Twitter has been fracturing the last 4-6 months. I still struggle with figuring out where to invest my time. Do I focus on my broad interests (Twitter), the nerdy ones (Mastodon), or do I discover new audiences and interests (Spoutible being the latest one)?
The best things in life we don’t choose — they choose us. A great love, a great calling, a great illumination — they happen unto us, like light falling upon that which is lit. We have given a name to these unbidden greatnesses — genius, from the Latin for “spirit,” denoting the spirit of a universe we can only submit to but cannot govern.
— Maria Popova, The Marginalist
A nice reflection on genius, including quotes from Emerson and Twain.
I've been really enjoying the first two episodes of The Last of Us on HBO/Crave. I may have to rewatch them after listening to the latest episode of X-Ray Vision doing a recap of the episode. A lot more depth to the show than I thought.
