My dad used to be a stand-up comic. When I was 13 and having a tough time w/life, his friend @pattonoswalt (also a comic, not famous yet) called me. I recall him saying "you won't even remember this shit" that seemed so horrible at the time, and "life gets better." He was right.

Just had a glimpse of perspective re: my country's magnitude on the human timeline. I have a lot of naΓ―vetΓ©, and learning about history is laying that bare. It's a bit uncomfortable.

Many organize 99% of their lives around the 1% of the time that other people are thinking about them, it's one of the most silently tragic asymmetries of life

Just found this 2005 newspaper clip, I had completely forgotten about it. "Camp Katrina" was actually the first website I ever built . . . it sort of set me on the path to becoming an e-com entrepreneur!
