So whatever you do, don't be bored, this is absolutely the most exciting time we could have possibly hoped to be alive. And things are just starting.

I learned that Brian Epstein wrote all of the Beatles songs when I took the reading comprehension portion of the ACT.

@ProfMJCleveland The US also has an expatriation tax. 🤔

When you find yourself erecting the equivalent of a Berlin Wall around your state to keep people from escaping, you just might be a Communist.

Every time that I play that Radical Face "Welcome Home" song on the bluetooth speaker, my wife tells me that a guy named Elliott Smith stabbed himself in the heart.

@xAsamoahx It really whips the llama's ass!

lets talk about how syphilis didnt appear in Europe till after Christopher Columbus came back from America but didnt exist in people from the Americas either until then. lets talk about how the only animals syphilis was found in before then were llamas.

If you live in the suburbs, then you know that the snow plow drivers are the real domestic terrorists.

@brim006 I was thinking that post-COVID there's a realization that the degrees worth getting have a moat. Medical spend is like 18% of GDP so there's certainly money to be made in that field. Could certainly be the aviation program though.

@lasergooser It’s always been that way though so why such a drastic change all the sudden? I know the aviation dept has been growing rapidly so maybe a lot is coming from there

Why or how is this happening? I would’ve fully expected both to be growing enrollments.

It's wild to me that if you blame our problems on the whole government, then you're a tinfoil hat-wearing crazy person; but if you only blame half of the government for our problems, then you're a good citizen who clearly wants what's best for your country.

Bitcoiners, You guys are snobs. Yeah, seriously, you're totally elitist. You feel like the unappreciated scholars, so you shit on the people who know less than you. Which is everybody. That's so sad.

@CryptoCloaks I'd love one and I'll wear it

Y'all loved these hats and actually wear them. Fucking love it, Let's give two more away. Only reply if you'll actually wear it. I want it to go to a good home. Reply with something you've snagged from the shop or got gifted. Winner chosen Wednesday.

To the mediocre, it will always look like luck. This is how they can absolve themselves of accountability for not seeing the obvious, likely because they don't want to see it.

Me sober: I think that I'm pretty good at what I do, I guess, maybe, I mean it seems that way, probably. Me drunk: I'M THE BEST AT WHAT I DO. Conclusion: Successful people's regular experience is similar to my experience when intoxicated. Now I understand.

The lesson today is about waiting for people who are more important than you.

@NeilJacobs If Bitcoin goes to zero, imagine what everything else looks like.

There is NOTHING that can shake me out of my Bitcoin position. I’ll ride it to zero.
