Strong Doses of Reality

  1. The Golden Bachelor is underway, and Gerry seems considerate and kind. Will he be able to maintain those qualities as the show progresses? I hope so, but either way, I’m in.

  2. Survivor is back, too, and though I haven’t watched the first episode yet, the show remains a mainstay in my viewing habits. I’ve seen every episode of every season, and after all this time (since the summer of 2000), it never gets old and reinforces a theory I’ve held firm to since my thirties—life is random, and luck is more important than skill.

  3. George Miller, the director of Mad Max: Fury Road, is awesome. So, too, is this George Miller.

  4. How well do you react to criticism? If you need improvement, let Zach Wilson be your role model.

  5. Just in time for the MLB playoffs, I have a genius idea for how to cut down on strikeouts in baseball.

  6. After a fun lunchtime conversation with my new work colleagues, I’m starting to consider the idea that we’re all living in a simulation, but… I still doubt it.
