  • It started off almost refreshing but the ads slowly (very slowly, over the span of weeks) moved to more… loosely defined messages. The imagery went from color to black and white. It came across as less of a questioning statement to more of a… I don’t even know. It induced that uncomfortable feeling you get when someone is fake-happy but aggressive about it.


  • My nickname has been “Crash” for most of my life because I’m a very accident-prone person. Over the years I’ve learned to slow down and move with purpose by taking a split second to think “what am I about to do here?” before taking action.

    I notice when I’m in a rush I tend to stumble and drop things a lot so I try to avoid that by planning ahead when I have time. This usually means getting seasonings out while the pan is still heating up, getting my things around for work the night before, or just generally preparing for what I know is coming.

    I’ve also learned to NOT stand up quickly near cabinets (I have scars from this lesson), push doors all the way open if I’m passing through (it’s always that one belt loop), and not leave things lying around in the middle of the floor (some dog toys are worse than legos). Just generally trying to be more aware of your surroundings.
