@callanable didn’t even have to think about it

thanks claude

I’m not good at loving myself all the time but I do know myself and like myself

@lapislagoons I think if you want to live a big, unusual life then you will. Making a few mistakes along the way is normal no matter what but maybe it’s also a part of the unusual life too. “Deserve” is just a concept we use to torture ourselves it’s not real

I’m tossing this way of thinking and maneuvering the world back and forth in my head like ping pong for months now, I feel I’ve lived most of my life with the expectation that I am particularly intelligent or talented as I’ve gotten a lot of reinforcement on that over the years, and not from my parents but from industry leaders, mentors, employers etc. but more recently I’ve been trying to pull that back, assuming it as ego, trying to humble myself and dream smaller, but I’m not sure that’s serving me either and it feels like a performance not a correction, how do I know if I deserve an unusual life? I still want one but I think the ways in which I feel I’ve failed, though no one else seems to see me that way, make me feel unworthy, as if my sense of self has been inflated this whole time

@sighswoon seeing “I acquired” on twitter made me think for a sec that you bought a start up

I acquired the linen hooded Dune dress from fashion brand company and it is everything I could have ever dreamed of

people would be so much less icked out by AI if we just let it be the robot that it is instead of making it pretend to be human

I feel bad for smart people who accidentally cultivate a dumb fan base

I think dating would be better for everyone if we could all agree a first app date is actually date 0

the problem with tech is nobody is funny

im good at my job but im mostly successful because people like me and im funny

lattes are chocolate milk for adults

we used to just call this “nerds” and “hipsters”

@lapislagoons people are afraid of being alone and are good at lying to themselves

do people date people they don’t like enough to be dating because they think it’s the right thing to do?

when I don’t sleep, gravity feels heavier. The earth pulls the skin under my eyes downward, my bones feel harder to keep straight, the air I move through feels denser
