You have to feel for Yomif Kejelcha. One of the sport's great "nearly" men on the track. Two World Championship silvers in the 10,000 meters. Always pushing the pace in Diamond Leagues, chasing fast times. He debuts in 1:59:41, well under the marathon WR. And finishes 2nd.

BREAKING: The value of Banksy pieces are plummeting after it was revealed he's an old fat guy.

Someone would graduate with First Class. You would claim it is not by First Class that all the First Class graduates you know are suffering. Only Pass and 3rd Class graduates are making it. When people celebrate marriage, you claim it is not an achievement. But when your friend gets engaged and married, excitement wants to kill you. When you get engaged and married, you shut down social media with celebration. When people don't celebrate with you on what is supposedly not a celebration by your own admission, you call them haters. You find it easy using your uncle and father's friends' connect. You also want to marry a rich man. You want to be successful to give a solid foundation to your kids. But you are envious, jealous, and hateful of rich men's children, and people whose own connect are their own parents, who gave them a solid foundation. Even on this app, you attack people that have big followers and question people who follow them. You accuse them of thinking they have sense just because they have large followers. But you're doing "follow for follow back" to grow your follower base. You hate influencers but want to become one. I would have called it witchcraft, but I understand. Success has no real enemy. It is a natural victim of envy.

Dear “15-18 yo founder”s sending me DMs, don’t. Go and hug your parents, fall in love, eat chocolate cereal for breakfast, read poetry. Nobody will give you back these years. And sure, do your homework and learn math and code if that feels fun. But stop building SaaS and hustling. Even if career is what you are optimizing for, this is not the way. You need deep education that will withstand automation. You need to sit with linear algebra and probability theory and philosophy and literature. It won’t get you go viral on X but it’ll make you whole. And mute all the SF performative assholes. Oooops sorry this last one was a note to self.

Let’s do tech matching, shall we?🌝 Introduce yourself and what you’re currently learning 👨🏽‍💻👩🏽‍💻

The one thing I’m grateful for today is that I got older and learnt self-restraint before the internet got this vicious and toxic. You will now face proper real life consequences if you’re not careful on the internet nowadays. I feel sorry for the young opinionated ones. Be easy.
