Oloture - a powerful, brutal, brave, honest look at the Nigerian sex trade by the brilliant storyteller @kennethgyang. Watch on Netflix and see the world from a heartbreaking point of view. https://t.co/8ZCdpzlmfl

Thanks @anthilemoon for helping me realize that the book buying habit I have is really in pursuit of building an antilibrary. I just didn't have the word for it. https://t.co/LqgQCyesaT

The best story wins, not the best or the newest idea. So true @morganhousel. That’s how we ended up with Donald Trump and he still lingers - he tells a good story. https://t.co/hq506YyARc

Start a stopwatch. Close your eyes. Open them when you feel like a minute has passed (without counting!)

5 day results --
Day 1 - :45
Day 2 - :51
Day 3 - 1:18
Day 4 - 1:04
Day 5 - :55

Amazing how different a minute can feel depending on the time and place

Powerful point from @m_sendhil on @TKPPodcast:

“Think of how a botanist walking in the woods is walking in a very different woods than you or I. Same physical space, different mental space.”

Every situation looks different to each person involved.

@AaronBosshardt This story was on CNN tonight. They said it might not be Proud Boys specifically but could be some other hate group or foreign actors, but that it’s a fairly sophisticated operation.

[Kara Van Malssen @kvanmalssen]

@AaronBosshardt Omg!

@fortelabs Discovery is critical to uncovering what the problem actually is. Often people start solving the wrong problem, which will inevitably fail. Discovery is a chance to uncover what the real issues are, from a variety of perspectives. From here, effective solutions can be built.
