11:59 PM ET "New Year's End" 🗽 Texas crisis in the HOR - Minnesota's crippling tactical gridlock in our HOR, or anything from Amy Goodman, Chris Norlund, Louis Rossman, or "The Majority Report" ad nauseum... 😞 An old friend from Queens scarred me with... "If only you knew how bad it really is..."

"The true measure of any society can be found in how it treats its most vulnerable members.” - Mahatma Gandhi Protect the children, feeble, ill, innocent and old. If you can only save yourself in this coming darkness, save yourself, but not in sin. 🫂 "Remorse is for the Dead..." 🤲 - Lamb of God

"I visit Ryōkan's grave, I wish for his comfort. I'd love to tell him of the 40 or more crows I saw today, and the story of a cruel poaching of an out-of-season buck lying dead in the field with bald eagles, hawks, and elder female crows that predate in my yard, and no longer caws, but shriek."

Goodbye, blue sky. Hello, darkness, my old friend...

A whiteboard from our Jan 2023 team retreat where I wrote down our goals, and the top one was “10k user signups.” We’re growing by 10k users every 10-15 minutes right now.

One of two final ultimate wishes, "freedom" (from structure) and time... 🤌 🇪🇪

International Cephalopod Awareness Days 🐙 (2024 - October 8th - 12th) 🦑 The week's celebrations include events in schools, aquariums, and coastal resorts. Each day of the week has a focus on a different topic... 🌊 8th - Today is "Octopus Day" 🐙 and focuses on the eight-armed species specifically.

September 16th, 1962 62 years ago today... 🗾 "Harakiri (切腹, "Seppuku") was released in Japan. In 1963, the film was submitted to the Cannes Film Festival in the competition category, and later won the "Special Jury Award." Now, 62 years later I proudly honor this masterpiece released in 1962. 🇯🇵

2 surgeries this week. Multiple labs and performative tests. New treatments and medications, and yet no root diagnosis. 222 days of open wounds, with overall healthy immune functions and lab work... But I'm happy to see Bluesky progress gracefully with its great features, tools and new users. 🫶

I don't speak Portuguese (Brazil) but this is what in geo-politics ala "Bob Dylan" is called a "Simple Twist of Fate." Cruelty, disinformation, egomania, fraud, hysteria, intolerance, and stupidity will stain the ephemeral legacy of X... Powerful as some are, they are human; human, all too human.

It’s a lot easier to get me to speak at a conference when it’s in a big redwood forest

No conclusions on why my open wounds aren’t healing, but thorough and obvious deductions have been documented, and yet a much more comprehensive medical evaluation unfortunately IS NOT covered on a public HMO. 🤷‍♂️ I have surgery again in a week for a minor sized, but seriously required graft.
