Wonderful to meet @EduardHabsburg at the Blessed Karl von Habsburg symposium in Dallas. Thank you for helping create such a gracious atmosphere in remembrance of Blessed Karl’s life, his love for his family and people, and his relationship with God. It was a blessing to attend!

All my unvaxxed homies are very unbothered by the latest headlines, are heavily allocated in crypto, and are becoming increasingly religious. This is no coincidence

@spacepunk I think just they are just different faces of the same Platonic solid. I am just one sentient being 😊

Twitter is wild because you're not talking to a specific person, not code switching, so you get to see extremely clearly what a person's inner monologue sounds like

people driven by shame always think they've intuited some genius level discernment by systemizing their embarrassment into a way of navigating reality that avoids ever encountering that shame and embarrassment but they're actually stupid and made stupider mechanically by doing so

@vegetalpuppet @ABorlandFan88 I think what you said made perfect sense. Unfortunately, people respond to pain and humiliation by creating such a thick shell from reality that they rarely come into actual contact with it ever again

My approach to boyfriends is the same as being a parent I tried really hard with the first and by the fifth I don’t really give a fuck if he eats off the ground or talks to me or whatever

@orphcorp I agree with "metabolize." It's true thoughts are like calories. The same way overeating misunderstands the purpose of eating, overthinking misunderstands the purpose of thinking. Your inner world needs to be actualized+metabolized into a vivid outer world, otherwise it just rots

if your introspection is making you think more, it's not introspection, it's rumination good number of ruminators falsely label themselves deeply introspective but contrary to introspection which helps metabolize thoughts/perceptions & lead to action, rumination only ends up digging a deeper hole, and prevents action, because preventing action is the point!
Nick@nickcammarata

i think this meme is hilarious. my take on all this: the point of introspection is to end up thinking less, not more, to be more in the flow, more productive, to dissolve into being itself. if your introspection is making you think more i recommend getting another one

@GianTheRios A friend of mine was recruited by Goldman Sachs bc they found her econ thesis on LinkedIn. She later landed her dream job at the Pentagon through a blog she kept while exploring off-the-beaten-path countries with her twin sister. One of the most authentic + obsessed people I know

If you’re looking for a role in crypto or AI and you didn’t go to ivy or work in FAANG (like me) I can’t stress enough how powerful your content or personal brand on X is your feed = your resume. 100% of my interviews have been inbound leads through my content or network.

I remember as a kid I once saw hideously spoiled fruit and it gave me chills. It looked so scary, chaotic, destroyed. Like the face of evil. Years later, in a discouraged moment, I explained to my mother what it felt like to put effort into my appearance, character, and inner life, and go out into the world only to have it lead nowhere lasting. I thought about it and admitted, perhaps somewhat colorfully, it felt like preparing an elaborate meal every day, only for it to go to waste. I worried that I myself was a meal that would go to waste. But I’ve realized that the abundant woman ENJOYS cooking. She enjoys the process and is alive to beautiful things, whether they’re seen or not. When Harper’s Bazaar asked Dita von Teese for her philosophy on lingerie, her answer: “I’ve always believed in wearing your best things every day.” So there is no concept of a “special occasion” or justification for the feast. In fact, life itself is the feast. You think you’re preparing a meal, but look in the mirror. Breathe in deeply, feel your body, look at the world around you. You are the one being given a feast; by fearing, YOU are the one abandoning it every day. So dress accordingly. Come home every day, set the table, make it habitual, joyful, generous. And one day, someone joins you. Nothing beautiful ever spoils.

The right wing hippy is a much more logical archetype than the left wing hippy. Nature itself is inherently right wing (i.e. hierarchical). All left wing politics are utopian (i.e. opposed to nature); leftism is defined by the violent imposition of man-made constructions like “equality” onto a wild, unequal, raw reality; the flattening of the Cosmos. The only natural analogue to left-wing values is heat death, the theoretical end of the universe, where all structures (i.e. differences, inequalities, borders) are dissolved into a state of maximal equality (i.e. nothingness), and which all living things resist by the very act of being alive. If you love living things and desire a natural way of being, you have to be right wing

The pseudo-casual hoodie signals “I’m above costume.” Which is the worst kind of costume. The same goes for the clipped register characteristic of upper-middlebrow tech intellectual tweets: lowercase, unpunctuated, low-gravity, neutered. A disembodied style that signals “I’m above being human.” Which produces the worst kind of human. Sexless, bloodless, spineless. Lightly stylized information processors. Factoid machines
@tomkruise@tom777kruise

there is a specific facial energy often joked about in these communities (the look of someone who is mentally simulating the end of the world). by looking slightly unkempt, they signal to the in-group that they are too busy saving humanity (or thinking about it) to care about low status tribal markers like fashion. it says "my value is in my arguments, not my appearance”. and since EAs reduce value to expected utility, they are aesthetically colorblind. their ultimate misalignment is with beauty. do not trust them.

Met someone with the most intensely blue eyes, almost white. I felt like a 12th-century Korean peasant seeing blue eyes for the first time, never even considering something so startling and absurd was possible. And yet my own eyes are blue. Obviously I knew that already. But this guy’s eyes were so unusually electric blue, it’s like they revealed the category to me. The waitress at the brunch spot. The little girl in the airport. My uber driver’s eyes in the rearview mirror. My own reflection. The blue is the first thing I see. I had taken blue eyes for granted as a background fact. Now they seem miraculous Sometimes another person embodies a quality so vividly that they illuminate your perception of it altogether, including in yourself.
