@lilyraynyc ca you explain what “excessive comparison pages” mean? It a little unclear in the article. If there’s say 10 brands, would creating all possible brand vs brand permutations (AvB, AvC, AvD, etc) be excessive? If so, why? Thanks!

Seeing her in her bravest moment, facing her own worst nightmare, is something I will always cherish. Not the hardship, but the vision of how strong she is.

I am grateful, however, to have witnessed her dig deep inside and face fear head-on. I will always remember standing outside the fort with her. She was near bursting with emotion, flushed, teary, biting her lip, clenching her fists. Then she mustered her courage to walk back in.

BCT isn’t necessarily “hell” for everyone. But for her, returning to BCT in the coldest, darkest month of the year is her personal hell.

She has to finish Army Basic Training (BCT). I honestly did some research into what a life of AWOL would mean for us. Seems like a 50/50 shot that either life would be very different or not at all (at least until a cop pulls you over for a headlight and sees you have a warrant).

Last Tuesday was one of the hardest days I’ve ever faced, maybe the hardest, where instead of protecting my crying wife trembling with fear - I sent her back into her hell because there were no better options.

Haha, yes I’m trying. Trying to write more (putting it on Twitter is just a “let’s see what happens”). Hope you’re well, Tomek!

The man is in his eighties and still racing sailboats all the time, and golfing all the time, and dancing all the time, and fixing things on roofs or wherever - all the time. I’m going to call him today.

He has a wealth of experience in business, real estate, investing, sailing, general contracting/construction, staying active, dancing…

Whether or not that’s true, the math seems to check out (especially if you moved away from your parents’ house). It makes me think - I should see them more. It also makes me think it would be such a shame to waste the knowledge Grandpop clearly has and wants to give.

How many more times will I realistically get to speak to my grandfather? How much is enough? My brother said he read somewhere that “the average person only sees their parents like 40 times after the age of 30.”

🧵6/6 In each moment, each day, each week, I just need to focus on the most important thing.

🧵5/6 If she can hold her mind together and push through the tortures of BCT in the dead of winter to give us a better life, then I can hold my mind together and do what needs to be done on my side to give us a better life.

🧵4/6 It’s hard to focus when the back of my mind is fixated on Sara. So I keep saying - asking myself, reminding myself - “What’s the most important thing?”

🧵3/6 It’s 33 degrees Fahrenheit in Savannah, GA this morning and 29 degrees at Fort Jackson, SC - and I know she’s been awake and outside in the dark since 4:30 am. I know she can do it. I also know it is the hardest thing she has ever had to overcome.

🧵2/6 This has been my desperate mantra this morning, in hopes that it will help me snap out of this dazed longing, guilt, and worry I have from dropping Sara off at #Army Basic Combat Training (#BCT).

🧵1/6 What’s the most important thing. What’s the most important thing. What’s the most important thing.

There’s a collectable shop selling a “complete shadowless set” (not sure what shadowless means but it looks like the OG Pokémon) for $5000
