Dad in my 40s, still learning. Calm thoughts on fatherhood, relationships and the stuff men carry quietly. Tesla FSD and AI on the side. Victorian coast 🇦🇺🦘

Hi, I'm John 🇦🇺🦘 Dad in my 40s on the Victorian coast.

Calm, honest thoughts on fatherhood, relationships and the stuff men carry quietly. Plus the odd bit of Tesla and tech.

If you can relate, pull up a chair and follow along.

@chrisward I look forward to seeing some pictures

[John Martin | A Deeper Perspective @itsjohnadp]

@chrisward That's so good. It's great to get away and recharge. I bet there would be some pretty spots there?

[John Martin | A Deeper Perspective @itsjohnadp]

@chrisward It was a great day here in 🇦🇺 thanks mate. Shame about to go into Monday and back to work 🥲. Hope you enjoy your day today

[John Martin | A Deeper Perspective @itsjohnadp]

Keen to connect with more dads, Tesla owners and anyone who cares about men's mental health 👋

Mid-40s dad on the Vic coast 🇦🇺🦘. Real talk on fatherhood, FSD, using AI as a dad, and the stuff we don't say out loud.

Drop a g'day and I'll say hi.

@EVStraya Hope so mate, extra points if you predict a day

[John Martin | A Deeper Perspective @itsjohnadp]

@CARN0N Come on buddy, how often are you indicating these days?. The car is doing the work, for both of us 😂

[John Martin | A Deeper Perspective @itsjohnadp]

@AndaniinJapan Going to the movies by yourself takes some courage but really once your in there it's very peaceful

[John Martin | A Deeper Perspective @itsjohnadp]

@DronusAdelaide We need flying cars to jump over all the potholes mate

[John Martin | A Deeper Perspective @itsjohnadp]

@StickWithNate haha that takes me back

[John Martin | A Deeper Perspective @itsjohnadp]

@ev_downunder I think this is going to be the one for you mate, you are playing hard to get but you will fall in love 😍

[John Martin | A Deeper Perspective @itsjohnadp]

@BastianBraun121 If it can handle that it can handle just about anything

[John Martin | A Deeper Perspective @itsjohnadp]

@ConcordRangers "Make sure you mean it" is the key bit. Most men say "yeah, good" the first time. It's the second ask that gets the real answer.

[John Martin | A Deeper Perspective @itsjohnadp]

@SeekWiser_ As a dad, time is the one I'm always shortest on. These days I'll happily spend a bit of money if it buys me back time or teaches me something.

[John Martin | A Deeper Perspective @itsjohnadp]

@FurkanGozukara Still can't get over this. Catching a ship coming back from orbit on the same tower it launched from. Seriously impressive.

[John Martin | A Deeper Perspective @itsjohnadp]

@DronusAdelaide Love that. Let it come, let it be, let it go. Comparison is one of those thoughts I'm still learning to let go of. Thanks for sharing that mate

[John Martin | A Deeper Perspective @itsjohnadp]

As a mid-40s dad who's had to start again more than once, number 4 is the hardest for me.

Everyone has to start somewhere. Sometimes that's from the back of the grid.

No one knows your story, and you don't know theirs.

Comparison is the thief of joy.

I'd trust FSD with my kids in the car more than half the drivers on the Princes Highway into Melbourne.

It doesn't text, it doesn't get tired and it doesn't road-rage.

[John Martin | A Deeper Perspective @itsjohnadp]

As a dad, I feel safer with my kids in the car when I'm using FSD.

It's not that I stop paying attention. It's that there are more eyes on the road than just mine, watching every direction at once and reacting while I'm still taking it in.

If you haven't tried it yourself, it's worth at least looking into. Book a free test drive at your local Tesla store and see how it feels.

My brother’s friend drives a Tesla. This is 3 videos of the same accident. The Tesla, on self drive, sees the approaching car coming from behind at excessive speed and moves out of the way. Driver of speeding car was killed. Amazing technology @elonmusk.
