OK. Episode 1 of Hi-Phi Nation's second season is basically privileged folk with problems I'd love to have (Takeaway: Do not spend time and money on advanced degrees. Lots of learnin' to be found for free! Develop a skill first that can actually help you, your family, your community and someday beyond … ) But,…

Hi Ivan, Did you give me a watch because you knew you didn't have much time left? A kind gesture made poignant because your time did run out. The story is a family member found you. I hope you passed in your sleep, free of fear and pain. Maybe you dreamt of setting environment variables.…

Little Ghostly Dirt Girl encourages you to continue to shout into the void. The message may not always make sense, but it is received in ways beyond your limited ability to prognosticate. All you need to do is remain faithful to what's percolating in your belly. So you're searching for Truth and Beauty? Truth is…
