So many wild takes about this election cycle. Two summers ago, when so many supporters of the president were crowing about never seeing the US w/Democrats in power again. I tried to explain, if you know ANYTHING about politics, you know the pendulum always swings back eventually.

Yes, this is a more severe correction than usual, but we were, from a logical pov, further from the center under Trump. Now the issue becomes reminding the new regime that the people of the US are happiest, as a whole, when we work together & live near the center.

Happy Scorpio season to the most misunderstood sign in the zodiac. The ones who feel everything and show almost nothing. The ones who remember. The ones who stay when it gets hard. This month is yours. Take up space.

Yesterday in Austin, Texas we ate at the Moonshine Grill. The Cathead Biscuits and the Chicken Fried Steak are to die for!

If you're ever in Round Rock Texas, I highly recommend The Salt Lick BBQ. Try the brisket!

It's an irrelevant metric. One sluts from the heart, not from the wallet.

This whole burning man culture of "I must find a bigger and better escape" is wild to me.

We should worry less about living our best lives in every single moment and just fking learn to be still. If you can master being comfortable in stillness within and around you, you can find peace. And when you find peace, you are open to happiness.

I just saw on social media where a content creator said "meditating to meet God is boring" & I have never been more sad for our world. I hate the belief that there must be intense happiness every moment in a person's life that permeates modern culture.

I think we don't read enough poetry. Normalize reading poetry outside of a classroom. Here's my pick for a poem for those of you who think poetry is for the birds, or those of you who like realistic poetry. poets.org/poem/deer-hit

Once upon a time, "just the two of us" was special in the English language. bbc.com/future/article/20260…

Wit, unker, git: The lost medieval pronouns of English intimacy

Tales of love and adventure from 1,000 years ago reveal a dazzling range of now-extinct English pronouns. They capture something unique about how people once thought about "two-ness".
