Little Bits Of Light
Howdy folks…I turned 42 yesterday, which is weird and feels oldish and also it’s the number that Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy tells us is the answer to “life, the universe, and everything.” Rad.
SOooooooo if you want a way to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY OLD MAN TYLER, there are few better ways than joining our little community, and in doing so, help me keep the lights on here…It’s $5/month, if you can spare it!
Here’s the scoop, kids:
The Bear Season 2 - Holy shit, this show, this season, has just knocked my absolute socks off. I loved the first season, but this one just has so much more heart, so much it hurts, and I am captivated, I am in awe, and I am inspired in so many different ways. Plus, the music this season kicks ass. Just wow. Just wow.
40 Good Rules For Life - Ok, it ain’t 42 in honor of my birthday, but I’ll take it. These are just some very good rules for making your life better, and I found myself nodding to a lot of them. Any list that kicks off with this gem, is a keeper: “Improve and respect your opinion about yourself. It’s the only validation you need to design the life you want.”
95% Of The Universe Is A TOTAL Mystery - Science has always been a thing that really churns my brain noodles in the most pleasant, and often confusing ways. This article, this little fact, spins me right round baby. 95% of all there is that we have observed, is a complete and total mystery. We are infants, lost in the night, and I Love it. Read this one.
U.S. Urged To Release UFO Info - ANDDDDD on that note, some of that 95% is, with no doubt, some genuine ET and UFO stuff. I think the big wigs know more than they are sayin, and I’m not even a conspiracy guy. But things are getting interesting and very weird in the wide world of aliens. I think it’s probably time we lean in, and start paying a bit closer attention, no?
What To Put In Your Survival Kit - If those aliens DO come, and we ARE in a “War of the Worlds” situation, I suppose there are few better people than Bear Grylls to tell us what we should probably have on hand to stay alive. Here’s his thoughts on what we all need in our little survival kit. Listen kids, dude knows what’s up.
Throw Your Arms Around Me by Eddie Vedder - This song throws me RIGHT back to my senior year of high school summer. Holy shit does it ever. When it came up on The Bear it made me tear up big time. Ooof.
Typewriter Series Silliness - Yep, more poems read by this idiot. What else can I say? Click the first, scroll through to catch up.
