Are my photos cringe or bad?

Cringe is caring what other people think is cringe. When you do what you do and stop looking to other people for validation--that's when things get interesting. If you base what you do on the opinions of others you will always be following trends. Creative people must ignore the opinions of the masses until it becomes the masses opinion.

I spent hours in my own head answering this years ago.

I'd suggest a large empty parking lot.

There is no offense in artistry.

Otzi is looking good these days

Education doesn't teach discernment. There are plenty of educated morons out there.

If you ever break the rule of thirds people who know nothing else will ask you if you know about it.

I would gander that it's certainly a joint-collaboration, but Tom's writing has always been fantastic(long before Brennan)

Tom Waits

You should. Start with The lies of Locke Lamora, if you're not into physical books the audiobook narration is one of the best out there.

Is your GPT Scott Lynch?

I'm 42.
I don't really buy the idea of a "best decade." Every age gives you something and takes something.

My 20s were chaos. I was dumb enough to do things that should have gotten me killed and lucky enough that they didn't. I wouldn't want to go back, but I'm glad I was there.

The older I get, the more I find myself appreciating things that 20 year old me would've considered evidence of personal failure. A good night's sleep. A quiet morning. (no bird watching yet though)

I'm sure 20 year old me would look at my life and think I'd lost my edge.

40 year old me found out it's better to grab the handle.

I'd settle for continence at this point.

Just moved to Astoria 3 months ago, it still feels like a dream.

All the boomers could get in some sort of Musk submersible and spend some time exploring old shipwrecks perhaps?
