@johnfio_ that’s across the street. if you were on the steps you’d see the several homeless people that sleep on them daily
it’s the most beautiful building in new england and it’s treated like a slum
" Kanye is like a pre-seed/angel investor in memes."
@eriktorenberg & @SherwoodStrauss on Kanye's cultural prescience:
" I think he's got an attraction to taboo. I think that's a huge motivator, and that's why he was so into the MAGA hat."
"These taboo ideas, he's got an audience, and that appears to be a loadstar for Kanye West."
"And that particular loadstar is sometimes an insight into where some of the mainstream culture might head."
@MTSlive@eriktorenberg@SherwoodStrauss you don't need to put it through your striver linguistics, you can just post:
"Ye was right again, I am a mentally cucked poser who wears the veil of a contrarian to extract maximum value"
but you won't even use his real name
Have you seen the kid on social media who interviews rich people on the street and asks them "what they do for a living?"

All staged.
it is a good discovery period for young people who are majority built to be aimless out of high school. for me it was an opportunity to get random internships + startup jobs i probably wouldn’t have if i wasn’t a “student” despite most of my learning being at those jobs and self exploration outside the classroom. some professors will teach you valuable life lessons too, but only if you seek them out independently
but pre-med track seems to over fit for a lot tho, and removes the serendipity or exploration from the equation completely. just my observation from others who’ve gone down it
