life is good

appreciation

Appreciation of the Day
Today, I want to take a moment to be grateful.
Grateful that I can still breathe, still learn, still try.
Thank you to this body that keeps moving even when it’s tired,
to this heart that keeps going even when it trembles.
And for all the little things that are often forgotten—the rising sun, the morning air,
and the kind people who show up, even if just for a moment.
Today may not be perfect,
but it’s still worth appreciating

Learning to be thankful for the beauty of life is something to be savored.

Astronomy Picture of the Day (38 Hours with the M81 Group)
From a garden on planet Earth, 38 hours of exposure with a camera and small telescope produced this cosmic photo of the M81 galaxy group. In fact, the group’s dominant galaxy M81 is near the center of the frame sporting grand spiral arms and a bright yellow core. Also known as Bode’s galaxy, M81 itself spans some 100,000 light-years.

friendly reminder that replies do matter

thoughtful (not AI-generated) replies are how i built my community and friendships here

early FC lore: for a long ling time, there was no quote cast, only recast and recasts were weighted less than replies because conversations are critical to building a social *network*

Imagine a cozy wooden cabin nestled in a snowy landscape. The snow blankets the roof and surrounding trees, creating a serene and picturesque scene. The warm glow from the windows contrasts with the cold, inviting you inside to a cozy, peaceful retreat. It's a perfect winter wonderland where you can relax, sip hot cocoa, and enjoy the beauty of nature. ❄️🏡✨

If you're a venture funded company/team building on top of Farcaster, could you reply below? Trying to get an overview, thank you :)

When is it appropriate to create a POST vs a GET?

I keep seeing APIs use a POST for seemingly no reason and it drives me crazy

Fitness

i did it. i went to the gym today. 🥲 

context: the last time i entered the gym was in october 2023 for a 30 min walk at my home gym in india so idk if it really counts?? but before that day the last time i went was in 2015. 

i’ve had a very difficult relationship with my body since i was a teen and more so with getting myself to go to the gym *alone*. executive dysfunction. task paralysis. social anxiety. insecurities. beaut cocktail.

when i started working out in 2013 i always went with my best friend and it was easy w him being around. we both were in the best shape of our lives. in 2016 life happened and i stopped going. in 2017, i hired a personal trainer who’d come home to help me workout. i got injured at work and my elbow + right arm have never been the same since. i took a break from working out bc of the injury.

today, 8 years later, i had to call my friend bc the moment i stepped on the treadmill i started freaking out. she had to talk me thru it like a 5y/o until i was ok.

A few thoughts on the wallet

1. We’re still testing it! Expect a bunch of rough edges. But we will fix and iterate. Starting with a ~1000 people and expanding from there. 

2. Goal is to make onchain actions reliable and smooth directly from the feed—frames and token links

3. There’s a bunch of new surface area to explore given all of the social context; but focused on getting the basics shipped and working well

4. Important — there’s no private key export yet; you don’t have to use the wallet if you don’t want to.

5. You can continue to use Rainbow or Coinbase Wallet via deeplinks (via MWP); there’s a preferred wallet toggle in settings.

6. It’s been a full team effort, but a big shout out to @blockheim @deodad @horsefacts.eth @gabrielayuso.eth and then everyone who has been giving feedback

I sat next to a nice girl on an airplane a few weeks ago - we had a 2 hour conversation about life, our boyfriends, etc. she had great energy - the kind that’s unobtrusive, honest, and open. Calgary was my layover but it was her final destination, so I thought I’d never see her again. 

She and her boyfriend are visiting the city next week and she asked if I wanted to meet up. I said yes. I’m excited!

Figured worth making my recent-ish policy explicit: if you're unnecessarily negative, I'm just going to unfollow you. I don't have time to spend fighting.

Criticism and feedback are welcome; but it's possible to provide both without unnecessary amounts of negativity.
