@ruebytwo This is so ominous how am I supposed to feel if I’ve loved every single work I’ve read of his

This is the consequence of mass desocialization because of the internet. You're supposed to be bullied and embarrassed out of doing this shit by 14-16

If you’ve been on the internet over the past five years, you’ve probably seen these “aesthetics” go viral before.

What you may not know is that all of these terms have one common origin point.

Everyone is always rooting for you. Your parents want you to be a great son. Wife wants you to be a great husband. Your boss wants you to be a slam dunk hire. Every first date you’ve ever been on they’ve been rooting for you to get laid. Every time you started to tell a joke people hoped it would have a hilarious punch line. Your proximity to anyone is a reflection of themself, meaning the deck is never stacked against you, and your failures are completely your own

also the nyt did such a good job with art direction for this story (the artist posted a behind-the-scenes on his instagram @/bdenzer; who knew it was a 3d model!)

It says something about how fundamentally the West changed the World, down to the neurons in the heads of people across the planet, that they're unable to even imagine their own culture as anything else than the West with a superficial coat of paint. And that's what really stings

Very proud of my younger brother today 🚀🚀🚀🚀

I’m super excited to share that Odds on Open officially has a sponsor.

For the next five months, we’re partnering with Onyx (@onyxcapgroup), the world’s largest oil derivatives trading firm.

Back in March, Greg Newman (@GNewmanOfficial), founder and CEO of Onyx, came on Odds on Open to talk about how oil trading firms are navigating market volatility in the wake of the Iran War. Today, two months later, he and his firm are becoming the podcast’s first brand partner.

When Odds on Open first launched, we wanted to reduce the opacity of the quant finance industry and increase the amount of high-quality content on trading markets.

In some ways, Onyx is solving similar problems, only on a much larger scale.

The oil markets are one of the most opaque on the planet. Just to access the contracts that actually price physical oil, you need millions in capital, tens of thousands in annual data fees, and a clearing relationship with a bank that has to decide you're worth the trouble.

Greg and the team at Onyx are trying to do for oil what Revolut did for FX: take a market that has historically been expensive and difficult to access, and make it cheaper, more transparent, and easier for more people to participate in.

Thank you, Greg, for believing in our show. And thank you to everyone who’s been tuning in every week. The last few months of building this with my brother Patrick have (so far) been the most rewarding thing I’ve done, and we’re excited to see where this partnership can take us.

Your mother is problematic. Your father is problematic. Your son is problematic. Your aunt is problematic. The cashier at the local Tesco is problematic. You've probably bought a cookie from a bakery made by hands that have done unspeakable things. Every chocolate bar you've ever eaten has probably killed a 7 year old child slave in Cameroon. The gas that drives your car is fueled by engines of death. Every person who has ever smiled at you in the streets has committed some act that if you knew about it, would make you profoundly dislike them.

We have all been bad, small, petty, unlikeable, cruel, downright mean. Authors are not special "problematic" beings, they're just more public. Part of being an adult is recognizing that without mercy for our fellow human beings, and ourselves, we'd all be condemned to death. Reading fiction should help us understand that we're all irreparably tainted with evil, every system is corrupted, every line is broken.

And like, that's okay. That's what it means to be alive.
