The philosophy articulated by the embattled Marcus Aurelius as his personal life and empire threatened to collapse around him in 170 BC. It's over 2000 years old, and we are now living in a world utterly inconceivable to even the most imaginative Roman aristocrat in the midst of a psychedelic Dionysian fever dream. Modernity seems architected to conflict directly with every facet of evolutionary psychology and the philosophical values that have edified men and women for millennia. While new science, thinking, and practice from the fields of Biohacking and personal growth seem to offer pragmatic solutions in a world doing its damnedest to claw away our free will with digital talons.
In a world utterly corrupted by politics, big business, big government, and devouring ideology, is stoicism as a mindset an individualistic "cope" to keep your metaphorical hands off pitchforks that should be raised?
That's the question I'll be exploring today with Will R. Young, a behavioral finance strategist, philosopher, top-performing superforecasters in the Good Judgment Project, author of a new book, "The Enough Equation," and avid surfer - he knows a thing or two about dodging shark fins.
This red alga is a multi-vitamin in a moss; it’s nutrient-dense, with 92 of the 102 minerals that make up the human body.
Also referred to as Chondrus crispus or carrageen moss, it is another health supplement used since time immemorial. It’s native to the windswept, rocky, jagged coasts of Ireland, Scotland, and the Northern Atlantic coasts.

I'm not a doctor, medical professional, or trained therapist. I'm a researcher and pragmatic biohacking practitioner exercising free speech to share evidence as I find it. I make no claims.

Some double-blind, placebo-controlled human research is excellent and profoundly helpful to us in living better, but I will show here that some "science" is tantamount to a ranty, opinionated blog. Some is funded by the pharmaceutical industry and really is just marketing masquerading as science.
In fact, it is the most abundant fatty acid in the brain; approximately half of the weight of any given neuron's plasma membrane is comprised of DHA. Those seeking a Limitless mind and body should make fish a regular part of their diet in addition to supplementing DHA.

I spent about three weeks in Barcelona, and Valencia seems to have everything that Barcelona does at about half to a third of the cost. In Barcelona, a very simple flatshare in a kind of cool neighborhood costs 31 Euros a night, and a shitty hostel costs $22 a night, whereas in Valencia, I found that not awful private room flatshares via Airbnb cost $10-$15.
In general, the wifi in Barcelona is quite mediocre; the speed and reliability are so wanting that it negatively affected my productivity during the time I spent there. Disappointingly, there’s just a single real digital nomad-friendly cafe in Barcelona. In contrast, the wifi in Valencia is muy buen! At cafes, restaurants, hostels, and Airbnb apartments, I consistently found the +20MB up/down connection that I need to do work.
If you want to go shopping at a Prada store, Barcelona’s the city for you, but Valencia is overall a whole lot better value for nomadic seducers.
