That shifts when you're writing a book and all that stuff, but that's basically the rhythm of my life for the past many years.
And I find that it is personally useful to pause the past and engage with the lives of people that have beginnings and middles and ends.
I find it useful to remember that we're all going to die, that our time is short.
I find it useful to...
you know, to see what someone was able to make of their time, or to like see that like the ways in which their life was constricted in a way that mine might not be.
Both to, not just to feel sort of lucky, it's more just to like be snapped into presence in the present.
That like our present moment is historical.
That the lives that we get to live, like the lives that the people before us,
are contingent upon the technologies that we use, are contingent upon the cultural mores, like the jobs that are available, whether you're able to afford a home.
Who might be attracted to us?
The most intimate of things, like what we smell like, what is in the air we breathe,
are historical.
And I find that over and over again, it is useful, not like partially in sort of like a YOLO way, like, let me just remember that time is short, but also just like to kind of turn on this kind of like empathy engine and really like, you know, try to put myself in someone else's shoes or to wear my own shoes and walk around in a different time and just kind of look around and see what's changing on.
I find it like kind of like it makes me, like helps me be a better citizen.
Like it reminds me of just how quick
quickly things can change sometimes or with how much effort it takes to change them.
And, you know, it also just on a simple level, like reminds me to be a sort of like more patient human being, you know, and more empathetic human being.
I have not.
I think you might be overestimating how big a celebrity he is or how big the show is.
If one were to listen to the show from the beginning, you'll see that the register of my voice goes down.
