In any case, I'm pretty sure one of the stoics said something about not needing to have an opinion on everything. And honestly, it's quite liberating. It's freeing when you don't have to have a reply to everything.
Never heard of the hawk tuah thing so of course since it's you mentioning it I had to take a look, but that lasted about 20 seconds. that might be one of the best examples you could have offered to prove that some ignorance is bliss.
“We need to make saying “I don’t know” great again.” That’s the only conclusion that I can come by honestly. Two sayings that I have wondered over often throughout my past career.
Haha I like what both of those William's had to say! I'm also starting to think adults don't exist. We're all just kids trying to figure it out day by day.
Lately, influenced by the times, I ve come to see it from more sinister perspective. It seems that some adults seek to control the narrative. The wannabe dominators think they know better. Perhaps the arrogant privilege of adhering to a system of belief that averts the potential of risk. A pyramid scheme of power. I can only assume they are terrified of the unknown. That said.
Absolutely. I felt so much better about not feeling like I had to come up with completely original ideas after reading the book "steal like an artist".
Haha he had his airpods in so I took that as a sign that he didn't want to be bothered. Hopefully I get another shot!
Trust me, you don't want to know! I think that's the right approach to take when it comes to news, it's nothing more than entertainment. They're entire business model only works if they stir up anger, hatred, and strife. But I prefer to keep this in mind when it comes to news -- anything that is truly worth knowing about will find its way to me without constantly consuming it.
Great post Arman! I love how everyone is asking what’s “hawk tua” in the comments 😂😂😂.
Thank you Malik! Haha I thought I was the only one who wasn't in the "know".
This needs to be a front page article…only problem is people don’t read past headlines anymore 🥲
Haha I appreciate you! That's why I try to make my headlines contain the message I want to get across even if they don't read past that.
What's hawk tuah? I'm out of the loop.

Please stay out of the loop on that one. You'll thank me later.
Of course the stoics had already realized this thousands of years before me!
Haha I will gladly stay out of the loop. Although I'm a little curious now 🤣
Trust me, you don't want to know!

My deepest apologies for making you look that up...
What does this say about our species when these types of things capture our collective attention?
I'd answer that question but it would just be my opinion.
I'm sure you could craft it into a beautiful story :)
Totally agree!
Thank you my friend!

I really don’t know.
Oh I like that - "a pyramid scheme of power". Nice line!
...the hawk tuah discourse is at least semi-proof that devolution is becoming reality...
as if we needed more proof...
...yeah the decline of western civilization was a lot more fun in the three Penelope Spheeris movies...
who said just western civilization is declining...?
Haha you caught me! I saw Chris at my barber shop a few months ago but was too scared to say anything to him...
