It really is, because after seeing this I called and had a chat with her and it was so impressive that I felt the urge to retweet and tell you that.

Just finished the book “What’s Our Problem” by Tim Urban.

America’s problem isn’t the left or the right. America’s problem is “low-rung”, “us vs them” thinking by our politicians, our media, our organizations, and our public.

The solution? Elevate our thinking.

✅ Avoid

I've always admired Wikipedia, which makes this report from Wikipedia's co-founder especially disappointing. Like so many other important institutions that had decades of hard-earned trust, Wikipedia has strayed from green/yellow to yellow/orange over the past few years.

I’m on a plane and the woman next to me is watching a show on her laptop and I was absentmindedly glancing over watching and she caught me and angled the laptop away from my eye line. Extremely awkward.

I needed to tell you but it's very risky because IMAGINE if she sees this.

Imagine if you were rushing someone to the hospital and stuck in this gridlock. Imagine if your wife were in labor.

I can't stand fake eclipse photos. It's amazing enough without any embellishment. This is my favorite shot from Monday, taken with my iPhone 15.

In 2017, I did something dumb. There was a total solar eclipse passing through the US, but I was in NY, far from the path. Was I really gonna get on a plane to see a cool thing for two minutes? Nah. I had shit to do.

The day came. I put my stupid glasses on and saw the sun
