Unlearn perfectionism by becoming mentally perfect. Hmm, could take a while.

Why do shopping malls build selfie traps into the walkways now? Why is everyone's backdrop on Zoom so aesthetic? Why are brilliant computer scientists spending their best years reinventing banking? Why are talented artists leaving their easels behind to draw pixel zombies?

That old Windows interface and the Netscape logo are like a portal to another universe.

I talk to God throughout the day and focus on listening. This includes some light Bible reading and expecting answers. Transparent, concise, empathic, respectful prayers seem to be answered with great enthusiasm. God is dad, but dad is also God. It is both odd and fantastic.

I was plagued by anxiety and negative thinking for twenty years. I could barely make eye contact with people. It wasn't until I started praying to God as best I understood him to be with as few words as possible, focusing on listening for the minutes and days to follow, that I was led to answers that cured everything in a matter of days.

The original point of CSS was to remove style code from HTML. This made a ton of sense twenty years ago. Web content was often saved directly to static files, so imagine having to update styles across hundreds of HTML files manually without VS Code.

Tailwind seems like it could be very useful if one's UI is strictly component based. Otherwise it seems like a portal back into writing HTML on Windows 98 using notepad. Either way, thankful for innovation and more options.

Do something for someone else that makes them know they're loved, appreciated or at the very least seen.

I'm convinced even one genuine comment can profoundly impact the course of history.
