Belive me, I’ve tried. I’m an asssitant scoutmaster for my kids troop, and we camp about monthly in the summer. So, I’ve got lots of phone free weekends behind me. I’m also got kids in sports too, so go to games and meets.

I’m taking steps but I still have work to do.

I wish I had your brain. I feel like unless I have a constant stream of information coming into my brain, I might go insane.

It’s awful, and unhealthy, and I’m trying to figure out how to escape this paranoid insanity, but it’s what I’ve got until I can figure out the fix. Reminds me, need to schedule my next therapist appointment.

I just have to say, I really enjoy your writing style. Fun project, great post!

It’s because we have the worst possible people to steward us though this transition that is being forced on us.

I don’t know. SI does actually have a certain ring to it. Stolen Intelligence.

Honestly, with the caliber of contractors this fucking clown selects, it will either tear itself down, or will need to be about 17 seconds after competion.

Living though history sucks. What is happening in the world is not ok, I have no idea what’s going to happen, but there will be somber lessons taught about all this in the future.

It was someone in a higher position than I, and I’m 4 months in to the role. So…

It’s old, but I taught myself to cook watching Good Eats. His stuff isn’t always the best, and some of his methods are out of date now. He makes you understand what you are doing though, not just showing recipes.

I’m re-watching through with my kiddo now as he learns to cook and it still holds up. He’s in middle school and just started a home cooking class and has been cooking circles around his classmates.
