This morning, as I sipped my coffee and prepared to wrangle my inbox (and my spirit), I was reminded of a delicious little tweet from back in January 2022. Sam Altman, the AI guy with vision and caffeine-fueled ambition, had just introduced the world to ChatGPT. “Give it […]
You ever wake up on a Monday and just know in the pit of your stomach, the ache in your knees, the existential sigh before your first cup of coffee—that the week ahead is going to be long? Like…crawling-through-wet-cement long? That was me this week. Before I even […]
Let’s get one thing straight: a horse isn’t climbing a tree anytime soon. Not today, not tomorrow, not even if you bribe it with organic apples and serenade it with Taylor Swift’s latest album. A horse is built to gallop across fields, not swing from branches like a […]
Some people treat rest like it’s dessert. You only get it if you’ve eaten your vegetables, cleared your inbox, fixed your soul, walked the dog, and saved the world twice. And even then—maybe—you’re allowed to sit down. For ten minutes. As a treat. But let me be clear: […]

Sometimes, all you want at the end of a long day is a good whodunnit with just enough twists to make you furrow your brow and wonder if you could have pulled off the perfect murder (you know, hypothetically… with plausible deniability). So along came The Residence on […]
How have you adapted to the changes brought on by the Covid-19 pandemic? We supposedly live in a post-COVID world. But what does that even mean? Does it mean the pandemic is over? Not really. Does it mean we’ve all moved on? Definitely not. It mostly means that […]
