Epictetus (2.19.28): It is one's serenity that distinguishes the true Stoic from those who merely put on the form of a philosopher. The latter speaks brave words but collapses under the weight (or threat) of hardship. "But, philosopher, tell me, why are you trembling?" (2.19.18)
Someone told me the guy from Tesla bought Twitter. I was sure I heard them wrong when they told me but I googled it and turns out it's true.

2020 was the year where I kept saying, "I never thought I would see _____ in my lifetime." 2021 is shaping up to outdo 2020. What a time to be alive.
Difficulties need not penetrate to your soul but can remain external. All the things which you now see are changing and will not continue to exist as they are. The cosmos is constant change, and our lives are but a series of choices. (M. Aur. Med. 4.3)
Do not hold the same views as the person who does you harm, or even wishes to harm you. Rather, see these judgments for what they truly are. (M. Aur. Med 4.11)
A person can be both fully engaged and at peace. (M. Aur. Med. 1.8)

@PaulFound17 When I shop for coats and bags, I look for Loeb-sized pockets.
This is what reading Xenophon does to you:
My daughter sent me this. I thought it was cute.
A good reminder that some things which we take for granted are objects of fascination to others. Life has many such rich experiences if we could let ourselves see them.

On why to study the Classics: It's not that I study it, therefore it's the best. It's that it's the best, therefore I study it.
I’m about virus-ed out. How about y’all? I know three people who have died from it and I know, directly or indirectly, at least ten who have had it, with varying degrees of sickness as a result. Stay safe and healthy, friends.
