I wrote a book! 🎉
Feels amazing to share the lessons I learned on my self-taught coding journey.
Hope this helps a lot of people!

made my first balloon animal! I didn’t realize it would be so stressful. I thought it was going to pop at any moment

Someone asked my 3-year-old daughter, “What do you want to be when you grow up?”
She thought for a moment and said, “Kind.”
I don’t think I’ve ever heard a better answer to that question.
Nah. This describes the times I’ve been the most lonely and depressed. The happiest I’ve been is with babies and kids everywhere. Chaos, noise, taxing my energy and waking me up at night, but filling my life with love and joy at the same time. It requires everything I have and I wouldn’t have it any other way (although I do need quiet times and breaks when I can get them)

“Civilization is growing out of him like he is dirt and he doesn’t even notice”
Love that image
The father of seven has not finished a thought in four years. he is just moving. feeding. driving. wiping. his brain is soup and his back is finished and he has no opinions about civilization he is too tired for opinions. and meanwhile civilization is growing out of him like he is dirt and he doesnt even notice because there is milk on the floor again. the childfree man has read eleven books this year about the decline of the west and he is the decline and the books are the evidence and he will understand this at fifty eight in a room that is very clean and very quiet

Do not feel that suffering is an obstacle on the road to heaven; it can be the road itself.
