Can someone explain to me how some people go to sleep at night knowing that they DESTROYED someone out there? And not just anyone, but someone who loved them genuinely. Someone who gave them everything. Their HEART, their loyalty, their trust. EVERYTHING. And they knew what they were doing. They knew they were hurting them. How can someone like this go to sleep at night? i just don’t understand. i cannot comprehend. Can you be a human and still do that? HOW?
A psych-diagnosis doesn't identify what your problem is. It's rather, at best, an fumbling attempt to describe the form your suffering takes. Diagnosis has therefore nothing remotely useful to say about what generates your distress. That's the most generous take I can muster.
Your vacation leave balance can breathe a sigh of relief, as many holidays in 2026 are already set for a long weekend. 😎🧳

You don’t need an MBA or tons of money to start a business.
I recently had Chris Koerner on the pod and he showed me three regular 6-figure side hustles anyone can start THIS weekend.
Here they are (with real examples):
If you’re a smart person, one day if you pay close attention you’ll meet someone who is soooo much slower at thinking than you, but has superior metacognitive skills, a mastery of system 2 thinking, and it will completely change how you think about intelligence
An adult still being affected by hurtful things said or done to them in childhood is not “clinging to a grudge” - in fact they’ve often tried everything they can think of to try to get over or away from it. Nobody is willfully hanging onto childhood trauma for fun.
My main criticism of the new Philippine Senate building isn't even its cost and size (it can house 60+ senators despite the PH Senate only having 24 members and people blocking moves to expand it).
I hate it because it looks like a modernist abomination that screams more like a new luxury hotel-casino complex or a high-end shopping-mall than the Senate of the Republic. The architects should have added Neo-Classical or Neo-Renaissance touches and taken inspiration from Philippine pre-colonial and colonial architecture to better reflect the majesty of our history instead of creating a cold shell of glass and metal.
Government important buildings should be built with a sense of history, knowing that they will be photographed and admired for decades if not centuries to come. That's why Manila City Hall, the National Museum and the palaces of Intramuros are landmarks that are admired - because they scream timeless history and are aesthetically pleasing. Government can and should create timeless beauty if they're going to dish out billions of pesos.
Healing taught me that honesty wouldn't ruin a real thing. Speaking about your feelings won't lose you anything worth having. Setting boundaries won't scare off proper people. And authenticity won't cost you genuine relationships.
