It took me 30+ years of my life to realize blank books sold at stores are for this miraculous activity called "Journalin
I had asked an employee at books-a-million why they sell blank books. Never understood it.
I literally thought there were people out there buying these blank books, bringing them home, sitting in a chair and staring at blank pages for whatever fucking reason.
Employee told me "They're for Journaling. Like a diary."
so I bought one and wrote my first journal entry.

the follow-through is what will decide this and that tension shows up immediately Let’s see what happens next. That’s just my read on it.

Real talk, this feels more about execution than intent and that friction is hard to ignore That’s the key detail here. Feels like there’s more coming here.

Looking at this, this reads stronger on paper than in practice and that friction is hard to ignore That’s what changes the context. We’ll see how people react over time. Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.
Not gonna lie, the direction makes sense but the details are messy and that’s what people are responding to This could age very differently in a week.
the wording alone shifts how people read this so the response doesn’t surprise me At least from my perspective.
