When I saw this Lego set announced I was not aware of this spaceship. Did some quick research. I'm now 4 hours into the audiobook. Not sure when I'm supposed to sleep. 🤔🤷‍♂️

For anyone keeping track: It took gold over 5,600 years to hit $1,000/oz for the first time, in 2008, amid the worst financial crisis in US history. Meanwhile, gold prices just rose +$1,000/oz in 28 days. But don't worry, fiat currencies are completely fine.

Underrated social skill: Letting people save face when they realize they're wrong. Don't rub it in. Don't make them grovel. Give them an exit ramp. Graciousness in victory earns more respect than being right ever will.

Acoustic guitars used to just be called ‘guitars.’ Then, we invented electric guitars. Oh no. Which meant saying ‘guitar’ wasn’t clear enough. So 'guitars' became 'acoustic guitars.' ‘Acoustic guitar’ is an example of a ‘retronym.’ 🧵⬇️

I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance. Luke 15:7

The entire Book of Revelation is a giant chiasm. 🤯 A chiasm is a literary device where ideas unfold in order (A B C) and then repeat in reverse (C B A), forming an X shaped symmetry that aids memory and draws attention to the central point (C). The Bible is amazing.

If you’re struggling right now in any way, skip the life hacks for a minute. Go to church this Sunday. Even if you don’t normally go. Even if you’re “spiritual not religious.” Even if you have PTSD from the religious boredom of church as a kid. Just go sit in the back row and

An underrated law? Kidlin's Law. That if you write down a problem clearly and specifically, you have already solved half of it. The act of clearly & specifically describing a problem on paper creates a deeper understanding of its components & makes it easier to find solutions.

Many people don’t know that when the Bible says Jesus was laid in a manger, the Greek word for manger is “phatnē” which refers to a feeding trough, and many in Bethlehem were made of stone. Here’s what’s powerful: Shepherds in the Bethlehem region were known for raising

Windows 11. I initially had to Quit Claude because I changed my MCP list in desktop config. It crashed on open. Trust me, it wasn't a bad config file. 2 hours of troubleshooting later: Claude is not closing all 'Claude.exe' processes.

An alcoholic friend of Philip Yancey once said to him: “When I'm late to church, people turn around and stare at me with frowns of disapproval. I get the clear message that I'm not as responsible as they are. When I'm late to AA, the meeting comes to a halt and everyone jumps

I've been reading Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis, and I just came across a paragraph that hit me harder than I expected.

Hahaha who's the subagent now @claudeai 😉 About to set this up so it's easier for me to keep track of, and tick off, all the tasks Claude gives me.

X's Handle Marketplace for Premium+ subscribers is not what I expected. You must remain a Premium+ subscriber to retain any assigned handle. I searched for a handle that has no posts since 2011 and has one follower, (me). X said 'no'; it was active or otherwise unavailable.
