Posting this tonight for no particular reason:
"Historians have a word for Germans who joined the Nazi party, not because they hated Jews, but out of a hope for restored patriotism, or a sense of economic anxiety, or a hope to preserve their religious values, or dislike of their opponents, or raw political opportunism, or convenience, or ignorance, or greed.
That word is 'Nazi.' Nobody cares about their motives anymore."

Bill Bryson: Imagine a form of baseball in which the pitcher, after each delivery, collects the ball from the catcher and walks slowly with it out to center field; and that there, after a minute’s pause to collect himself, he turns and runs full tilt toward the pitcher’s mound before hurling the ball at the ankles of a man who stands before him wearing a riding hat, heavy gloves of the sort used to handle radioactive isotopes, and a mattress strapped to each leg.

Make it your goal to live a quiet life, minding your own business and working with your hands, just as we instructed you before.
Okay this is about as good as it gets 😂

And thank you! 💟
Happy 9th birthday to @[email protected]. Let's throwback to April of 2015 for what was widely regarded internally as "the best Hover podcast spot I've ever heard" by our then Acquisition Manager, Alex F. https://www.relay.fm/bonanza/8
I managed to replicate the Readwise Daily Review feature in @drafts 😍
It pulls a configurable amount of random highlights from your account and you can add notes, add/remove tags, discard and favorite the highlight directly from Drafts without opening Readwise at all.
(It does not update your review streak in Readwise though!)
🧐Interested?
Allow me to flex a little here. I did a big thing.
This morning, I talked to famed Olympic diver GREG LOUGANIS for an *exclusive* interview about mental health startup Aura Health, his career as an Olympian, the importance of mental wellness, and how it's affected him in life.
I'm pretty proud of this one.
