I keep coming back to this line from The Psychology of Money:
"The ability to do what you want, when you want, with who you want, for as long as you want, is priceless. It is the highest dividend money pays."

tomorrow is the last ever Pythagorean theorem day that we will ever get to experience. There’s only ever been 12 of them ever in our lifetime. And they will never be one ever again. How fun!🙂
Interhouse is live!

Dr. Erica Komisar drops a stark warning every parent needs to hear about screens and kids:
“No technology under age 2 — for good reason. After that, regulate it heavily.”
She explains why:
Screens spike dopamine in developing brains 10 times more than in adults — like giving a teen the equivalent of 10 joints from a single exposure. The prefrontal cortex (emotion regulation) isn't fully developed until ~25, so kids get hooked fast.
Social media in particular exploits adolescent girls' natural hyper-vigilance: perfectionism, comparison, fear of not measuring up → chronic stress response in the amygdala.
Boys aren't immune either — both sexes get trapped in a virtual reality of self-consciousness, isolation, and addiction.
“They get stuck in this paradigm… in a way, trapped in a fantasy.”
This clip may be a year old, but the science on dopamine sensitivity, prefrontal development, and screen addiction in kids hasn't changed — it's only gotten more relevant.
Parents: Are you enforcing hard screen limits with your kids — or has it already slipped?

slice and freeze, it actually holds for months even. however when you want to fry, do not defrost else it will become soggy. just toss the frozen slices into hot oil and it comes out perfect. also works with yam and potatoes btw and for ndi fitness, works in an airfryer

The ultrasound bit is what gets me — a whole soundscape humans can't perceive but cats navigate around daily. Makes you wonder how much of our own environment we're just... tuned out of.

A billionaire sat in a room for 42 minutes and listed every psychological trick that makes people lose money. for free. the finance industry has spent thirty years pretending this recording does not exist.
he didn't sell a course. he didn't write a newsletter. he sat in a chair at 96 years old and explained why brilliant people do the dumbest things with their money. then he explained why they will keep doing it.
MBA programs charge $200,000 to teach behavioral finance. he covered 25 biases in one sitting. some of them are still not in any curriculum. he gave the entire framework away on camera.
the part nobody talks about: he called crypto antisocial. he said index funds will crush most managers. he said private equity is full of wretched excess. he said all of this in a room full of people who manage money for a living. nobody argued.
a hedge fund analyst at a top firm told me this is the first thing they send to anyone who joins the desk. not a book. not a model. a 42-minute video of a 96-year-old man explaining why you will be wrong and how to recognize it before it costs you everything.
40 million people have heard his name. almost none of them have watched him explain the 25 ways their own brain is working against them.
the lecture is free. he died the following year. it is in the video.
