some advice i gave to my friend: your value as a man should never be reduced to how you look. on dating apps that’s all you are—your height, & your face. it’s an endless police lineup for women to pick from, with nothing else factored in. the apps flattens you into a 2D commodity, judged in milliseconds. if you value yourself in any meaningful way, you should never partake in such a marketplace, ever.
Just for my personal pride, I would like to state that the father of my children was the first american druid in diablo to clear abattoir of zir and ended that season as best in the USA. He was also ranking in Polytopia, and beat Felix himself at the game. I did observe these things with my own eyes. There are other witnesses who can verify this. That is all.
vibe capital was born out of the realization that traditional diligence is just the polite lie we tell ourselves after making decisions with our gut. no pitch decks, no financials, no fake “process”—just human connection. we invest in founders with ideas that make us feel alive. we’re betting that intuition beats spreadsheets & that founders thrive when they’re treated as the connoisseurs of culture not as risks to be mitigated. if the idea makes us smile, shiver, or swear under our breath, we’re in. we believe capital is commodity, but vibes are scarce.
we are no longer building bicycles for the mind, we are molding prosthetics for the psyche.

A dangerous mistake “smart people“ do is to completely dismiss someone’s overall conclusion just because they got some detail wrong 👇

Well said from @tylercowen
this is one of the best essays I’ve read all year and really cleanly articulates all of the thoughts I’ve been yelling to ppl about for a while
The basic issue is that either you are running a global empire with 750+ military bases worldwide, the world reserve currency, the headquarters of the UN in New York, and so on — in which case you really do need to be global #1 on everything — or you are just running a country. If you are just running a country, then that's fine, you don't need to be a platform for global anything. But the transition from "global empire" to "country" is jarring as it's the transition from the USSR to Russia. And when you shed the empire’s downside, you lose the empire’s upside.
