I'm tired of news, fads, and the daily slop, but I do think the feed is a great invention.

So instead of nobodies, I'll scroll the greats.

Read the latest from top practitioners, or read old books - nothing in between. Why listen to a random X account's take on AI coding, seed oils, Iran; or an anon telling you how to spend your time? On topics that don't change quickly - relationships, human nature, how to live a good life - I'll take the Cicero's, Marcus Aurelius', Lao Tzu's, the greats of mankind any day.

The Rostra was the platform in ancient Rome where orators addressed the people. Read history's greatest ideas in Rostra; life is too short for anything else.
