I think ambitious people should treat life in “seasons” rather than trying to balance everything every day.

A few years massively overallocated to work. A period getting seriously fit. A year or two nomading. Then family takes priority for a while. Then maybe at 35 you go completely insane again and spend four years building a new company, and so on.

The mistake is thinking every metric needs to stay green all the time. Most great outcomes (building a company, writing sth serious, training for an event) need uninterrupted runs, not daily moderation. Sometimes work should suffer cause you’re travelling, sometimes your social life should suffer cause you’re building, sometimes career progression should slow cause family matters more. That’s fine.

And tbh it probably makes life more fun too. You get actual chapters and completely different versions of yourself instead of spending 40 years maintaining the same perfectly optimised routine. A few intense years in one city, a weird nomad phase, an obsession that takes over your life, then something completely different. Probably much more memorable than one very long well-optimised Tuesday.

It's why I encourage everyone to think of balance in years, not days. A good life can look horribly unbalanced on some random Tuesday and still be very balanced over 10 years.

If you're going to send me LLM generated text, please just send me the prompt you used to generate it instead.

I don’t think distillation should be illegal. You are using the official API and paying for it. Highly different from torrenting thousands of illegally pirated books.

@chelsssseeeea So, spending some money on getting justice is bad, but billions on supporting war and genocide is ok?

I still love Mamdani, but this take is brilliant

Hoping he acts on at least some of it

Zohran, with respect, New Yorkers did not elect you to become another commentator. They elected you to govern.

Whether or not you possess the legal authority to arrest Benjamin Netanyahu is almost beside the point. Most people understand that foreign affairs are largely a federal responsibility. The real question is whether you are willing to exhaust every power that actually belongs to your office.

If you believe Netanyahu is responsible for war crimes, then act as though those words carry consequences.

Publicly urge the New York Attorney General to investigate New York registered charities accused of facilitating or financing unlawful settlement activity in the occupied West Bank. If evidence supports it, call for the revocation of their tax exempt status and enforcement of existing state law.

Direct every city agency under your authority to ensure that no municipal resources are used beyond what the law strictly requires. New Yorkers should not see symbolic honors, ceremonial welcomes, or unnecessary accommodations extended to someone you yourself have described as a war criminal.

Defend the right of peaceful demonstrators to assemble, criticize, and demand accountability. Make it unmistakably clear that protest is not a public nuisance to be managed away, but a constitutional right to be protected.

Use the mayor’s platform relentlessly. Convene hearings. Publish reports. Demand transparency from institutions operating in New York that may be connected to settlement financing. Ask difficult questions in public instead of allowing them to disappear behind closed doors.

Political leadership is measured not only by the powers you possess, but by the powers you choose to exercise. History rarely remembers those who explained why they could not act. It remembers those who exhausted every lawful avenue before saying their hands were tied.

You have already made the moral argument. Now make the institutional one. New Yorkers do not need another voice describing injustice. They need a mayor willing to use every legal instrument available to confront it.

He didn't reverse shit.

Mamdani can't legally arrest him as he said.
