Month: September 2023

Now that I live in LA, now that I’m living in LA, I’m becoming really obsessed with the Prius. It is truly the best car.

Funny how they call “motion pictures”.

Honestly, there is no such thing as objectively good, bad, better or worse photos. However, I think what we are all striving is towards photographic excellence. For us to make photos in which we consider excellent in our eyes.

But what makes an excellent photo or not? Honestly, I think it has to deal with you just looking at your own photos and getting a sense or a vibe for them. For myself, it involves capturing some sort of personally meaningful photos and also

When you’re making photos, strive to make them as artistic as possible.

A simple thought; when you’re shooting photos, just keep your phone at home, or keep it locked in the glove compartment. Then when you’re out shooting, being 100% focused on the act of photography.

Simple, aimpkciity

Incoming!

Often we are indoctrinated with the idea that one must be prompt, do things immediately, etc. However, I believe there is great wisdom in delaying as long as humanly possible!

For example, it is considered good and virtuous to just let your kid play at the park all day. I also know that Seneca loves it!

I wonder if adults shouldn’t be treated any differently? That adults, should also enjoy playing at the park all day?

Instead, just think the 10, 20, 30 year time span, and then timing doesn’t matter as much.

Time to re-up your Bitcoin baby!

My thought: hundred percent carnivore diet. Seneca is two years, eight months old, and he loves “kibbeh”, which is essentially super mini burger patties made out of ground beef, 100% grass fed. Easy to cook on the frying pan or even in an air fryer! The secret is make them really really small.

Funny enough, he even enjoys eating it cold!

I think this is the secret of him growing up and becoming so big and strong!

Also a new pro tip; in the early days, feed them bone marrow! This is essentially what demigod like Achilles was fed. Also, for milk, I believe goats milk to be the best. I read this from an ancient Roman book on animal husbandry!

Their style is all the same same?

So boring — all the same tropes:

1. Mustache and or facial hair
2. Hat, trucker hat, some sort of baseball cap?
3. Tattoos

Even the beauty of a water faucet as sculpture!

Advice and wisdom from Mike Tatum my landlord, in praise of Kohler:

I’m more interested in power, power test?

Once you got infinite power, then what?

What is a millennial? An individual with low self-esteem, insecure.

I think the best strategy is to allow yourself to be and become a little bit more unethical, less concerned and concerning of external things peoples desires expectations etc.

Overall, I think it is a good idea to have like goals dreams hopes and aspirations etc. I like the idea of having an insanely audacious life, and once you achieve it and hit it, then, perhaps the best strategy is this:

Onto the next one!

Your next epic life goal dream hope aspiration etc?

I’m back in LA baby!

I no longer count pounds, only plates:

Standard mode:

Why? When things are incomplete, there are still new possibilities and opportunities!

How to plan your life around the latency, away from latency and lag? Lag is also thinking of computers devices and also when you’re trying to do work with interment Wi-Fi or slowness in the system, and also… Planning your life around traffic and other sorts of commuting?

I’m in LA trick! LA THINKING.

Super funny, after going to Aldi‘s random gyms, even when I was in Providence Rhode Island, going to the local LA fitness, during in post pandemic, I never once thought of or dreamed of the day in which I would be back in LA, actually in LA, in Culver City, Working out at an LA fitness. How hilarious and ironic at the same time

It seems in life, having maximum optionality is best. For example, simple month-to-month contracts, or worst a yearly contract. Better than being looped into some thing that you will have to stick with, God forbid, 30+ years.

How to achieve your life goals:

Perhaps this is my new life direction, to help others achieve and conceive of their own personal life goals?

I think the reason why I love the gym, gym life is because it is high stimulation, high activity, high energy. High hype!

Most people have no idea, and wouldn’t even guess that I played football, American football in high school, and I played linebacker, first outside linebacker my sophomore year, then inside linebacker my junior year.

Man would not desire the world without women, but if there were no men… Women would probably be fine?

What do men want, versus what do women want?

Theory: it is the new modern day form of virtuosity to be “mobile“? Or “flexible”?

I only like to stretch and do mobility exercises because it feels good?
