We want to build the most respected technology company in Canada”. Eric Diep, Co-Founder at A Thinking Ape
That quid pro quo was always clear: you surrender every last detail of your life and Facebook will improve your social and romantic prospects.
You can try to escape the story of your life, but you can’t. It happened… Heart broke. I knew you when you were young. Heart broke too. I will know you when we are old too. And maybe wise. I know you now. Your story. Mine isn’t the one I would have chosen in the beginning. But, I’ll take it. It is my story. It’s only mine. And, it’s not over. There’s time. There is time. There’s so much time.
Laura Dern in Enlightened. Brilliant series.

Reading non-fiction
looks like a quiet sport
but this is misleading
the reader’s mind is a ruckus of rebuttals
musings and interrogations
fantasies of integrating
the cleverest bits
into his next
conversation
it is fiction
that is the true repose
an act of patience
listening to the author scratch his pen
slowly
along the plot
trusting
that he has invited interesting people
into your flesh.
