Here are some items mentioned in the episode in case you're curious:
*The Coddling of the American Mind: How Good Intentions and Bad Ideas are Setting Up a Generation for Failure - https://jonathanhaidt.com/
*Nassim Taleb - https://www.fooledbyrandomness.com/
*“Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it.” – Charles R. Swindoll.
*"Sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me' is a stock response to verbal bullying in school playgrounds throughout the English-speaking world. It sounds a little antiquated these days and has no doubt been superseded by more streetwise comebacks.
The earliest citation of it that I can find is from an American periodical with a largely black audience, The Christian Recorder, March 1862:
Remember the old adage, 'Sticks and stones will break my bones, but words will never harm me'. True courage consists in doing what is right, despite the jeers and sneers of our companions.

*FOMO - Fear of Missing Out
FOBLO - Fear of Being Left Out
Show notes:
I am not in Gen Z: I don't know why I kept saying that lol
I am, instead, in Gen X: remember, I'm an old guy lol
I do understand that iGen and Gen Z are the same: sorry about that
Next week I'll be discussing Jordan Peterson's Rule 5.
