Instead of running after patience, relax and let it come to you. Loosen the tension in your body; open your concentration and allow your emotional energy to flow. Let the warm, soothing energy of patience arise within you and flow through your body easily and freely. This practice is the act of patience.
Good thing to remember that you can’t get patience by chasing after patience.
I do not understand
I understand the Republican Party in America is conservative.
I understand the Republican Party in America is socially conservative.
I understand the Republican Party in America is religious.
I understand the Republican Party in America is Christian.
What I do not understand is the Republican Party’s hatred of LGBTQ people and it’s quest to enact legislation designed to remove LGBTQ people from our society.
You don’t get to choose whether the pain marks you. But you get to decide what the marks mean.
Pretty damned good summary by annie mueller
New to me: people are mad at Amazon because they’ve got a bunch of ads on the page when you search for stuff … to buy.
I must be the odd man out to think it is normal for a store to show you ads.
I must be the odd man out to think that Amazon is a store, not a search engine.
If you like calendar’s and minimalism. I have a calendar for you.
I’ve bought the 2021, 2022, and preordered the 2023 on Kickstarter.

Another Pixel 7 Pro photo tool post.
This time: Magic Eraser.
Astounding. The person in the photo disappeared. No other edits were made. Just press ‘Magic Erase’ and let the ML take over.
Will definitely test this feature out more in the future.

Continuing to look at photos from Yellowstone this morning.
Here’s a heron hanging out.
Early Morning in Yellowstone
Throwback to the sunrise at [Swan Lake] in Yellowstone National Park.
We set out in the early morning with the intent to drive Lamar Valley, but the road was closed due to the flood in the summer. Instead we continued driving the loop around to Swan Lake.
We spend the morning making espresso in travel espresso machines and waiting for the sun to rise. We enjoyed the peace and quiet of the early morning.
I want to continue to make time for enjoying nature and peace and quiet.

How did Sports Betting get so big in the US? It seems like suddenly it’s everywhere.

Love when I order fountain pen ink and realize I already had the same color fountain pen ink I ordered, but it was hidden behind another color of fountain pen ink.
I might have too much ink. ✒️

But nobody’s figured out how to make ambient computing profitable.
Sorry, not sorry.
This is the way.
Finishing up importing my Evernote files to Notion this morning. Just in case I don’t like the direction Evernote heads in next year. I might take a look at Obsidian as well soon.

Switching to the Arc browser is hard.
No. It is not.
Not at all.
