if I were to go steve jobs mode and just have one warm (im often cold) perfect feeling long sleeve shirt and twenty copies of it, any recs

@heynibras caffeine

a question on my mind today: what makes it so hard to be with the raw experience of the body? to be with sensations & emotions as a direct, physical experience? i’ve spent close to 12yrs at this point practicing the skill of feeling my body, resting my attention there, and i’m

@JoeyMannarinoUS there’s a lot of crap in japan, it’s not this simple

Japan's obesity rate is 3%. America's obesity rate is 40%. And guess what? No one in Japan is doing paleo, vegan, or carnivore diets. They're just eating REAL FOOD. None of our processed junk. Meanwhile, we're over here fasting, cold plunging, and complicating our lives. In Japan, they just eat normally and walk around. RFK, please fix our damn country!

@NgoloTesla i think given modern context it makes sense to wash more than you’re implying, but likely less than most people do

It is ridiculous to suggest that it would be beneficial for a wild animal to wash their paws with chemical soap. Using slightly less toxic soap is no less ridiculous. There's a time and place to clean yourself like that, and that is when you get industrial chemicals and other obvious toxins on your hands.

@a_musingcat red light therapy ain’t bad

@the_wilderless this is a failure to take the path all the way. its a cop out and lazy.

I’ve talked before about how I grew up around and have been friends with a couple folks on the sociopathy spectrum,, What I haven’t talked about is, uh, I’ve met a couple people I’m pretty sure *put themselves* on the sociopathy spectrum via meditation

If you’re a guy in your early 20s, buy a tungsten cube Go into debt if you have to This is not satire. You can get a cube for 4 grand Having a dense cube communicates status to women and business relationships And if you buy it right it will hold its value if not appreciate

@mattparlmer meditation is a skill that requires practice, alcohol is not lol.

Meditation makes people less happy than drinking alcohol does

@wanyeburkett humans need context, parenting being one of the hardest of all

@nickcammarata @RichardMCNgo but this is also seems correct to me, i just dont think its what most ppl are getting at with the term unconditional love

@RichardMCNgo i'm not sure it works like that? love is a feeling, like sour is a feeling. there might be some conditions in which you feel sour or not (eg eating sour foods) but you don't really control it. and it's not "conditional sour" it's just sour. you can't add conditions to sour

Unconditional love is not "I will love you under any circumstances". I call that selfless love, and it's bad, because you do have a self. Unconditional love is "I won't use my love as a bargaining chip against you"—i.e. I won't add conditions to it to make you do what I want.

@nickcammarata @RichardMCNgo I feel like it’s more related to right action? the right thing to do is often the loving thing to do… like respond well to my 2 year old who bit me, which comes from understanding and empathy vs. only making these choices based on whatever narratives are spinning

@anabology why?

My personal goal over next 6mo is to increase IQ by +1-2std. This seems doable with tech today. Generic nootropics don’t work. I will share my journey, but who has ideas?

@alexeyguzey maybe similar to Japan where ratings are generally skewed lower as people are more critical. On Tabelog (japans yelp), anything over a 4 is probably god tier, and the decimal after a 3 actually matters (3.2 way less good than a 3.8)

Just had the best food in my life in Taipei. Place’s Google Maps rating: 3.6. Line outside: 30 people.

@melissa That one was very good, super tl;dr was like “let kids be they’ll figure it out”

@ZacCitron i have a copy of that one in the stacks — i'll check my notes

next up is more holt, the father of unschooling > yale-educated engineer turns WWII submariner, later leaves state department to pursue career in teaching this is his second book of many — all broadly dismissed by legacy educators as 'too radical' notes:

@ichthys30 We named it Discord because Accord is a shitty name for a business (sorry Honda). Nothing more than that.

@Romy_Holland thank you for sharing this

i've been sitting on this draft for months. it turns out there's a whole bunch of stuff it feels like you're not allowed to publicly say about abortion.

@bigmeedicine L-Phenylethylamine fixed everything one day and did nothing the next lol.
