Just a few days before the calendar ticked over into the year 2000, one of the greatest racing games ever was released for the PlayStation: Gran Turismo 2 (December 16, 1999).
It was the reason I bought a PlayStation. I first saw the game at a friend's house and we played it ad nauseam. As a faithful PC gamer, racing games of that caliber were obviously impossible to play on PC.
Everything about Gran Turismo 2 was great: incredible graphics (for its time), great music, cool sound effects (the gear-shift sound lives rent-free in my head), and most importantly, excellent gameplay - especially the option to buy new/better cars by winning races and to then modify them further with better suspension, engines, etc.
There was a time we played it non-stop for weeks, pretty much every evening. I guess student life was pretty good...

This is sad. I know as a politician these companies are going to spend a billion dollars against me for saying it but 🤷🏽♀️
Pervasive gambling is not good for society. It turns life into a casino, traps people in addiction & debt, surges domestic violence, and fosters manipulation.

Your first meme was probably a Chuck Norris fact. Mine was. He died yesterday in Hawaii at 86, ten days after posting a video of himself throwing punches on his birthday. His caption: “I don’t age. I level up.” This is a little tribute.
The real Chuck Norris was wilder than any meme about him. He lost his first three karate tournaments, then went 65-5 over the next decade. Six-time undefeated world middleweight karate champion. Black belts in five different disciplines. First person ever inducted into the Black Belt Hall of Fame, and the only martial artist to be named to it three separate times.
His student Steve McQueen told him to try acting. That led to a fight scene opposite Bruce Lee in Way of the Dragon (1972), which became the highest-grossing film in Hong Kong that year. Then Walker, Texas Ranger ran 9 seasons on CBS, 194 episodes, broadcast in over 100 countries.
But his biggest cultural moment started with a college freshman’s joke. In 2005, a Brown University student named Ian Spector built a random fact generator on the Something Awful forums. It was originally about Vin Diesel. When the novelty faded, Spector ran a poll with 12 celebrity options. Chuck Norris wasn’t on the list. He won anyway, by write-in landslide.
By early 2006, the Chuck Norris Fact Generator was pulling 20 million pageviews a month. This was before Twitter existed, before Facebook was public, before YouTube had a single viral hit. A college kid’s joke website about a semi-retired action star became one of the most visited humor pages on the internet. It spawned six books (some hit the New York Times bestseller list), two video games, and a scene in The Expendables 2 where Sylvester Stallone’s character recites a Chuck Norris fact to Chuck Norris’s face.
When asked about his favorite fact, Norris said it was: “They tried to carve Chuck Norris’ face into Mount Rushmore, but the granite wasn’t hard enough for his beard.”
The meme ran for 21 years. Most memes last weeks. Chuck Norris Facts introduced more people to Chuck Norris than his movies ever did. For everyone born after 1995, he was never an aging action star or a karate champion. He was the guy who counted to infinity. Twice. The guy whose tears cure cancer, too bad he never cried.
The last thing the internet saw from Chuck Norris was him throwing punches on his 86th birthday. Which is, honestly, the most Chuck Norris fact of all.

Client was a VP at a large company.
62 years old. Was going to work until 65.
January: called into HR.
Severance package. Sign by Friday.
He called me that afternoon.
"I think I just got retired."
No transition. No goodbye lunch. No plan.
His whole identity was that job.
His social life was those people.
His purpose showed up every morning at 7:45am.
The money was fine. We figured out the money in two meetings.
The identity took a few years.
He told me recently: "The hardest part wasn't losing the job. It was realizing I'd built my whole life inside someone else's building."
Retirement that happens to you hits completely differently than retirement you choose.
Millions of people in their 60s are navigating this right now and nobody is talking about it.

the real new year isn't on january 1st. it's actually today, March 20th, on the spring Equinox. Ancient Rome changed it to January to account for taxes. but when they did this all other months fell out of alignment. October from Oct should really be the 8th month and December from Dec the 10th.
because of this we're no longer in tune with the proper solar cycle and that's why the end of the year feels rushed. it's also way more powerful to set New Years resolutions in Spring as everything is blooming. nobody wants to start a new habit when they're freezing their ass off. so Happy New Year. today's your day to start fresh.

Let me explain exactly why every new subdivision in America looks like the top photo, because the math is wild.
A mature tree increases a home's value by 7 to 19 percent. On a $400,000 house, that's $28,000 to $76,000. A single shade tree produces the cooling equivalent of ten room-size air conditioners running 20 hours a day. One tree on the west side of a house cuts energy bills by 12 percent within 15 years. The bottom photo is worth more, costs less to live in, and sells faster. This has been documented by the University of Washington, Clemson, Michigan State, and the USDA. The data is not in dispute.
Removing those trees saves the builder roughly $5,000 per lot. Concrete trucks need twice the dripline radius of every standing tree. Utility trenches need flat ground. A bulldozer flattens 200 lots in an afternoon. Preserving trees adds weeks and thousands per home.
So the developer pockets $5,000 in savings and the buyer eats $50,000 in lost value for the next two decades. The person making the decision and the person paying for it have never been in the same room.
The Woodlands, Texas is the proof of what happens when they are. George Mitchell bought 28,000 acres of Houston timberland in 1974 and preserved 28% as permanent green space. He forced McDonald's to build behind the tree canopy. That McDonald's became one of the highest-volume locations in Texas. The first office building, designed to reflect the surrounding forest so you couldn't see it from the street, leased completely.
The Woodlands median home price today: $615,000. Katy, a comparable Houston suburb that clear-cut: $375,000. Named #1 community to live in America two years running.
Fifty years of data. The trees are worth more than removing them saves. Developers clear-cut anyway because they sell the house once and leave. You live in it for 30 years.
