Social media trends have turned the world’s most beautiful places into endless bathroom lines at a concert, where everyone waits for hours just to take the same photo to show to people who couldn’t care less 🌎📸

Nothing captures the shallow decay of our time better than this

Hear me out. A gym membership that gets cut to half price if you go 10 (eg) times a month. Easy to track (sign in/out system) and sells the outcome - a gym habit, not the activity.

The goal of a game is to win; the purpose of a game is to have fun. In toxic games, the goals overwhelm the purpose. You can win a game by mastering it, but also feel crap by failing to see that there is a larger game whose rules you have broken in order to feel like a winner.

If only we can have the perspective of the future with us as we live in the present

AI tools have made me more productive, creative, and capable than I've ever been. They've also made me lazier in ways I didn't notice until recently.

The trick is using AI to amplify skills and judgment not replace them.

There is only one dreamer fractured through the innumerable, all of us playing our role. The absolute best and worst universes exist simultaneously

If anyone can build anything then what value is building? Wont everything in tech be eventually near worthless?

Choice is the act of hesitation just before we make a decision.

This is why most people consume instead of create. The artist, the writer, the creator within you died of suffocation long ago. Starved for the oxygen of empty space, silence, presence.

[Chris Platts @ChrisPlatts]

Every original thought, every authentic creation, every genuine expression requires space. But most people have no space. Our minds are a hard drive with zero free memory, completely full of installed software, running background processes constantly.

[Chris Platts @ChrisPlatts]

Guilt requires past, anxiety requires future. Regret requires past, hope requires future. Resentment requires past, worry requires future.
Present moment only? No suffering. Just what is.

[Chris Platts @ChrisPlatts]

Ya know, we're never gonna survive unless we get a little...crazy.
