    “At the same time, I’d encourage you to be honest with yourself about something you’ve shared throughout this conversation.” I read the advice, leaning in to what was being said. And then I leaned back. Wait a minute. This is ChatGPT I’m messaging. I had been struggling with a work issue and turned to the…

  • Why I scrolled

    Just a few quick scrolls through YouTube shorts is never just a few for me. It’s the place I turn to when I need to turn away from the mountain of overwhelming tasks. I seem to turn to it a lot. Instead of really enjoying the random video that I won’t even remember in the…

  • Bigger, not better

    The 2026 FIFA World Cup concluded yesterday, with Spain has victors. This year’s expanded 48 team format led to some truly excited games throughout the tournament. More teams was a good thing. However, the other ways they tried to expand the offering? Not so much. This year, as a nod to the fanfare around U.S.…

  • Is your moisturizer really the problem?

    I had this journey of trying to find the perfect moisturizer. Everything was a disappointment. But when even the expensive moisturizer that I once raved about failed me, I had to start looking elsewhere. I knew the answer wasn’t want I was putting on my skin. It was all about what was coming from within.…

  • Sol de Janeiro finally has something for the guys

    As I write this, there are just two 2026 FIFA World Cup matches to go before I have to go back to business as usual, no longer building my schedule around when games are on. I’m going to miss it, but what if a little bit of the fútbol magic stuck around? Like in a…

  • What every techie knows

    Tech support picked up to ask what the problem was. The apps weren’t talking to each other across devices. No matter what I tried, I couldn’t find a way to change the permissions or encourage them to work at all. After walking me through all the steps that I could use to remedy the problem,…

  • Sorry, I was late

    It was a picture of an adorable cub, hanging on to the screen door. In the background were woods. What you likely couldn’t see was the mama bear lurking, ready to attack anyone who came close to her cubs. The picture could have been a beautiful shot of what it’s like to live in a…

  • Avoiding the virus

    “Excuse me, do you have the [insert object] that’s all over my For You page?” The sales associate sighs and proceeds to locate the product. There will be 20 more people coming to look for the same product as well. They have to have it. Everyone, it seems, is driven by the trend cycle. Before,…

  • Just a little disparagement

    I watched a video by Olivia Olfactory. It was a brief storytime about her experience with an unnamed brand. She speaks about the work she did to develop videos for a contracted brief, only to later have the brand annul the contract on the grounds of a non-disparagement clause. It turns out that some time…

  • A new trend to consider

    Since the written word, humanity has sought to spread our ideas as far as possible. We ran messages to other villages, attached notes to birds, and finally figured out how to transmit ideas via wires and almost seemingly through the air. We will always yearn to communicate with one another, and with that we will…
