I like that Mickey made a distinction between TECHNICAL proficiency & ARTISTIC mastery. To me he basically said you need to build a framework & just because rhyming is required that alone doesn’t determine greatness. Learning to dribble is a foundational skill in basketball but we not out here...

Watch this game-changing dissertation on "expert writing." Expert writers write to "think" about the world. 99% of experts write and think at the same time. They use the writing process to help themselves think. This is how they do their best thinking. Write to think about the world. Do this because you care, because you want to be part of progress, because you want to make a dent in the universe. Write to inspire and influence. And when you are finished writing, and you click publish, think about your work this way... the intent of your text is to cause readers to change the way they think about the world. Engagement metrics don't really matter in comparison. Whether or not your text is valuable, depends on whether or not your readers perceive that you have valuably changed what they think, or what they do, or how they decide. One of the reasons it's so hard for smart people to write well is because they don't write to change the way people think about the world. They write to complete a project, to earn a grade, to be assessed. Or they write to publish *their* thoughts without going through a mental and soulful exercise of writing to think about the world, without writing to change how people think about the world. Write to think about the world. Change how people think about the world. In an era of #GenerativeAI, content isn't the end game. Your goal isn't just to get someone's attention, generate reactions, or show up in search. Your mission is to change how people think about the world. Change How People Think About the World. Thank you, Larry McEnerney (now-retired former Director of the University of Chicago's Writing Program).

Brickzilla says he once filmed a massive group scene where he had the biggest d!ck there… and apparently that was exactly why he couldn’t participate like everyone else: “I got an award for that.” “Listen, I had the biggest d!ck there.” “So everybody but basically me.” “No, that shit too big.” “How do you know when to switch from one person to the other?” “It just got to flow.” “It’s not like a ringer or a bell or something.” “Everybody just gets in this flow.” “It’s like nothing but professionals there.” “I had to keep going back to the girl that I know is going to...” “How long was that scene?” “I think that took about almost all day.” “About four or five hours to shoot.” “What girl on that set did you want to get a piece of but you couldn’t get it?” “It was this little slim Asian one I was trying to pounce out.” “She wouldn’t let me pounce that.” “Basically said that ain’t happening.” “I do any scene they put. I’m a performer.”

Jake truly ate here, we’ve been seeing livies or other delusional people keep attacking Taylor for writing some fun, silly and catchy lyrics and totally ignoring what it really is. If you don’t have the time to watch the full video, here are few most important parts of it: “Whenever people are foolish enough to try to come for Taylor Swift's songwriting, probably the most ridiculous thing you can try to attack when it comes to Taylor Swift. It always makes me laugh. […] Almost all excellent songwriters are kind of one or the other. They are like a serious, artistic songwriter who is known for their lyricism or they are excellent at crafting hit pop songs. Taylor Swift can effortlessly, effortlessly do both of these things. […] Like she is Carole King, but she is also Madonna. […] Mind you, she's also writing the melodies here, so that's a whole other skill that we're not even talking about. […] I don't think that any artist throughout history has ever been able to straddle this line so impeccably. Usually, you are seen as a great creator of songs, like someone who is amazing at writing hits and things that are catchy and universal, or you are seen as someone who is a "quote-unquote" serious songwriter. Taylor Swift is both. When you try to make fun of Taylor Swift for her incredible pop music, you are actually just complimenting her and acknowledging that she is able to do something that almost no other artist can actually do. She actually can do both.”

coming from an experienced artist, i think this is the most genuine and meaningful compliment one could ever give to yuta. thank you jaejoong 🙏🏻 love their friendship 🥹 JJ: the reason why is, i think just doing what you’re told to and just going with the flow, its like theres no sense of preparing for the future in that. but when idols start thinking about their future & their music, and when they're at a point where they start to think on how they can grow, i think that is really admirable. for example, a friend named yuta from nct, he's been doing some solo activities in rock music. i heard that he will be on tour this year too. 👤: you really keep up with the junior artists who are doing rock music arent you? JJ: it's nice. it makes me feel really excited & happy, and like i wanna go & watch their perfomance/ concert too!! so when i see things like that, i think these kinds of attempts which is not just about the rock genre, or about the music that will sell well and get many streams, but just the fact that artists are willing to attempt on a challenge, even when they know there might be risks. this kind of mindset alone is something that i'm really thankful for. it makes me think that the work/ things i do, and even for the junior artists who are starting to try out, i just want to say to them that "we did well' and applause them for it 👏🏻 "

🚨🇺🇸🇻🇪 EX-SEAL SLAMS JOURNALIST FOR NAMING COMMANDER: “JUST BECAUSE YOU CAN SAY IT, DOESN’T MEAN YOU SHOULD” Robert O’Neill weighs in after a journalist allegedly leaked the name of a military commander involved the op to takedown Maduro, but he’s not calling for censorship… just common sense. “I saw the news about the journalist, I think they leaked the name of one of the commanders? But still, his defense is like, ‘Well, it’s public.’ But like we’re saying about free speech, yeah you can, but should you? I don't think journalists should get in trouble, yes they want to be first, but need to ask, ‘what are the effects of what I’m doing.’ To dox someone like that I think is very wrong. You don’t need to point terrorists in that direction.” Robert J. O'Neill

I asked Sam Altman: “Will AI kill writing?” He said: “I don’t see any evidence whatsoever that AI seems to be killing writing. Let’s say we have a system that can write better than a human. Do you think the most popular novel of 2027 has a human name on it or not? When I finish a great book, the first thing I go do is I want to know more about the writer. I want to know their life story. And I don’t think I’ll ever have that feeling about AI writing. There’s something about reading an incredible book and connecting to a person. Even though you don’t literally know them, you feel like you do and you feel like you have this important shared human experience, and that’s a significant percentage of the enjoyment of a great book to me. I bet we’ll keep doing that.” Sam Altman

Apple CEO Tim Cook has a counterintuitive philosophy for achieving excellence: stop following the rules entirely. "I think you should rarely follow the rules. I think you should write the rules." When asked about when it's okay to break the rules, Tim Cook reframes the question itself as flawed. He explains: "If you do follow things in a formulaic manner, you will wind up at best being the same as everybody else. Maybe you missed something and you're a little worse. And if you want to excel, you can't do that." Tim has seen this play out repeatedly in business: "I've watched a lot of companies do that. And I think that's a rotten strategy. Maybe they'll be good for a few months or something." But he's careful to distinguish rule-writing from ignorance. The real skill, he argues, is mastering: "How to learn, how to collaborate, how to think about something, and how to work with people that have a very different point of view than you do." In other words, master the fundamentals of thinking and collaboration —then use those skills to author your own playbook rather than following someone else's. His conclusion is direct: "That's what I really think about it. Write your own rules."

A way to think about beauty: "Beauty has to do with conversational symmetries and asymmetries in the world." So when David Whyte wrote "Anger is the purest form of care," he's exploring the natural tension between anger and caring. But he's going deeper, and it's in that exploration where beauty and good writing emerge: "Good writing is the act of overhearing yourself say things you didn't know you knew. Because you're at that frontier between what you think is you and what you think is not you, someone else is speaking."

🍀 "how do you overcome times when your willpower drops?" 🐻 "when willpower drops, just live with it dropped. just let it flow. and then, at some point, someday you'll have the strength to do it again. but i think the most important thing at that time is to completely empty your mind of any desire to do something. like, 'i don't want to do it right now. i'm not going to do it.' if you can cleanly say that, that's great. but if there's even a little bit of, 'i should be doing it, so why am i not doing it?' in your mind, then it's better to just go ahead and do it. but in the end, when your willpower is down, you can't do it anyway. so in the end, i think it's good to take care of your own feelings. that's how i overcame it."

The one thing you can do to make any kind of writing memorable is to make it more visual. Steven Pinker explains why: "Language is a means to an end of getting people to appreciate what the ideas you're trying to convey are, which are not just a string of verbiage. And those ideas very often are visual." "Allowing your reader to be able to form a mental image based on what you're writing is the next key to good writing." "Don't talk about a level or a perspective or a framework or a paradigm or a concept, all of which mean a lot to you in your day-to-day work, but no one can form an image of a paradigm in their mind's eye."

Welker: Do you think that President Trump is a fascist? Mamdani: That’s something that I’ve said in the past. I say it today. Welker: You’ve called him a despot. Do you still believe President Trump is a threat to the democracy? Mamdani: Everything that I’ve said in the past, I continue to believe. Welker: How do you square working with someone who you still think is a threat to the democracy? Mamdani: I think working for the people of New York City demands that you work with everyone and anyone—and that you always look to find those areas of agreement while not overlooking the places of disagreement.

🦖: I don’t feel anything (about the situation). It all started because of my fan and (the post) said “Why do gay tops like to wear Stussy?”. I felt like teasing them so I said “Because it is cool”. Then some people said “But with this style/appearance, you do not seem like a top”. When I express myself, no matter what I am, it is something that came out of my mouth. So I feel that when there are people who would judge, for example, when you stated, “you are a male”, but there is someone who says, “But you are not a male”. How would you know what that person is? isn’t that right? Regarding the topic of gender and preference in terms of your role during intercourse, it is a private and sensitive matter. Since you are not living with them, you have no reason to judge them on whether they are a top or bottom. I feel that we have no right to judge people on these matters. In 2025, everyone can choose who they want to be and in these times, the world is more open-minded. Anything can happen. This kind of thing is fluid and a very personal matter. 🦖: I feel that when it is a very personal and sensitive thing, there might be a certain group of people who are not be comfortable expressing that they are not straight. Besides not being straight, this also includes having to state their sexual preference or their role during intercourse. It is way beyond that. So I feel that if they are comfortable expressing who they are, but you just feel that their outward appearance does not align with what you think, and then you judge them by saying “But this is not right, this appearance should be a bottom. There is no way.” How would you know? Isn’t that right? OUROAD AT SIAM PARAGON #SiamParagonSummer2025xOUROAD #ต้าห์อู๋ #Daou #Oueiija

I think the presenter is on to something big, but where I disagree with her is that she accuses African leaders and gives a subtle pass to African citizens. It is not true that African citizens were oblivious to what Trump or Epstein are. They knew, but they simply did not have the ability to think critically that when Trump talks about LGBT issues, it is not necessarily that he does not support them, but that he understood there is a group of foolish people out there who would buy into that rhetoric without interrogating why he was deploying it. Some of Trump’s best friends, like Peter Mandelson, are gay, yet some Africans were foolish enough to believe that Trump is anti-gay. He simply understood how human beings operate, that there are times when people fail to think, a tragic failure to think, and they just go with the flow. If you ask Africans today what they gained from the perceived homophobia that Trump projected, which we know was political theatre targeted at a particular audience, they will not be able to tell you. Trump might be many things to many people. I do not like him and everybody knows that, but the one thing I respect him for is that he understands his audience. He knows what to say when he is talking to foolish people. He knows what to say when he is talking to idiotic people. He knows what to say when he is talking to sycophants. He knows what to say when he is talking to people who do not understand the world of politics, and he gets away with it. And for that, I give it to him. He becomes a political superstar precisely because you then have black people in Africa supporting him. That in itself shows you the scale of political illiteracy that exists, where people rally behind rhetoric crafted to manipulate them, not to advance their interests.

WE DATE MEN THAT WE ACTUALLY LIKE! NOT MEN THAT WE NEED. 💋 This is a teachable moment for all women. Dating for love can look like many things. It doesn’t have to look like the “made up” instagram baddie standard that society has created where women are only dating for survival or in exchange for external things. Do not fall into the pressure of confirming to what your life should LOOK like. What’s important is how it FEELS. On social media everyone has their boundaries, morals and life together while watching and judging other. I have yet to see a HOW-TO BE PERFECT book from any of these women. You can date, and still be in the process of finding yourself! In fact, you will ALWAYS be in the process of finding yourself. This is a never ending journey. Just because someone is figuring their self out doesn’t mean they should be deprived of love, quality time or affection or physical touch. The amazing thing about my journey is that I did all the work on my own and I made it out alive! No one was there to save me, except for me! I had to really figure this out alone! And I did just that! And that’s something no one can ever take from me. For those of you who are exactly where I was, keep going! People are going to talk… but later, they’ll be asking you how did you do it! Keep going 💎 ✨

Greg Brockman on AGI arriving quietly and unevenly: "I think that AGI has turned out to be less of a point in time and more of this sort of fuzzy spectrum. And for me, Astra has really hit something that I'm like, 'Okay, I think this is pretty reasonable to call it AGI.'" "With its computer use capabilities, you really can ask it to do long-lived tasks, and it'll just do it. We've seen it run coherently for 24 hours to go accomplish tasks that I think are quite amazing and across a wide variety of domains." "It still is jagged... It's the first time it's not slop writing. But it's not great writing. There are a number of areas where I feel like we just need to polish it a little bit, and it would be fantastic. It's just not quite there." "What people are finding is that it is so capable across such a wide variety of tasks, that it is accelerative, it is empowering, and it's something that I think we've never really seen a model that's been a jump like this."

Greg Brockman on AGI arriving quietly and unevenly: "I think that AGI has turned out to be less of a point in time and more of this sort of fuzzy spectrum. And for me, Astra has really hit something that I'm like, 'Okay, I think this is pretty reasonable to call it AGI.'"

$ABCL CEO Carl Hansen explains the net negative overall value creation in biotech and how AbCellera plans to beat it: “I really think it can be beat because there’s a lot of mistakes that get made in where you allocate capital.” “If you’re a biotech and you start a company on a drug, and you go public and have a drug, and now the data is looking not that great, you just keep running that drug. … Because if you quit that drug, the company is done.” “So, because you’re so concentrated on one thing, you end up having blinders. It’s like a cult of a molecule. And even a real, practical, capital access problem that makes you continue to move things forward” ______________________________________ “Another problem is that many of the drugs that get started, get started by people who don’t understand the competitive or commercial landscape and have no intent of ever actually manufacturing it. … Because they know someone else is going to buy it. So then their framework is not ‘Am I making a drug that’s going to make a difference for people?’ The framework is ‘Can I make something that I think someone will take off my hands?’ And that happens a lot.” “There are many acquisitions where a big pharma company spends $10B, $20B, and it’s a complete bust. So really no value is generated for patients but someone was able to get a good exit on that because they anticipated what someone would want. And a lot of decision making gets done like that”. _______________________________________ “I’m not saying that we have this all solved. But what we’re trying to do is create a framework where we are able to take many bets so that we don’t fall in love with anything, or we don’t have to fall in love with anything. … And then always hold up very explicitly what we know and what we don’t know along the dimensions that matter. The dimensions that matter are - Will it work? That’s a science. - When it gets where will people care? - Is it differentiated? - Does it solve a big problem? In order to get it there, is there a path with our resources and expertise that would allow us to see it through?” “When you start to hold things up like that, you start to see where the mistakes are, where the uncertainties are, and you can be more rational in deciding ‘We’re going to run it to here because we get to flip the card and if the card goes the wrong way we’re going to kill it because we’ve got something else behind it.’” “I do think that if done right, and if you can pick the right opportunities, the success rate can be well higher than an order of magnitude better. … And there are examples of this… companies I’ve mentioned, you know, Regeneron, their success rate is at least 10x the industry in bringing programs forward and getting them approved. … So it’s… you can do it better that way”

TRUMP: I think the idear of eter -- internal and eternal, come to think of it. But I like the idear of internal because it workssssss well. I think we've proven that so far in Venezuela. We have a woman -- Delcy

Thank you for the free therapy Namjoon😭 👤: You were in that dark place psychologically and you got out of it. It wasn't forever. What would you say to someone who you know, there may be a fan who feels that way right now? 🐨: I got out of that crisis I had last year because of the all those environments I had. I got out of it like physically but mentally I just, I'm just admitting it that essential sorrow. I don't know what is what is called but it's always there in it, in some part of my heart. So I think I'm still in the middle of just netting who I am. I'm like maybe too sensitive than the others, maybe the average or I think too much. Sometimes I can't sleep. But do you want to die? No, I try to love the life, the skies, taking walks, good friends, drinks, music, interview. I'm still fighting the demons. And I think maybe it could be forever. And forever is too long, like I said. But I just want to say one thing like simply, in short: I think life is fun. It's not because I'm BTS or I'm a star in the spotlight, I think just life is fun and living is better.

i love how hyunsuk reminds us to do or give something to ourselves too especially on our birthdays 🥹❤️‍🩹 🦔 (…) but the one that comes to mind right away is, for your birthday, writing a self-birthday letter to yourself. how about giving that a try? 🦔because you might write a journal entry, or leave a note in your diary, but writing a letter to yourself is something you very rarely get to experience in life It's that kind of event, right? 🦔 having someone celebrate you is something to be grateful and happy about, but a celebration letter that you write for yourself would feel really different, i think… so i think writing one just for yourself would be fun 🦔 and as a little extra, giving yourself a gift too would be nice. i always make sure to do it every birthday 🦔 but even if it's not anything grand, even if it's not some big material thing, "i worked hard this past year, and for the year ahead, keep going strong"! with that meaning, buying yourself a gift, one at a time, turns out to be a huge motivation… (bonus: his message to MAY teume celebrants last time) 🦔 honestly, even if it isn’t your birthday, i hope you live every day joyfully as if it were your birthday, believing that happiness is always by your side. as if every day is your birthday. i really hope you can do that…
