Have you noticed this shift in the film industry? The disappearance of well written indy films with incredible dialogue. In the 2010s we saw so many great indy films being released. Now everything is too “Marveled” out.

There’s a format when you’re halfway through breaking a bad habit: Before halfway, you’re mostly resisting old patterns. After halfway, you start embodying the new pattern. The subtle shift is enormous. It reduces friction and decision fatigue. It becomes less a fight and more like a trajectory.

One of the pitfalls of freedom is not recognizing where to place boundaries. In some cases, regulation exists to curb this. In other cases, there is none

It always feels clean to go in and purge delete a trove of old superfluous tweets on Bluesky, Twitter, etc. Get rid of the non relevant stuff to the life log you want to read years later

We haven’t seen the sun in almost 2 weeks here in California. Although that is not abnormal, however what is a bit off is its cloudy and fogging with zero rain. Usually when it’s like this we get rain hand in hand. Weird weather.

Due to the rise in surveillance capitalism there is never more of a time to act straight in public. In other words, treat people nice and behave yourself. The latter can now come with serious consequences to your career and livelihood

What is this flu going around? It’s intense. I’ve had it 10 days. Energy levels still low and coughing up a storm

Google has been investing in geothermal technology to generate electricity in northern Nevada. These are the kind of moves by Google that I admire. Companies that invest in clean and sustainable resources are future replenishers and not selfish thinking depleters

Not to knock on Michael burry because permabears like him do provide a necessary balance and perspective to the market but…the guy got one thing right a hundred years ago. Let’s not take everything he says as fact. The market is a speculation environment. No one has a crystal ball in the game

Say what you want about California’s strict guns laws but know that the CDC data shows California had the 7th lowest gun death rate in 2023, with about 8.5 deaths per 100,000 people, compared to the national average of 14.3. These laws are working and saving lives

I’m surprised no one has launched a metals exchange being buyers and sellers of gold and silver with a nominal fee for the transaction. Selling/buying metals always comes with a higher/lower than spot price when going to conventional stores. A real time exchange for the public

The calm mind wins the long game. Reactionary behavior is ego driven instinct. Calmness is intelligence. There is an energy economy of a calm mind. Feeding anger expands, feeding an empathic approach, allows for a clear head

It’s estimated that humans have been around for 300,000 years. Which means, which the exception of kings in tribes, etc…modern wealth and technology was introduced 299,800 years later and yet somehow we have it all figured out now? Maybe sticks and stones was humanity’s birthright and destiny

Everyone should formulate an opinion on social issues by framing the question “if this happened to someone in my family, how would I feel?”
