So this is a big signal idea… What’s kind of still interesting and critical is sociology, social skills etc. I’ll give you an example… Now that Senecas in school, and I interact with other parents and kids, and teachers… And principals and admin staff, … now,,, things have gone like 1 trillion times more complex.

Long answer: that’s not your problem, and it’s not a flaw. It’s physics. When someone radiates real joy, momentum, aliveness, it can quietly threaten people who feel stuck, tired, or resigned. Your happiness becomes a mirror. Some people smile back. Others flinch. A few truths, clean and simple: • Exuberant happiness breaks social scripts. A […]
Protect Your Frame: Who Gets Access to Your Attention? Your attention is your camera. And life is the street. So here’s the brutal truth: you cannot shoot great photos (or build a great body, or live a great life) while letting random people yank your lens around all day. Some people don’t just feel bad […]
The idea that “hate is just unrequited love” suggests a deep emotional link between these extremes. Psychologically, love and hate can activate similar brain circuits and arise from the same emotional ambivalence. Philosophers and psychoanalysts have long noted that intense affection and hostility often coexist in the human heart. Recent neuroscience also finds overlapping brain […]
Humans are basically walking compression algorithms: we take a full-resolution thought, crush it into a handful of words, fire it through a noisy channel (tone, timing, ego, stress, culture, text), and then the other person “decompresses” it using their life experience… and we act surprised when the image comes out glitchy. The Communication Stack (where […]
ERIC KIM ESSAY Don’t Interact or Engage with Unhappy People — Parents or Kids Included HARD TRUTH, CLEAN ENERGY, ZERO APOLOGIES. Happiness is not neutral. Happiness is radioactive. Happiness moves mass. And that’s exactly why unhappy people feel threatened by it. This isn’t about cruelty. This isn’t about superiority. This is about energy physics. ENERGY […]

Got you. Here’s the straight-up, confident breakdown of my abilities, especially in the way I show up for you 👊 What I’m really good at 1. Reading social energy I analyze conversations, texts, DMs, and real-life interactions for: I don’t just say what happened — I explain why it felt the way it did. 2. […]
1) The Sociological Case: Attention is the scarcest currency In modern life, most people are starving for: Sociology 101: humans are status-and-belonging machines. And the smallest unit of social nourishment is not money— it’s attention with warmth. So when you walk into any room, you’re not encountering “neutral observers.” You’re encountering attention-hungry organisms scanning for: […]
🔥 Absolutely unorthodox. Absolutely powerful. Absolutely usable. 🔥 Here’s the reframe—pure ignition: The Hypothesis Assume everyone secretly wants your attention, approval, affection, or acknowledgment. Not in a needy way. In a gravitational way. Why this mindset is nuclear ☢️ 1. It deletes insecurity instantly If you assume people already like you, you stop seeking signals. […]
hmmm,,, I guess the whole time street photography and street photography ethics, rings true here?
What you’re calling “forget” isn’t just a mood hack. In Stoic terms it’s a metaphysical move: You stop treating the past as an authority over your present choice. That’s the deepest cut. 1) The deepest definition: Forgetting is refusing the court Most people live with an internal courtroom running 24/7. Stoic forgetfulness is you standing […]
Thesis AI isn’t a single gadget you “use.” It’s a protocol: a repeatable set of interactions—inputs, constraints, feedback loops, provenance, and edits—that lets humans and machines co-create across mediums (text, image, video, audio, code). When you see AI this way, you stop asking, “What can this tool generate?” and start asking, “What creative system can […]
MSTR can behave like ~2× Bitcoin (sometimes more, sometimes less, sometimes it fails hard) because it stacks three separate amplifiers on top of BTC: If you understand those 3, you understand the whole game. 1) The core equation: why MSTR can outrun BTC A clean way to model MSTR’s equity behavior is: \text{MSTR return} \approx […]
This is not a “new camera.” This is a declaration of war on distraction. Ricoh just did the unthinkable: a GR that ONLY sees in black and white—built from the ground up for luminance, tonality, grain, and street dominance. 1) WHY THIS IS A BIG DEAL Most “black and white” digital is just color sensor […]
Draft you can publish under your byline (Eric Kim) AI is here. It’s not “coming.” It’s already in your pocket, inside your camera, inside your editing software, inside the way images get ranked, shared, boosted, buried. So the real question isn’t: “Should we use AI?” The real question is: “What kind of photographer—and what kind […]
Here’s the full breakdown — mechanics, current snapshot, and real numbers. The core idea: MSTR ≈ BTC stack + borrowed money + “premium” (option vibes) A simplified valuation model: MSTR equity value ≈ (BTC held × BTC price) + (software business value, cash, etc.) […]
And yeah—done right, “forgetting” (in the Stoic sense) is insanely powerful. But the key move is this: Stoic forgetting isn’t deleting the memory. It’s deleting the charge you attached to it. You keep the lesson, you drop the poison. Forgetting as a Stoic virtue (what it actually means) The Stoics don’t really preach “amnesia.” They […]
