Sometimes I fantasize about disappearing.
Not dying.
Just logging off.
Getting a job no one cares about.
Growing tomatoes.
Writing poems in the margins of a notebook no one reads.
Not as a failure.
But as a kind of freedom.

It's hard to think of an action more damaging to American greatness, or insulting to American freedom, than cutting off cancer research to punish a university for failing to align politically with the current government.
(What feels like an) unpopular opinion: There is so much more to aging than weighted vests, magnesium, and a hundred grams of protein.
There is contentment in finally realizing who (and what) brings you peace. There is bravery in being okay with walking away from what no longer serves you. There is the acknowledgement that we bring enough to the table, just as we are - No faking or forcing required.
The weighted vest? Sure, it’s beneficial. But there is no vest heavy enough to compare to the weight (and worth) of mental peace.
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.
Stop clinging to the broken version of the person you love.
You weren’t called to fix them.
You were called to trust the God who can.
You don’t have to carry their healing. You just have to stop standing in the way of it.

ART-ificial
Have we reached the point where the artwork created by Artificial Intelligence [AI] has caught up with what humans can render? Because this - THIS - is kind of amazing. Sure, it’s a fanboy’s dream of Elon, but if you set aside the subject of the piece for a moment? The work itself is stunning.
I wonder what careers are going to be left by the time the AI evolution completes its first stage… and where that leaves us, as a people. We may go down as the first species in history which, in a fevered burst of childlike hubris, sprinted into its own extinction.
Sadly, no one will be left to make note of it…
