think any real smart people said this, some smart people is sort of in quotes let's say. The media was saying that Russia would just conquer Ukraine in two days and in and out.

Now then they went from they'll crush them in 48 hours to okay it's not going to be 48 hours. Come on people we you know even the United States took longer than that to conquer Iraq. You know the two days was sort of hyperbole. It never really meant two days. Come on. It really meant that Russia is so much stronger militarily that they will definitely win. Yeah it just might take a little longer but they're definitely definitely going to win. Just takes a little longer.

All right so we went from two days they're going to win to well they're going to win it's just going to take a while. And then the next step we have achieved in which Putin says that his team is fighting bravely. Let me give you some advice. Never join the team that's fighting bravely. Do you know what fighting bravely means? It means you lose. Nobody who's winning is called fighting bravely. When people are winning it's called winning, victory, winning. They conquered this land. They beat this army. They won.

Fighting, and I'm not arguing that Russia is losing. I'm not. I'm not arguing that. I'm saying that the linguistic path went all the way from easy win to tough win to oh at least
