I have been enjoying the mild weather of May. I’ve not had any extremes which is a sort of pleasant surprise. Climate and weather intersect poorly too often these days. I was explaining to a mutual how we’d settled on Montana to buy land and much of the calculation was about the pleasures of a […]

My husband was unreachable for the last 72 hours. So no one gets worried while I tell the story, I’ll note this was planned, nothing bad happened and he is back on the grid. This is the first time I’ve had had no way of getting word to Alex if I wanted to do so […]
Day 1207 and Joy of Preparing
Yesterday I wrote about how I’d come to enjoy the complicated game of speaking to others about yourself through appearance. I had been packing some travel bags and had a lot of different context switching to account for what I needed in my suitcase. Preparedness is somewhere between a neurosis and a hobby for myself […]
1196 and Reality Crazed
Just when I think shit cannot get any crazier reality absolutely fucking mogs me. “Surely” I say to myself. “It cannot get more weird, more brazen, more chaotic, more fucked up, more absolutely unreal.” And then it absolutely fucking does. Getting second passports is normal don’t you know? I guess us regular professional class moves […]
Day 1193 And Peak Performance
I was really struggling yesterday so I didn’t expect to jump right onto a flow state today. I went into town to eat a hamburger. “You may not like it but eating a burger in the back of a casino in a strip mall in Montana while reading an economics lecture by Deidre McCloskey is […]
I feel like I’ve got a decent grip on the directions that have captivated markets and where the next decade of opportunities will emerge. My long term confidence on managing through chaos remains the same. Focus on resilience and adaptability. I feel as if repeat myself constantly in the ways that I live this through […]
1185 and Hobby Horses
It’s a lovely Saturday in Montana. The sun is shining which helps cut the otherwise brisk gusts of wind. It just seemed like a day to enjoy life. Our dirt drive has finally dried out a bit so we went out for a walk to get some sun and check the potholes. My husband and […]
Day 1179 and All Good Seasons
While the Spring equinox has come to pass, we have had a couple late snowstorms this week in Montana. I am always wishing we’d get just a few more weeks of winter. It’s my favorite season here. Of course, there are no bad seasons to be had in the Gallatin Valley if your preference is […]
Day 1178 and Be Labor
Much of my work is very abstracted from the real world as I am a network state Silicon Disapora type. But I grew up with much more concrete labor in the real world. And I see how people can fear picking up skills if they haven’t had so much as a shop class. We keep […]
Day 1171 and Choosing Life
“Since you’ve chosen death I must choose another path” It was a shitpost. I posted an acceleration meme. I happily endorse the bumpy progress of material change and the myriad human lives that choose to grow. The responses to my shitpost show that it’s no longer a joke. I live in very clear reveled preferences […]
