For strategists, anthologies and stand up are a gold mine for insights. I feel stand up has been mostly stale since 2020 but books tend to be less trendy and packed more densely with observations. I’m not discrediting the value of other genres. I just love the brand of nuggets in my favs.
My favorite reads are a tie between social psychology and anthologies because they’re always filled with scathing and/or insightful critiques that are impossible to forget. A great thing about anthologies is that authors get their insights off through the lens of ordinary and mundane people.
I’m not sure if it’s pulling the article image or the blog image since they’re the same in this instance. When I finished the text, I just went back to the top and selected insert media or something like that. I was on desktop. I’m not sure if that makes a difference. I’ll look later.
Instagram (AI) has gotten lazy with the ad approvals. You can sell anything if you can outsmart a robot.
A lot of people think advertising is a boy’s club like Mad Men. This is the industry today. And for what I do, Black men in similar roles are far and few between.
I think agreeing on supplements to mitigate a libido imbalance between partners is fine, but the way they talk about it here makes women sound like mere sex toys for the “bros.” Reddits for this 141 supplement are so degenerate compared to other Reddits about low libido. These dudes are very weird.
Silly me seeing someone say “get 31g injections instead” and thinking these were gym related. In my defense, everyone in the convo a swole gym bro.
I haven't been able to pick a side on this. I don't think it's untrue, but I also think many people carry their existing biases into how they interpret other people's stories. I also think many people could benefit from self-help books/media that directly challenge the mindset and thinking process.
These are very decent but after eating one, I’m not inclined to immediately eat another.
