Wise words
i deleted instagram about 5 years ago, so i had almost forgotten what it feels like to have it in your life
watching people around me use it now feels strange
you end up checking the daily lives of people you haven’t seen in ten years, people you probably wouldn’t even stop to talk to if you crossed them on the street.
random people from your past become permanent background characters in your mind.
then add the fact that a huge part of instagram is effectively a dating product
if you’re already in a long-term relationship, keeping that constant stream of attention, comparison and other people’s lives in your head has destroyed countless couples
after being off it for years, the whole thing looks much more extreme from the outside.
Perfectly said.
Big Short investor Steve Eisman says the AI labs know they have no moats and are manufacturing a crisis to get regulation that hands them a duopoly
"I think this is all nonsense."
[ You think it's all nonsense? ]
"All nonsense. I think that there's something else completely going on here. ... What I think is happening is that token maxing is over. The open weight models are taking big market share. I think these companies are very nervous. They realize that there are no moats around their business whatsoever, and they're trying to manufacture a crisis that will create regulation, and that they think they can then manipulate to create the moats, to create the duopoly that they want."
[ Wow. ]
"That's what I think is going on."
"Honestly, I think this whole Terminator thing is garbage. That's for sure."

we live in casino culture
>get rich quick
>optimize for minimal effort
>treat everything as a jackpot
culture that keeps ambitious people in a loop of chasing the wrong things. focusing on what will get them nowhere. thinking they are always one action away from the big win

I ask you,
Though you may have every success,
And all of life's material comforts,
Do you have Mental Peace.
Does the Mind lie down for you upon demand.
Do you feel Free from the turmoils, while standing within them.
Is your life your very own.
This is the Ultimate wealth.

Seriousness
Is Everything.
It is all
Seriousness.
Without Seriousness
There is nothing.
It may take years to Realize this.
It may take Lifetimes to Achieve this.
All that is with pursued
Without Seriousness
Is pursued in vain.
Wisdom is not smart thinking
Wisdom is not in depth mental reasoning
Wisdom is knowing where true knowledge comes from
The heart - the universe
This is a fundamental misunderstanding of basic economics.
Rents in WA went up WAY more than 30% during a time when wages barely moved.
Only in my most absolute broken state did I come to see the truth of how few people on earth are serious about freedom from the mind, the truth, or being serious.
Because I came to finally see just how unserious I had been.
Sincerity and purity will be my true friends.
Wisdom will be my lover.
Freedom will be my mantra.
Peace will be my essence.
Equanimity will be my wind.
The moment will be my home.

Art
Is Sacred.
The Artist
Must create
Within the Sacred.
And once he steps out of the Sacred,
He realizes
That the only place to Live
Is within the Sacred.
His Creations
And his Life
Merge into one.
This is so aptly put.
My life under the spell of the mind has been nothing short of hellish.
There is no future worth living apart from transcending this beast.

To find perfection in one’s craft.
In one’s art.
Without an ounce of competitive intent.
To have the art become one’s vehicle to Freedom.
What a life this is.
