After several hundred years of Western investment which only creates slums and brothels, props up violent dictators and which leaves behind a big hole in the ground where the countries resources have been stripped, I would suggest that investment that builds railways, ports and other infrastructure, creates jobs and new markets, is like a breath of fresh air .

Because there are no slums or brothels in China, big holes in the ground, and they have never propped up violent dictators.

mental health
Dysphoria and depression have been bad. Not finding much comfort in my relationship and feeling like shit physically.
Tried to boy mode my way through quitting smoking. Visit with my kid on my birthday was the only thing I was really looking forward to the rest of the year and it was cancelled. And I may have had a cold or mild covid. Almost a week of inflammation and sore throat. So not much motivation to do anything aside from laying around miserable.
Much of my depression and disassociation has been dysphoria and anxiety related.
Have you read the gender dysphoria bible? There's a section on gender euphoria. It is dysphoria. They're two sides of the same coin.
