So do you know the answer to that riddle?
This is one of the ways to answer this question.
If you got to a tricky situation that probably earlier you made a certain mistake.
It should have been avoided.
But the other quite creative answer to this question is that you take the sharp objects from one of the chairs or the spikes and
And then they use them to cut off the objects from the other chair.
And you know what objects I'm talking about.
I believe this is the right answer.
We are often being manipulated by politicians, by corporate leaders,
to make a choice from two suboptimal options, and then when we are forced to make this choice and we make this choice, it's almost as if it's something that we have to assume responsibility for.
I don't think we should be buying into that.
That's a very interesting subject.
The reason I have this is because a tribe that is almost extinct in Siberia and Mongolia called the Venki passed me this gift from them.
Normally, they would craft something like this only for their most respected leaders.
It is supposed to be a token of their appreciation for bravery, courage, leadership.
Ironically, it also translates...
in a very specific way into the Russian language.
In Russian, walrus's penis means something a bit funny, which is often used to describe nothing.
So, for example, if you've been requested by, say, certain government or a certain business partner to provide something that you're not willing to provide,
You can just politely have this penis bone in the background while you're doing the video call and hope that they would... Through osmosis, figure out the deep message.
