Why is it ‘cancelled’ in the U.K. but ‘canceled’ in the U.S.?

Because we gave them that L in 1776.

something i’ve realized watching all of this play out

a sandwich that jumps from $8 to $14 never goes back to $8. rent that climbs from $1,400 to $2,200 stays at $2,200 forever.

gas, groceries, insurance, all of it. prices only move in one direction

inflation becomes permanent the moment everyone accepts the new number.

and we always accept it because we have no other choice

then workers ask for raises just to survive the prices they had nothing to do with creating.

and suddenly they’re the problem. they’re “hurting the economy” by wanting to afford food

the economy for who exactly.

because whoever it’s working for it sure as hell isn’t us

Fahrenheit is based on human experience:
0° is fucking cold. 100° is fucking hot.

Celsius is based on at sea level water:
Water freezes at 0° and boils at 100°

A. Celsius is flawed because water freezes and boils at different temperatures depending on altitude.

B. When I ask what the temperature is, I’m asking for myself. I don’t give a fuck how water feels about the weather.

A reminder from Atomic Habits by James Clear:

“New goals don't deliver new results. New lifestyles do. And a lifestyle is a process, not an outcome. For this reason, all of your energy should go into building better habits, not chasing better results.”

The mistake is thinking that the World Cup is about soccer. It’s not. It’s about gathering a collection of the world’s greatest binge drinking goofballs and giving them a month to show us all their best.

I'm a connoisseur of dumb redneck shit and it's been years since something has impressed me. Don't let the flawlessness of its execution rob you of awe of its skill and danger.

Underrated life hacks:
- pray first thing every morning, last thing every night
- always keep an open notebook and pen within sight
- halve the amount time you allot yourself to read books & do your work
- extend your vision out by 5-10 years, then reverse engineer to present
- every time you catch yourself worrying, immediately surrender it to God
- never stop learning, ever, no matter what
- recognize no one is stopping you more than yourself

A lot of stagnation comes from letting comfort make small decisions that ambition should have made.
