Tim Urban When I first became agnostic I was almost anti-religion. Thought religious people were wasting precious time trapped in a delusion. But now, I see no problem with it if they aren’t pushing their beliefs and it helps them cope with death, etc. I’m kinda jealous actually

Johnny Brown Just saw that you are a Legion athlete. Makes sense! I was thinking this thread was a great compilation of the best ideas from Bigger Leaner Stronger, Huberman Lab, and direct learned experience

Max Maybe because there is overlap in these problems? (fixing society vs fixing the self) E.g.: observing how smartphones negatively impact on a societal level helps me understand how mine impacts me on a personal level + how I can fix my own use

Jash Dholani “But I don't want comfort. I want God, I want poetry, I want real danger, I want freedom, I want goodness. I want sin.” - Aldous Huxley, Brave New World

It’s insane how beautiful life can be

speak for yourself.

Don’t stop talking about Luigi Mangione. He’s entitled to a fair trial and the presumption of innocence.

A che servono i nemici se hai Fabrizio Corona come amico?
