Me, spending today holed up in a long debugging session and ignoring any significance to today, checking Farcaster notifs for the first time:
Farcasters, telling me happy birthday:

ohhh it’s your birthday? happy birthday cassie. please take a moment to face the friction that it involves, and bring significance to the importance of today. the world is a happier place because you exist. thank you

i know. and thats your default mode of action and relationship. thats why i was challenging you to face that friction and celebrate it with a new perspective. at least when you finish reading this. take a deep breath and say to yourself with a smile on your heart:

happy birthday cassie, thank you for being you

that’s all

Personally I don't celebrate my own, I do celebrate others' though because it has importance for them, but I can't find value for myself in making it one more solar revolution any more than I do making it one more earthly rotation
