Find a rock that looks like it could be a cave and then make cave paintings on them. Those are your ancestors :)

It’s a 64,000 year old painting made by Neanderthals on the wall of a cave, well before humans even came to Europe. Maybe they were having a good time before we arrived.
It looks like art that humans would go on to make much later: 20/30,000 years after in Indonesian and French caves, 10,000 years ago in a cave in Argentina (the most famous image of a hand-stenciled cave I know of), and 80 years ago in Manhattan when Abstract Expressionism broke.
Something is really beautiful about a hand painting another hand, tracing that second hand’s shape. It’s what babies learn how to do the first time they draw, it’s someone’s first self-portrait, first signature. In a cave it’s the highest or lowest of art, a mural on a church wall or graffiti in someone’s home. It’s the artists’ mark on their world reaching into ours, or self-incriminating fingerprints, or an entire species waving goodbye. The ultimate: I was here.
Also, I don’t think we have many other examples of non-human art.

Any man, any task. I’m sure there are other ways to strengthen your relationships with men but this is the easiest I’ve found and my method also gets a task done.
Ask your dad to build shelves, ask some guy on your street to mow your lawn, ask your friend to collect a parcel for you, ask your brother to hang a picture frame. So many tasks get done and so many men feel needed and appreciated. Could offer them a beer to make it transactional but it’s almost never necessary.

Brings my heart rate down by at least 30bpm. It’s so nice to instantly tap into an endless stream of reminders that there are beautiful things in the world and gorgeous people who don’t regret life.
