Clear understanding. Your foibles as “won’t fix” bugs. Local independent journalism. Countering social isolation. Hanging on to beliefs. Remember to be friendly. Think better. Your opinion.
Empathy required. Single data points are good/bad. Embrace your weird. Counting on miracles. Courtesy is the default. The greatest invention. Change is uncomfortable.
Your opinion. It’s a messy world. Groupthink is everywhere. Aging and letting go. Common sense isn’t. The importance of friends. The power of expectations. Understanding versus agreeing.
Your brain as a DDOS target. Use critical thinking, please. Feed yourself better content. Is it real, or a PR attempt? Convenience is weakening us. Speed versus accuracy. Keep your eyes on the near term prize.
Hiatus explained. People are awesome. Amazing serendipity. Taking a break. Even sucky meditation helps. Staying in touch. Choosing family.

Looking forward to look back. Pay attention to now. So something nice. Your cosmic smallness. The speed of change. Irrelevant skills. Serendipity is luck.
Complain, complain. Be reasonable! AI will make us better? Stillness can be fear. No one is thinking. The value of diverse interests and friends. The universe is talkative.
Reading takes effort. Put on your pants. Inspiration vs cynicism, fight! Fools never listen. Just do things. Imposing our standards on others. Simplification vs. complexity, fight!
Local significance. Taking time to think. Thinking practice. Imperfection done beats perfection never seen. What can you learn? Where do your opinions come from? Embracing the chaos.
