this is the time and occasion to rest, store energy and mana, gather patience, digest lessons, make art, take care of oneself, make oneself Ready
New York is lowkey boring when it’s rainy and you don’t wanna leave your room

this is basically how social security worked, but then people started living too long and rather than letting their leveraged short get liquidated, the government just decided to continue depositing collateral in the form of your and my paychecks
Can I buy life insurance in someone else's name, like shorting them personally?

I was a camp counselor many years back and my friend cleared a ball into an intersection and a jeep got T-boned
Meanwhile in Uruguay, the soccer ball went off the field, onto the road, and caused a car crash

Think of hobbies less as time wasters and more as recalibrators. Tools that tap you in to states absent from your day to day. Flow, learning, creativity, collaboration, competition. Hobbies should feed something deeper than just consumptive urge. Men of great accomplishments often dedicate their lives to seemingly mundane hobbies because they feed this part of the spirit.

the wealthiest people i know all had one thing in common. they seemed genuinely interested in life. they asked questions. they noticed little details. they got excited about books, recipes, travel, music, ideas. curiosity is such an underrated kind of wealth.

One of the strategies I used to become more neurotypical was to pick out a random person on the street and follow them around for the entire day. I would carefully log all of their movements and observations I made. I still try to do this from time to time, but I get recognized alot which makes it hard.

Photographer Austin Bell has captured 1,441 courts throughout NYC. This is just a sample of the ones with the Parks Department leaf logo at center court. Mesmerizing.

Gym parking lot full on a Sunday afternoon. This is some kind of cultural exhaustion. I think we have societally scrolled to the “end of the timeline” and collectively run out of ideas. Nothing left, but preparing for a future that never arrives.
