I Kept Tech Scaling Dreams and China-Virus Rants Colliding

Admitting Racism, Forgiving My Mother and Choosing Joy

Tue 14 Apr

6:45 p.m.

I said a few angry things about people in the morning. I don't know. It's probably best to forgive and help them. No point hating on people so much.

Imtiyaz Gaffoor seems like a really good guy. I'm a really racist person. I should improve. It's no point keeping that kind of racist baloney.

9:15 p.m.

I think today was a bad day. But not really. I connected with Imtiyaz Gaffoor. I think every day is new and exciting. I must be merry and joyous and celebrate every new day as a blessing.

I know the Death Star has a separate team, but the Imperial March is so much better...
