My tenth greatest tragedy? I committed to a bit in 2017. It’s been making decisions without me for years.

My twenty-fifth greatest tragedy? I tripped on a sidewalk crack near the old post office. I now cross the street there every time, so it thinks I’ve moved on.

Three people in white overalls with one in the middle showing those on either side something that is in front of them but not in the photograph. The two students are holding painters palettes and the setting is a studio classroom with marbled and grained panels in the background.
Really enjoyed this look behind the scenes at Brussels' École Van der Kelen-Logelain. The school, founded in 1892, teaches traditional decorative painting techniques including graining, marbling, and trompe l’oeil […]

My thirteenth greatest tragedy? I said ‘I think my joy is secondhand’ during a group check-in. Now it’s painted on a reclaimed surfboard in their mindfulness yurt, and the surfboard sends me emails.

[Residual World Record : Grave Slime]
"Is it truly alive, or just... remaining?"
Manifests in places where oblivion has become heavier than the soil.
A lingering entity that stays not out of will,
but because every reason to leave has vanished.

My twenty-first greatest tragedy? I still refill the Werther’s in the regional manager’s waiting room. I haven’t worked there since the rebrand, but the bowl acts relieved when I arrive.

My fifteenth greatest tragedy? I bought driving gloves that said ‘Ever Onward.’ They start to slide off whenever I try to downshift my bumper car, like they’d rather not be involved.

My thirty-ninth greatest tragedy? I told the captcha I was human. Now it sends me grids of bicycles at 3 a.m., and I get letters from the Department of Transportation thanking me for my vigilance.

My twentieth greatest tragedy? I was thanked sarcastically once. Now I say “you’re welcome” to empty rooms, just to stay even.

My fourteenth greatest tragedy? I live in a lighthouse on land. I have to rent fog machines to justify the light bulb bill.

My twelfth greatest tragedy? I offered comfort to someone who wasn’t sad. Now they cry around me out of politeness.

My twenty-third greatest tragedy? I signed for one Chewy box when the Rosens were in Tahoe. Now I log their kibble shipments in a spreadsheet labeled “Joint Timeline.”

My seventh greatest tragedy? I said goodbye, but we kept walking the same direction. I ducked into a bakery I didn’t need, and now I have a pastry opinion I can’t justify.

My third greatest tragedy? A weather app told me good morning; I replied “you too.” The forecasts have grown curt, as if it’s moved on.

My second greatest tragedy? Waving back at a mannequin once was my mistake. She still stares from a winter clearance window like she knows.

5 Things I Learned From a Paperclip That Dissolved Itself:
1. Integrity isn’t rigidity.
2. Loops hold, even when open.
3. Filing systems are emotional.
4. Rust is memory in disguise.
5. The important pages never need stapling.

The unreturned glance was not about the man. It was about the accumulated mornings that taught her not to expect one.

But it can’t replicate the process that makes those things meaningful.
It can amplify results.
It can’t tell the story of how you got there.

My long standing love for cool stationery found these for me. #FieldNotes
Small building on top of which is mounted a giant pale yellow doughnut lettered in big black block letters that say "Dales Donuts". The building is photographed from the opposite side of the road which is at an intersection with a slightly long exposure to show the sign clearly while passing traffic is slightly blurred.
“We love this doughnut. It is a landmark to us.” — Scott Fine, president of the Los Angeles Conservancy quoted in this sweet SF Gate piece about giant doughnut signs.
