I fed 24 huskies through Finnish winters to compete. Now I build infrastructure so champions don’t need viral fame to eat.

Outcome-based sponsorship, verified performance, merit over followers.

This means she “has to” go home, and will not need to chicken out when other kids get carried away.

I will call her immediately and tell her she has to come right now, because I’m not at all happy with the way she’s cleaned up her room.

Or some other unreasonable “right now missy!” demand.

If she’s out with friends but she gets uncomfortable for any reason, she can text me or call me and tell me she’s having a good time, but using specific words.

That’s going to be the code for me to go into “bad dad mode”:

This subservience is a real threat.

US political class resents European civilization and will sacrifice our security to prove their dominance. Sovereignty isn't optional.

If they want to be useful I would expect them to look both ways.

Or shall we pretend everyone is acting in good faith?

That passes the Opposite Test. Either option could work — it’s a bet on how to win.

If it’s obvious, it’s bullshit.

(And if it’s mostly numbers, it’s probably an objective, not a strategy.)

Share this with someone who tried to pull a fast one on you and call it strategy 😉

See? Nobody would ever choose that. So it’s not a strategy.

A real strategy describes a non-obvious selection:

“We choose to invest more into customer service than any competitor.”

Zorbas Hotel in Myrtéa, Greece was a funny experience. We were there in February and just about the only guests with our family friends.

Me and my friend were playing chess in the bar when the host said he’s going to bed, but invited us to help ourselves from the bar.

I’ve found some absolute gems over the years, especially outside of typical season it can be very interesting.

The indie hotels tend to be family affairs, and if it’s low season they have the time to share stories (and often cook some family specialty!)
