#meditation has been a part of my life for almost 30 years now, come and go. In the beginning it was just sitting still and counting.
Later I stumbled upon José Silva. There was this epiphany of the first #trance state. SOMETHING'S HAPPENING! *oscillates*
For a long time I thought, it had to be programmatic, visualisations, mantras; until I found out about Eckhard Tolle. Now Im back to mostly breathing. Or watching. Or hearing. Or being.
current readings are Dan Harris and Ethan Nichtern.
People say Twitter killed its API and developer ecosystem, but my team and I innovate on Twitter data every day. There are an incredible amount of insights you can derive from the data that platform makes available
@Danielhonigman @trishussey right back atcha

@pnathan fwiw, I sometimes find that the only thing we can do is contribute something positive to the world, and try to get momentum swinging in that direction.
@spara no, just enjoying the feeling of a new social network.
@spara @mvictoras thanks! it's going pretty darned well! Cheers to you

I may be 40, but i'm happy as a 4 year old eating ants on a log at my desk at work.

Good morning Mastadon! Wherever you are, whatever you're doing this Monday morning, remember the wise words of Scott Pruitt, new head of the EPA: "Our country can't run on pixie dust and hope, the last 8 years proved that...coal jobs are the best jobs, and the war on coal is over." Sorry if you're not working in a coal mine right now.

Seriously, every time someone starts talking right-wing shit, stop and talk to them
question the validity of their position, but in a way that displays true kindness
You can't expect to change them in a single conversation, but if you can plant seeds that make them think, you're helping
Got so distracted by Mastadon I'm late for a phone call
