I believe that’s what Larry David calls “hate crimes against the bald community.”
Hey Matt! I have to keep saying it cuz it keeps being true, what an astonishing level of productivity and a wealth of many treasures you keep offering us!
I agree with Mike/ Myq, I really like and value the part about your mom. Snuck something pretty profound in there.
The lines about meeting you in the forest to discuss the complex non-conventional wisdom that plant medicine has taught you sounds a lot like Rumi. (In a great way, I'm not being snide or dismissive! Also White lotus relevant.)
((Amy Lou's character is reading Rumi in the latest episode's poolside chat.))
Your suggested "five ways I was productive today" list that federal employees should email Doge made me laugh out loud! Genuine extended chuckles. What a gift. Especially now.
Great writing!
(Also! Almost forgot! Great Toni Morrison wisdom!)
Wow, that's so kind of you. Truly appreciate you taking the time to write that up. Means a lot. And you/myq digging that line has me thinking maybe i need to try it onstage sometime. And btw my mom loved Rumi so feels full circle in a way. (Didn't know that about her reading poolside either.) Rock on. 🤘
i like this a lot: "My mom was paralyzed. Because of that, I never felt like I could complain much while growing up. I’ve spent my entire adult life trying to make up for lost time."
The reason I started my first punk band was Richard Hell and literally that line!

The last acceptable minority to insult.
White POTUS. ha ha. That's good. And yes, it's terrible to watch but impossible to look away.

Can you imagine five Goldbergs in the same group chat? That would make a fun TV series.
What if the Vooza team turned to running a politcal campaign? Would they use Signal? Just idle thoughts for the day.
Would def livestream the war room. Think of the content possibilities! 😜
