The Last Glow of Broadcast Television
Television once built the rhythm of American life.
The large television hearth is cooling. What we build from the ashes will decide if we still have a culture that holds together, or a patchwork of tribes warming themselves on separate screens.

The Rise of the Cozy Web
Finding Digital Coziness in an Overstimulating Online World
This 2023 post (bobhutchins.medium.com/the-rise-of-...) from @bobhutchins.bsky.social has me contemplating about most of my internet activities: what contributes to creating this cozy space for myself and others and what is just noise to distract me?

I used to think being a generalist was a weakness.
Too many interests. No single specialty.
Then I realized: connecting dots across fields makes me a better leader.
I don’t need to fit in one box.
I use my wide lens to solve problems others don’t see.

Generative AI Prompts aren’t magic spells. They’re process made visible.
If you can’t verbalize in detail the process and thinking around exactly what you want, don’t expect a machine to figure it out from thin air.

Before I reduce someone to just their flaws or my frustrations, may I take a moment to recognize their humanity—their struggles, their experiences, and the complexity that makes them more than just a problem in my eyes.
Feel free to say this with me today and remind yourself.

We are not robots buying products; we are humans chasing identities.
Know your audience. Their dreams, their fears, their hopes.
But FIRST, know yourself. Your perspective. Your values. Your purpose. That’s where genuine connection begins. A little self-awareness goes a long way. 🧠❤️

Not all tasks are created equal. AI is brilliant at handling the repetitive, the things that drain time but not creativity. That’s where we step in—to do the remarkable, the human work of empathy and meaning-making. But let’s be honest with ourselves about the difference.
Stay safe out there.

Instead of focusing on claiming ground or planting flags, a more meaningful approach is to set intentions and contribute to existing flows of knowledge, work, kindness, and human flourishing.

C.S. Lewis reminds us that perfect conditions never arrive. Life’s chaos—work, relationships, distractions—will always compete for our focus. Those who achieve the most embrace the discomfort and begin anyway.
What’s one thing you’ve been waiting to start?

Public service message of the day… It’s more than OK to fail. In accepting our mistakes,we find the path to genuine growth. In them, we also find connection with others.
Seeking to be liked, perfect, and extraordinary, has the opposite effect. We become disconnected, non-vulnerable, and lonely.

A Renaissance of the Humanities is coming
In the coming several years, the question will no longer be HOW to build new technologies but WHAT we want and how to articulate those possibilities.
The future isn't about HOW to build and create things—it's about WHAT we should build and why. It will be about what are the right questions and how should we think about them?
