I have been tripping out lately about the problems of the world, many influenced by our American cousins1. I am fragile and this “stuff” affects me. I can’t help, but feel that most of what I am most passionate about is petty.
Contributing to free culture and open source takes the edge off, and helps me feel grounded. The other half, the greater half, is my Julia, family and friends (including all of my Automattic colleagues, local friends, and fellow contributors). I am very fortunate.
