“It's not what you don't know that gets you into trouble. It's what you do know that just ain't so.”
— Often attributed to Mark Twain
Hello from wherever you are
Yeah, that's me. You may be wondering what I'm doing on the border with North Korea. One simple reason: I wanted to be free.
Have a seat
You are not under attack.
It's going to be OK
It's not as bad as it seems.
First, take a look around you
Are you scared? Fear is a plague on the conscious.
You've got friends
For when ride or die is more than a TikTok trend.
You've got family
For when you need shelter.
And you've got yourself
You keep going and you don't give up.
You question reality sometimes, I get it
"Jack and I pledge $5 million to create a new generation of choreographers and puppeteers, cloons, video artists, and theatrical jugglers who will ask the world, What is art?" -- Liz Lemon, 30 Rock
OK, sure, sometimes you gotta vent to your parents
I'm the biologically gay son of my biologically gay father. Wanna join us for therapy?
Or ride a bike
Me and my trusty steed.
Or eat our feelings
Back when I could eat gluten, I had so shame. I still have no shame, it's just gluten free instead.
And then ride a bike again
If you're in Dubai and have a chance to ride a bike, you ride a bike.
But then we put on a brave face
The smile hides the fear
Reach for the future
I drove myself to graduation after driving buses during undergrad.
And don't let go
He took my hand in the middle of a crisis and didn't let go.
