It comforts me that the more things change, the more they stay the same. It’s cold in the winter and I sneeze in the spring. Everybody is either falling in love, trying to get out, or avoiding it. Some politician has a crazy idea that just might work and a lot act crazy. You read […]
They make it look so easy…
There’s an interesting phenomenon I’ve noticed that you probably have, too: People that are really good at something make it look easy. They make us think “Wow, that’s awesome. I could totally do that.” Which is part of the allure and magnetism of masters. And then we find out that things are rarely as easy as […]
The Cultural Superhighway
So many people doing so many things. Specialists, hyperspecialists, people who specialize in special specializations especially for you. Curated and tailored to your tastes, your shoulders, and your color scheme. There’s an audience for everything, and clients for everyone, as long as you can find them. There are specially trained audience-sniffing people and apps, too. […]
The Tire Showroom
Wigga wigga wigga goes the sound of the hydraulic drill, as my tire falls to the floor like a dress after a cocktail party. I can work from anywhere, and so I do. The work might be a client, a proposal, exercising literacy, or listening to Aphex Twin and getting schooled in what a bad […]

The kind where the moment swallows me whole. All the many kinds of fun that permeate externally, internally, and eternally. Making up […]
Why Bother: An Essay for the Future
Sometimes I wonder if I make a difference. In the enormity of humanity, the vast ether of 5,000 years of civilization and the millennia to come, what ripples can I really send out? In my quest to find my place in a world that will go on regardless of what I (or all of us […]

To All the Girls I’ve Loved Before…
Maybe it’s the Spring in the air, or it could be all the people complaining about their relationships, or smiling into each others’ mouths. I find my mind wandering towards all the girls I’ve loved, and how I loved them. The puppy love, with its giggles and bounciness. The unrequited love, and the way I […]
