While watching this I thought:
If there is a God, it is inattentive because it it busy watching everything in different speeds
And then: If there is a God, it has had the most awesome version of youtube forever, and that is why it never does anything anymore.

We live in a highly specialized world. On the plus side of that, we get to watch crazy dudes like this.
But on the negative side, it seems like opportunities close very quickly. If you want to be a gymnast for example, and you’re not in that game at a very young age, you’ll probably never compete on the world stage.

“Everything’s okay. Everything’s like usual. Yesterday trading ended. Everything’s okay. The economists went to their homes, the laundry is drying on the lines, dinners are waiting in place… Dow Jones traded steadily and closed with 8,761 points, Nasdaq added 0.9% to a level of 1,860 points…. The guy from the shakshuka [an Israeli egg-and-tomato dish] shop raised his prices again….”

“I think his action captured peoples’ hearts everywhere, and when the moment came, his character defined the moment, rather than the moment defining him. ”
Something to think about, next time you’re carrying some groceries
Go get ‘em, kid…
