@GuruAnaerobic A long public transport commute can also have the effect a "bad neighborhood" does on your soul. 🐑

Poverty is Hell.

@clarkemark7 @BatConservation Great that you actually got these shots. Good timing.

I went out looking for a Barn Owl and saw this Noctule Bat feeding high and fast ...an absolute beast of a Bat! I didn't realise we had Bats this size in the UK . #bats @BatConservation

How many grams of creatine was Goku taking per day?

@MINHxDYNASTY Being in cash gives some comfort. But I refuse to sell when I am down. But all new cash stays cash, for a while.

being an investor/trader right now is hard it feels like no matter what we put our money into, it just bleeds. bitcoin, gold, stocks, tech, whatever. and if we sit in cash, we have to battle inflation. seems like there is no sure fire way out. [pokemon/tcgs has been really solid though] my solution to this has always been to just work on skills, create businesses and services of true value. no matter the state of the economy, the best of the best will always shine through in their industry. we're in wealth preservation mode. imo it is not the time to make crazy home run bets, unless it is on yourself. there will 10000% be times when the market is ramping up and opportunities are rampant. but until then, stay patient, sit on your hands, and wait for the right time. knowing when to play is the most important muscle memory to learn.

@vinodsrini_ Interesting, but it's also at the same price as it was Nov 2025.

Gold just dropped 5% in a single day. Silver down 10%. Mining stocks down 8 to 12%. Before you panic, understand what is actually happening here.

@mark_ledain @DudeWhoInvests Damn, interesting.

@DudeWhoInvests Gold will drop as long as the energy crisis remains Many global nations with a surplus (I.e. oil exporting nations) parked their reserves in gold instead of treasuries $TLT They are now selling Every country that’s seeing a 3x increase fuel costs is selling gold $GOLD $NEM

Makes LITERALLY ZERO sense. GOLD the hedge for geopolitical instability is crashing in the face of geopolitical instability. Can’t make this up.

@DudeWhoInvests Yeah, this is not making any sense. If literally everything is down, what is up

I wonder if CS Lewis got his idea of Aslan from Venice.

@MorePerfectUS What about Marcus Aurelius?

Billionaire Marc Andreessen says he has "zero" introspection, and that the idea itself is a modern invention.

@frogandtoadbook Me at the grocery store.

“I have done that,” said Toad, and he crossed out.

@Literariium This and sending my wife a message asking her what a parsnip is.

the main experience of being in my 20s has been standing in the middle of a grocery store & checking my notes app grocery list

@mert Hmmm very good point.

I will never financially recover from this

@sunandamitra @snskritinaruka Or they are second hand? When I had to move I couldn't move with all my books and had to donate them. This happens often

@jaybuilding @snskritinaruka If they are not then we are living in paradise.....

My lips instantly turned wide :D

@joce_leigh % of these read?

I photographed some of my bookshelves recently. I am in the 3% that have over 1000 and yes, the more I have, the more disorganized it has gotten! I know where they all are though! I also got rid of so many classics after my degree thinking the library has them but now they don’t! @BookwormBean -moving discussion and deleting on the voting thread

@sunandamitra @snskritinaruka How do you know they're pirated?

@snskritinaruka Bunch of pirated ones, though pocket friendly and if set aside the ethical issues,theirpoor printing can create headaches, reading ebooks are far better than picking up pirated ones..... *My perception and I might be horribly wrong

@snskritinaruka Top five experiences is browsing these stalls. But actually buying something is not something I do often, don't know many of the authors always. Commiting to reading a book is no small task. The opportunity cost is the reading of another great book.

@OfAryaVahedi @levelsio Words to live by: I'd experienced plenty of failure, but this was truly a new and exciting set of experiences to fail at.

@levelsio I was reading Tony Fadell's book, in one chapter he was describing Philips during his collaboration with them :)

None of Philips electronics products are owned or made by Philips Only their medical devices still are They sold literally everything (even their lights division) Now they license the Philips logo to whoever wants it Yes you too can make anything and pay them some money to stick the Philips logo on top of it It all means nothing!

My biggest health hack right now. Drinking tea before bed. It helps digestion before I fall asleep. Let's my body get the rest it deserves.

@cosmicdawg9 @bluewmist Wait what?

@bluewmist Breathing from your balls not your chest and throat It’s literally free 🫁😮‍💨

What is something relatively cheap that improves your life by 100%?

Well, and who have been the gainers? Those without conscience.
