One positive today is *knock on wood* My phone service is still working in the back I assume the wifi … Continue reading $27.50/hr

Random Thought #51: iPad KIDS
I think the best example of Apple being a visionary company is remembering how everyone used to make fun of the iPad when it first came out because they couldn't imagine its use when they already had phones & computers, and yet, now the current crop of kids are called "iPad Kids." https://youtu.be/NKAm1OmdFfU?si=D12MyglczTXlMxgu https://youtu.be/A7seExq02H8?si=v0DmcaGjCnyUQy1X

Share a lesson you wish you had learned earlier in life. Imagining what I’ll be thinking in retrospect to my life story at the end, I believe my lesson will be one, among many others, which shows having all of the answers doesn’t necessarily mean knowing what to do. https://madmanrequiem.com/2023/03/18/untitled-note-7-october-2020i/ https://madmanrequiem.com/2024/01/22/lessons-found-n-forgotten-notes/ https://madmanrequiem.com/2024/01/22/untitled-poem-5-december-2021-learn-my-lessons/ https://madmanrequiem.com/2023/12/16/113-learn-patience-4/ https://madmanrequiem.com/2022/05/16/251-stupid-time/ https://madmanrequiem.com/2022/05/31/331-time-to-be-smart/ … Continue reading a LESSon 4 a MOREon
Random Thought #50: Do[n’t]
If I had to provide an example of the human condition, I think I'd pick one of those stories of people hitting the single tree in an empty field with their car, because the human condition is when we tell ourselves things like, "don't hit that tree," all our brain hears is, "hit that tree."

Random Thought #48: Sinister Sprain
For some reason, my left ankle is hurting even though I haven't done anything to it. It doesn't hurt terribly, though enough to restrict some movement. The kind of pain of a twisted ankle that I'd just play through during a soccer game, then take ibuprofen & ice it afterwards. This pain kinda reminds me … Continue reading Random Thought #48: Sinister Sprain

Random Thought #47: Bloody Band-Aid Brand
A common phrase I hear often associated with "tough love" is "ripping off the band-aid." Which, to be fair, is applicable a lot of the times. Sometimes trying to be too slow & gentle with someone ends up hurting them worse. But one problem is, cruel people will say "I was just ripping the band-aid … Continue reading Random Thought #47: Bloody Band-Aid Brand
