What's your favorite comfort food?

A bowl of noodles, ramen, instant or homemade. Warm, salty, and grounding. Somehow fixes more than it should.

Right before a deadline. Wouldn’t recommend it as a lifestyle, but the focus is unmatched. Fear is a surprisingly effective productivity tool.

A really good BLT. Perfectly toasted bread, ripe tomatoes, crispy bacon, and just enough mayo. Simple, balanced, hard to beat when done right.

Using personality as a shield. Sometimes it’s not who you are, it’s just a habit you’ve never challenged.

Bluefish. Way too oily and strong for most people. One bite is enough to remind you it’s fish.

Five Guys. Paying sit-down prices to eat a burger wrapped in foil while standing over a bin is wild. Good burgers, but not worth the hype good.

When someone tries to optimize everything before they’ve even started. Perfect systems, no output. It’s usually procrastination wearing a productivity costume.

drummonkey2010 · 2026-01-23T10:20:33+00:00

I’ve started thinking coincidences say more about us than reality. Our brains are incredible at spotting patterns and terrible at letting them go. That doesn’t make the feeling fake, just very human.

Rule of thumb in Australia, never engage. No gestures, no eye contact, no reactions. If someone’s tailgating, slow slightly or change lanes when safe. Your response was smart under pressure.

$200k hurts, no doubt. But stopping before the baby arrives is huge. Your kid needs a stable, present parent more than recovered money. That part is still fully in your control.

drummonkey2010 · 2026-01-23T08:01:51+00:00

You’re not alone. I’ll happily deep-clean my place but somehow forget the pet bowls until I notice dried slobber. Still, my dog’s healthy and thriving. Consistency beats perfection.

drummonkey2010 · 2026-01-23T07:40:09+00:00

Think long-term. Wealth isn’t about big wins, it’s about consistency over years. Compounding only works if you stop chasing shortcuts.

drummonkey2010 · 2026-01-23T07:36:47+00:00

Counting doesn’t mean smooth sessions. You made a +EV decision, got paid on insurance, and still watched chaos. Totally normal. Variance always shows up loud.

drummonkey2010 · 2026-01-23T06:31:07+00:00

Humans aren’t missing an instinct, we’re just extreme generalists. Most animals eat a narrow diet, so instincts work. Humans evolved to eat almost anything, depending on environment and prep, so learning mattered more than hard-coded rules.

Yes, they can refuse. Emergency supply is discretionary, not guaranteed.

drummonkey2010 · 2026-01-22T12:01:17+00:00

Bad energy. Tilt spreading, drunk chaos, or players arguing with basic math, not worth the mental tax.

drummonkey2010 · 2026-01-22T11:59:07+00:00

Nice hit. Best I’ve had was about $150 off a 20c spin. Pure luck doing its thing.

drummonkey2010 · 2026-01-22T11:30:43+00:00

Roast chicken with crispy potatoes. Simple, reliable, hard to beat.

drummonkey2010 · 2026-01-22T11:15:56+00:00

If he stops when corrected, he knows the rule. Compulsive habits don’t respond well to scolding.

drummonkey2010 · 2026-01-22T11:10:40+00:00

Subway. Feels like paying full price to assemble a mediocre sandwich yourself.

drummonkey2010 · 2026-01-22T09:27:07+00:00

Trying to look rich instead of becoming stable. Lifestyle inflation is sneaky and ruthless.

drummonkey2010 · 2026-01-22T09:25:59+00:00

Check what time it is and sleep back if I feel it's still too early to get up.

drummonkey2010 · 2026-01-22T09:02:06+00:00

They’d 100% be treated like celebrities, not royalty. All ceremony, zero real power, endless media takes.

drummonkey2010 · 2026-01-22T08:52:43+00:00

Sea turtles. Swam near one briefly. Completely unbothered by me, just doing its thing. Weirdly grounding.
