How do all the Chinese takeout restaurants have the same menu? Is there some secret “American Chinese food” cookbook that everyone uses?
This is probably because everyone copies the success of another. And as a result, everyone expects all Chinese takeout to have the same dishes. It’s a cycle.

1. My kids still speak to me, but not much. I’m better than I was, but I was a crap parent. Poverty was part of it. Hooking up with the wrong men, just to have a little more income, or not to pay for child care. Bed chemical decisions. I got myself cleaned up, got out of debt, got rid of the guy who was harassing my boy, and acting like the girl (our kid together ) could do no wrong.
1. My wife and I went over a year without. It was rough. Neither one of us were communicating what we needed, and ended up resenting the other. The key factor here was communication. Once we opened up and acknowledged what the other needed, things have been much better all around. It’s not easy to fix, but like most problems, talking to the other person is the only way.

I spent eleven years driving other people’s toys around the most expensive stretch of ocean you can imagine, and the thing I miss most now is… having my own bed every night.
I didn’t stumble into superyachts by accident. I grew up on boats. My idea of a normal weekend as a kid was scraping barnacles, getting sunburned, and figuring out currents. Eventually I went to a maritime academy, got my licenses, and started out in the “real” merchant world—cargo ships, industrial work, steel hulls, rusty decks, long watches. It was honest, ugly, exhausting work.
1. Disgustingly: that I didn’t care if those around me were killed just as long as I got out alive. The knowledge of that being my thought process at the time has haunted me my entire life.
I was nineteen the first time something felt wrong. Not wrong like medical emergency wrong—more like a weird glitch in the system, something I couldn’t put my finger on. I’d be alone in my room and suddenly blurt out a word, usually something crude, like my brain had fired a spark I didn’t authorize. It wasn’t loud back then. It felt like something I could hide from the world, something that would go away if I ignored it.
It didn’t.

You think you’ve found a weakness in my fence line. Let me explain what you’re actually dealing with.
Our perimeter is two 14-foot fences topped with rolls of gleaming, triple-bladed razor wire—a design personally twisted and perfected by my razorwire specialist, Sergeant B. One roll on the top. Two flanking the sides. Eight rolls stacked down each fence line, forming a pyramid of steel blades from the ground all the way up.
Imagine the entire perimeter as the open jaws of a giant great white shark, each roll of wire a row of steel teeth.
I’ve been on Lupron for about a year and a half now. If you asked me ten years ago whether I could imagine a version of myself who hasn’t had an erection in over a year — and calls that fantastic — I would’ve laughed. Or panicked. But that’s where I am. And the strangest part is: it feels like peace.

1. “Understand that a pound or two of rotten meat only gives you a faint whiff of the smell of a full-grown corpse. The power of the smell is incredible. Personally, I’m not sure it’s describable. You want to gag when you’re fifty feet away. It can take years for the smell to leave a house. It just lingers in the background. Cars are totalled by the insurance company for the odor. And the guy driving the wrecker can’t drive fast enough to get away from the smell.
