Hmm... Freecash just went from a tolerable 5% cashout fee to a 5% + $1 cash out fee. What's the point of cashing out now that half of it goes to not me?

It takes a wall of glass in cramped spaces to discover
the depth of field within a strong composition.
Still a dream within a dream, exposing yourself and
your subject to the moments that are tricky in low light,

Finally, it's the temperature outside where I can enjoy my hot coffee the most.

And it's a nice kick to get some afternoon writing out of the way.
