Month: March 2023

It is so funny in America, we say “everyone is different” and we should “celebrate diversity”, yet in application … we expect everyone to follow the same social norms.

I say instead go socially aberrant, go unorthodox.

Obvious decisions should be obvious.

A spartan photographer? RICOH GR IIIX.

Eat later. Keep fasting, until late — eat right before immediately you plan on sleeping. Thus no food coma during the day.

More photography. RICOH GR III/X. Extra small JPEG. As much as I want to like the iPhone, I just don’t.

More vlogs via GoPro.

Or uninterrupted or foiled.

Rather than accumulate.

Hit the 8 plates and 35 the other day for atlas lift (ERIC KIM LIFT), and have a funny conundrum:

I am about to max out the bar.

The issue is that given the limited space on the other side of the bar, it seems I can only jump in weight from a single 35 plate to a 45 pound plate. So given I hit the 9 plates for my atlas lift (I am certain I can do)— then what? Find a new gym?

Perhaps towards an interesting life philosophy—

The worst thing is when you got nothing higher to challenge yourself towards.

Morale of the story:

We must always have a more monster of a challenge to aspire towards and BEYOND!

How to promote your thinking?

Not “changing” your mind, but ADVANCING your mind.

All wheel drive, manual transmission— maybe a Subaru WRX?

The most capable camera?

Power as influence, ability to do something or make something happen?

Don’t think where you will be *happier*, but where you can become more POWERFUL.

Still the Tesla Model S Plaid.

Unless there is a car which can accelerate from 0-60 in LESS THAN 1.99 seconds, Tesla Model S Plaid is still the goat.

Ultra Red. Red as the most powerful and strong color.

The more powerful you are, the more beautiful you are? Power is ability.

The stronger you are, the more beautiful you are?

Thus perhaps it isn’t “beauty” we are searching for, but strength?

Strength is beauty?

First of all, beauty is a marker of health. The more beautiful the woman or man, it means the healthier they are, and the more fit they are in terms of children.

Secondly, beauty is a positive motivator and stimulus. In someways, being in a beautiful environment stimulates us to live and move.

White? White skinny jeans, white iPhone, symbol of purity and beauty. White car — Lamborghini Countach in white.

Moneta— the last name of Juno, where the temple where money was minted. Juno Moneta

Become your own bank?

Media with movement.

First of all, just leaving the house, irregardless of the weather outside. The upside of goretex clothing, down, Gore-Tex jackets, powerful outdoor clothing.

Keep searching, thinking. Innovating, attempting new.

Lift more, fast more.

Also, don’t force yourself to eat more, or eat ad nauseum (until you hate yourself or feel nauseous). Don’t force yourself to “over eat”.

Perhaps best to just treat your iPhone like a phone (for FaceTime and the such), and a camera as its own thing?

Not the “best” or “most powerful”, or the “fastest”, but the most beautiful car.

Ricoh GR IIIX. Pentax 645Z.

Beauty is paramount.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen an iPhone photo (Pro or not) which from an aesthetics perspective I found “beautiful”.

The technology is cool, the concept is cool, you can still make good and really good photos with it… but beautiful? Perhaps not.

It doesn’t matter where you are, as long as you have the power of the internet, you can do anything, become anything. Make anything.

Striving towards more happiness as a misled path. For more power — whether metaphorical, literal, physiological, influence is good.

My thought is that the gym should be life training, not the other way around
