Norway fans are doing a “Viking Row” up the escalator at Boston’s South Station before heading to the World Cup
Adding this to the list of things I’ve never seen before and probably never will again
Il me met un ace à 228. J’étais là : Fuck, je fais devoir servir.
- Pas le mot en F s’il te plaît.
- Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.
- Nos excuses pour le langage. Corentin, je vais te poser une dernière question, s’il te plaît, reste poli […]
- Fuck. Fuck. Fuck.
The dynamic between Henry, Zlatan, and Alexi Lalas is a WILD watch.
Lalas spews awful analysis (always has) but delivers it with the confidence of a great, without the acumen
Zlatan is in a world of his own confidence-wise and Henry clearly has no respect for either of the other’s opinions.
No chemistry, tons of ego, 10/10
Jimmy Carr nailed something a lot of us feel but can’t explain.
We’re living better than 99.9% of humans who ever walked the earth, hot showers, modern medicine, endless entertainment, kids that actually survive infancy, yet so many of us feel miserable.
He calls it “life dysmorphia.” We get used to how good we have it (the hedonic treadmill), then compare ourselves to everyone else and tank our own happiness.
As he puts it: happiness = quality of life minus envy.
Marcus Aurelius put it perfectly: “Very little is needed to make a happy life; it is all within yourself in your way of thinking.”
When was the last time you caught yourself feeling unhappy despite objectively having it pretty damn good?
Ben Affleck says The Town’s coldest cop scene came from a real bank robber in prison
"for The Town, I went through all the prisons... Massachusetts federal prisons, state prisons, and sat down and talked to guys who robbed trucks and banks"
"after talking for two hours, I was like, is anything just fucking weird ever happened? and one guy said, we robbed this truck, we had the mask, we got the switch car"
"we pull up, we get out, fucking guns, the masks, whole thing... we look over and this cop's sitting there doing construction duty... he looked at us, we looked at him, he looked the other way... he didn't want to end up on the wall at the VFW"
"I was like, I'm putting that in the movie... that's straight from research"
autonomous robot driving through the field at night. no chemicals. no pesticides. just UV light killing pathogens and pests while everyone sleeps. this is @tricrobotics.
this is what chemical-free pest control looks like at scale.
Me: “Have sex with your husband.”
Women in my comments: “I don’t feel like it.”
Me: “He probably doesn’t feel like making money for you either.”
Women in my comments: “That’s not the same!!!”
A tale as old as time.
Marcus Aurelius was right when he said the crowd will forget you no matter what you do. So the only real question is whether you spent your years chasing their approval or actually living for yourself.
Human approval is unstable. Someone may praise you today and criticize you tomorrow, so it's wiser to anchor your life in deeper principles than in other people's opinions.
All the arguments against giving women the vote were right.
It turned out even worse than feared.
Involving women in politics has harmed men, women, children, and civilization itself.
Power is ultimately held by those who are willing to take it by force.
Men were given the vote so that they would not need to take it by force.
Women are incapable of taking power by force and therefore have no natural right to power.
Women also have no natural instinct for leadership. Men evolved to provide leadership for both men and women.
Most suicidal empathy and demands for DEI and equity are the result of feminine influence on politics.
Empathy for criminals and terrorists, and opposition to the death penalty, is largely feminine.
The desire for safe spaces, censorship, and for elevating being nice over being rational is feminine.
The feminization of civilization is the weakening of civilization.
Giving women the vote was a mistake.
Can’t get over Very Smart Person Eric Weinstein (who has a Harvard PhD) repeatedly mispronouncing the beer “Yuengling” and calling it “Chinese-sounding.” Impossible to take anything he said in the interview seriously after this:
