Projecting evil, identifying the evil in the world and saying that you are being unassailably right as god is on your side, in pursuit of morality just seems like a really dangerous position to put yourself in.

Unknowingly or naively really believing this and doing this is acceptable. Knowingly and nihilistically doing this is not.

If you don't sleep enough, don't exercise, or eat poorly

And you say you're depressed

Then you should first bring these three things back to normal, and then evaluate the situation again

the human imagination and stories remains undefeated

Remember!
When you cross out an “X”, nothing changes

the more you sweat in peace, the less you bleed in war

What happened today in history: Jack the Ripper sends the infamous "From Hell" letter along with a human kidney in 1888, Hermann Göring dies by suicide in 1946, and other landmark events from October 15.

"how much time do you spend outdoors daily?"

interesting - might play around with more questions 🤓

I love when strangers smile and say “good morning” to each other

Reminds me there’s a little humanity and kindness left in the world

As with all @july posts, I kept thinking about this one and had an insight — Silicon Valley self-sabotages by ascribing too much of its identity to “doing”

Take the iconic comeback from Elon, “What did you get done this week?”

Implicitly, doing reigns supreme in a culture that venerates high agency leaders

And it’s understandable… when most other industries are in stasis, tech bears the flag of progress and holds onto the idea that American exceptionalism and manifest destiny are still alive

But by over-fixating on “doing”, it ends up destroying the soul of all creativity, which comes from “being”

If tech could become less insecure around not always doing and leave space for being, much of what it builds could become imbued with greater purpose, beauty, and creativity — and at little to no cost

Doing isn’t impacted negatively by being. The reason for this is that intelligence is primary, and it manifests through being. Doing is 2nd order… can expound more on this later

Do you ever open a calculator instead of an alarm clock on your iPhone?
Do you want to calculate exactly how much sleep you need to wake up in perfect condition?
Or you want to count how much time you spent helping people?
Or how long have you been without your family?

Or maybe you're just a fucking dumbass?

Be careful with saying you're "staying true to yourself".

Authenticity is often just an excuse to remain in your comfort zone.

You are a constantly evolving being. Your authentic self can change by the minute.

Do you remember how in childhood you were eager to become adults, thinking that then everything would become subject to you and you could. However, when you grew up, everything turned out exactly the opposite. A lot of responsibility for your actions, a lot of things and worries. And here you are, in your 30s, 40s etc standing and thinking about how you want to return to that carefree and beautiful time.

This is an eternal circle: in childhood we want to enter adulthood, in adulthood we want to return to childhood. I would like to find a middle ground between these two periods of life...

Are you reacting to your social feed or responding to it?

it amuses me how large users write an AMA-style post, and then answer only the questions of a small handful of popular users, completely ignoring small accounts
