My biggest regret in life is that I am not a physicist. I took physics in high school and almost did not pass the class, but I felt passionate about the subject. The poetry of mysterious concepts such as, “general relativity”, “wave particle duality”, and  “the 4th dimension”, filled my teenage imagination with wonder. To this day, when I feel bored/asleep in my life, I watch videos about black holes or string theory and it helps my mind re-open to the unknown. My favorite video of all time on YouTube is this one, where Carl Sagan, (the mister rogers of science), calmly and gleefully explains ways to visualize the 4th dimension. It made me realize that we do not just HAVE shadows, but we ARE shadows of a higher dimension. How exciting!

Same! I wasn’t the best in physics but it had something that tickled my brain. I just recently started reading more and I love it 🪐

The best $25 I spend every month. Literally pays for itself if you see one movie plus if I see a bad movie I don’t feel like I wasted money

I recently watched The Monkey for free at Chicago's Music Box Theatre — and even stuck around for Perkin's Q&A session. I have to say, it was the best movie-going experience I've ever had. An organist played the score with diabolical cymbals in the background — come on! And the movie was hilarious and equal parts gory!

I fear we've become socially paralysed online. Be perceived and do the perceiving. The internet that you want to live in starts with you.

I’m not sure why I thought I hated it. I’m sorry Mr oats, you’re actually a real one. So healthy, so filling, and very easy to make. High in protein for that quality energy. Attached an empty bowl that used to have oats.
