Weird times …

The new @theallinpod episode is pretty good.

I need to go to a shooting range and start practicing again. 🔫

As we get closer to 2030… Remember, you’ll own nothing and you’ll be happy. 🙃

Yep

2027 is def gonna be an intense year.

I just want to see a sky like this 🥺

I guess I’m prepping this weekend.

I really want to be positive about Canada but… so many people I know who run their own businesses either left the country to live elsewhere because of the cost of living here and the opportunity to make more money elsewhere… or want to leave the country. 😔 Is it that bad or am I just in an echo chamber?

All I want is someone to go through life with, have fun with, fight with, and process everything happening in the world with… including the US midterm. 🤪

Last minute skipping my DJing class.🎶 Gonna do some work and follow the US midterms at home instead. 🙃

One thing I’ve always noticed is how many people born and raised in developed countries like Canada with a victim mindset aren’t even victims, yet they’ve somehow found a way to position themselves as such to create “art” and build a name for themselves in media and the arts. You see this particularly often in cities like Montreal and Toronto. As though having parents, aunts, and uncles who helped them get into prestigious universities and opened doors to opportunities most people could only dream of weren’t enough. Now, they have to perform victimhood, too, and turn it into an identity to give themselves some edge or to stand out and get attention. However, it’s so common now that it’s so obvious how performative it is. Like, if you are born in Canada and you’ve got relatives or parents who opened up doors for you, you’ve lived a life of privilege, and you didn’t escape poverty or war or some abusive environment/relationship or oppressive regime, you’re not a victim. You’re a performer and an attention seeker.

Yep

Who are you going to have by your side during the cyber pandemic of 2027-2030? Most people have no idea what’s coming.🤯

While 6 planets are in retrograde 👀

. @elonmusk is unstoppable. 🤯 Many Canadians may not like him, but seriously, how many companies are building something like this right now that could genuinely improve the lives of people with disabilities? You don’t have to like someone to recognize innovation when you see it.

🚨New Original & Unconventional @oaupod episode is now on YT. In this episode, I sit down with Montreal-based business owner Kaz for an unfiltered conversation about solitude, vulnerability, masculinity, relationships, and the people we choose to surround ourselves with. From why you should be selective about whom you trust with your weaknesses to why good women finish last too, we challenge conventional wisdom about men, women, relationships, and success. 🎙️Is vulnerability always a strength, or does it depend on who you're vulnerable with? Drop your take in the comments. youtu.be/tb1KXAY38Gg?si=o_Hj…

Damn…

It’s so important to choose a partner who is financially mindful and pays attention to what’s happening in the world, particularly when it comes to making sound financial decisions. Many people are so driven by ego and confirmation bias that they become convinced their predictions about the future are correct. They ignore new information, whether it comes from geopolitical tensions, market trends, technological disruptions, or cultural shifts, simply because it challenges what they already believe. Sometimes, people become so attached to predictions they’ve publicly made that admitting they might be wrong becomes an ego issue rather than a rational decision. But the ability to reassess your position when new information emerges is a strength, not a weakness. And when it comes to building a life with someone, that kind of intellectual humility and financial awareness matters.
