Hipsters talk more than Boomers these days.

Abraham Kim last shared their writing change jar
It was strange keeping change from a customer.Β  Bloomingfoods wasn't a restaurant. there was no tipping. At first Drew thought about putting the extra cash into the register. Instead he pocketed it. Figured it would just be wasted if he put it into the register anyway. Although the store always...

email is a great method of communication. You send off your message and you kind of forget about it. No waiting around to see if the other person checks it and replies right away. You just go about your day.

At least that's how I use it. Maybe you do sit...

The Hare lost before the race began

Using your eyes to view the leanly muscled long limbs of The Hare , you'll say something like "that creature has all the tools to win the race."

The Hare's opponent isΒ  The Tortoise . And we all know who wins this race. Even though the former has all the tools...

Visitor I

I had a friend difficult to reach. No social media. A phone he never answered.

I didn't know his real name so I couldn't look up his address. My sole string to him was email .

Wouldn't go as far as to say heΒ liked email, but he used it. Never remember...

Flow

When I write I act a little too clever. Paint a version of myself that I want to project.

Then again if that is my facade what is the real me? Is there such a thing as real in this case?

Over the years I've knocked down many layers of facades to...

Writer who helps Shopify entrepreneurs

Funny in this world, with all this innovation and advancements of civilization , you still couldn't find somebody to string a few words together in a way that made the reader feel something. Often writers blame readers or social media , saying nobody's got the attention span anymore. And though...

The Lockeroom

It was before the match. An important one.

And the coach was giving a speech. A very inspirational one.

Many of the players had moist eyes. All of them had that stare. The kind of focus where you knew they weren't paying attention to anything else but what was going on there....

The Bill Collector II

Jobs were simpler back then. No high resolution trackingΒ  software . No way for the supervisor to see very little break you took.

This didn't mean he slacked off. Though people these days might call it that. But in his head he didn't.

He made every stop promptly and maintained a brisk...

People who complain

Everything is contagious. The best way to lose weight -- if that's what you want to do -- isn't an app or some podcast or diet. The best way is to only hang out with fit people. You'll be fit fast.

Of course this isn't practical. People value most their friendships...

And, not Or

The promise ofΒ  web 3.0 orΒ  web3 is cool. Basically it argues for a shift in the way our digital infrastructure is organized so that not only the investors/founders/creators have equity and profit from that infrastructure but also the users.

There's great power in the idea of feeling like a user...

Driving

During their drives, he spoke and she listened. It made sense this way.Β 

She never found ideas arise from within her. Sometimes he'd share something about himself, something sincere, and she would suddenly feel an urge to share something about herself.Β 

When she asked things about him she would reveal...
