home-baked goods

recently, i've been off this whole ultra processed ting; and by lent the lord has given me the strength to give it up fully for 40 days- no budging! (sorry to get catholic on main) but, what i've realsied in my baked goods odyssey- approximately a 3 months doing all sorts of stuff and specifically a year with pancakes- is that home baked goods well, will require much skill, precision and time but hey- its this!its that; they are more filling than store sweeties. i had some great, not so good cake(freshly baked last night after an ardous tree hours) of about two small slices and it was just my proverbial 'tea' but i did! feel something entering my stomach . i'm sure with actual tea this would be a satiating snack for the in-between time. the time to sit down, have a peice of something sweet accompanied by a tea, friends has been a long tradition in england town but i never understood why because it was always empty, cruel calories that sat with us but now i have seen the light of sugar+flour=something beautiful (and morally righteous). i will sing the praises of baked goods from this moment on . im also recommending it for u pi.fyi lads 😜

Sweet baked treats

I am an Apple fritter guy through and through. Microwave for 30 seconds if you can. On tour if we walk into a gas station it’s hard to exit the place without one.

Never changing

My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌

Rejecting the Commodification of the Self

I’ve been thinking about how much of social media is centered around curating our self-image. When selfies first became popular, they were dismissed as vain and vapid—a critique often rooted in misogyny—but now, the way we craft our online selves feels more like creating monuments. We try to signal our individuality, hoping to be seen and understood, but ironically, I think this widens the gap between how others perceive us and who we really are. Instead of fostering connection, it can invite projection and misinterpretation—preconceived notions, prefab labels, and stereotypes. Worse, individuality has become branded and commodified, reducing our identities to products for others to consume. On most platforms, validation often comes from how well you can curate and present your image—selfies, aesthetic branding, and lifestyle content tend to dominate. High engagement is tied to visibility, not necessarily depth or substance. But I think spaces like PI.FYI show that there’s another way: where connection is built on shared ideas, tastes, and interests rather than surface-level content. It’s refreshing to be part of a community that values thoughts over optics. By sharing so few images of myself, I’ve found that it gives others room to focus on my ideas and voice. When I do share an image, it feels intentional—something that contributes to the story I want to tell rather than defining it. Sharing less allows me to express who I am beyond appearance. For women, especially, sharing less can be a radical act in a world where the default is to objectify ourselves. It resists the pressure to center appearance, focusing instead on what truly matters: our thoughts, voices, and authenticity. I’ve posted a handful of pictures of myself in 2,500 posts because I care more about showing who I am than how I look. In trying to be seen, are we making it harder for others to truly know us? It’s a question worth considering.
