The one thing that really unites the American west, but in particular the Rocky Mountain West, is our independent streak. We take our rights seriously. We don’t like being told what to do by the government. I hope to contribute to this tradition in my own efforts as a citizen. I’m pleased to support a […]

Yesterday I wrote about the experience of my daily writing experiment rounding out its fifth year. It’s been a fun and often emotional journey that I find hard to fully capture. But I’ll attempt to list a few of my favorite posts of 2025 on the last day of year. Healthcare and Biohacking Day 1490 […]

Day 1587 and Wellderly
My husband’s expert testimony before Congress yesterday was a particularly exciting day even by my standards. I felt so drained today. My bar for excitement was set pretty high this spring. It has so far included impromptu drives to Istanbul, seeing our right to compute bill get signed into law, watching a founder we backed […]
I will be in our nation’s capital next week for a gathering called the Hill and Valley Forum. It’s been ongoing for a few years but I am not someone with a lot of exposure to Washington and wasn’t sure I should pitch myself when the forum describes itself as such. We host public discussions, […]
The tyranny of small differences can be the most vicious. I love vendettas in fashion and venture as they are connoisseurs of grievance. Small communities with insular structures simmer embittered for years. You always know where someone, who is otherwise quite close to you, has committed a venal sin which cannot be forgiven. But many […]
I’m coming up on the 5-year mark of writing every single day. It doesn’t feel like I’ve been at it that long, if I’m honest with myself. When you commit to doing a basic task as a daily habit, you don’t expect it to change your life. I’m not actually sure that writing every day […]
There has been such a bleak mood on the timelines as Americans are once again locked into a cycle of agitation and propaganda driven by hyper persuasion A/B testing of rage bate as tragedy turns on the opportunism machines. So I’d like to share bits and bobs of good news in my corner of the […]
I like to manage my days with buffers around my routines and obligations. I find tight schedules to be tiring and unhelpful as I manage my energy, pain, and workload. A packed calendar raises my cortisol. I believe I am easily stressed by shouldering too much, but I also fear I am on a downward […]
I sometimes think my best work is as a reply guy on Twitter. If the future of the Internet is to be made entirely of bots, I shall mourn the creative glory we will all lose. We will all be missing out on the bizarrely specific interplay between post and reply guy. The signal, node, […]

Day 1625 and Hot and Cold
I am older than my husband but only by enough (a year and change) to let me land middle aged jokes. We celebrated his birthday at Costco. We are spending Saturday grilling. We own a Subaru. I think the jig is up. I’ve been fighting to restore my body to “factory settings” since we made […]
