"The reason why people are not appreciative, not respectful, not compassionate, not considerate is because they're not any of those things for themselves. If you align with that within yourself, then naturally you'll start treating other people the same way." - @naravv__

Trying this for a month straight starting tomorrow. 30-60 minutes of silence every morning, before I do anything else. I’ll take notes on my thoughts and see what it improves, observe how it helps me with problem solving and clarity over each day and week.

My son is 5 yrs old. I'll make sure that he listen to his podcast before he turns 10. No amount of schooling can teach what this guy has taught in 21 minutes.

this deserves to be on your timeline once again.

@Emanzii with our current squad, it's impossible to compete in all competitions. focus on scudetto and coppa is realistic and viable

We need to accept that we currently have a coach with limited experience but we need to back regardless. And that we have owners who are not backing him in return, it is the way it is until the end of this season…

I’m calm and I don’t understand why Interisti are losing their shit. - We’re working towards our only obvious objective this season (Scudetto + maybe Coppa as well why not) - Stop talking shit like we’re a better team than Bodo

One of the best things @solanamobile did was choosing the low FDV for $SKR Congrats to @solana and seeker holders for the successful TGE. Launch price: $0.009 Launch FDV: $90M > Allocation worth base on tiers. Sovereign — 750,000 = $6,750 Luminary — 125,000 = $1,125 Vanguard — 40,000 = $360 Prospector — 10,000 = $90 Scout — 5,000 SKR = $45 Currently trading above launch price, Imagine earning rewards just for using your phone. > I know many people expecting high FDV will be disappointed. But given the current market conditions, this is the right launch FDV. High-FDV launches this cycle have mostly gone straight down. Higher FDV encourages instant dumps, while Lower FDV reduces sell pressure and allows price to discover naturally. Are you happy with your allocation? Are you selling or staking? Personally, I have no reason to be unhappy with my allocation xD.

Fun Fact: “Here, My Dear” was created as part of Marvin Gaye’s divorce settlement — he agreed to give the album’s royalties to his ex-wife, then turned the project into one of his most personal records.

this is arguably the best article i’ve read in my entire lifetime. because it perfectly captures: – who i am – what i’m currently facing – how i’m navigating through it if you really want to make a difference in life, please give it a read.

“Rock With You” by Michael Jackson but it’s a rare ‘strings’ studio version. Unreal.

The Arabs of the Gulf really went from having the roughest and hardest life in the world to the greatest living standard. Tabarakallah. You really dont understand how oppressively difficult their life was. Sailing and diving in that heat would kill most modern people in a week

⚡️The sneaker market died because the illusion that supported it died. It is a structural failure of a very specific type of market: A status market built on the discretionary energy of the buffer class. Now let’s take it to the highest level of coherence. 1. Sneakers were never about shoes They were a form of cheap status arbitrage. People could convert: •excess cash •boredom •social insecurity •stimulus money •youth cultural energy into something that felt like identity. Sneakers worked as a signal because the middle class still had disposable bandwidth to participate in games that were “optional.” That bandwidth is gone. 2. The buffer class is collapsing This is the same class that: •bought sneakers to signal taste •bought crypto to signal foresight •bought tech stocks to signal optimism •bought Teslas to signal belonging •bought lifestyle subscriptions to signal meaning When the buffer class is squeezed, the first thing to die is the market for status proxies. Sneakers are economic sentiment wrapped in leather. 3. Liquidity has migrated away from consumer culture The liquidity that used to inflate sneakers is now absorbed by: •inflation in essentials •debt servicing •higher interest rates •cost of shelter •cost of food •declining real wages •collapse in youth purchasing power In macro terms: The sneaker market froze because discretionary liquidity froze. No liquidity, no hype. No hype, no secondary market. No secondary market, no price floor. Once the reflexive loop breaks, the whole structure collapses. 4. Social media killed the mystery The resale market depends on asymmetric information. But now: •everyone knows stock levels •everyone sees drops instantly •everyone knows resale values in real time •bots absorbed all edge •content culture overexposed every release Mystery is a scarce asset. Once the mystery died, the premium died with it. 5. Hype markets cannot survive inflation shocks When people feel poorer, they stop buying symbols of wealth and start buying real wealth. You are seeing: •sneakers down •collectibles down •luxury resale down •designer bags down •streaming subscriptions down •mid tier tourism down At the same time: •gold is at all time highs •Bitcoin is ascending •silver is breaking records •real assets and cash flowing businesses outperforming hype This is a capital reallocation away from symbolic value and toward hard value. 6. The deepest layer: cultural exhaustion Sneaker culture thrived because youth had: •free time •identity hunger •a sense of belonging •a playful relationship with consumption Today’s youth has: •debt •stress •uncertainty •surveillance •no economic mobility •algorithmic culture instead of community •AI driven disillusionment Sneaker culture required optimism. What you are seeing now is the death of cultural surplus. The real diagnosis: The sneaker market collapsed because the civilization that created it is collapsing from the middle outward. The next phase belongs to assets that protect you, not distract you. Sneakers were a symptom of abundance. Their collapse is a symptom of contraction. That is the real geometry.

Never forget what you are watching. This is generational. Enjoy the moment; breathe in the wins. Don't let stupid intra-player agendas or rival fans obfuscate the beauty of what you are witnessing. Celebrate every win, every bragging right, every revenge, and eventually... every trophy.

The human obsession with purpose is merely a distraction from the absurdity of existence.

For those wondering why tons of artists and art enjoyers worldwide are collectively in mourning right now over this news, I will share my perspective. In any given market, once market dominance and vertical integration are achieved, its natural, imo, under capitalism that the remaining vectors of profit become (a) reducing expenses (e.g. mass layoffs, cutting corners and costs), (b) charging customers more, and (c) extracting whatever possible earnings from smaller entities & independent workers through nefarious IP law abuse. Just as with Spotify's investment in content ID detection AI in recent years, their latest acquisition of WhoSampled sadly comes as no surprise. It's just another reminder that we are in the throes of late stage capitalism. In a world where artists didn't get punished for having their sample sources revealed, places like WhoSampled would be universally appreciated and celebrated. We have nothing against music nerds. We have all the love in the world for the musicians that we source from. This isn't about you, and it's not really about us either, it's about corporate profits. My personal feelings on IP law aside, what this is going to inevitably do is punish a lot of artists and music enjoyers alike. Sampling isn't a lazy crutch that involves nothing but aggressive theft; don't let bs pro-capitalist propaganda lead you down these antiquated, bootlicking paths of thinking. Don't find yourself rooting for my lords, when they shake hands with the ones that own you.
