  1. Four consecutive, stupidly-long days of heavy and demanding #brewery labour means that I am #rewarding myself with a hot bath (it’s Winter where I am) loaded with Epsom Salt. There’s also 3.75g of medicated brownie and Ibuprofen helping me to unwind along with some of our Whale Played Red IPA.

    Friends, this week has been ridiculously challenging. I really wish I had time to work on my #BonkWave or #NotBonkWave #FSOBW track.

  3. Sarah Longwell: "It’s important to understand that it isn’t only Trump who is deeply #corrupt. Every #Republican elected official who doesn’t say or do anything about Donald Trump's staggering corruption is corrupt. Every one of them sees this corruption and knows it’s wrong."

  5. "It’s harder than they tell you, and more rewarding than you imagine.” - Futurist Jim Carroll

    Most people want the future to be a smooth, linear progression; their career to follow the same path. And in that context, they want any business or career pivot to feel like a graceful turn on a dance floor.

    That will never be the case.

    But in my own voyage through several decades of being self-employed - a member of the global freelander economy -I’ve learned that it can often feel like a grueling, uphill climb in a windstorm. Running a business, reinventing your identity, and staying ahead of the curve is significantly harder than the books and the "gurus" ever tell you.

    But here is the secret: The struggle is what makes you succeed.

    If the path to the future were easy, everyone would be there already. The "difficulty" is actually a protective barrier that weeds out those who aren't fully committed. Throughout my career, the moments that felt the most difficult - the technical failures, the market shifts that wiped out old revenue streams, the long nights in the "lab" (Lesson **#16**) learning new things, were exactly the moments that were building the most value.

    After all, hardship is where your expertise is forged.

    When you realize that the struggle and difficulty are a mandatory part of the process, you stop trying to avoid it and start trying to master it. There's no doubt that carving out your own path and then pivoting when you need to is way harder than they tell you. It will exhaust you, challenge your certainty, and occasionally make you wonder why you didn't just take a "safe" job.

    But the rewards along the way? Incomparable. Overwhelming. Mind-bogglingly satisfying! The freedom of the "Infinite Pivot"?
    It’s worth more than you can imagine!

  14. My favourite part of the day is when I've got the kids to bed and then the kids decide they don't want that.

    So now it's 8pm. I've been on the go since 5am and my one year old has decided that 'nah, I'm okay'.

  16. @threetails EXACTLY!

    Also #Mainsteam #MassMedia must stop #rewarding #StochasticTerrorism with #airtime. youtube.com/watch?v=K3VQULyT39

    Not to mention #Cops must face #Accountability and #Consequences to the same if not FAR STRICTER AND HIGHER STANDARDS THAN THE AVERAGE CIVILIAN WOULD!

    If they can't exercise basic judgement of the situation nor trigger discipline, then they should not be allowed on duty and espechally not armed.

  17. @theserfstv One denied yet inconvenient truth is how #society and the #media handle said violence.

    By literally rewarding the perpertrator with attention, thus #rewarding them with #PorpagandaOfTheDeed!

  18. Got my first email from son’s new 1:1. School insists they aren’t using #ABA but everything they describe is about #behavior, #compliance, and #rewarding compliance. Am I just being too sensitive?

    Here’s a thought. Instead of pining about how he should #earn time on the playground, how about reinstating his full school schedule? I’m more interested in his having access to education than your bullshit behavior games. Or how about understanding him and building trust? #ActuallyAutistic
