Mindblown: a blog about philosophy.

After a season opening loss to Fresno State, I\’m no longer wishing for a perfect season for the Boilermakers.

Agonizing over what to write when you usually when I decide to write it it just flows. Have to convince myself to sit … and let the words flow.

Sometimes people do have abrasive personalities. And sometimes they just need you to show a little kindness so that we can all see what they have to bring to the table.

Small talk? Never have really excelled at it. I would rather have sips of bourbon or a good IPA and go deep in a conversation while learning something new and being challenged.

What a pleasant surprise: to be able to fully charge my electrical vehicle for free. Almost missed the level 2 charger because … well … they look a little janky.

Sometimes, the news you get isn’t all that good. Sometimes, you have to find the good in that bad news.

Sometimes, you have to go faster by slowing down. While I know this, I’m still learning how to incorporate this into my daily life.

Not shy about it at all. I’m a beer drinker; primarily of IPAs. But, doing a beer run on my electric bike is cathartic.
