Singaporeans will get one-shotted by AI.
The entire country is literally educated to be middle management, middlemen and white collar service providers.
We’ve literally built the economy on offering the best NPCs to MNCs and we’re about to pay the price.

The "I'm going to marry a CEO" airhead epidemic
movies and shows are only portraying love in the top 1% ie. average girl meets billionaire's son or super model male
conditioning modern women to only go for the top 1%, which results in unrealistic expectations and imbalance in the dating pool

interesting comments to these questions, especially regarding looksmaxxing
why is every conversation with 20-35yo men about looksmaxxing?
what do you think is the reason?

some thoughts I’ve been having recently:
- why is every conversation with 20-35yo men about looksmaxxing?
- why are P/E ratios on stocks so high when the future is so uncertain?
- what is the win condition for the US and why does it look like a militaristic…

bought a new kobo clara colour because the old one started to phantom glitch
unable to port my annotations over because all my books are sideloaded, which is quite a bummer
tried claude, but after 2h of attempts it gave up too
managed to export and keep them in notion, but it isn't very ideal
if anyone has managed to do it before, lmk

Precisely.
The definition of "rape" (sex without consent) is very male-brained, and when you try to copy-paste it onto women, the edges don't line up.
Men almost always have a crystal clear idea of what we want, so the question of whether something is…

when we say women have rape fantasies, its moreso being pursued aggressively despite their rejections
rather than the physical act of raping that society thinks of (sex without consent)
also ties in with the "marry a CEO" fantasy: https://t.iss.one/humblespace/1061

I recently heard an a16z partner on a podcast say "The average person doesn't want to save time. They want to waste time."
It kinda fucked my mind.
I never understood this. I don't use YouTube browse features. Don't scroll feeds. Don't go down rabbit holes.…
