Maybe also that it was part of "The last frontier" and when our current culture reached it there was no further to go physically. so the trailblazing spirit just turned on itself at that point and started rippling backwards and into expansion into new fields of thought and science..

What is it that does it?

The climate?
The culture?
The fog?
The Sourdough?

Really think about it.. In the past few centuries allot of innovation has come from that area.

Sure there are many reasons and sure allot of population centers have innovation and invention.

But many global phenomenon in recent centuries have had links to San Francisco.

It's good to have a change of pace and catch up on a few projects and/or have some other experiences. So never hesitate to take what time is needed for those.

A good video about the topic:

You both have been awesome together. Glad the moment to finally make it fully official happened.

We have to first begin with ourselves though which is a large hurdle.. it requires us to not entirely be the main character in the story. as to truly create joy requires a community. As unless reflected in community Joy is just a fleeting spark.

The Truth is:
the only way to change the story of the world is to make one that many others can get behind.

A story of fear and hate of the other is an easy one to make as it calls to base needs survival.

A story of joy and hope though that includes all is much harder.. but still possible.

okay apparently I was not in "layout view"

And yet.. the world is so F* ing toxic right now I really shouldn't say it here at the moment.. I'll hint it's about Self-actualization and even then might be saying too much.

Nah.. I'm just "one of those deaf-mutes" no threat to anyone.

And yeah just making references to random sci-fi now..
