Ann Coulter. Five Stories You May Have Missed This Week and Is Sex a Duty in Marriage? Unsafe with Ann Coulter Genocide for Laughs May 23, 2025 Hosted by Ann Coulter Your Five Stories of the Week: Late night “comedians” find white genocide hilarious Trump baby accounts? Please, no… More fun with Girl Cops (Disabled Division) Illegal Alien “crisis” in Dalton, GA The truth about immigrant crime rates https://ricochet.com/series/unsafe-with-ann-coulter/ Is Sex a Duty in Marriage? | Love & Sexual Intimacy Is sexual obligation implied within marital vows? Do you have a moral duty of care towards your husband or wife? What does a ‘sense of duty' even mean? You CHOSE your spouse. Above all others. You made promises to each other. They have one life to live, and they chose to spend it with you. The way you treat each other today matters because the life you share will be over all too soon. One of you will be the first to go and that life will be over. The jobs, the cars, the money, the house extensions, and all your petty squabbles will mean nothing. In the final analysis, all that counts will be the legacy and quality of the relationship you had the courage and moral fibre to create. That's a burden one must take seriously, and so to that aim, I would urge you to allow yourself to feel obligated to give them the best of yourself that you possibly can. https://youtu.be/Ppt6pJ_ZetE?si=hVeybML0lxmFRLFW Laura How 14.7K subscribers 31,400 views May 12, 2025 #sex #marriage #relationships ▼▼▼NEWSLETTER SIGNUP▼▼▼ https://laurahow.com/newsletter-signup/ ▼▼▼SUPPORT MY MISSION▼▼▼ https://laurahow.com/support/ ▼FOLLOW ME▼ Instagram → / laurahow Facebook → / laurahowcounsellor Twitter → / laurahow ▶GET IN TOUCH◀ Website: https://laurahow.com/contact/ ▶BOOK RECOMMENDATIONS◀ Website: https://laurahow.com/book-recommendat... ▼ ⌚️Timestamps ▼ ──────────── 0:00 – 1:08 - Intro 1:08 – 2:31 – What is a Duty? 2:31 – 4:30 – Marriage Vows 4:30 – 6:15 – What's Sex Got to Do with It? 6:15 – 7:20 – Why Not Feel Obligated? 7:20 – 9:24 – Sex is Love & Love Means Duty 9:24 – 11:15 – A Decision to Love 11:15 – 11:37 - Outro ──────────── #marriage #sex #relationships BOOK A SESSION ▶▶▶ https://laurahow.com/online-coaching-...

In this episode, Annie McShiras and Ojan Mobedshahi discuss East Bay Permanent Real Estate Cooperative, a community-centered development coop that removes real estate from the speculative market to create permanently affordable, community-controlled commercial and residential projects. They share how they raised over $4 million for Esther's Orbit Room, a historic venue in West Oakland, and plans to raise more under their Regulation A+ offering. Key Takeaways: "We've raised $4.3 million. We're about $600,000 shy of our goal. . . . The same seller who sold us [Esther's] owns 26,000 square feet of vacant property two parcels down. . . . This whole corridor is getting gentrified. Getting control of this whole block for community ownership is a real dream of ours." "It's an ongoing conversation, to work to transform not only the real estate system but the financial system and the ways in which we're trying to galvanize non-extractive funding." Bios: EBPREC Finance Director and Treasurer Ojan Mobedshahi and Investment and Funding Director Annie McShiras Ojan Mobedshahi is a 2nd generation Iranian American, born and raised in the Bay Area.
