Pink wall. The power does not lie in the answer. Inquire within.
Hannah and Her Sisters (1986) by Woody Allen
What if the worst is true? What if there is no God and you only go around once and that's it? Don't you wanna be part of the experience? You know, what the hell, it's not all a drag. And I'm thinking to myself, Jeez, I should stop ruining my life searching for answers I'm never gonna get and just enjoy it while it lasts. And after, who knows, I mean maybe there is something. Nobody really knows. I know maybe is a very slim reed to hang your whole life on, but that's the best we have. And then I started to sit back, and I actually began to enjoy myself.

i went to Catholic and Episcopalian schools growing up. God never reached me in the form of a paternal omnipotent, but my religious education showed me how to find god in human and non-human life.
Pope Leo XVI being from Chicago and speaking my own language hits real. being able to relate to the Pope and hear him talk about connectedness gives me hope that we we will find a path to peace and love. Jesus was a hippie too ☮︎

Cloudflare CEO is worried that we are unprepared for how AI is changing the landscape of the internet content economy. what does information distribution look like when AI companies are the only direct patrons for content (if they even pay at all), and everybody else is directly only paying for AI?

Dog Day Afternoon (1975) by Sidney Lumet
fabulous and gay, oddly earnest. i thoroughly enjoyed every bit of this bank robbery film (in which Al Pacino is truly a very beautiful man).

enabling someone else to their detriment to avoid our own suffering is not compassion. there is a boundary to be drawn on who is worth helping, but not helping them is to our own benefit, not an act of compassion towards them

what’s extraordinary about Reddit is people are allowed to dive into almost any obscure subject, really own it, and find other people who genuinely do too. it makes the platform more resistant to flattening. things become more homogenous when everything is on Main; they are a bit better when not only one centralized something is directly or indirectly the arbiter for a whole platform’s taste (regardless of whether susceptible to bad taste). you scale community (general) by scaling communities (localized).

“he who writes for fools always finds a large public”— being a relatively-interesting boring person does better* than being a relatively-boring interesting person. it always surprises me to observe socially these being two separate spectrums with rare overlap.
*for engagement but not for the soul

everything we have that we cherish could easily as well not have been the case

i thought peace was fragile because it can feel like everything is always hanging on a thread, and you never know what it is that might happen in the news, at your job, or at home that would rock your boat into flipping
i might have been thinking about it wrong. maybe fragility’s got nothing to do with it. peace is a constant practice for me whether i like it or not. it’s not the kind of thing i can hoard and bank away. it is here when i choose it, gone when i neglect to choose. it is hanging on a thread only to the extent i forget to keep willing it into presence. now, now, and now, and now…
