Maybe it means the symptoms are invisible, but the effects (e.g. death) aren’t? It’s really badly written though!

He faced a choice:
• Stay in his golden handcuffs
• Risk everything on the internet
The butler's story of regret haunted his decision.

Lesson 4: Emotion drives the biggest breakthroughs
Stevens suppressed his emotions, leading to regret.
Bezos channeled emotion into:

There’s some kind of career optimization coaching bro on Twitter who has translated Remains of the Day into a business book parable webinar presentation and it might be the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen

If You Want To Be Friends, Then Why Aren’t You Friendly? A look at one of the most alarming and pressing problems of our age: the much-lamented fact that "the left" won't be friends with "the right," over "political views."

I’m late to @juliusgoat.bsky.social’s post, which deconstructs calls for “the left” to be friends with “the right”. It builds to what we’re actually being asked to be; I won’t spoil it because its power comes from reading everything leading to it. armoxon.substack.com/p/if-you-wan...

Anything with a hat is truly posh. And the weirder the colour pallete the posher it is. Navy? Basic. Bottle green? Slightly posh. Mustard yellow and sky blue with a boater? At least £30,000 / year.

Is it even September if you’re not doing image searches of school badges? (Schools went back weeks ago here but many of my old classmates are now in England)
