@RyanHoliday I love receiving Daily Stoic and Daily Dad every morning. I have a question. What do you think of this book: The Case Against Death by Ingemar Patrick Linden. Should we cast off our acceptance of death or have a healthy fear if it so that we may overcome it as a species?

@curaffairs Ever see Star Trek: Generations. This whole things smacks of the Nexus, that wandering energy ribbon where you can live in a fantasy world where nothing matters. That's the real difference between this reality and a virtual one: here there are consequences.

@Tully @rcbregman Haven't read it yet, but I can offer up some other evidence we're not all basically bloodthirsty barbarians at heart: the military. The fact that we have to train people for months and years to be able to kill. If we were already all killers, then...

@IndeedSupport Hey, Support. Just so you know, the apply links for all jobs are either leading to one job posting, or say that I've already applied to this job. Thanks.

Status Quo Bias: Those who were unfazed by Covid because it had a ~1% fatality rate were suddenly concerned about vaccines when they yielded a 1 in a ~million fatality rate. People see the risks of doing something but not the risks of doing nothing.

[Andrew Philip R @inversal55]

@G_S_Bhogal Yes. We keep treating all the global issues as a village size issue, as if we can just sit down and chat it out and get everyone on board. Wrong, village brain.

THIS! My good friend Sam Humphrey (Tom Thumb in The Greatest Showman) has been officially cast as Ranger Raccoon in Gary K. Wolf's (Creator of Who Framed Roger Rabbit?) new animated film. https://t.co/Y43O5r6qYO

@meghan_daum Reading it right now. That could work. Also: Everything Wrong With Everything Left. (liberal, by the way)

Not the grossest thing I've ever seen, but...

I imagine this is what the greets you when you enter Hell.

@SamHarrisOrg A better way to put it: DEMILITARIZE THE POLICE. Cut funding from having to maintain standing armies and put it elsewhere.

[Andrew Philip R @inversal55]

We got lulled into thinking we had seen the end of history. False. We're making history as we speak, but which side of it will you be on?

[Andrew Philip R @inversal55]

@SamHarrisOrg We create our own madness. Social media is a form of power given to everyone without thought of responsibility or consequence. It's an expression of freedom, but it is also a neverending onslaught of information, most of it negative. Our minds weren't built for this shit.

Car with white people: "Have a nice day!"
Care with black people: Swarm, tase, slash, burn, crush. Nope, there's nothing wrong here. #BlackLivesMatter

The Press Badge no longer offers protection. The Press is the enemy to the Power. They will not stop here.

[Andrew Philip R @inversal55]

It's obvious cops have been given orders to consider all citizens as enemies of the state. They are now soldiers, not protectors. Firing without provocation is not protection. It is pathetic. #blacklivesmatter #WeCantBreathe #Fightthecowards
