Timeline refresh.
Death Valley, Brought to Life | February 2026
Most people think of Death Valley as barren, dry, and inhospitable. I passed through on February 16–18, 2026, during a storm and saw something else entirely: water across Badwater Basin, 50 mph winds ripping through the desert, light breaking through the clouds, dunes being reshaped in real time, painted hills glowing between weather systems, and wildflowers pushing through the desert floor.
A Photographer’s Guide to the Galaxy: Death Valley edition drops tomorrow.

Every sat saved is a small act of rebellion. A vote against a system that debases your money, steals your time, and funds the perpetual war machine.

I launched a new project: A Photographer’s Guide to the Galaxy. 
One location per post, fully scouted. Honest ratings, real access notes, best light, what gear actually matters, and where to stay and eat.
No fluff, no sponsored content. Just signal.
First guide is free: Crowley Lake Columns.
Second guide just went live: Yosemite Valley.

Ending the year with a little film I made in the greatest place on earth.
Filmed across multiple November visits in 2024 and 2025, this film brings together nearly 10,000 still images captured inside Yosemite National Park.
When the world slows, and the year lets go.

In one year, health insurance premiums have tripled for most people. Groceries have doubled. Buying a home moved even further out of reach.
And yet, people don’t seem to care that there’s a solution. They don’t question the fundamental system they grew up with. Living in the Matrix mentally feels safer. Questioning it feels scary.

I miss when Bitcoin was about changing the world. I understand the speculative attack is part of adoption/moving from fiat to a bitcoinized world. But most of these bitcoin treasury companies are doing financial engineering instead of providing actual value to the world (no, I don’t think financial engineering is value creation). Bitcoin incentivizes work and value creation. Fiat distorts value and rewards those closest to the money printer. These treasury companies are close to the money printer. Taking free money and turning it into value without actually doing any work.
Does anyone actually feel good about themselves working for a bitcoin treasury company? It feels…ick to me. There are better ways to advance Bitcoin and Bitcoin education without jumping on the treasury bandwagon.

In my lifetime, I’ve had over a hundred teachers. Out of those hundred, only a few were great. Some were well-meaning, but most were trapped in a system that rewards memorization, conformity, and yesterday’s thinking. Only one taught me skills that actually prepared me for the future.
I remember a math teacher in 2005 telling us to memorize formulas because “you won’t always have a calculator in your pocket.” Three years later, we all started carrying supercomputers in our pockets. That moment sums up my entire education. Outdated. Reactive. A wasted opportunity.
We were taught how to memorize, not how to think. No questioning. No critical thought. No sense of how any of it would apply to our future. Take notes, memorize, take the test. Next. Then it was gone. Zero connection to the material. Zero reason to care.
The problem isn’t that teachers don’t care. Most are thrown into impossible circumstances. One person is asked to teach twenty or thirty unique minds, each with different strengths, weaknesses, and learning styles. It can be done, but it’s rare. The truth is our education model was designed for an industrial age that no longer exists.
The Cost of Stagnation
The results speak for themselves. Studies show that more than half of American adults read below a sixth grade level. That means millions of people struggle to engage with complex information, weigh nuance, or think critically about the world around them. If education is supposed to prepare us for life, we have to ask: life when? The world of the past, or the one we’re walking into?
Education should prepare us for the future. Yet academia often prepares students perfectly for yesterday. When I earned my Personal Trainer certification earlier this year (2025), I saw how outdated the material was. Nutrition guidelines, exercise science, even how to measure blood pressure were all a decade behind the curve. The same thing happened in college, where we were trained on outdated tape cameras and editing methods that had already been replaced by new technology. My first job out of school didn’t even exist when I chose my major. How can students plan their futures when the system can’t even see six months ahead? What students really need are timeless skills: critical thinking, adaptability, creativity, and problem-solving. Skills that prepare them for any future, not just the past.
That’s why AI matters. Personalized, adaptive, and infinitely scalable, it can do what a single teacher in a crowded classroom never could. The truth is most traditional teaching jobs may not exist in the future. AI will be the one curating lessons, adapting to each student, and tracking progress in real time. The role of the human teacher will shift to what machines can’t replicate: guiding, mentoring, and inspiring. And learning doesn’t have to end at graduation. Real education should encompass a lifetime.
One model is ending, but a better one is waiting to be built.

And if they’re sitting on the couch multiple days a week watching them then I don’t understand those choices either 🤷‍♀️ Both a waste of time. It just seems more ritualistic with football.
