The latest post on the new site is up. (Almost time to drop "new"...) "Sometimes, staying silent and “being the bigger person” feels less like moral fortitude and more like willingly swallowing a plate of nails." highroadpapers.com/highroad-has...

Despite the fact it took me almost an hour to center this, I'm enjoying getting back into building a #WordPress site... (And @briangardner.com's Powder theme rocks.) PS: It's not WordPress or the theme. It's me. HighRoadPapers.com

This is fun. And remarkably accurate (which can be terrifying to those concerned about AI's world takeover). "Like a curious grandpa who's discovered the internet—delightfully perplexed and simultaneously amused by it all." blueskyroast.com/roast/jay.life H/T bsky.app/profile/seos...

My new site, HighRoadPapers.com is live! Thanks to the visitors and subscribers who've stopped by. It's been a while since the writing bug has bitten me. I don't intend to tell you to always take the high road (in fact, there are times you shouldn't); I just want to share some thoughts and ideas.

In my past life as a Zillow employee, fending off vitriol spewed by brand haters, I adopted the "high road philosophy." About to launch a new website about how it can help you—in business and life. Sign up to get notified when launched. highroadpapers.com

Nifty little Bluesky feature. You can change your kinda awkward "@name.bsky.social" username and go with a domain name you own. Need to know how to add a DNS record, but it's not terribly complicated. How-to link in comments.

My friends in the real estate industry know I support the National Association of Realtors, but they aren't making it easy... As I was quoted in this article, "the optics couldn't be worse." www.realestatenews.com/2024/11/18/n...

I went to Twitter today to delete my account. Scrolling back through the memories made me a weepy mess. So many amazing people and fun times! Despite the fact that place is nothing but a shit show and a full-time job blocking asshats, I just couldn't pull the trigger. Yet. Gonna try this place.
