Kathryn Schulz, as quoted by Maria Popova:
If we have goals and dreams and we want to do our best, and if we love people and we don’t want to hurt them or lose them, we should feel pain when things go wrong. The point isn’t to live without any regrets, the point is to not hate ourselves for…

– Rands In Repose: Please Learn to Write
I read a lot of blogs of all kinds - tech/web design, food, lifestyle, etc. - and so so so many people don’t know how to write. I don’t just mean they have poor grammar or can’t spell (although that comes into play), but that they have no...
Got a rando FB friend request from a ~70 year old whose likes include Mormonism and Fox News.
Yeah, pretty sure we’re not going to be friends.
The music editor is no longer located in the office next to mine, so I no longer feel shame in blasting top 40 hits from the early 2000s.
Bored.

Really great way to view Instagram photos
Good guy Septa
Most people, myself included, have shitty experiences on Septa - jerky employees, delayed services, smelly trains, etc. This morning though, I had 2 really nice employees take pity on me when the token machine ate my $5. They let me through for free then took tokens from other riders to reimburse me for what the machine ate.
Thanks Hakeem & other dude whose name I didn’t get!
Asians are massive fatasses

Am I supposed to eat The entire bowl of pho? Does anyone finish bibimbop? Because I’ve never done either.
Not a problem for this Asian. Pho? Kill it. Bibimbop? Kill it. Speaking of which, I could go for either of those.

8 1/2 years ago my friend Pete took his own life - his story mirrors the stories told by many of the comments of this article.
I think about him every single day. I catch the clock almost daily at 9:23, the anniversary of his death. I smiled, watching the Devils play the past week. I stop at the smell of cigar smoke.
I hate knowing that he thought he had nothing left. That his friends...

#7 in the state, pretty darn good.
My neck has been so tight & sore lately that it’s pulling my jaw out of alignment. Oy.
