@VigilantFox @robertoblake Who the hell is reading a Dave Portnoy book? 🤷‍♂️

Dave Portnoy says he paid $10,000 for an AI clone to narrate his audiobook for him — and it was “actually scary” how dead-on it sounded. His parents couldn’t even tell the difference. Then Audible shut it down, and he had to record every word himself. “I could only do 15 minutes [of recording a day] because it was that hard for me to read it. I hated it. I tried to get out of it. I paid $10,000 to do AI. I had this AI program for it.” “My parents couldn’t tell the difference. And it could literally just scan the book and go word-for-word.” “It was actually scary how it was dead-on. And it could have literally just done every single word in that book.” “[Audible] wouldn’t let me use it... I was told, ‘No, they don’t let you do that.’ So I had to [record the whole book myself]. I hated it. Hated it!”

Apply the Feynman technique when you read non fiction. Your mind can trick you into thinking you’re learning purely by reading. However, if you can’t explain what you read in simple terms, did you really learn anything?

@SolBrah Seneca 🙌🙌

Luck = preparation + opportunity

In Crime and Punishment, Raskolnikov killed the old woman with an axe, but Dostoevsky showed he destroyed his own soul long before. Your “necessary evils” for career success do the exact same thing. That buried guilt is already rotting your life from within.

@robprogressive The problem is, it’s London

It’s shocking what’s happened to London Property since peak Mayfair down 57% Kensington down 54% Westminster  down 24% Belgravia down 18% Prime central Londond prices have rewound 13 years back to 2013 prices! If this is not the best opportunity to buy central London property then I don’t know what is

@ywomendeservles That’s insane

EVEN Chad has to be a Passport Bro these days, we're so cooked!

@celestialbe1ng @theralkia “Put the dick down!” - Chris Rock

Compulsive masturbation/gooning is a nervous system in extreme distress looking for emergency relief. Stress creates tension, orgasm briefly quiets it but then evil prolactin rises and the vicious cycle repeats. It is self-medication of a very stressed and very much disturbed organism: sympathetic tension, loneliness, emotional pain and dysphoria create pressure, then orgasm provides a brief dopaminergic escape followed by prolactin-driven sedation. Temporary sedative. That’s what it is. You’re disturbed. Healthy high libido is expansive. Stress-driven sexuality is urgent, repetitive and briefly anesthetising. Elevated stress hormones, estrogenic signalling and prolactin turns sex into a frantic short-lived escape from dysphoria rather than an expression of real vitality. No bueno, mate. You’re running on estrogen and stress hormones and that’s why you’re doing it to yourself, my guy. Read Ray Peat and @BerbarianWizard

@DentesLeo ‘Be nice but carry a big stick’ as the saying goes…

Say it. If someone disrespects you, say it. If you feel you’re being taken advantage of, say it. Don’t confuse being respectful with being easy to exploit. You have nothing to prove to anyone but yourself. Earn the respect of the person in the mirror first. The rest tends to follow. You owe nobody anything. You owe yourself everything. Respect yourself, and the world will too.

@MasculineTheory Agreed

Make "making love" great again. Tired of all this meaningless fucking.

@RobertGreene Or often they’re just uninteresting a-holes

We are continually judging other people. We want others to think and act a certain way. Usually, the way we think and act. Because this is impossible, we continually get upset. Instead, we should see other people as phenomena, as neutral as comets or planets. They come in all varieties, which makes like rich and interesting.

@BrianAtlas TLDR: “I can’t defend feminism well”

Feminist cope slop

@newstart_2024 If it’s motivating I don’t think envy is what one feels. It’s a feeling of motivation in and of itself

Resentment is when you think someone ruined your life, but that someone is you. Jimmy Carr tied it to Nietzsche and said envy can be useful if it shows you what you want, but bitterness when you resent others for having it. Taking agency and responsibility is key. A sharp, insightful take on mindset and personal growth. What do you think, is envy a useful signal or just toxic?

@TheJoeySwoll 39 mins is about 4000-5000 steps Not seeing his point…

39 minutes is better than NO minutes at all. 👊🏼

@Rich_Cooper Brutal!

Never invite a woman into your life that doesn't have genuine burning desire. You will be punished.

@JesusSavesUs777 Amen

@DanielvsBabylon John 15:5 “…apart from me, you can do nothing….”

What God wants to accomplish through you is going to take a ton of humility on your part. That's what all this leading towards.
