Two makes a trend, right? If so, kicking the shit out of diseases is no officially a trend. Not that the shit hasn’t been kicked out of diseases before but last week’s prostate cancer blob ass whipping from TBWAChiatDay and this week’s fingering of AIDS by acHe, Barcelona, Spain, I think we can safely say there’s a trend a foot.

Nonsense or can we expect to see an army of high-heeled hookers stomping holes in a colon cancer character or needle-wielding clowns poking holes in women’s boobs all in the name of eradicating breast cancer?

I spent forty years thinking that showing up and doing the bare minimum made me a good father and husband — and then at 65, I overheard my daughter tell her friend she loves me but doesn’t really like me, and I finally understood the difference

Research suggests the people society calls “wise” rarely experience it that way from the inside — what feels like wisdom to others often feels like exhaustion to the person carrying it, because knowing how things work doesn’t make them easier, it makes them clearer, and clarity without the power to change anything is its own kind of quiet suffering
