March 23rd There is a part of me that feels always behind. Never fast enough. Never doing enough. Not producing enough. Not learning enough. Not being enough. It doesn’t actually make me do any more than if I didn’t feel it. It actually makes me less productive, more avoidant, more procrastination minded. Because it isn’t logical. It’s not rational. It is a part of me, younger, alone, trying to navigate the big world without safety or support. And when I make the space for that part of me I can flip that script. I can show up for that part of me that felt his needs didn’t matter. His safety didn’t matter. I can feel and connect. And we can go forward together.

Who has two thumbs and just drove a bunch of hours each way to go ride a bicycle for a little while in a hot (temperature-wise) cardiologist’s office with a bunch of things attached around his chest? 👍 this guy 👍 TLDR: the mold treatment medication was causing me some odd side effects after 3 months of taking it so paused it for a few weeks, weirdness went away, got the heart check today to make sure all is well before I go back to lower dosage of the meds plus back to climbing up mountainsides and regular scheduled weight training The Mrs is happy and relieved (& so am I, but I also wasn’t too worried as it seemed very correlated with my dosage being too high over time due to my body’s sub-normal detox ability and non-alcoholic fatty liver due to the aforementioned mold exposure/toxicity thing) Ok. Time for a shower, a bit of food, and then slumber because tomorrow is set to be a very fun day for building Empire Builder 😉

Many years ago I was a young Vancouver Canucks fan, and also had hair. And still a massive forehead 😂 I mean.. that's a lot of real estate.

Throwback 13 years ago to digital nomad era and places I've drank /yerbamate 🧉 (& slept) This little corner of East Vancouver, under a sprawling grapevine festooned covered back area, was attached to a house full of interesting people (including an old friend of mine) and a regular venue for local area musical evenings where I'd assist by tending the fire all night 🫡 During the warmer seasons I'd sleep on the couches out back, and during the colder ones I'd sleep on the floor in the living room, having (of course) both a thermarest inflatable sleeping pad, and a sleeping bag (as eternal residents of my backpack). Both longtime companions from my outdoor leadership/guiding days, along for my transition through Digital Nomad to Digital Marketing/Content Strategist career, with my eventual job as Guayaki Yerba Mate's 'Tribe Connecting Cebador' (aka Digital Marketing guy).

Family hike day and we went though a tiny little Swiss hamlet with a lil water trough that was doing double duty as a dog dampening and wine chilling (for locals) fridge lol This was after around an hour of uphill en route to an alpine fromagerie where we picked up some cheese from the little fridge outside and put some CHF into the honour box 9km hike roundtrip and I’m now over 500km hiked so far this year 🫡

I only had a handful of interactions with @estudioborges (1/2 of the wonderful musical duo @duodomusica that performed several times during /farcon-rome), but between a few brief chats, a great conversation as I was leaving the final evening event, him running fresh /yerbamate up to me at the end of my Empire Builder live demo on the main stage 🧉, and even handing me his guitar as he walked past the restaurant where a few of us had just finished dinner so I could do a little impromptu performance... ...I can tell we'd definitely be hanging out a lot more often if there weren't so much Atlantic Ocean between Europe and Argentina 😂 And definitely drinking an unreasonable amount of /yerbamate along the way 🧉 @farcaster connects people in wonderful ways, for which I'm thankful 🙏

So how'd I end up here? 🇦🇷 ⚽️ 🧉 🪽 Not with ChatGPT which refused to even make a Studio Ghibli version of the initial image I uploaded (a common on of Messi drinking yerba mate in bed with the FIFA World Cup Trophy) So... Grok had no issue one shotting the request. And then you can turn it into a video. And extend it with a diff prompt. And do so again. (Then I ran out of credits & it wants me to upgrade or wait till 6am tomorrow so.... I'll move on with my day 😂) But the point remains, that to a certain extent, the overzealous blocking of AI ability in one place, with one tool, likely only pushes people on towards the tools that will do it. Feels like something that is also potentialy @imgn coded.... (by @eggman.eth & @arfonzo!) While I could cast this into the /yerbamate channel, I'll instead cast it into my /gmyerb where I share my thoughts, curiosities, knowledge, & whimsies 🫡 See the original image + still frame attached in threaded cast below 🫡 And... we'll just have to wait and see if the yerba mate 🧉 brings Messi the wings on to one more victory 😉 What tools/flows do you use for your visual editing? How is AI helping bring your vision to life? I'm going to be adding more resources into the Empire Builder discord soon and would love to hear what you've found helpful! Drop your wisdom below and I'll be tipping UCI for my favourite comments! cc: @zaal @duodomusica @estudioborges @victoctero @adrienne @farcaster @gmfarcaster
