  • The antidote to drudgery
    Sep 28 2026

    Oct 9 2026

  • Phones face-down
    Oct 5 2026
    Lately, I’ve been putting down my phone more often. (And yes, I appreciate the irony that many of you are reading or listening to this on your phone—but stick with me…) Not only have I been putting down my phone more often, but I’ve been trying to not pick it up in the first place. […]
