    One of my biggest hang-ups in life, and I’m old enough that wisdom and experience should carry me through it. Hasn’t happened yet.

    Lots of platitudes address it, but platitudes are only true when viewed from the other side of things, not within the thick of it.


  • I never have enough time for games, but I loved this one so much that I made time.

    The visuals were amazing. The story was decent, and the gameplay kept me engaged.

    I especially liked the second island. Hallucinating on a tropical island while battling inner demons was a perfect intermission between acts.

    I have yet to fork out $80 for Yotei though (I want it, but that’s pretty steep for me). It seems most reviews say it’s got a lot going for it, but it’s just not Tsushima.






  • I was not suggesting that the encryption was compromised. I was suggesting that signal is being targeted.

    Likely, they are infiltrating Signal groups specifically. Not through breaking encryption, but still joining these groups BECAUSE of the encryption.

    The fact that these groups are using private encrypted messages are what piques the interest of the FBI in the first place. Signal is just the most popular and thus the most likely target.





  • This really hit home to me when I was a teenager and a colleague at work started talking about the famous demonstrations she attended. She was probably 60, but looked and acted 40, which made it especially jarring.

    A similar thing happened when I visited the Martin Luther King Jr national museum in Atlanta. They have pictures and items scattered throughout, and as we were browsing, an older man was nearby excitedly talking about each of the people in the exhibit on a personal level. As it turned out, he was friends with all of them. It made it feel bizarre, because we walked into a history museum, and left with it feeling too recent to be history.

    The final shock for me was when my mom casually mentioned that her elementary School was segregated! My siblings and I were shaken. She acted like it was something we should have already known, and maybe we should have already pieced that together when analyzing the time frames. The problem was that the Civil Rights movements in my mind were compartmentalized in the History section.
