Orange is the new #racekit. Ready for half marathon #9; #4 with dad. Awake with excitement, and grateful. Good night. #nofilter.

☀️🏔🏎 7 year old me to me: sunshine, hills, and a fast car. #100DoPP d16 #nofilter.
Waking up for sunrises & catching sunsets, running sun soaked hills, and (still) driving an impractical but small & zippy roadster, apparently I’ve fulfilled my 2nd grader dreams (where I made this in class).
My mom found this and framed it, showing me today, and I vaguely remember making it, before I’d written my first line of code, played a video game, or perhaps even touched a digital device.

The inventor of the #hashtag rides MUNI like (most of) the rest of us. #yestergram #nofilter.
Or you never know when serendipity will cross your path with a fan or a friend who will recognize you and be more than willing to photograph you in public when you’re clearly deep in your device.
I spotted @chrismessina as he boarded and just quietly watched to see if he’d make eye contact or spot me. Maybe my black REBEL cap threw him off.
Then I pulled a classic “How to talk to a guy wearing AirPods*”, leaning forward and waving my hand in his downturned field of view until he cautiously glanced up, recognized me, and was surprised I was there the whole time.
Laughing and promptly putting his *pods back in their case, Chris and I caught up a bit (We’ve known each other ~12 years, co-founded BarCamp with four other friends, etc.), before he had to disembark, two stops before me.
I’ve run into friends on public transit (especially MUNI) so many times that I now try to always scan the entire train car, and stay alert when new people board, just for such improbabilities.
Public transit is a serendipity accelerant, and such serendipity is there for those that look for it.

2. Check your Facebook App Settings ( https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=applications ) and revoke (X) any apps you do not recognize or do not use.
See also https://indieweb.org/FreeMyOAuth if you want to double-check what other sites you may have given apps permission to act as you, and revoke any you are not using. Good idea to clean that up frequently.
