Yes, we have lost #thirdplaces. Yes there is a little too much surveillance, but we connect so much more now, deeply. We have the selves we wave like a #flag and the selves reserved for those we trust, it's #beautiful, it is #known.
Image is a top down view of the edge of a wooden counter with a tea latte on the top right and an iPad opened to the drawing procreate software on the bottom right.

Tonight’s conversation at Lowe’s was religion, ACA, and was it appropriate for the store to remove Sycamore Brewing from the shelves in light of recent news. You can still have discussions without in getting in yelling matches. #thirdplaces

I’ve been thinking a lot about third spaces recently—those places that exist outside of home and work where community really thrives.

What if the solution to strengthening democracy looks more like dive bar karaoke than deep intellectual debate?

Spent the day at the library today, working on my new book!
I also returned Cabaret (the movie version with Liza Minnelli) and picked up The Drowned World by J.G. Ballard. Has anyone here read it? I'm really looking forward to it!

Home is one place. Work is another. But it’s the third places that keep us human.
Still searching for mine. #thirdplacesmatter #thirdplaces #mindfulness
