Introduction
It's May 21, 2026, the clock just turned to 10:35 and I just received a million dollars worth of knowledge about Jazz from a good friend, talked about if it's worth it to gain the world and be alone (let alone lose your soul), and learned there's still good in this world with my partner. In this week's bustle the main thing that stuck with me is that like the knowledge, novelty comes with a high price tag thee days.
