Plus a couple lovely little parks along the river and easy access to multiple hiking trails that give you a scenic overlook of the Hudson Valley

Obviously, it is most known for the Dia Beacon: a fantastic 300,000 square ft modern and contemporary art museum opened in 2003 & set in a repurposed Nabisco factory with artwork by: Renée Green, Larry Bell, Senga Nengudi and Andy Warhol

I've been here for less than 24 hours, but I genuinely believe that Beacon might be one of the most underrated small towns in New York State

I honestly have no idea what comes next...

What horrors or delights await our species...

But I'm sure it's going to be a hell of a ride.

But I want to live...

... to seek the joy of life

... to find out what happens to this remarkable & brilliant & weird species of hominids I belong to

... and to find out what happens to all the strange & incredible creatures we get to share this beautiful planet with.

Sam Altman is really out here trying to play God with all of our lives (and the private sector is giving him tens of billions of dollars to accelerate OpenAI's march towards AGI to try to disrupt every single white collar job in the country)
