Serial hobbiest, wordiest introvert, full of questions. Lives in Chicago with wife, son, and many cats. Trying to find bright spots/good things happening while so much in my country is a nightmare of awfulness.
An inspiring speech to watch, I look forward to a smash cut of the parts I slept through/couldn’t listen to (work, etc.) And a hell of a way to smash a record. (25 hrs 4 minutes is the total I read.)
