Finding balance in routine and falling into the steps of adulthood is tricky! I share a chunk of my experience here in my new post.
You made it, you own it
You always own your intellectual property, mailing list, and subscriber payments. With full editorial control and no gatekeepers, you can do the work you most believe in.
I refuse to be the kind of person who loses their mind over a delayed train or lets a spilled coffee set the tone for the whole day.
I want to be the one who stays composed, who sees the good even when things don’t go as planned. The kind of person who breathes through the little chaos and still finds beauty in how the day unfolds.
I want to be soft. I want to be steady.

I love you, gato, but this article is like complaining about the offensive strategy of the Washington Generals. They might look like the Globetrotters' opposition, but they're part of the farce, too.
Nobody is longing for the days of the 2000-2016 GOP.
not sure i follow the allusion.
the gingrich congress and CWA was 1994. by 2000, it starting falling apart as everyone panicked in to loose money and policy in the dotcom bust.
we never really recovered from that politically or fiscally.
Exactly. Newt and the Contract with America people are long gone, and the people who replaced them are the Washington Generals, existing only to make the Globetrotters look good by comparison. We don't have the option to return to 1994's GOP, only to the McCain/Romney 2000 GOP that everybody hated in the first place.
It's only that GOP if you let it be. Trump could not be controlled, so they had to force him out. They are still trying to do that, to stop MAGA, but so far, have not been able to - look at AZ, NV, etc. MAGA candidates are winning despite severe election fraud going on. If you aren't fully aware of the fraud, take a look at what is happening in NY State - https://rumble.com/v1kun2j-ny-citizens-audit-presents-weaponized-voter-rolls-epochtv-sept-20-22.html
Have you heard about the 2008 WA GOP state convention? The McCain folks walked out to try to deny us a quorum because we (Ron Paulers) wanted to add an anti-war plank to the party platform.
This was after pleading all weekend to "March Forward Together" -- once they got what they wanted (national delegates), they told us to fuck off.
That's the GOP.
