It is nice to live an unconventional life of my own design

drone shots look like shit. so does 4k/120hz video. a shaky, brief helicopter shot in an old movie or tv show still looks cool. the human brain does not like the crispness or smoothness of computers and robots. my guess is that we evolved this instinct during the Computer War of 25,000 BCE

Sometimes when people ask me why I’m wearing a mask I say I’m traveling or have some important thing soon and can’t afford to get sick and miss it and that’s pretty much always true but I think it would be nice if it were more normalized to just say “I don’t want to get sick” and leave it at that

God grant me the serotonin
to accept the things I cannot change;
dopamine to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know where to get each after-market

CUT TO
your humble hero, kai davis, frantically rewiring a spacecraft's engine while being pulled into a hostile gravity well
the air is full of oil, dust, and floating parts
in the distance, you hear the sound of a wrench banging against metal
suddenly, a spark flairs in the engine

Week 2 of trying to use Apple Music instead of Spotify
:(
It's like staying in an AirBnB where they've made the weirdest functionality decisions and you keep running into the furniture while trying to PAUSE THE GODDAMN MUSIC

It feels super goofy to still have to do chores, pay bills and send emails while <gestures at everything> is destroying my ability to focus and makes my job feel meaningless. But I always feel better after eating a high-protein meal, cleaning my home, and doing my laundry instead of doomscrolling.

When I turned 30 I had not yet written my first published book or my first published novel and did not know (or know of) some of the most important people in my life. I didn't know how much my life could still change, and did, after the age of 30. There is so much your life still yet to live.
Those who are 35+, what advice do you have for people just entering their 30s?

I love using Notion. But the amount of in-app thirst for me to try their AI features is just exhausting.
No, I don't want yet another app to auto-record my meetings and use AI to auto-assign tasks 🥱.
Just let me type text and blocks. Fade into background like a Good App should.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but go take the wash out and put it in the dryer.
Hope this helps someone (in addition to me).

This is stuck in my head - in a good way.
I’ve got a half dozen trans friends. They are some of the best people I know.
All of my friends are queer. *All* of them. I’m a cis het-passing guy. I am as queer as a $3 bisexual bill.
Know what I love about my queer and trans friends? Everything.

To my fellow cishet dudes: when we are quiet about supporting the trans community, the only voices anyone hears are the Charlie Kirks of the world. Don't let accusations of being "performative" or "virtue signaling" shut you up - that's their whole point. Our voices are needed now more than ever.

I will always stand with the entire LGBTQA+ community, and now our trans siblings need our help and support the most.
