It’s really something to keep writing these stories from my phone, maybe in my head I couldn’t ever imagine how people like Virgil Abloh from Off-White (R.I.P.) managed his company and direction from his phone like half of the time. I always felt it was because he had a huge phone with the latest things inside but maybe it was purely the limitation of time and convenience, he had no other choice but to make the world work at his finger tips.
That’s kinda driving me to keep on at it, and also because my finger isn’t completely healed yet.
When someone really wants to make something happen in one way or another, it works out somehow. It’s not manifesting as much as it’s making it happen. I appreciate the way I get to think through many ideas but really I wish I had all the apps to make my ideas become as real as possible on the fly. I do think AI helps as that assistant, but honestly, I wish I had an assistant so much of the time.
Maybe everyone on their phone texting is actually busy working, writing to their assistants. And I’m just busy on my phone when the day is over writing these posts out.
(Also just to be clear, I’m writing on swipe gestures on the keyboard because I use one hand instead of two.)
Another story from the phone is the amount of people on the phone these days. It’s great to find out everyone is introverted, but I wish they were a bit less ignorant. It makes me highly conscious of how and when I use my phone in public. I keep myself at an angle to allow the best face to phone breathing space, and also I try never to use the phone when moving because I’d hate to get in the way of other people moving. Some people just really don’t care though.
I’ve actually also tried dictation into these posts. But it lack the thought speed I slow down to when I write. Speaking gets me going too quick and I end up not understanding myself.
Oh well. I’ll be happy to get my finger use back soon. It’s still very tender.
