I thought daily morning pages were curative, and they are.. but reading after pouring out is such a necessary follow up

We have slowly abandoned outdoor kitchens too. These are some of the most important spaces a home needs.

It’s the weekend, and for a generation that loves partying, a grill party in an outdoor kitchen could be very interesting and memorable. We need to bring them back into our homes, and even encourage them in rental apartments, since they keep the mess out of the indoor spaces.

long before hackathons in early 2000s, companies like AOL were running essay contests and giving away ipods. early internet companies were trying all kinds of things to create internet-native writers and communities to produce people fluent in software

i’d love to see @Substack sponsor an ai-era version of this that rewards writing which proves there's still value in thinking, researching and articulating yourself. perhaps even create it's own tradition

at the library. why is every new book called “a crown of knives and glass” or “the candlestick maker’s daughter” or “the last rose blooms at dusk” or “the fractured fragments of our souls”

@PatCarino @PelicanToMars w/ House Brew & The Vintage in BR, La. seem to have it down, but I think they transition from coffee to bar after a certain time

Really grateful to work remote. When I need inspo, libraries are my office. Coffee shops fit the bill when I crave familiar faces, chitchat, & ambient noise
Can sometimes wfh
But, think libraries would be great anchor points for globetrotting 🐎

There is a modern virus that says finding love early does not make sense because both people will inevitably change over time and become different versions of themselves. And yes, this is true for most people, especially when they fall in love carrying unexamined baggage, unstable identities, and no real capacity for devotion. But the point of love was never to preserve the exact version of someone you first met. Love is the willingness to keep growing toward each other through every self the other person becomes.

If you loved only the current image of a person, you will suffer the moment that image starts dissolving. If your love is attached merely to their present aesthetic, temperament, lifestyle, usefulness, or emotional availability, then every transformation will feel like betrayal. But if you love the person beneath all their temporary arrangements, you understand that sometimes change is the terrain through which love proves its seriousness.

People change, and so will you. The relationship only survives when both of you are made of something fundamentally similar, and beneath all surface-level opposition, difference, conflict, and individual becoming, there is some deeper sameness of blood, dust, instinct, value, soul, and direction.

Opposites may attract on the surface, but love cannot be sustained by polarity alone. Two people must recognise the same substance in each other. You can look different, think differently, move through the world differently, and still be made of the same hidden material. That is what allows love to survive time.

Because real love is finding someone who will always feel like your home just by their presence.

@AnnaLeptikon Was in the grocery & noticed a woman on the same aisle looked so sweet. I wanted a reason to talk to her so asked her opinion on a recipe I had. She approved the recipe & even flagged a clerk to help me find a particular ingredient but after that still recommended I ask ChatGPT
