Solo biz update: Scheduleyourstrength.com - built, BUT out of cash so -> Doing some woodwork to get some ALSO -> in the meantime I created a blog site for my garden (which I'm doing anyways) Links to all the things are on my profile #buildinpublic

@lizengco Ah, you gotta cook it all at once (meal prep)

@jordanmriddle No time to cook. When I am hungry, there's not enough time to buy lunch.

for those who work from home, how do you solve your lunch problem?

@KevinEspiritu I like the question "what are you anxious about?" As if I can just say oh its ..., find a solution, then be done with it. Never thought of that

Real talk, most people saying "just get over it" re: mental health have never actually had to Serious mental health issues change brain structure, alter stress response, impact cognition, etc. Spend time w/ folks seriously struggling for even 2 min. and you'll realize this

@NizzyABI That's helpful for me at least 🤷‍♂️

i just spent 20 mins trying to explain github to my gf and the best i could do was: “it’s google docs for developers”

@FitFounder Sounds like someone doesn't want to live in Ripped City

P90x has messed up an entire generation on what an effective workout should look like.

Anyone consider that maybe Elon’s mission, is for Elon to get what he wants, rather than the country to get what you voted for ? It’s not a shock for Elon , or anyone, to put their personal goals first Elon seems to be on a mission to protect brand Elon at all costs. No ? Free Speech is everything. Until it’s anything related to Elon. Who has complete control over speech here on X The censorship of the platform you adore is in the hands of a single person, who is on a mission to make himself the most powerful person in the world. above and beyond the President of the United States.

@notlouisck Tax incentives for homeschooling

So what’s the plan to make people “want” to have children again? 4k a month mortgage to get a starter home, with both parents working full time, to afford two cars and bills, while daycare costs $1500 + a month per child, neighbors no longer help each other, and families live far apart… and even if they were close, everyone is working full time Schools get out at 2:30 and corporations want everyone back in the office until 5 every day One day at an amusement park for 4 costs 500 bucks Call me crazy but it just doesn’t sound that appealing if I was young again

@DreamDividend Same situation, less zeroes behind mine tho

I have over $1M in equity in a house. Just sitting there. Trapped w/ a 2.875% mortgage. You?

@realEstateTrent I think it's called a militia...

Friend was just invited to an Election Watch Party. Is this a thing?

@KevinSzabo14 It never really made sense to me, but when I had kids is when I really understood that I need to be in charge of providing

When did you realize that the rat race wasn’t for you? I genuinely want to know. I’m reading every single reply for research.

@Melt_Dem @bryan_johnson Leto wasn't incapable of love. See its not that bad

ahem @bryan_johnson would you turn yourself into the worm like in dune god emperor if it would ensure you live an additional 1000 years and become immortal but you had to be a massive worm who was incapable of love?

@theryandreyer That's a sweet duck blind

DIY sauna is 99% complete 🔥🪵🏆 Just exterior paint and some lower bench planks left to install This was a 5 day marathon of building with my father in law and uncle 88 sq feet, fully insulated, seats 15 people We designed and built this from scratch for under $5k

@Timb03 So if your are keeping it free, will you set up ad revenue?

Today's self-help book

@CollinRugg *Searches consumer EMP device

NEW: Elon Musk introduces an army of Optimus robots, says people will be able to buy them to complete tasks. Epic. Musk then said attendees could walk up to the Optimus robots who would do things like serve drinks. "At scale, you should be able to buy an Optimus robot for $20,000 - $30,000." "It can walk your dog, mow your lawn, get the groceries, just be your friend."

@Codie_Sanchez In-person vs remote isn't the problem here. It's the 90,000 hours that take you away from your family/church/community. No version of "work" is going to solve sadness and lonliness

Hard truth realized as a CEO. Those who work from home do a lot less work at home. But it’s more than productivity. I think WFH is one of our greatest disservices to a new generation of adults. The average person will spend 90,000 hours with coworkers over their lifetime. Do you think 90,000 zoom meetings is going to improve your mental health? We could solve most of youth loneliness if we got back in in-person startups, building things. A small group with sleepless nights and shared goals is a powerful thing. You are sad, lonely, failing? Go to the office. Remote work was a scam.

@abigailotwell If only we aged as well as the office does

@jordanmriddle I know! 😭 I remember when the 8th season was on tv, I was 21 about to have our second baby.. 🥹 She’s 12 now..

Omg how is Pam from The Office 50?! 😭
