đŸ Link Invasion V3
Random links for you
Hey friends! How are you doing this fine Monday?
Welcome to the 18 new subscribers who have joined since last week. :) Thank you to those of you who shared the newsletter. I really appreciate it.
We are now at 1220 - and veryyy close to one of my favorite numbers - 1234
3 to 6 people a week abandon randomness. Itâs quite sad.
We took a trip down to Maryland to visit my family. I FINALLY got to have a real crab cake after several years. You see - my favorite spot was closed back when we went in October. :(
I connected with many of my old high school classmates at a reunion. It was really fun seeing everyone after 10 years!
Iâve been listening to Max Brookâs book Devolution and itâs quite terrifying so far. Itâs a fictional account of a remote tech-eco community that runs into well - Bigfoot trouble - after Mt. Rainier erupts.
The first few chapters are slow - but things start kicking off BIG in chapter 5. I have a feeling these last 6 hours of audio are going to be ABSOLUTELY TERRIFYING.
Iâm very excited - and relieved Iâm not going out in the woods any time soon.
I got a pretty bad cold towards the end of the weekend - so this week weâre doing another âlink invasionâ of cool links as opposed to the typical format. Iâll be honest - Iâm currently feeling like a Halo Spartan with a blinking health bar.
One of the advantages of these rare newsletters is that I share many of the cool things Iâve found - but got lost in the âsea.â
Well, letâs dive into Link Invasion V3, shall we?

Reddit Search
This awesome little search engine tool will let you search anything â+Redditâ so you can see what Google surfaces from Reddit about a particular topic. Itâs quite fun to find ancient threads about âcraziest thing youâve found in the woodsâ and that sort of thing.
