Mr. Stefan

And honestly? I don't even need to be super close to someone to spare 8 minutes.

Yea, I budget my time more carefully than I budget my money. I'm also a person who will make time to stay in community. I can make time for 8 minutes.

Because its not always about solving the problem right away, or getting a whole rant out. It's about feeling connected. I love that. That's who I am. I need my friends to be able to let me know I have an opportunity to keep them connected.

He says he and his friend implemented a system where when the friend needs support, instead of asking a nebulous question like "are you free" which is hard to answer sometimes, they say "do you have 8 mins" It's so effortless to find 8 mins for people who are important. I'm going to do this.

Saw a clip yesterday of a talk SImon SInek gave. In it, he was talking about an experience with a friend who needed some support, but didn't reach out.

He quoted a study that says that what people need is 8 mins of time from a friend to not feel alone.

I FELT that.

A sign of good taste lmao

I need to connect with someone who takes a lot of pictures. I have so few pictures of myself in my happiest moments because I never think to take a camera out. I’m the one who would rather stay in the moment and create the memory. Conundrum.

Darkest Dungeon 2 it is

Given that this was taken at work, that absolutely tracks

I was told I look serious in my avi. (probably true)

It's either that, or dimples. No inbetween.

The heart or the camcorder. Otherwise my brain breaks a little

I can't be the only one who sees it

Idk how I'm going to change the meaning of this -> 🫶🏾 in my head, but I have to figure out a way,

Please make this make sense

Why are the dogwalker cones more expensive than the standard 1¼ ones??

When you change your mind and need a space, I will make myself available. That's what I'm good at.

Don't run from it.

A good leader serves. That's their role

(If I have a lil now, will I be sober in time to drive to work? 🤔)

There's so much joy to be had in being of service to someone else

I know I miss becoming. Can't speak for anyone else. That was always the best part. Growing.

I guess it same thing, writ larger. People talk about the dates, and meet cutes. Rarely does anyone seem to be considering what it takes to be partnered with someone. Who we have to become.

Why is that?

People who spend a lot of time thinking about the wedding ceremony scare me. They never seem to give nearly as much thought to the marriage.

Welp. I’m up. G’morning.

Anybody know a good car detailer in NYC?

I just realized I forgot to put on spf this morning

Don't forget your sunscreen!

I need to learn German. Specifically so I can use it when I want to talk shit. That language was MADE for talking shit.

I don't even speak fluent German and I know this is calling something bullshit 😂

Any time I see a news story about AI "creating" some problem, it makes my inner ear itch

AI isn't creating shit. It's spitting out the same garbage that was put into it, and 100x the speed.
