ASWM Media Day Vibes 🔥

We were locked in for ASWM Media Day🎬 @EssenceRansome @soufsidegunn

Steph Curry and people like him are probably the best proof I have of my (not so conspiracy) theory that our purpose is decided for us on the conveyor belt of creation before we even get here. Everyone is born to do a very specific thing and some people never find out what that is. The people who do end up living very fulfilled and often lavish lives and the people who don’t are doomed to a life of existential inadequacy. You could be really good at killing people lmao but your morals and sensibilities wouldn’t allow you to be a hitman or work for any government agency. In Steph’s case, his seemingly innate marksmanship put him right where he needs to be, doing what he was meant to be doing. Same case with Jokic, but in a more pragmatic sense. Nikola Jokic doesn’t give a flying fuck about basketball, but he’s eerily great at it. He loves horses. But when you’re 6’11” with otherworldly game in the court, being a cowboy simply isn’t in the cards for you. He could have gone that route, but I imagine going against the grain in such a way would have led to a less stable life for him, which I believe to be the case for everyone. And I think the further you stray from your purpose, the harder your life is, and vice versa. Some people find that thing and do it. Some people spend their entire lives searching. Some people know and renounce that path. It’s a beautiful and terrible thing. I wonder if there’s a word for it.

happy phantom thread day !!!
