@dailystoic@RyanHoliday Enjoy.
On the hunt for a Marcus Aurelius quote cautioning against surprise when encountering the two words you used in a reel, stupid and incompetent.
Finding many less pithe quotes.
@RyanHoliday
Do you have something more pithe that you can find, with those two keywords in it?
Greetings from San Francisco, where it is raining today, and from a country in which fascism was recently installed in all three branches of government.

“Begin each day by telling yourself: today I shall be meeting with interference, ingratitude, insolence, disloyalty, ill-will, and selfishness – all of them due to the offenders’ ignorance of what is good or evil.”

@dailystoic@RyanHoliday Posting this in various places on your social media to get your attention.
In one of your wonderful reels, you explained that if the viewer is frustrated with stupid or incompetent people, that that is on them, according to Marcus Aurelius.
Biden made banks stop surprising you with hidden charges. That's gone now.

It looks like you succeeded in getting Trump reelected.
You made excuses for him. You refused to cover the batshit crazy things he said and did. You sanewashed him at every turn.
Looks like you got what you wanted.
If the GOP wins the house, the senate, and the presidency, this will be our last real election.
Sure they’ll let us pretend we still have them, but they will gerrymander, pass laws, stack the Supreme Court, and make it so that anyone who isn’t like them can never win again.
Joe Biden needs to burn this motherfucker to the ground!
Pardon Hunter, forgive all student loans, use the executive orders to ban assault rifles, reinstate Roe V Wade, lock it up so tight trump will take months to untie it all!
Dark Brandon has no fucks left to give!
I have NEVER seen anyone as thoroughly eviscerated as Donald trump was by Kamala Harris that night, he was never the same after that.
It's one of my all-time favorite moments of 2024. ENJOY! 🍿
Really is a tough call.
On one hand - every Nobel prize winning economist is adamantly stating that Harris has a significantly better economic plan
But on the other hand - the dumbest people I’ve ever interacted with say Trump is a good businessman
Quite the dilemma
We are days away from Trump fleeing the country to avoid prison. All we have to do is vote. Go to the polls, bring your friends and family, and help us usher in a way forward of President Kamala Harris.
