Here's my family cookbook that I wrote for my three sons. https://t.co/bJFZZmISSV

@coookwithchris Solid. Only change I’d make is buying five more Good Culture cottage cheese tubs. They’re divine.

Because @WuTangClan played halftime. Got the @nyknicks fired up.

@CarmichaelDave I loved Zelda BOTW. How was Ocarina?

Maturity is the ability to prioritize values before feelings. The child does what feels right, the adult does what is right.

@TheWarKitchen Need me some Braunschweiger, Rocky.

@AJA_Cortes No doubt. Get a quality travel duffle. Pass it down to your sons. @WellBuiltStyle

Marc Andreessen: We need to drastically increase the number of founders:

"It's shocking to me how few people actually give entrepreneurship a shot. The fate of the world over the next 1,500 years is riding on the people who actually want to give it a shot."

@BioavailableNd Andra, this is gold. Thank you. Fingers crossed for an eventual cookbook.

Imagine you're 85. Body slower. Energy thinner. You get one wish: To come back and do it over. You open your eyes. You're here. This age. Strong, adventurous, capable. With people you love still within reach. You have one do-over, and you're sitting in it.

Live like it's your second time around.

@Patterdude Bakri is such a valuable follow. I’ve learned a ton.

This paragraph by Richard Feynman hits so hard:

“Fall in love with some activity, and do it! Nobody ever figures out what life is all about, and it doesn’t matter. Explore the world. Nearly everything is really interesting if you go into it deeply enough. Work as hard and as much as you want to on the things you like to do the best. Don’t think about what you want to be, but what you want to do. Keep up some kind of a minimum with other things so that society doesn’t stop you from doing anything at all.”

You can tell how emotionally mature someone is by how many things they take offense to.

Mike Brown describes one of my favorite concepts here with his take on the @nyknicks being "Antifragile".

@nntaleb says "Wind extinguishes a candle 🕯️ but energizes fire.” 🔥

Same composition, but different response to the conditions.

Being Antifragile describes a team that doesn’t merely survive stress, chaos, volatility, or pressure... it actually gets stronger because of it.

Inversely, when organizations eliminate all discomfort, all mistakes, all conflict, and all pressure, they unintentionally create weakness. #EasternConferenceFinals #ECF

@WellBuiltStyle These are great. I’d also add kitchen gear. Iron skillet, Japanese knives, whiskey glasses, old cookbooks.
