The below introduction temporarily remains, as this site is going through it’s seasonal update. I’m Court and I utilize the seasons to guide me on this journey of life. I’ve done my best to “group” the topics that I feel are most relevant to me and my future self. At first this started out with the same topics, but generated content from the AI explosion during the pandemic. Thankfully the speed at which AI was able to work, allowed me to batch and schedule at an incredible rate, but it missed my touch, the warm, the realness of the life experience in these categories.
Explore the topics and find a title that resonates with what you feel like you’re curious about. Dare I say “leave a comment”? Yes. Why? Because it’s the easiest way to share who you are in a timestamped moment that doesn’t last forever.
