Growing older without becoming bitter about everything you've been through. Keeping your heart open while learning from life is no small achievement.
Something people rarely call a luxury but should…

Somewhere in your 20s or 30s you'll get the opportunity to rebuild your life after a negative loop, heal from what broke you, live in your own space, reconnect with your discipline, and learn to love yourself again. It's very important that you see that journey through.
What's the hardest lesson you've learned?

Rosco will be taken to the hospital for his final few hours. Thank you for all the love and support. I’m completely heartbroken. My biggest fear of over 20 years is coming to life. I know he was treated like a king. Love you forever, my best friend.
Rosco is over 22 years old. I got him right out of high school. He had outlived my whole family pretty much, but was around for all of it. He isn’t doing well. I have him comfortable. Please send positive thoughts this is so hard…

if you're kind and patient with strangers but lose your temper the moment you walk into your own house, you're performing for strangers while punishing the people who actually matter. If you're giving your best smile to your colleagues, but giving your tired version to your parents, you're saving your energy for people who will forget you tomorrow. If you're listening to everyone else's problems but have zero patience for the people who actually know you. You're seeking validation from the outside world instead of protecting the love you already have. You act your best for people who don't matter because you're afraid of what they think. But you give your family the leftovers, lower your efforts and mistake comfort for carelessness. Remember the world only loves you as long as you perform, but the people at home are the only ones who stay when the show is over.

Let me get this straight... OpenAl was founded as a nonprofit. Open source. For everyone. "To benefit humanity." Then he raised billions of dollars. Then he closed the source code. Then he converted to for-profit. Then he scraped the entire internet without asking anyone. Then he used YOUR writing YOUR art YOUR code to train his models. Now he's on stage saying you'll pay HIM to access intelligence. Just like a water meter. He stole all of your data. He built the product with your work. And now he's going to bill you to use it... Corporate greed has reached an all time high, and they're not even hiding it anymore...
Open AI CEO, Sam Altman: β€œWe see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter.”

And rich people would still look you in the eyes while wholeheartedly saying that the poor just never work hard enough
dia meter bumi segitu 12.742 km 😭😭 berarti driver gue udah muterin bumi lebih dari 2x anjir 😭🌍
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Diameter Bumi adalah 12.742 km bukan keliling Bumi. Keliling Bumi sekitar 40.075 km sehingga jarak 27.057 km yang ditempuh hanya kurang dari satu kali mengelilingi Bumi. id.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bumi id.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keliling_…

As a woman I am extremely aware the only reason I have rights is because women before me got mouthy, organized, and made herself inconvenient. Thats why I see women who uphold the patriarchy as traitors

Sampurna the orangutan has died. He collapsed on a palm-oil plantation in West Kalimantan province, Indonesiaβ€”his lungs destroyed by the smoke of his burning forest.
