Inspiration is ENDLESS

Wow this is absolutely going to fry people especially at Anthropic, this is like the Anti-Claude Constitution.

They just declared war on everyone researching model welfare.

Influencers are the private equity of culture: draining whatever’s “cool” until higher prices and worse experiences push out the original fan base. Then they move on to the next thing, leaving the original to die as fans lose interest or the ability to participate.

[Franklin Leonard @franklinleonard]

Brilliant idea. Utterly brilliant.

I remember asking assistant coach Mo Cheeks, what’s harder to do? Workout after practice or before?? I only asked cuz by time I would get to the gym, Russ was already done in the morning and I usually got mine in after practice. Mo like, “coming in before practice is probably harder”…since then, it’s been my routine….a lot of people looked at the emotions on the court and thought Russ was loud, nah to me, he was quiet and methodical. He lead by example and once the lights were bright, he let everything out and experienced pure freedom. It was inspiring as his teammate and everywhere I went, I seen it inspire people from all walks of life, crazy thing is, he didn’t say much, he just showed up. For 18 years. This basketball life is sacred to us as professionals, what we put into that court means everything. Some of us wish we could go back and do things with a little more intent and some can just wipe their hands and be satisfied with the time spent. Who u gonna be? We know what zero was on…keep inspiring in the next phase of life champ. I don’t care what happens, can’t erase what it was…The first YNs, finals run in our early 20s, all star games, seeing each other get injured and bounce back, the bus rides, plane rides, card games, jokes and arguments, the whole thing, memorable!! …to the whole Westbrook family, Nina, the kids, mama Westbrook, big Russ, Ray, Donnell, everybody from luezinger high and ucla and many more that I’m forgettin, much love and Congratulations on a iconic career.

Truly need you to be a stop on every major films press tour. Incredible job.

Agnes Callard’s theory of the “uni-context” predicts that once people live, and perceive others to live, in universal rooms, they will talk:

a) more about bad things than good things; and

b) more about identity than character

… since the latter in both cases tends to depend more on context. ie, you can be irascible or generous in specific contexts but you are your gender and ethnicity across contexts.

Pessimism of the intellect, optimism of the will

[KFC @KFCBarstool]

Loved this defensive play when I just thought it was a nice deflection from Landry. Seeing this makes it 1000x better.

This is what's possible if government was run by millennials and not a gerontocracy that has a primary objective of hoarding wealth.

I think this is why sf earnestness doesn’t get nyc irony:

The idealist, who’s rigidly fixed on innovating a better future, sees gritty irony as evil and mean when it’s actually the will to win in a radically flawed world and an exuberant defiance of despair, which, compared to an earnestness that insists on “goodness”, is actually a deeper authentic optimism
