A very good desire.

The task of philosophy.

I’m very sensitive to icons, symbols, and text. I want fewer distractions in my life.

The Ancient Greek heroes didn’t care for tools or toys— only their weapons, shield, and armor.

Al fresco dining, al fresco lifestyle.

Disdain being indoors. Always prefer outside to eat, socialize, do anything, live, workout, etc.

Also thinking and philosophizing — trust no thought which enters your mind when you’re indoors.

I also prefer viewing, reviewing my photos outdoors in the open air on my iPad instead of being stuck indoors.

Both as a great spice to life.

When you’re sick you have no appetite.

One thought I had — how can I eat *more* meat? 10 pounds a day, in a single sitting?

For modern books, short books are best.

We all want to feel manly.

Modern day masculinity is soft and flabby. Towards the hard Spartan way.

Anti convention, anti conventional. Ego above all.

Extreme short shorts, ideally topless and no shirt.

Don’t buy a new camera or lens, but a (very heavy) kettlebell instead.

Great for hip mobility, squatting ass to grass, turbo thighs, and vitality!

Unless you do a food eating challenge and gotta pay for the ($150+ meal) if you fail!

I want to own things or buy things that will last or entertain me for at least a decade+

In praise of risky supervised play.

I love to cook it, eat it, slice it (preparing it), and think about it:

I enjoy the meat lifestyle

Also the zen philosophy — meat has all your ”essential” nutrition. No supplements required.

Also note — nobody is allergic to meat nor has a severe intolerance to it (compare this with cashew, peanut, legume allergies).

Diet Vegans

I think most people pick up veganism to lose fat. The whole ”I’m doing it for the planet” seems like a ruse.

Just like how I don’t trust people with an @aol.com email address, I don’t trust people on Instagram.

The only difference is how (the means) in which people feel supreme to others.

What Bitcoin is to me.

It takes more courage to delete something than to hoard something.

To build maximum strength:

The power is in your hips!

SEIZE THE PHOTO!

Avoid and be wary of people with too many “feelings”. A sign of sickness.

If you’re healthy, keep away from the sick. Use a face mask. Don’t interact with sick people — whether literal or metaphorical.

If you desire to wage war, you must be on the front lines. If you want ”gun rights”, consider — how do you feel about exposing your own personal children to gunmen?

Health as the ultimate.

My ideal evening routine:

Seek 1000x more effectiveness.

To resist from pettiness — our first stoic rule.
