The [Hidden] Real World

May 20th, 2020 I’ve spent weeks with this book, exploring the most vast multiverses, and the tiniest quantum worlds. I just finished it. And now I know everything. I’m *kidding*. But I am really proud of myself for reading an entire book about math and physics of every major kind. This is adult-level book-reading goalsContinue reading “The [Hidden] Real World”

It’s Science

May 14th, 2020 I’ve been really into science lately. Deep. I’m reading books about the universe (or universes?). I’ve learned so much about physics. General relativity, and quantum field theory, and string theory, and I’m finding a stunning symmetry to people. When we encounter a force we don’t understand, we have to figure out anContinue reading “It’s Science”

Circle Of Life

May 10th, 2020 When I was in 5th grade, I started my first business. I’ve always been a dreamer and a scribbler; that year, I started sketching full page portraits of Lion King characters based on (read: basically copied from) their trading cards. Some of the other kids saw me doodling these at my deskContinue reading “Circle Of Life”

Squirrel Life

April 30th, 2020 I’ve been asked about my obsession with squirrels, and I have to say: it’s everything. The aesthetic. The personality. The community. The particular and peculiar ways they create uncontrollable chaos in a world that demands control. But the biggest thing is their lesson. Every day, somewhere, a squirrel decides to cross aContinue reading “Squirrel Life”

Purple Rain

April 21st, 2020 Four years ago, something sad happened. Something crazy happened. Something amazing happened. Four years ago, Prince passed away. I miss that dude. Especially as I remember today. His fearless and peerless innovation. His boundless talent. His pancake-making skills (which I never had the pleasure of eating but I have HEARD, man). FourContinue reading “Purple Rain”

Sober Distancing

April 11th, 2020 This is a shout out to my beautiful peeps who are dealing with the same stuff that we’re all dealing with, but also doing it sober. We live in a world (and social media climate) that actively promotes and adamantly believes in the idea that to get through things — big thingsContinue reading “Sober Distancing”

A Nut is a Circle

April 2nd, 2020 I’m always saying it: the universe is too strange and too perfect to be random. I just had to go on a grocery store run, and there at Target, I ran into Eric. You would be easily excused if you don’t know who Eric is. But if you do know, you wouldContinue reading “A Nut is a Circle”

&

March 24th, 2020 The word “duly” means importantly. And I think it’s important that we remember or realize that people are made up of “and”s. Not blacks and whites and “or”s, but a spectrum of color, and the grays that exist between them. I spent a lot of time thinking about this post. I wantContinue reading “&”

Thank You.

March 17th, 2020 Weird world. I was waiting until I could write something thoughtful and meaningful about everything that has happened over the last few days, and then I realized that waiting for anything is stupid, so here we are. First of all: thank you. I say thank you a lot, and I mean itContinue reading “Thank You.”
