me when my friends are having a bad day: that’s your anxiety talking. i promise it won’t always feel like this and I love you no matter what
me when i have a bad day: this time i have finally realized the Truth. that i am bad and my life will never get better
luckily bookmark rot is an easy problem to fix now
here's how to turn every X bookmark you've ever saved into a second brain your agent has full context on:
1. export your bookmarks. i use twitter-web-exporter (free userscript) or the BookmarkSave extension. you get one file with every bookmark + the full text + the author + the link
2. drop that file into a folder. if you already run an llm wiki / obsidian vault, drop it straight in so your bookmarks join the rest of your knowledge
3. point your agent at the folder (claude code, codex, hermes, whatever you run) and tell it: "read this export and turn every bookmark into its own markdown note with the original link and a couple of topic tags"
that's it, your agent has read all of it.
now you can ask "what have i saved about pricing" or "pull everything i bookmarked on claude code" and it answers across the whole pile
takes maybe 10 minutes
after that they actually get used, and every new bookmark folds into the same brain instead of rotting in a tab you never open again
[looking at people younger than me] you have your whole life ahead of you, [looking at people older than me] you have your whole life ahead of you, [looking at myself] it's over.
Insane how you could be in the coolest place ever but then you get back to California and all of the colors are like 1.5x more saturated and the light is slightly brighter. Absurd place
not sure if anyone is at Bluesky. when I visit the site all is calm, unchanging; I have not had a single new follower in many months; exchanges are always interesting & intelligent but relatively few. Bluesky exudes the air of an upscale mall, beautifully maintained, hushed.
one will likely not be mobbed or mugged here but one will likely not feel a quickening of the heart, a jab of adrenaline. Twitter may be a "cesspool"-- at least in some quarters--but I think of it as lively like the old Madison Square Garden: raucous, unpredictable, obnoxious, good fun, surprises.
YouTubers be like “wake up at 4am and run, that’s alpha!” No, it’s not. Look at apex predators; they’re all lazy. Bears hibernate, lions sleep all day. You know who wakes up at 4am and runs? Squirrels.
Norm Macdonald spoke of this:
"Women are attracted to funny men, it is often said. This is not true. It only appears this way because women laugh at everything a very handsome man says. So this gives the very handsome men the idea that they are funny."
It’s Mother’s Day and we have 3 kids under 4.
Decided to go big.
Booked a night at the nicest hotel in Napa so I can get out of her hair and do some golf and a spa day and she can spend the weekend alone at home relaxing with our kids who she loves so much. 🥰😊🥰
