Thank you for the iMac enthusiasm, you will be pleased (or horrified) to know that I gutted it and glued on a bunch of leaves and twigs. For art purposes

(explaining a body paragraph to my students) no one knows what to put in these. Just put one sentence after another and hope for the best I guess
It's a shame that the central arc of so many love stories is suffering, overcoming obstacles, with love itself as an afterthought at the end. The external world provides enough of that! The advice of the long married seems to always be to "marry somebody kind".
I think everyone’s lost the plot with dating tbh
You’re looking for home. That’s the only point of any of it. A flickering hearth, a bountiful table, a passion that will wax and wane as unalarmingly as the moon. Deciding to love a person ideally involves the same simple blend of logic + intuition that goes into choosing a place to live: you have a short list of what you absolutely need, some things that are nice to have, but mostly it comes down to if it feels immediately instinctively NICE.
When you’re paying attention to how you feel that recognition comes pretty quickly imo. People overcomplicate it a lot, mostly by trying to look to others to figure out what they should care about.
Started drafting a tweet about “vibes” as a test of who is privy to the same correlations as you and this Stanford experiment about tapping on wood and expecting others to hear music.
But I realized the TLDR is basically “your vibe attracts your tribe” so I’m just going to stop
Ironically, “best regards” is probably the #3 “regards” of email sign-offs. It scores directly underneath of “kind regards”, and both far below the intimate, apex, “warm regards”

Horrified to learn documentary films do not provide unfiltered access to objective truth. Have any documentary makers wrestled with this question
Went to the bathroom at Subway and the sink was so dirty I just used the paper towel and soap and gave it a quick wipe down myself. In this life we are all offered our small plots of soil, we must tend to them and grow them beautifully…
The salmon are running once again, I am pleased to announce that life is still resilient and miraculous
I think that any time you start to do mental math to figure out if you should treat someone with dignity or not you are engaging in the beginnings of evil. Just be kind
