Okay... but what does that have to do with grind vs friends?

    When did I say they were mutually exclusive? I specifically called out being a good neighbor.

    Friends are important. The subcontext of this meme is that they’re all hungry and just are bundled up in one spot, the meme reads essentially “fuck the grind just hole up with friends”. I’m pushing back on that push and trying to inspire drive, interest, and prosperity.

    Of course friends are important.

    Ah, I see, that makes sense. I just thought it was a total non sequitur.

    I guess I've gotten too used to Twitter where some accounts post total non sequitur motivational quote tweets under trending funny animal videos.
