#32: expensive lessons

hope we learn

hi

it’s been a while

i owe you an update

idk who reads this,

or who cares…

but

if you have love in your heart

thanks— genuinely <3

---

the past couple of weeks had many changes

i will get you up to speed and share some random thoughts

as usual

here we go

I left Egypt (sad) → transit in Qatar → landed in Houston → took a bus to Marfa

to get my van

not sure if I shared with you earlier but.. it was towed

i gave the keys to a friend

he was supposed to move it

he didn’t

so yeah— it got towed

i had to pay around $800 to recover it

~expensive lesson

lesson learned: don’t trust “the friend” with my keys again

thankfully it was recovered and moved to Valentine

behind a bar

after I arrived, Brent drove us to Valentine

where I got reunited with my van…

it wasn’t in the best shape because apparently

it was searched

(before it got towed)

and there was a sand storm in valentine

so I had to clean it up

then I drove it to Houston to park at a gated parking

because I had a flight from there SF

when I arrived at Houston, I visited a friend

I saw a rubix cube and felt like it was time to learn how to solve it

my current best time for solving it is 4:44

anyways, I am in sf now

it was quite a journey

i started a new job today—

and my friend Youssef got married today (missed it sadly)

remarkable day March 31st

new beginnings

the job is with an ai startup

funded by yc

but what about Tribbel?

to be continued…

but right now

a. I ran out of money

b. I learned that I need to learn more about startups and leadership

c. I needed to fix my routine— and wanted to have some structure

random thoughts and sentences

1.

lack of belonging is one of the biggest pains in life

we all want love and belonging

we want the people we love to think we are cool and love us back

lots of human suffering comes from a flaw in something related to this

2.

I fell off the wagon with my meditation habit after 55 days of meditating

I will start again

3.

there is a genocide happening in Palestine and it’s getting worse and worse

i feel unable to process most of the time

but I also feel really fucking pissed

fuck the unfairness and the double standards

how is it okay for israel to kill more then 17 thousand child in less than 2 years

how is it okay?

that’s approximately a child every 30 minutes

most are silent

more are turning their eyes away

out of sight out of mind

sorry that I’m disrupting your fragile perfect day

no for real

fuck the fear

it caught people from their necks

fuck meta and the censorship

we are part of the problem

we are now ignoring it and let it happen in the background

“what can I do? it’s out of my control! I’m too weak— I am too insignificant”

said billions of people…

our lack of unity, our learned helplessness, our complacency

free palestine
