Adrants Makes Fimoculous ‘Blogs of the Year’ List

I just had to look twice but yes, there it is…Adrants is actually considered by some to be worthy enough for inclusion on a “best of” list. Fimoculous has named Adrants to his top 30 “Blog of the Year” list. To be included on any list in the company of many other fine blogs such as Buzzmachine, Gawker, Metafilter, Kottke, Fleshbot and I Want Media is, to me, stunning and greatly appreciated. Even if the reason Adrants made the list was because in comparison to another blog, LucJam which “made marketing an undirty word in 2003…Adrants made sure that advertising stayed dirty.”

I’m 73 and I recently realized that almost everything I’ve called “my personality” for the last 40 years was actually a collection of survival responses that hardened into habits — the agreeableness, the efficiency, the emotional steadiness — and the question I’m sitting with now is whether there’s someone underneath all that architecture or whether the architecture is all there ever was

I’m 65 and I recently realized I can tell you everything about a person’s character within fifteen minutes of meeting them — not from what they say, but from these 9 micro-behaviors that happen before they’ve constructed their social presentation
