Apple Music randomly played an earnest contemporary country song this morning and...and it really resonated with me? Yes I've been living in a rural area for the past two years. No I won't be taking questions at this time.

Apropos of nothing, you might want to read my cover story on Mira Murati fastcompany.com/90850342/opena…
After ~12+ years on these platforms, it's never been more clear: The healthier I am, the less I want to touch social media. And being off social makes me even healthier. The worse I feel, the more I stay inside the loop. And the loop makes me feel even worse.
A formula for better writing: Curiosity minus Expectations (C - E) If you write with the expectation of a reward – the idea that this piece will get you something – it'll corrupt the output. The best writing is the genuine expression of personal research and curiosity.
@pamelacolloff I read this post—a well-written one, to be sure—and thought: this is something I do all the time; is it really so bad?
I wrote a fancy sentence today that I really liked until I realized it had a semi-colon, a colon, and em dashes. 🏆

opined that AI both knew more than us but is dumber than we are since it cannot think critically. She wrote, "I’m not worried about AI getting to where we are now. I’m much more worried about the possibility of us reverting to where AI is."
Tommy King became a full-time creator last year and says a tax expert he consulted was “dumbfounded” when he handed over receipts for $1,000 worth of outfits for his avatar in “Fortnite” and fees for making it perform dance moves. wsj.com/articles/tax-w… My latest for @WSJ
NEW: I spent dozens of hours with drivers in Los Angeles who deliver food from high-end restaurants. Because DoorDash and Uber often pay only a few dollars per trip, these drivers rely on large tips. But often, wealthy customers tip nothing at all. nytimes.com/2023/04/09/bus…

Gender affirming care saves lives. The person on the left was depressed and suicidal more often than I'd like to admit, but thanks to hormones and eventually surgery, getting to see myself become the woman I was supposed to be has made my life better and happier in every way.
Now that I’m no longer bound by my non-disparagement agreement I can talk about the GQ retreat, on which a coworker refused to let me try playing Pokémon Go because we were on a ferry and there were “rare water Pokémon” in the ocean.
I wrote about banned dating app users who believe they've been "revenge reported" by other users. Turns out being booted from a dating app can feel a lot like... a breakup thecut.com/article/dating…
