Abraham Kim last shared their writing needed time to think
There had been a service online that had been community funded that would archive the internet and what it would look like progressively. You could visit a site at a certain date and see what it would look like. For some reason Jack didn't believe the old Blue Corp sites....

Cheap tea and Long walks as reply to Re: Re: Friendship

Keni you're doing an amazing job of writing truthfully as GabrielGreco put.

Your account of University social life shows simply and beautifully the power of cheap yet priceless experiences. Intangibles rooted in the ordinary. Things that are seemingly accessible to everyone.

We spend so...

Highschool as fail-safe zone as reply to Friendship

Composition of my friendships match yours. Funny for me is that I probably would've never become close with my university friends had we met in high school instead.

Like you wrote, high school was a different environment. Funny and kind of sarcastic to a fault often. But it sort of allowed...

Focus Requests

I've been chatting with brianball again and a thing that comes with this is a flurry of ideas. I actually don't like calling his ideas feature requests since it's inaccurate to describe his ideas as requests. They're more accurately food for thought. But...

In the future

I had this vision a few years ago when I was in Montreal. The subway in Montreal felt more depressing than in Berlin. The weather. The lighting. The architecture. And together all of it the people. 

It wasn't uncommon for everybody to be looking at their phone during their ride. Up...

Letters to People
Beer; Coffee

I remember us taking so many walks. And I remember us drinking so much beer. Today I wouldn't even drink more than once a week. Back then I remember the sun setting on many Tuesdays and Wednesdays where I'd begin wondering whether you'd want to go for a beer. Don't...

200 Words a Day
Welcome Brian Ball

Glad to have brianball give Adagia a shot. He and I have had many conversations, some of them lasting over an hour, back when 200WAD was in it's heyday. He was pretty pivotal in sparking many of the community initiatives back then alongside...

Frodo

I remember on our walks together I would often cite the example of Frodo leaving The Shire when the question of how we were spending our time came up. Both of us were away from family most the year, this distance becoming more normalized with each passing month, and I...

Notes Following a Walk
College Ghost Towns

If you walk on Jordan Ave. south of campus, look north and you can see the university library from across town. The elevation of the terrain and no trees covering the path, seeing it will amaze you at how far a horizon can actually be. Usually I don't notice this...

Now that it's begun

Often we talk quantify macro issues in measures like total cost in GPD. When I think of that measure I immediately imagine disasters like COVID or the war on drugs or the mental health pandemic. One thing that saddens me is that I believe that the U.S is starting 2021...

Documenting Adagia
After Four Weeks

I'm happy to see we have a tiny crew of regulars here. I actually look forward to coming here to see what discourse has brewed while i was gone. It feels like a little corner of home* that I remember 200WAD feeling like.

I actually like that we are currently invite-only...
