Your mind is mordibly obese (too much scrolling). Full of garbage you get served up on your for you page. You can't think for yourself, Stuck in life cause you're weighed down by 10,000 things that don't matter to your current circumstances.
Short form feeds are mental corn syrup. Created to taste important (brain thinks necessary for survival) but completely EMPTY of any nutrient value (made to get you addicted). Every video is just another plate of slop fed to you while you think you're "relaxing". Just like an obese chud that eats 30 donuts to get "full"
Your brain evolved in info scarcity for 200,000 years. Every new thing you encountered could save your life or kill you. Your brain is HARDWIRED for seeking what is "new" even if it is useless.
Now every night you lay in bed with a black mirror that feeds you an infinite amount of new info from every domain of the human experience. Ritualistically scrolling until you can't even open your eyes. Unconscious worship.
The black mirror has been engineered to exploit that SAME evolutionary wiring. You're consuming 500x the information your entire ancestral LINEAGE has seen over hundreds of generations and have been psyopped to think it's fine + normal "it's just my phone".
The thing which was designed by a team of geniuses (who understand your wiring better than you). Put the most POWERFUL attention extraction device in human history in your pocket.
And just like an obese person who feels like they're going to have a heart attack walking up stairs, you feel like your mind is going to explode if you sit still for 3 minutes (It won't - it's just the withdrawal stage).
You've probably forgotten what it's like to be bored and let it pass. What happened when you were a kid and you were bored? Imagination on 9000RPM, engine ROARING, Curiously in awe about worms and ants, creativity BEAMING, you could entertain yourself with a stick and a rock for hours.
Your ability to create is being stolen from you in real time and it's one of the only things that separate a human from an animal.
If you have 6 hour screen time everyday, Imagine what would happen if you put just HALF of that time into something you genuinely found meaningful. You'd make quantum leaps in that area of your life.
Choose your life, don't let an algorithm choose for you

Neden bazı insanlar zorluklar karşısında daha dirençli ve başarılıdır?
Rotter'ın klasik çalışması cevabı veriyor: çünkü onlar "içsel kontrol odağına" sahipler.
Yani, hayatlarının kendi eylemleriyle şekillendiğine inanıyorlar. Bu inanç, onları daha dirençli, öğrenmeye açık, aktif ve güçlü kılıyor.
Gran parte de los niños actuales pasan menos tiempo al aire libre que los presos de las cárceles.
(Es una de las causas del aumento de enfermedades mentales y metabólicas. Implica déficit de movimiento, déficit de sol, déficit de juego libre, exceso de supervisión adulta, etc.)
"The Greeks were neither optimists nor pessimists. They were manly: they saw the terrible as it is and did not conceal it from themselves."

Only low agency people need to “lock in”
Can't take action without checking off a list of fake requirements
Perfect night of sleep. Coffee routine. Music always on. That one event that will "change everything"
"Once this happens I can finally do it"
None of this has anything to do with execution. Just window dressing
Strip away all the stimuli & most people stop moving
But none of it matters. The mind uses these fake conditions to shield you from the friction
All of your powerlessness is self imposed
You have no agency until you've broken external dependency. Rejected all rituals & catalysts
There is no prerequisite for action
I'm Boris and I created Claude Code. Lots of people have asked how I use Claude Code, so I wanted to show off my setup a bit.
My setup might be surprisingly vanilla! Claude Code works great out of the box, so I personally don't customize it much. There is no one correct way to use Claude Code: we intentionally build it in a way that you can use it, customize it, and hack it however you like. Each person on the Claude Code team uses it very differently.
So, here goes.
