I say this knowing I can post more on here but it's not easy seeing every post doing absolutely no numbers.

Threads feels noisier than BlueSky but one thing that contributes to it is the way the algorithm is democratic with what it boosts. BlueSky feels quieter and more discerning which I respect but I am frustrated by a lack of engagement on here.

Did they ever actually find the Loch Ness monster? If it died, did they ever find the body? The 90s kids deserve an answer!

The ultimate gift we can give ourself is a routine. Randomness is fun and fun is delightful. Routines, however, are peace and peace is joy. The more you're able to do the routines that make you better (because why else would we create them), the closer you get to the person you want to be.

I don't think the problem with young people is they think they know everything but rather, they think they know enough.

The older you get and the longer you work, the more you relate to Stanley from The Office.

Chef's gonna learn why we say "eat the rich" and not "the rich eat"

Before I ended my therapy session, my therapist shared with me what his mentor once told him: "It doesn't matter where you go, it matters what you do while you're there."

Scene from the movie "Love Hard" (Netflix)

It's been 3 years since it came out, and I think it's now safe to say "Love Hard" is a top 3 Christmas movie in the Netflix holiday movie pantheon.

I'm awake, I'm up, I'm blessed!

No bad moves today

Today's sermon focused on Luke 1:1-25. Here are the three takeaways our pastor gave us:

1. Embrace patience as His plans unfold
2. Seek Faith Over Understanding
3. Believe in God's promises despite the odds

The last point was salient. Heaven isn't Vegas and God doesn't play the odds

My NYC apartment isn't great for a Christmas tree so I used my mantle as a Christmas station. 🎄🎅🏾

I'm awake, I'm up, I'm blessed!

Today I found out a gallon of paint costs $95 and now I'm wondering why more of us don't have white walls.

Every podcast that man went on was hosted by a guy I didn't know anything about outside of Rogan. Then you look them up and they have 100-500K+ followers.

I see you can't edit your posts on here after they're published. Is this true @support.bsky.team and if so point me to a place where I can learn more about your policy with editing posts.

The only thing more fascinating than Kai Cenat's marathon stream
Is the exhaustive coverage I'm seeing of it from places like Complex. How are they on top of it? How long of a time is there between when a moment on the stream makes it to feeds like Complex?

Hi, I'm Jozen

I prefer to go by J.P. in online spaces

I'm a writer working in tech, living in Harlem.
