We’re lucky in that regard! Have you ever been north of Duluth? If not, id highly recommend driving up there to at least Lutsen. It’s absolutely gorgeous. Awesome that you two can get together like that

RE: So Be It
You're right—it is what it is. Many people who complain are wishing it to be something it's not. As someone who has tried almost every social media platform imaginable I can honestly say Hive is still

That's great you got to spend some time with your old friend! The contracting circle of friends you speak of is exactly what happened to me. My oldest friend got remarried and moved to Washington D.C.

Single digits is extremely low! I think so many Satoshi-era whales cashing in right now is seriously playing with peoples' heads. Wow, that shows how oblivious the dealership is. I got those messages from

Writing certainly can be thankless sometimes, other times it can be the most rewarding thing imaginable. It sounds as if these feelings are shared amongst many. It can be comforting to know others feel

My God, what a horrendous experience with BMW. Unfortunately that kind of customer service (or lack of) seems to be becoming the norm. I just engaged in a three week back-and-forth with the contractor

This makes me want to do a proper road trip! I really hope to make that happen when the weather breaks.

If anything, the pre-Pandemic challenges have driven me more towards Hive. Even with falling token prices and lower engagement this platform far outshines any others I'm on.

"Become a master of meaning..." Hmm, I'll have to think about that today. Social media is getting worse and worse. I think the algorithms have been what has killed engagement. The platforms have

I think it's gotten to the point where, if we don't engage with AI, we will find ourselves in a permanent underclass. Maybe not exactly people towards the end of their careers now but the younger generations

That certainly has been my experience with lessons learned—they're easily forgotten. : ) I had no idea we were the same age. It's probably a fairly common thing GenX'ers are going through right now. Our

RE: In Search Of
Same here! What I miss most is just the unstructured, impromptu hang time of the pre-Pandemic days. I remember talking for hours and losing all sense of time.

I understand. It’s the very same way with us. We don’t really socialize with anyone anymore. People are either too busy, have moved on, or have become political extremists who just want to talk politics.

RE: The Children I Didn't Have
This is such a personal decision. I'm glad we live in a time where not having children is more accepted—although the traditional stay-at-home mom is becoming more popular with American conservatives. I

RE: Stargaze (An Original Poem)
I can't wait for the new season! They're saying mid-to-late this year for the release. The new Peaky Blinders movie is coming to Netflix in May. I'm pretty psyched about that too. It's been such a long
