Morgan Housel on Finance “Finance is overwhelmingly taught as a math-based field, where you put data into a formula and the formula tells you what to do, and it’s assumed that you’ll just go do it.” Morgan Housel on How Collective Trial and Error Hasn’t Improved Personal Finance “Through collective trial and error over the…

This is one of the best books I’ve read in a long time, and certainly the best on economics. I thought Morgan Housel’s book was good, but this one went so much deeper and more in depth about the real problems facing our world. And I agree with about 95 percent of what she says,…

I became intimately familiar with Whitney Hanson’s poetry recently, thanks to an Instagram reel I was shown by the Algorithm. I IMMEDIATELY pre-ordered her newest poetry book “the love of my life” and it arrived on the evening of its release day, July 7th, 2026. It showed up while I was taking a much needed…

June 1, 2026 Ant Ortiz did a rule 5 draft only rebuild. And the problem with these rebuilds is your team has all 0 overall players. Meaning one team will inevitably be farming you for ridiculous statistics. Because his team is the Rockies, the Dodgers ate his team for breakfast and Shohei broke basically every…

BTW I met this girl at a free show at Big Bar in Erie, PA around St. Patty’s day last year. I have one of those hoodies she’s got there. She handed it to me. Best night of my life. … “We’re numb to our own knowledge.” It’s lines like that which make Anna Corinne…

I am wide awake, YES, Like Katy Perry. So I may as well get up and be productive at getting my geese in a row. … Gorgeous girl and I am sure her story is far too common with a much less desirable ending. … The universe told me to listen to album 1, track…

On this day June 28, 2026, around midnight, I finally broke the many-layered mask I wore over my true personality for over thirty years. It took a lot of hard work over the past three weeks, but I finally have become the Phoenix I was intended to be. I’ve rediscovered my true voice. I am…

This poem by Sav Brown is absolute fire: how i make you feel is who i am – savannah brown … Preach, Anthony, preach! Seriously, this interview confused me in many places at the time it came out. And I have nothing against sombr (neither does Anthony) but what Taylor is saying is utter bullshit.…

… Emily asked me to share this, so I did. Really important topic, actually: Being a Queer Girl Isn’t Something You Decide. AI needs to stay out of ripping off music! And music adjacent. And just content in general. We are all just training shit… Anthony Fantano, I totally agree with you. … Sav has…

I agree with Chris Sewell. I think the emphasis on high end rookies isn’t nearly as important anymore. It’s just that it’s high end and super rare. Doesn’t matter the year, just the player, the “goat” trend people are seeing seems real. … A new Summoning Salt video! The rush to beating all the 0…

Why do I write? Elie Wiesel asked that question once. His answer was that he wrote to free himself somewhat of his nightmares. I have no excuse for such nightmares, but a much more subtle ‘night’ surrounds me, everything is so dark, details obscured; it feels safe, yes, but I am never quite enlightened enough…

We live in a world where a stolen credit card number can wreck your day by grinding everything to a halt. The worst part is that it’s often not clear how certain key information is leaked and even if the cause eventually is discovered it’s far too long after the fact to trace its original…

Savannah Brown just blows my mind. I also ordered five of Savannah’s books. A couple were only sold from London so I’d rather buy those brand new. If her books are as amazing as her video essays, then damn. I’m having such a horrible autism day. But I can pay attention to Livie and Fionn…
