Lately I've been having more conversations with older people. It's fascinating hearing stories about such a different world.

Love the spirit. Especially with the free time that comes with covid, I have no excuses not to make things and start projects

It's mind-boggling how quick and drastic this shift is happening in terms of the value and importance of college education.

A gap year sounds like one solution. But chances are many of these people would have figured out something that work for them (greater impact, for less money) that others will adopt and follow.

Much of the impact will be here to stay.

Uniqlo makes up 80%+ of my "wardrobe".

Minimalist design, good fitting, decent materials, at a very affordable price point.

And I'm also continually impressed by their work on new materials: heat tech, tight "Chino" pants that are stretchy that I can do parkour in.
