Take the time to explore spots like Bay Ridge, or Cortelyou Road. You'll find calm there, perhaps even a surprising dose of the suburban. The real perk of living in an area like Bay Ridge vs a suburb outside of Corpus Christi? A train line linking you straight to the heart of Union Square or Grand Central in under an hour. ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/0c/cc/0ccc9a8d-054a-4056-b11e-e1bfbbb66387/content/images/2023/08/Screenshot-2023-08-23-10-31-49.png) --- ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/0c/cc/0ccc9a8d-054a-4056-b11e-e1bfbbb66387/content/images/2023/08/DALL-E-2023-08-23-10.12.33---An-abstract-of-Tachisme-version-of-gently-disturbed-water-flow-in-a-stream-blocked-by-leaves.png) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/0c/cc/0ccc9a8d-054a-4056-b11e-e1bfbbb66387/content/images/2023/08/DALL-E-2023-08-23-10.12.40---An-abstract-of-Tachisme-version-of-gently-disturbed-water-flow-in-a-stream-blocked-by-leaves.png) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/0c/cc/0ccc9a8d-054a-4056-b11e-e1bfbbb66387/content/images/2023/08/DALL-E-2023-08-23-10.12.45---An-abstract-of-Tachisme-version-of-gently-disturbed-water-flow-in-a-stream-blocked-by-leaves.png) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/0c/cc/0ccc9a8d-054a-4056-b11e-e1bfbbb66387/content/images/2023/08/DALL-E-2023-08-23-10.12.50---An-abstract-of-Tachisme-version-of-gently-disturbed-water-flow-in-a-stream-blocked-by-leaves.png) --- ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/0c/cc/0ccc9a8d-054a-4056-b11e-e1bfbbb66387/content/images/2023/08/bramses_An_abstract_of_Tachisme_version_of_gently_disturbed_wat_4b81d04b-f88e-4595-a044-826602be5fec.png) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/0c/cc/0ccc9a8d-054a-4056-b11e-e1bfbbb66387/content/images/2023/08/bramses_An_abstract_of_Tachisme_version_of_gently_disturbed_wat_558a8d7b-ff0e-483d-aaf0-1f485eb00739.png) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/0c/cc/0ccc9a8d-054a-4056-b11e-e1bfbbb66387/content/images/2023/08/bramses_An_abstract_of_Tachisme_version_of_gently_disturbed_wat_0d56d8c0-ca98-461b-99be-9d6b8afc6574.png) --- --- --- [This Goes INSANELY HARDthat bass line UGHHH, this whole video is SO GOOD Some of my favorite frames (literally every still frame could be a desktop wallpaper):![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/0c/cc/0ccc9a8d-054a-4056-b11e-e1bfbbb66387/content/images/size/w256h256/2023/01/leda-2.jpeg)Bram AdamsBram Adams![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/0c/cc/0ccc9a8d-054a-4056-b11e-e1bfbbb66387/content/images/2023/03/My-project.jpg)](https://www.bramadams.dev/202301051926/) --- --- --- ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/0c/cc/0ccc9a8d-054a-4056-b11e-e1bfbbb66387/content/images/2023/08/IMG_8143.PNG) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/0c/cc/0ccc9a8d-054a-4056-b11e-e1bfbbb66387/content/images/2023/08/IMG_8142.PNG) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/0c/cc/0ccc9a8d-054a-4056-b11e-e1bfbbb66387/content/images/2023/08/IMG_8141.PNG) ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/0c/cc/0ccc9a8d-054a-4056-b11e-e1bfbbb66387/content/images/2023/08/IMG_8140.PNG) --- ![](https://storage.ghost.io/c/0c/cc/0ccc9a8d-054a-4056-b11e-e1bfbbb66387/content/images/2023/08/Screenshot-2023-08-23-11-05-41.png) When you see those tier 7 minions in your game, do me a favor, grab Tess.

Maybe it's something that could tickle the fancy of vault members, make them feel special. Definitely can picture it being a neat bonus! --- Another day done, neatly cut into boxes of time. This time block journal, it's kind of become a friend. Excited to think where I might be in a few months - maybe a master at wrestling time. --- GPT helps me to write, and I like that. It’s like the words I jot down aren't my own, they’re not precious. So, when it comes to chopping them up and pruning them, I don't flinch. And, there's something cool about typing in shorthand, or even in low key, lowercase letters. GPT just takes it, and churns out sentences that sound as real as rain splattering on a windowpane.
