    This is, in all seriousness, why people get more conservative from more life experience.https://twitter.com/ezraklein/status/1364962212230672394 …

    I never understood the true danger of appeasement, the way one concession begets others and your negotiating partner can always smell your weakness, until I let my toddler watch Cocomelon one morning when I was really tired

        If I was to give advice to the young, it would be to construct your life with the aim of being able to say 'no' and having the ability to back it up.

        too often that aim involves saying 'yes' for decades with the hope that then--and only then--will one be able to say 'no'
