Parrot Makes Noise, Shark Spotted, White World Wrinkled

– We got to check out the Facebook redesign yesterday. There’s tabs and room for more ads (I’m seeing TWO now instead of just ONE!). Also, personal information is intuitively distributed so you don’t have to read everything from one long column. A lot of people are annoyed because it’s heavy with the social media vibe, but we’ll be used to it in, like, two weeks.

– For Parrot, Feed Company started a video campaign featuring a nightmarish kid on a driving lesson. “We’re done, we’re done! FUCK IT!” Heh.

– Shark sighting. Or not. By Mullen for the sharks and rays exhibit at NE Aquarium.

– New spot by BBH/NY and Partizan/LA for LG Steam Washer. It’s called “World of Steam” and takes place in a wrinkly fabric world. It’s weird, but not as weird as this was, and I guess sort of passively pleasant.

– Another Parrot thing: Parrot Not Quail. (I’m not really down to make a parrot the state bird, but we did make the Terminator governor.)

The loneliest part of changing your life isn’t losing people – it’s discovering that most of your relationships were only functional when you stayed predictable, and the moment you evolve you become unrecognizable to people who needed you to stay the same

Psychology says the reason some people become warmer and more approachable after 60 while others become harder isn’t random — it’s that grief either opens people or seals them, and the ones who let loss soften them instead of sharpen them develop a quality that can’t be faked, which is the visible evidence of someone who survived something and chose tenderness over armour

Nobody prepares you for the loneliness of being the last person alive who remembers your mother’s voice, your childhood kitchen, or the sound your father made when he laughed. You become the sole archive of a world that ended, and there’s no one left to verify that any of it happened.

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
