I spent today in a stupor... Last night, my MRI results came back my disease is worse than I thought The space between my uterus and rectum is almost completely sealed shut with scar tissue. Normally, this is an open pocket. My uterus wall is the most affected… the endometriosis has grown all the way through the muscle wall, extending up to the top of the uterus. My rectum and lower colon are tethered… pulled and stuck by adhesions where they meet. Inside, I am twisted, contorted, scarred. Earlier this week I was on the phone with my mum, asking her about her own previous menstrual cycles. I asked questions that no one had ever asked her… did she also have pain while defecating? Just how painful were her periods? A memory of my 13th birthday comes back… me finding her curled up on the couch, doubled over in pain. I concluded that she, too, probably had endo. She tried to explain that ‘back then’ there just “wasn’t that much attention on female health”. Funny, this is a line I still say today. I thought about my future daughter… would she be repeating the same line in 30 years? Oh.. can I even have a daughter? Maybe not. Infertility affects 30 to 50% of women with endometriosis. My endo is likely stage 4 (the worst stage). There’s so much to say on this topic… For now, all I know is this: I have a slow-growing disease, which is very very burdensome to diagnose, and has been increasingly distorting my body for 8 years… It affects 1 in 10 women, likely more. 190 million people. And yet, most people don’t know about it. So.. what do we do now? Honestly, tonight, idk. If you’d asked me yesterday, I would have told you all about our grand plan to cure my endo. Bryan and I have been cooking up a strategy with scientists around the world. But my results came back so much worse than I thought. Tomorrow I am sure I will wake up, dust off the despair, and get back to work. The usual treatments (hormonal suppression and surgery) don’t cut it. Both suck. And neither is a cure. So, tomorrow, we’ll see what else is possible. But tonight I grieve with millions of women.

Effective Altruism is the natural enemy of the left and right because the right doesn't believe in altruism and the left doesn't believe in effectiveness.

If hope feels too heavy, borrow something smaller: curiosity. What might tomorrow reveal? Who might surprise you? Which version of yourself have you not met yet?

@zetalyrae I don’t think this is true. I consume basically zero videos and still feel the consequences of brainrot, mainly due to Twitter. I guess the problem is not the medium but the pace, reading 50 tweets about random stuff is not very different from watching a few TikToks

Smart is common. Steady is rare. The bottleneck to great work isn't IQ. It's emotional self-management.

The anti-memorization movement has left millions of students unable to think because every elementary operation consumes working memory. For instance, solving equations feels smooth when basic arithmetic is automatic. It's like moving puzzle pieces around, and you just need to

Men must go on sex strike. Do not give women any of your love until they submit to patriarchy. Feminist women are undeserving of love. Men must therefore go on sex strike.

Okay so I constantly see people on here say that having children made them realize gender roles are more innate than they initially believed. One example I saw one time was that someone's daughter nurtured her stuffed animals while his son used them as action figures. All I could

Math absolutely changed my life for the better. Even more so than weight lifting and sports, which themselves have been extremely positive influences. I'm surprised we don't think about math/mental exercise in the same way as physical exercise. No one questions that you can go to the gym and get stronger, or run consistently and get better cardio, but not many seem to think that you can just "make yourself smarter" by training your brain. I 100% feel that this was the case for me. School math perhaps ruins it for a lot of people? I found school math extremely ineffective. Competition math worked way better for me, but also has its flaws. Like going to the gym, math or any mental exercise needs to be hard. It should feel boring at first, frustrating, even hurt a bit. At least until you're competent and can find flow in the process. You need to pick hard problems to work on. Like when going to the gym, you should come out of a good math session feeling exhausted but proud. You need to push your limits – occasionally pick problems you're not sure you can solve and spend at least 10+ hours before giving up. Math is awesome. Do more math.

I've learned that people with impossibly high internal standards essentially want to surprise themselves with their own abilities. It's impossible. Anything that you work hard towards for long enough will eventually become mundane. Hate to say it, but that IS the badge of honor.

It’s funny to me how we went from vertical text on parchment to text organized horizontally with the invention of the codex (the book format), and now back to vertical reading again with infinite-scroll feeds
