@imfleetwoodjack Love this perspective. We think about decisions a long time before making them, and we should celebrate catharsis when we turn thought to action.

@benwikler Iâm close with my grandfather, and we grab lunch every week, but we never talk politics. He asks me if Iâve voted, and I said Iâve been putting it off. Turns out heâs a massive Kamala Harris fan and heâs not been this excited to vote in YEARS. What?.

@HotForMoot When I was at Johns Hopkins, the cardiology association did something similar. They would host balls for their doctors and for new nurses, so the space they rented (like the Baltimore Aquarium) was full of men in their 30s-50s, and women in their 20s. And lots of alcohol.

@uncledoomer The environmental debate is about aura. Solar panels feel clean and autonomous and fusion plants are gray walls with attached officespace. There are people demanding aesthetic from every choice in life for broader goals.

@shauseth We talk about this at home sometimes. It reminds me of 4chan or /r/wallstreetbets where you signal in-group status by self-deprecating w/ specific slurs. When someone calls themselves neurodivergent I figure theyâre just telling me theyâre under 30, left-leaning and online.

@Rafa_Schwinger Itâs a Rorschach for young men: if youâre self-assured, you see a woman succeeding in a field youâve never yearned for, and donât give it a second-thought. If you have a chip on your shoulder, this woman represents a credentialism culture that puts hoes above bros, rewarding.

@antii__dote Get ride of routines that root you to boring experiences. Quit your job and move somewhere. Quit your gym and go to group exercise like a running club or climbing gym or spin class. Find a coffee shop and just go there a lot; the first parasocial influencers were baristas.

@WraithLaFrentz I did so many odd jobs in college, one of them was organizing our student athlete prospects. We were D3 going on D2 and while we sent acceptances to D1-worthy athletes, we only ever schmoozed D2 kids and their parents since it was a waste of resources to chase stars.

@vocalcry Um actually the era of subsistence farming predated the Industrial Revolution by hundreds of years and the mass exodus of serfs and farmhands to urban factories was due to a collapse in demand for agrarian labor due to significant increases in capital and trade . The Syrian civil.

@aaron_renn @RuxandraTeslo @tylercowen This is a GOOD post. I think about these topics a lot, having grown up in a poor, dysfunctional home where my goals were only to a) break that cycle and b) do so convincingly to others. And now what? I broke from a culture that would understand me best. And now what?.

@JoePostingg Billed amount is what a provider asks for. Allowed amount is what an insurer allows a network provider to charge. Paid amount is what an insurer pays the provider. Whenever possible, stiff your provider the difference between allowed and paid because doctors arenât people.

@growing_daniel The only way to genuinely accomplish this is maximize the salience of institution quality with the masses. Have mental institutions have patients out on work trips to be wallmart greeters, school volunteers. If you tuck a marginalized population out of public view, it wonât.

Junk insurance is a term for certain plans that churches or other small orgs get that allow them âmore flexibilityâ about what to cover. I wonder if he even had United tbh. Itâs the biggest insurer, but not for 20 yoâs.
