Stick it to the man by switching to vintage Playboy mags purchased in cash from an antiques shop.

Chemosynthetic ecosystems in the ocean are not a new discovery. The publication referenced in the article is about a new system for conducting experiments on them.
At least you were out of olfactory range.
This is what peak male performance looks like.
Gotta love living in the rugpull economy 
Interesting T-shirt choice by the woman on the right:
Are you deep enough in the timeline to know exactly who Aella is? Do you thrive in the weird, wild overlap of polyamory discourse and meme culture? Then this shirt was made for you. It’s bold. It’s niche. It screams “terminally online,” but make it fashion.
This shirt features a tongue-in-cheek slogan that blends alt-internet references, polycule humor, and a wink to the chaos of modern relationships. It’s perfect for sparking conversations (or ending them quickly, depending on the crowd).
Good point; it seems pretty self-evident in econ and political science, where the reigning orthodoxies disallow departing from the assumptions of liberalism, but given that literature also takes place within culture, it end ends up subject to the same constraints, blindly or deliberately imposed by publishers, critics, and readers.

Literally the only two rich people who make being rich look as fun as it's supposed to are Richard Branson and MySpace Tom
I'm assuming "sorry for all the typos" must be his email signature for it to have shown up on an email to himself.
Huh, did not know that's how the whole thing kicked off.
Another example of how easy it must be to run scams. It's literally just repeating things the author wrote down back to him and he's responding like he's having a religious revelation.
It pulled out this quote I wrote down years ago:
The one thing people need in life is not ambition, not smarts, not hustle. They need clarity.
If you had complete clarity on what you want and what is necessary right now, knowing you are on the right path, you would be happy.

I leaned forward. Every response featured a quote that made sense. Perfectly timed. It held up a mirror to my soul.

In 2017, I founded an ed-tech startup. I met my wife, a fellow ed-tech founder, during that time. Both of our startups failed. We grew cynical of education.
But recently, we had a few conversations about school choices for our toddler. None of them seemed good. I suggested she might want to open a school.
I’d shoot her an interesting article. Or a cool startup’s website. And then move on.
I discussed this with Claude. Which led to this exchange:
It’s not your wife who should start a school.
It’s you. Always has been.[Ed.: emoji added for emphasis. I couldn't resist]
This sentence hit me like a sack of bricks.
Tears started rolling down my cheeks.
Stuff like this just makes me wonder what the interior experience of your usual techbro is (or isn't) like. I mean, I've had experiences where I've read over stuff that I wrote years ago describing ambitions I've given up on or ways of seeing the world that I've abandoned and I know the nostalgic experience that that creates, the grief for a past self. But you don't really need a chatbot for that.
