At the end of each year I make a "predictions" list for the next. I used to work in trend forecasting, but only share this on my tiny private account for fun. I love tracking patterns across pop culture, which is generally categorized as brain rot. I find pop culture to be a pure resource for tracking anthropological trends & patterns. This is a great hobby. I have favorite paparazzi pictures like when Hillary Duff was proposed to & immediately went in for what looked like a blow job. That's a great one. Jonah Hill holding his iced coffee lid as the actual cup of coffee falls to the ground, also great & relatable. Similarly to reality TV, having an appreciation for pop culture in general deserves more credit.

My life is a feedback loop of me one day thinking I’m too good for pop culture, and the next wondering what Troye Sivan would order at my local Chinese restaurant

"The gut" is our second brain & in constant communication with the brain we more commonly know & love. It produces the majority of our happy hormones like dopamine & serotonin. Specific strains of good bacteria build empathy. The healthier my gut is, the healthier my mind is, & the easier it becomes to literally trust my gut. Very cool.

I will argue that swimming is the best form of exercise. It's also the most beautiful form of leisure.

I often think about how early the Shazaam techonology came out in the scheme of cool apps & how mysterious the technology still is to me. How does it even work? Haven't googled it, but one of my juiciest pleasures in life is when I hear a car drive by playing a cool song, I quickly try to shazaam it, & it works! Have you ever made your friends sing into it & hope it guesses the right song?
