I hate the over– and misuse of “unpopular opinion” but I might have one: social media can be used for just broadcasting, and is probably best used that way. “Conversation” and “engagement” was pushed by the owners so we stay on their apps for their profit. Byeee!

when my dad died on my birthday, in between feelings of dread, i joked to a few close friends that i can’t believe he made my day about him. maybe one person laughed. anyway my dad would’ve found it funny. and that’s why he’s a god among men.
Will Arnett was on Conan and told a story about how Conan dealt with the death of his parents by accusing Jason Bateman of killing them. It’s so funny.

Interesting re-upping of the Gen X concept. In theory, we are primed for theses times of being anti-corporation, anti-authoritarian in the face of late stage capitalism. But where are we and what have we been up to?

today i saw post that said, “being early to a truth is always socially punished.” and maybe that’s the case as we try to move away from a car-centric and capitalist life. but i also hold on to another idea: that “nothing is more powerful than an idea whose time has come.”

Yesterday on my way to the gym I hit 500 miles on my ebike. Before I got it, I basically never biked, so almost all of those trips would have been by car. It was ~40 degrees out and I was on my way to swim when I hit 500 miles. Absolutely life changing.
