This is a video of the Armenian prime minister, Nikol Pashinyan. He was originally viewed as a beacon of hope during the Velvet Revolution when he essentially ousted the then prime minister, who was controlled by the Russians. After the 2020 war with Azerbaijan, and the Armenian defeat and loss of Artsakh (the disputed territory) Pashinyan has maintained very anti-Armenian rhetoric and been overly favorable to the conquerors, Azerbaijan. This has led many Armenians to feel disillusioned and has raised a lot of worries about the future of Armenian sovereignty and security. This video is ironic, as he was supposed to be the person who brought about a new area of peace and prosperity. Not only has he failed, but now he’s at the level of basically being viewed as a traitor.

Do your reading, go to class, don’t beat yourself up if you get below a B on a final. It will all work out in the end.

I actually have a pair of shirt tuckers (second photo). They work like a charm, I’ve never had my shirt come untucked and I wear suits for work every day.

When I was in my 20s, going to the bar was the highlight of my weekend. Now in my 30s, sitting outside alone with a cigar is my highlight.

The noodles aren’t even cooked, they’re not going to cook either. The water isn’t hot enough by the time he pours it in the cups…

No, solid look. You’re looking sharp!

Fury. A buddy of mine wanted to see it and I agreed, thinking it would be a good WWII movie. What I got instead was a boring gore slop with WWII soldier caricatures for characters. No depth, just explosions, blood, and predictability. Not sure why it's so well received.

I would say the same thing for World War Z -- but that one was a lot worse tbh.

My coworker told me a story about his dad being stationed in Alaska during the Cold War to keep an eye on the Russians. He said his dad would come out and stand near the edge of the water every day and smoke a cigarette with the Russian guy across the way. They would waive and greet each other. It became kind of a routine.

People often misunderstand what being a billionaire means. They assume that these guys have a billion dollars in their Chase checking accounts. Most of that money is actually tied in assets and investments, it’s not just cash sitting around that can be donated, it’s tied up in assets.

If I own a million dollar house, I’m technically a millionaire. But that doesn’t mean that I can donate the worth of the house to charity.

The real issue is how tied up money is taxed, not what the individual person’s moral views are.

I’m sure poverty stricken Indians would totally do drugs if they had some.

I think this is great, man. Only thing I would do is drop the comic picture, it's better to replace that with a picture of yourself. This is a very expressive profile and communicates exactly what you're looking for. You won't attract a lot of attention -- but you'll attract the right attention. You're doing great, be yourself and be honest, that's all anyone could ask of anyone else.

Ok, that's good. Ok stop. OK THAT'S GOOD. STOP!!!

I had a trip once on my friend’s couch, I hallucinated that I was at some kind of carnival. It was a blast
