I started the chessfeels podcast from Episode 1 in mid-October and I'm slowing catching up to the present day. But now I don't use Twitter and I can't comment on their years-old posts about past episodes

anyway this one with John Bartholomew is great. recommend

Whenever recommendation forms ask me to rate an applicant on "self-awareness" I always say "did not observe" on account of being unable to observe other's mental states. Sorry, MIT, even though you've given me a Likert scale, I simply can't tell you if this applicant has higher-order consciousness!

once saw a tweet that was like “early bird gets the worm! but the late bird gets the other worm. there’s worms everywhere.” and that’s actually so beautiful. i want to live an unhurried life, there are worms everywhere 🪱
