I'd like to propose the adjective "velleidaemonic" to describe environments/ways of being which are conducive to recognising/fulfilling your velleities.
(I'm open to other words, I just think it's a useful concept)

a “velleity” is a desire so small and fleeting that it does not occur to you to act on it. get in the habit of noticing them, then try acting on them or at least writing them down. go on walks and daydre…

What are some fun things to do in New York and London which are not just seeing tourist destinations?
E.g. I'll go to Broadway and West End, but probably not Statue of Liberty or Buckingham Palace.

And to me that's the entire POINT of a marriage (this and the commitment to stay together to raise kids).
People sometimes talk about having limited time marriages. I can see some of the benefits, but I think this is a really important feature which you would lose.

to extrapolate, this means i need to be able to carry around kronos, the imprisoned titan, for seconds; and a little toy doll for days.
New fitness goals:
- be able to carry around a woman for minutes
- be able to carry around a child for hours

I don't know if this is part of the definition of the dad bod but my brother is looking pretty fit from having to carry around a toddler like half of the time we're out.

There is no expected response time to replies. You can reply whenever you want. We're all shouting into the void, when the void shouts back it is a gift not an expectation.

🪡 Mini-thread of interesting facts and surprises from working on this post for World Malaria Day with @gracevadams!
Abraham Lincoln & George Washington both had malaria at some point—it was prevalent in the US until the 1950s.
