The winding roads of spiritual practice often cross paths with the more practical minded subcultures interested in practicalities. Doing a thing can be more enjoyable than documenting a thing but documenting turns out to be quite helpful in helping others learn to do things. As we knit together our individual experiences our capacity to measure […]

A well dressed, tall, friendly looking white gentleman tried to join me on an otherwise empty blue velvet couch that I had deliberately planted myself in the middle of to avoid socializing. All that was missing was a “closed for business” sign around my neck. I had attempted to tell him “no actually this seat […]
One of my mother’s great passions is children’s literature. I am an avid reader and credit my love for books to my mother’s knowledge of the space. She built a beautiful library to cover my needs from kindergarten to the upper grades that covers hundreds of foundational texts. It is the foundation of my moral, […]
Apologies that today’s post is going to be only partially organic human produced writing. I’m a tad more focused on cobbling together my current end game which feels promising.

Day 1905 and Run of Show
I have very particular traveling habits. I like things to be packed in cubes, labeled with contents and in a cascade of backpack, carry on and checked bags should something go awry. As I’m heading to our nation’s capital soon I am taking extra care with my “run of show“ as I’ll have more varieties […]
A viral essay was posted a few days ago by a Matt Schumer meant to help introduce the current state of artificial intelligence tools to people who do not work in technology. It’s a very compelling piece of writing (or maybe it’s just reading), which I believe is well received by normal people especially older […]
