I’m officially a leet writer. I’ve now been at this daily writing habit for so long that on day 1337 I am cool saying I’m absolutely elite. I have done the thing consistently and gained skills. Because everyday is practice here I am l33t. If this not-at-all humblebrag is confusing to you, let me explain […]
It’s possible exposure therapy has worked for me. My worst recurring nightmare always involves packing. And yet recently I’ve come to find packing to be a neutral to even positive activity. The dream has many forms. Sometimes it’s a permanent move, often it’s about rushing for some type of upcoming unexpected travel like a flight […]
Being engaged in American politicians is a thankless task. I do not at all begrudge people who tune out of our national politics entirely. After an assassination attempt, a resignation of a sitting president after a public pressure campaign and two political convention I am in no fine mood about the nation. My assumption is […]
I finally finished listening to the Joe Rogan podcast with Peter Thiel. I prefer reading and writing but I put it on at 1.5 speed while exercising and eventually powered through I usually prefer peace and quiet when I workout, but I thought it would be nice to catch up on popular culture.

I can’t get into the details but I learned today that there is an internal metric at an institution based around work I was personally responsible for achieving. Literally none of the credit has accrued to me because ultimately the thing didn’t really work but the downstream effects of the social credibility I brought really […]
You may recall the old aphorism about marriage. Men and women have very different goals for the institution and how it will or won’t change them. “Men marry women with the hope they will never change. Women marry men with the hope they will change. Invariably they are both disappointed” I don’t recall having any […]
I am hunkering down for a Friday evening at home. Batten down the hatches, secure the chickens in their coop, turn on the security system and lock the doors kiddos because the circus is here. Former President Donald Trump is hosting a rally in Bozeman Montana tonight and I would like to keep my distance […]
I’ve been engaging in more of American political discourse online as we head into the main campaign season. That’s probably a mistake. American is no country for old libertarians.
