Excerpt from my Mind’s Notebook
“Even if you slay the dragon you will still miss my inextinguishable fire. Who brings a spectrum to your monochrome world, and comforting heat to frigid hearts? What I do is create art to extract high fiery passion. It’s uncultured to stop me. Reconsider where you plunge your blade, and I’ll reconsider where I release…
Heavy cast dish wand holder. Useful or Silly?
I’m looking for feedback on a product idea. The problem is holding these popular dish wands upright so the soap doesn’t leak out. Holders are available with suction cups or adhesive, but these don’t stay put long. My idea is to make a cast metal holder. Heavy enough that it’s mass keeps it in place.…
New App Feedback
Hey, so a while back I had an idea to start a film club (pretty basic). But, I’d run into some obvious issues like how do I serve people with different interests? There was no way to keep people interested in talking about a movie or show they didn’t care to watch. So, I came…

The Killing Fields Are Getting Wider, the World Is Getting Narrower
On Camden Road, on an ordinary afternoon that had no business becoming symbolic, a man appeared beside me as if the pavement had coughed him up. I did not see him approach. One moment there was traffic, damp stone, a bus sighing at the kerb, someone dragging a suitcase with one broken wheel; the next…
Would people really buy a flexible desk cable management system?
I used to think tangled desk cables were just my own laziness. But every time I change a monitor, charger, dock, or other device, the whole setup gets out of control again. So I’ve been thinking about a more flexible cable management system. Something like magnetic cable channels that can attach to different parts of…

Unique interpretations of the Seven Deadly Sins!
I’m currently writing a play where the 7 deadly sins are loosely represented by customers at a New York diner!

Do you write better when everything is organised or does chaos actually help?
Genuinely curious because I’ve heard both sides from serious writers. Some people swear by having everything in order before they write a single word. Notes filed, outline done, research in one place. Others say too much organization kills the spontaneity and they do their best work in controlled chaos. I’ve gone back and forth on…
Knowing what you know now, how would you start over in reselling today?
I’m curious to hear from people with real reselling experience. If you had to start from zero again today, with limited money and no customer base, what would you focus on first? Would you spend more time learning a niche, building relationships, sourcing inventory, or something else? Looking back, what advice would you give your…

White metal coat rack type thing from goodwill

Do founders care about testing AI support agents before they can issue refunds or credits?
I’m doing customer discovery for a B2B idea and would appreciate blunt founder/operator feedback. The problem I’m looking at: More companies are adding AI support agents that do more than answer questions. They may eventually issue refunds, apply credits, escalate tickets, close cases, or handle billing/verification workflows. My question: If you ran a SaaS, ecommerce,…

I have a wish to become a vagabond—a person with no home to return to, someone who travels across the world chasing something undefined. Not a dream exactly, because I don’t have a clear objective that demands such a journey, like an archaeologist searching for lost civilizations. What draws me instead is something quieter and…
