enjoying it (48)
Alright, Stacey! This is pretty wild! The headline for my horoscope today is “enjoy it.” Actually, the full text is: “You’re worked so hard to arrive exactly where you are now. Enjoy it.“ I read the directive at 2 AM, when I was up with insomnia. It helped! Even though the command was my own…

new years (47)
Hi, Stacey– I have the opposite of writers’ block. I have way too much to say. And then nearly every day I sit down trying to undo one little string of the rats’ nest but rats’ nests famously do not work that way! Everything is everything. So I’m sitting on a pile of more half-finished…

girlbloggers (46)
Hi Stacey— What about this possibility? What if in the future there will be two kind of “people”: humans, who exist in the natural world and online, and also “AI Folks,” who only exist online.* And maybe both types of people even have equal rights. Like, theoretically, if I worked “remote” my team could be made up of humans…

nostalgic (45)
Been feeling nostalgic lately, Stacey. I don’t care to interrogate it too much. I think however anyone needs to recharge while doing The Work is good. Let the people have their treats, especially if the treats are low-waste. Like choosing to listen to Train’s weird song “Get To Me.” The lyrics were a particular delight…

she’ll know the way and then say she got the map from me (44)
Hi, Stacey– Trying something new, again, today. I opened up this lil blog and started writing to you because I’m at the cafe and may or may not be experiencing a sign from you right now! The sign in question: the song “Nothing New” by Taylor Swift, featuring Phoebe Bridgers is playing at the cafe.…

95 theses (43)
Hey, Stacey– I’ll be honest, I don’t feel like writing. I’m not sure why. Maybe because I’m not sure what the angle on this project is right now. But! I heard our song Friday. On the street corner, when Dern and I were en route to the taco shop. And then my horoscope yesterday said:…

when the cat’s away mouse Alice will play (42)
Hi, Stacey! I’ve been living this hedonistic artist life all week. Dern is out of town for a family emergency, which I am deeply infused with. I am half where he is in my mind all the time, wishing I could do more. I send flurries of supportive texts and remind him to eat and…

humanity is a projection (41)
Hi, Stacey! Last week Dern shared an interesting thought experiment with me, first conceived of by Camus. Camus asked, “if you sat in the audience and watched an actor perform the same role in the same play 100 times, would you say you personally know them?” Of course, logically, most people would say “no.” We…

just sayin’ “hey” (40)
Hi, Stacey– As promised from the title of this post, “hey.” It just occurred to me that I always write you kind of…wanting something. I am always explaining something to you or needing to vent to you or asking you to secretly solve climate crisis via the dark web. I’m not saying I won’t do…
