The media are not toys… they can be entrusted only to new artists, because they are art forms.

(McLuhan, 1954)



Being Led, Not Leading
Jun 19, 2025
I cleaned the bathtub and the wall next to it so I can caulk the tub soon. I did what I usually do—my routines: working on my online portfolio and reading “Nineteen Eighty-Four”—but today felt a bit different. I tried not to do those things as if I were being chased.

I studied StableCoin, browsed some social groups on Meetup, scheduled a few to attend, and took a walk after a nap following lunch. I want to live life at my own pace.

I shouldn’t take plans too seriously. Looking back, things have always moved forward regardless of my plans. Instead, I want to focus on direction. My current direction is to maintain my daily routines, continue designing books, and be present in some gatherings. I believe this direction will eventually lead me where I’m meant to go.
