being an eldest daughter is whatever you make it. for example, my little sister pays for everything and is the planner. release yourself from these fictional ties that bind you…. become the deadbeat eldest sister u dream of

No, you idiots, it's that children are an economic benefit to you when you're a pre-industrial farmer and they're an economic liability to you when you live in a city and send emails for a living.

The Chinese say that if you haven't memorized large chunks of texts, then you simply don't have enough "ink in your stomach," which means you can't write - you don't know enough to use allusions, to play with intertextuality, to be in dialogue w existing lit.

“They have no curiosity about the world. Just eat, sleep, phone.” I’m hearing this from every teacher I know. The scariest thing about AI is that it’s creating a generation of students with no interests, no hobbies, who are totally dependent on tech. What’s to be done?

No one wants to hear this but you will find more wisdom in an old fairy-tale, a monologue from Shakespeare, a chapter of Jane Austen, than in all the self-help books in Barnes & Noble. You don't need more lifemaxxing, you need myth, poetry, beauty.

Carl Sagan said when he was at university in the 1950s, “it was considered unthinkable for an aspiring physicist not to know Plato, Aristotle, Bach, Shakespeare,” and so many of our problems with today’s tech leaders are downstream of their lack of engagement with the humanities.
