I recorded a 56 minute conversation in Spanish with my friend from Ireland about philosophy because why not?

Laugh at the absurd beauty of it all

Reading in a eclectic way is a superpower

There is no reason to not be that guy who always encourages people when it makes sense. As long as it is genuine, do it. Someone hints at wanting to start making content, or pursue some skill, or do this or that. If you think it fits them, TELL THEM. You never know how far a little encouragement can go.

There are two types of people: those who are pursuing their dreams and those who are not. Their languages are mutually unintelligible.

AI chatbots are to a curious mind what gasoline is to fire.

It is so worth investing in a premium gym. The current one I go to in Austin always has me inspired. There are so many people going hard as hell. And it has been an easy way to make friends with great people. Sure, you can save money by going to cheap commercial gyms but you might be missing out on valuable motivation and fun relationships. If you spend a lot of time working out it’s probably worth whatever extra money you pay.

@mike_languages Was just reading about this today, had no idea it was an artificial language. Wild

I officially decree Esperanto as the official language of everything. Get to learning.

Things tend to be hardest when you want them to be easy.

Tell me what comes to your mind when you read this quote by journalist/historian Paul Johnson: “The study of history is a powerful antidote to contemporary arrogance. It is humbling to discover how many of our glib assumptions, which seem to us novel and plausible, have been tested before, not once but many times and in innumerable guises; and discovered to be, at great human cost, wholly false.”

Any sufficiently advanced absorption in the present moment is indistinguishable from magic.

The more consistently you workout the more alive you feel.
