this is an interesting thought-
your physique is a public resume of your private habits
“A well-maintained physique is a great business card. Ideas and intelligence are what matters, but if you have a well-maintained physique, it's better."

Gen-z women are in revolt against a country they don't like and don't think works for them.

The Man Who Dies Rich Dies Disgraced: The Forgotten History of the Idea That Wealthy People Should Give It All Away
https://theverifiedpost.com/article/history-of-philanthropy-carnegie-gospel-of-wealth-ancient-greece-medici-rockefeller-giving
The idea that wealth carries obligation is not new, not progressive, and not radical. It is older than any religion currently practiced, articulated independently by civilisations that never communicated with each other, and encoded in the legal structures of ancient Rome and the sacred texts of ancient Egypt alike. What Carnegie did in 1889 was not invent this idea. He repackaged it in the language of industrial capitalism and pointed it at the people who most needed to hear it. The man who dies rich dies disgraced. Prometheus stole fire from the gods and gave it to humanity. The gods chained him to a rock for eternity. He is still, two and a half thousand years later, the word we use for someone who loves humanity enough to pay a price for it.

The Man Who Dies Rich Dies Disgraced: The Forgotten History of the Idea That Wealthy People Should Give It All Away
The idea that the rich have an obligation to give away their wealth is not modern. It is not progressive. It is not radical. It is older than Christianity, older than Rome, and it was articulated most bluntly by the richest man in America in 1889, who wrote…

mimetic desire mentioned in the piece: https://t.me/humblespace/431
additionally,
Augustine wrote about the libido dominandi, the lust for mastery, as a defining feature of desire. To him, people’s motivations were intimately linked to the pleasure of possession that others are denied the same good.

#BM absolutely love this concept-
putting a period at the end of your actions
i believe this can help those that feel like their lives are slipping away
it is always about the smallest things
what i love about this is how it leads back to being intentional in living your life - putting period at the end of actions

putting a period at the end of your actions
If you lie down for 4 hours after work and just stare at your phone, your brain stores that time as >>phone time<<—just one single chunk. Since there's only one piece of data saved, it feels like the whole 4 hours evaporated
To cut down on this kind of time and use it more densely, it's good to forcibly put >>periods<< in the middle of this hazy daily routine to create clear memories
•On the way home from work, listen fully to exactly 3 favorite songs and then turn it off
•When you get home, hang up your outer clothes and drink a glass of cool water
•Before washing up, clear away one used cup from the desk
•Watch YouTube Shorts for exactly 15 minutes and then closing the app
Even with something this tiny, if you mark it with a 'it's done' period, your brain will recognize that a lot of data has been stored.. For people who feel like their day is way too short—especially those with ADHD—I bet it'd really help to give this a try

이거 진짜 맞음.. 시간이 늘 순삭된다고 느끼는 사람들 특징이, 행동에 마침표를 못 찍고 영원히 쭈욱 이어가는 거라고 함(과몰입, SNS 중독 포함..) 나도 이 문제가 넘 고민이었는데 책에서 드디어 원인을 알게 됨

What will humanity build in a world where intelligence is no longer the bottleneck? What is possible, and what becomes scarce, when intelligence is a commodity? That’s the race the winners are running right now.

The AI Race is a Fractal Prisoner’s Dilemma with Dollar Auction Dynamics
https://discontinuitythesis.substack.com/p/the-ai-race-is-a-fractal-prisoners
In an infinite game with escalating stakes, there is no exit calculation. You either keep playing or you are eliminated. The absence of a finish line does not free you from the race. It removes the only thing that could have stopped it.
This is not a competition with a winner. It is a treadmill that accelerates until participants fall off.

Sorites Paradox
The sorites paradox, sometimes known as the paradox of the heap, is a paradox that results from vague predicates. A typical formulation involves a heap of sand, from which grains are removed individually. With the assumption that removing a single grain does not cause a heap not to be considered a heap anymore, the paradox is to consider what happens when the process is repeated enough times that only one grain remains and if it is still a heap.

the filmmaking industry is led by money-minded investors, leading to more sequels and remakes, rather than fresh and creative films
the trend of xxx 1 2 3, prequel, sequel, live action remake, etc. has been quite obvious
