If Elizabeth Warren is saying this-the woman who torpedoed Bernie’s campaign for the establishment-rest assured crypto is making some big people unhappy.
"If it is not making you happier, or healthier, or calmer, or having better relationships, or wealthier, then what good is it? It's useless. You can safely discard it."

You cannot get educated by this self-propagating system in which people study to pass exams, and teach others to pass exams, but nobody knows anything.
You learn something by doing it yourself, by asking questions, by thinking, and by experimenting. 🧠
Some want ineptitude to be the norm.
“Be authentic and natural. It’s okay to be a mess.”
Incompetence is “relatable” and “inclusive” because it’s where everyone starts.
It’s not where everyone should stop.
Cultivate excellence and excellence will become authentic and natural.
"Doctors won’t make you healthy.
Nutritionists won’t make you slim.
Teachers won’t make you smart.
Gurus won’t make you calm.
Mentors won’t make you rich.
Trainers won’t make you fit.
Ultimately, you have to take responsibility.
Save yourself."

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a $54 billion behemoth.
It's bigger than Marriott, Netflix, and Twitter...combined.
Yet 99% of us don't actually understand the business.
THREAD: The story of AWS & lessons we can learn from it
It occurs to me that a huge amount of suicide and mental illness is simply caused by the stress of living in and maintaing the secular materialist worldview.
If you can think, and speak, and write, you are absolutely deadly.
Writing is thinking formalized. You gain the ability to think by first learning to write very, very carefully. Then, when you can write effectively, you can do anything you want, and no one will stop you.
