I lived through but never understood the beginning of the East Coast / West Coast thing.
I'm a white man who is a music lover. I don't think of musicians as people who want to do murder, Miles Davis never put a "hit" out on anyone.
That Sean Combs so involved in EvW is sus.

The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

A few years ago I went with a friend to help them buy a house, and the realtor mentioned that wealthy people buy homes with cash as an investment bc the ROI is better than the stock market. So this makes so much sense.

I decided to prepare for the Worst
The stoics (ancient) suggested that preparing for the Worst should be a daily exercise.
For them, the Worst wouldn't arrive on a daily basis, but preparing for the emotional hit was a discipline.

I'm watching "Wargames" which was one of my favorite movies when I was young.
One thing I'm struck by after all these years is how much David Lightman uses whatever is available to him to problem solve.

The images hammered into the sides of a goblet found in Palestine give us an idea of what people living more than 4000 years ago imagined the creation of the cosmos looked like
