Walking Evening News: American social animals are also "lying flat"
Good night,
The local elections in Taiwan have already begun, and the US midterm elections will also be held in November this year. In the recent Republican primary, Liz Cheney, the daughter of former Vice President Cheney, was far behind.

NASA's Artemis program was originally expected to launch its first mission at 8:33 tonight, with the giant rocket "Space Launch System (SLS)" carrying Orion aboard The human spacecraft (Orion) took off and orbited the moon, but a fuel leak problem occurred before the launch, and the test flight was cancelled at the last minute, and the rocket will not try again until September 2 at the earliest.
Artemis is the goddess of the moon in Greek mythology. She inherited NASA's Apollo program more than half a century ago. This unmanned test flight mission is to send humans to the moon again (the target is set for 2025)—— This time, the plan to get women and minorities on the moon — and the ultimate goal of exploring Mars — is expected to cost hundreds of billions of dollars.
out of gender
The Hungarian Ministry of Audit recently released a report, pointing out that the rate of women entering universities was higher than that of men in the past decade, worrying that the "too feminine" phenomenon of "pink education" will reduce the possibility of women getting married and having children, in addition to exacerbating the country's low birth rate. The population problem is also harmful to the boys' mental health, which may lead to the consequences of "the refrigerator is broken and no one is repaired" or even the economic downturn.
The same report also pointed out that 82% of teachers in Hungary are women, making the system more 'feminine', while risk-taking, technical ability and entrepreneurship, classified as 'masculine', are underestimated, which is the reason why women are in universities. The factor of "excessive proportion" and thus "undermining gender equality" has caused an uproar in the outside world.
Although the Hungarian parliament only elected Katalin Novak, the country's first female president, this year, Prime Minister Viktor Orban has vigorously promoted an anti-immigrant and anti-LGBT "conservative revolution" for many years, and gender equality has continued to regress. .
I can't be the only one who knows
From the appearance of LGBT to open mothers and married people , the faces on the beauty pageant stage seem to be increasingly diverse in recent years, and the decision of British college student Melisa Raouf has made people rethink the definition of "beauty" - 20 years old Raouf of Miss England (Miss England) semi-final without makeup, successfully advanced to the final, becoming the first contestant in the competition's nearly 100-year history to appear without makeup.
Raouf said in an interview that she started wearing makeup at a very young age and only recently learned to embrace the flaws and imperfections of a bare face: "Our flaws are what makes us who we are, what makes each of us unique." She will compete for the championship in the finals in October, and she plans to play without makeup again.
Quote of the Day
Quiet quitting
Overtime has become the norm. After work, you have to be on call at any time, receive messages from your boss and bombarded by phone calls. The distinction between work and life has long been blurred... If you/you have a relationship with the description in the previous paragraph, you must also embrace TikTok. The buzzword that has swept the United States has even developed into the concept of "quiet quitting" that challenges contemporary workplace culture.
The so-called "silent resignation" does not mean quitting the job, but a mentality of "doing as much as you get paid" and re-establishing the balance between work and life - performing duties within the 40-hour weekly working hours stipulated in black and white, Finish work on time and close the communication app notification after get off work. The surge of uncertainty, work stress and burnout in the post-epidemic era seems to make "laying flat" a trend that knows no borders.
