@manueloandy True, but Owen would probably do well against a modern high line

AI is so popular because it gives uncreative people the illusion that they are creative. It lets them skip right to the part where they get validation. It’s not only parasitic, but extremely narcissistic.

This is mental illness. If your personality is composed solely of your sleep stats and macros consumption, then all you’re telling people is that you are pathologically vain and *extremely* boring. This stuff should be heavily stigmatized.

The trend of optimizing your life to the point of never having a drink or eating something “bad” likely does more harm than good over the long term. Living your life through some app or a spreadsheet is an easy way to suck the everliving joy out of it.

Go have some fun.

The not-drinking-alcohol trend has turned into hysterical wellness babble. It’s one thing to approach alcohol with intention, but another to fear it so much that you claim that a couple glasses of wine ruined their life. Oh no, you skipped a gym session? You “podcasted worse”? You got suboptimal deep sleep for one night? The horror.

I don’t believe the obsession with “optimization” is healthy. People are slaves to their wellness devices and trackers. They allow data (a lot of which is probably not even that accurate) to dictate their life. It’s a very odd thing to demand that you must feel your 100% most optimized every minute of the day in order to live well. We are not robots.

Look at the pockets of the world that live the longest, healthiest lives. They smoke cigarettes and enjoy wine with the people they love. It is no coincidence that the rates of depression and anxiety, SSRI use, and loneliness are rising alongside the sharp decline of people hanging out with friends and just drinking some alcohol.

Nobody is saying you should drink every night or abuse booze. But my goodness enjoy life. And I say this as someone who has had only a few drinks in the last year fwiw.

I’m 43 now. I’ve worked 50-70 hours a week my entire adult life. I’ve lost years of time with my children and loved ones just so we could afford to live. This life is not only cruel, but unnecessarily cruel. A better world is possible.

[Matt Walsh @MattWalshBlog]

The health consciousness stuff has gone massively overboard. People walking around with bands tracking their vital signs every second of the day like they’re astronauts on the ISS. Treating alcohol or sugar like it’ll kill them if they look at it. Tracking their sleep. Counting their steps. It’s possible to live a healthy life without being an obsessive, paranoid lunatic. You’re gonna die either way. In a few decades you’ll be just as dead as the rest of us, if not sooner. Relax a little and live your life while you still can.

Why do Americans always have to be so fucking weird about everything, but particularly alcohol. 3 glasses of wine put this dweeb out of commission for three days, I know Europeans who have three Negronis before dinner.

beatles haters are the flat earthers of music.

[Tatum Turn Up @tatumturnup]

This is the greatest video I’ve ever seen. No notes. The lifeless clanker carcass just laying there. No crowd reaction, anything. Just Billie Jean. Until its lifeless shell is shamefully dragged off. Purely amazing.

[Elijah Cone @ElijahCone]

Bluey is OUT and Peppa Pig is IN at my house. As a father, I don’t want to be compared to Bandit (imaginative, ideal millennial dad). I am much more comfortable with the pace being set by Daddy Pig (slob, Brexit-coded chud).

This is such an autism moment. It's beautiful lmao. Tyson just says factually what he feels and the kid is like "Umm...thank you." LMAO 😂😂😂

@hernekejtto Beggars Banquet to Exile is one of the greatest album runs of all time. But you need to appreciate American roots music to fully get the Stones
