And either way, I just, you know what? My feed is more interesting when there's some people talking about things that I care about and yeah, I don't have to agree with you on everything. I just don't.

It certainly did to a lot of people. I think that tweet really popped off, and I don't know if you noticed, but Bryan Johnson chimed in on the thread, and I could see how Bryan would read that as a bit of a jab. And I do think that Jamie was probably thinking of him…

Every indiscretion or even outburst of fun or cringe is highly likely to be recorded and then shared to the point of ridicule, and what is the rational reaction for humans under those conditions is to pull back, is to make sure you don't dance like nobody's watching because-... they're probably filming you to your great and…

But just recently, we've been talking about this over-optimizers. I saw, uh, Chris Williamson, Modern Wisdom had a bit where he was like, "Yeah, okay, maybe we did go a little overboard." And the triggering thing was the Diary of a CEO, where the host was saying something to the effect of, "I had a glass of wine…

Like way down, people having a very hard time meeting a spouse. And-... a lot of that has moved over to apps that have all sorts of negative outcomes and consequences, right? Like maybe we will look back, or maybe we already are looking back and thinking like, "Eh, do you know what? Maybe getting wasted every once in a…

And this is the myopia of modernity, that we reduce things down to like, well, one glass on this long run study meant that you had a 0.1% greater risk of some heart defect. Yes, but if you didn't live at all, what's the point? And again, it's also easy to flip over…

that not only last year did I come on her birthday, that was bad enough, but that I called her a wonderful woman on the show, because that sounded like her name was Nancy and she was 65—... in the suburb of Rochester. So I'm like, I was trying to play the 50. Like, no, I don't know…

This was actually a feature, I built it into Omarchy. So memento mori. Remember death. If you pull down the calendar in Omarchy, you open it by clicking the clock. It opens up, and the first funny thing, I took it off the internet. There's this account called Year's Progress, and it, every day it…

`5:04:47`

... is a new line that shows how long are you done with your life. I think I'm at 62%. I'm like, if you hover over it, it says, "Memento mori."

`5:04:57`

Fair number of people found it morbid, but this was why it is an Easter egg. It's not, like, exposed. You…

`5:05:43`

Amazing. Very important to remember. Not wonderful, amazing.

Actually, Danish croissants are not particularly good. In my opinion, the only place you can find a half-decent croissant, of all places, is 7-Eleven, which is hilarious to me because 7-Eleven in the US is the place where, at least in Chicago, you…

No, I've legitimately considered hiring an investigative journalist to get to the bottom of this, because the number of theories I've heard have been all over the place. It's the water. It's the butter. It's the skill. It's the this, it's the that, it's the other thing. I'm…

It all depends whether it's lunch or it's dinner. If it's lunch, it-

`5:08:11`

Well, depends on what time of day you're getting murdered.

`5:08:14`

If it's an afternoon execution, I only get lunch.

`5:08:19`

And if I get lunch, it's at Louisiana, the museum in north of Copenhagen. I was just there with Jamie two days ago, and we go there all the time. The museum is lovely. We don't go for the museum. We go for the cafeteria. That in itself sounds crazy. Like-

`5:08:40`

... you're gonna, you're gonna drive half an hour to go to a cafeteria. Well, it just so happens to be, it is the best lunch I've probably ever had in my life. The chef there is just unbelievably good, and not only is the food amazing, what's even more amazing to my system…

`5:09:17`

It's a cafeteria at a museum that happens to have the best lunch I've ever had anywhere in my life.

`5:09:23`

It's, like, Nordic cuisine, so it's, it's... A funny thing is the menu, when I look at it, I was like, "Do you know what? If I saw this…

`5:09:33`

... root free fruit and-... and onions-... and all sorts of healthy stuff. That sounds disgusting. And then you sit down and eat it, and the angels sing. But it's even more particular than that. It's the butter. The whipped butter that they have there, the best butter anywhere in the world.

`5:09:52`

There must be some connection. But literally-... even in Paris, I've never had whipped butter that tastes as delicious as the butter does at Louisiana in Copenhagen. Literally, I would drive 30 minutes-... to have bread and butter at the cafeteria in Louisiana.

`5:10:15`

... and we had the lunch, and we were like...

`5:10:20`

This is rivaling the best tasting restaurants-... I've ever been to in my life, and I've gone to Noma a couple of times and tried what there is to try, and this is right up there.

`5:10:36`

Well, I think there's a lot of good options in Copenhagen, but actually I'll pick a place in Spain. So there is this place in Marbella called Puente Romano. It's a hotel, and down by the beach, they have this beach restaurant with fresh seafood. Unbelievably delicious. I'm trying to remember what it…

`5:11:18`

I mean, the ambiance certainly helps, but I think my taste buds are also just-

`5:11:24`

It's just really good food. Because for ex- that cafeteria, it is, there's a lot of people. Like, I wouldn't rate it as like, oh my God, this is just a place I want to sit…
