Atlas Shrugged made simple:

1. Society runs on a small number of highly capable producers – industrialists, inventors, engineers – whose work everyone depends on but takes for granted.

2. The system starts rewarding need over achievement: the more capable you are, the more you’re expected to sacrifice for those who aren’t.

3. Success gets treated like a debt – taxed, regulated, resented – until the most capable start asking why they bother trying at all.

4. One by one, led by a man named John Galt, they simply withdraw – walking away rather than keep propping up a system that punishes them for producing.

5. Without them, the whole structure collapses, revealing that the “automatic” prosperity everyone assumed was actually being generated by specific, irreplaceable people.

6. Atlas is the Titan from Greek myth, condemned to carry the sky on his shoulders forever – Rand’s stand-in for the producer class, holding up civilization while getting blamed for it.

7. “Shrugged” is the whole argument in one word: Atlas doesn’t fight, doesn’t protest – he just quietly sets the weight down. Nobody realized the sky was being held up by anyone in particular, until the day it isn’t.
You don’t want us? We just go…🤷🏻‍♂️

“But who’s gonna build the roads if we don’t pay taxes!?”

Meanwhile, the border between Monaco and France.

Monaco 0% taxes vs France 69% taxes.

Guess which one is Monaco…

Elon Musk was right when he said, "Go Get your fucking confidence back. Without it, you will fail miserably no matter how skilled or smart you are."

To fall asleep you first pretend to be asleep. That's how everything in life works.

A lot of modern cities feel like they were built for speed, not memory.

Places like Hallstatt, Rothenburg, and Colmar feel different because they were built with enough beauty to be loved for centuries.

🇳🇴🤯 A remarkable World Cup coincidence: in 1994, Erik Thorstvedt, Alf-Inge Haaland and Gøran Sørloth were part of Norway’s squad at the World Cup in the United States. Thirty-two years later, at the 2026 World Cup in North America, their sons — Kristian Thorstvedt, Erling Haaland and Alexander Sørloth — are representing Norway on the same stage.

Major cheat code for life: Learn to delay your reaction. Anger, fear, and impulse will try to make you move fast. There's power in pausing. In the pause, you see clearly, you respond wisely, and you avoid decisions you'll regret. Slow down to speed up.

[Blake Burge @blakeaburge]

Major cheat code for life: Assume good things are still ahead. You are not behind. You are not too late. You are not disqualified by your past. One new season can change the entire story. Keep showing up with belief. The best chapters are often written after the hardest ones.

I’m in love with this sentence:

“Your future is shaped by the habits you repeat, not the goals you set.”

Esta jovem atleta italiana, de 19 anos, bateu um recorde de salto triplo que durava 24 anos.
Mas ela recebeu da mídia 10% do tempo dedicado a outra atleta italiana de origem africana.
Isso é RACISMO.
Vamos expor os racistas.

ça ne rime plus à rien de mettre un drapeau sur une équipe de football si elle ne représente pas le pays.
