Open source tools arenโt just for codersโthey power much of the modern world and can give you real choice in how you work and create. From private file syncing with Nextcloud to building apps and games with Godot, recording with OBS, blocking ads with Piโhole, and even running your own AI models, open source means freedom and shared innovation.
๐คฏ Use Novelty To Rewire Your Brain and Restore Your Fire
What if the reason youโre feeling stuck isnโt because somethingโs wrong with youโbut because your brain hasnโt felt newness in a while? In this post, I explore how depression, boredom, and repetition are all linked through neuroplasticityโand how adding tiny moments of novelty can help shift your perception, stretch time, and remind you that youโre still alive and choosing.

What if your attention was currencyโand every scroll, click, and thought was a vote for the world you live in tomorrow? In this post, we explore the algorithms that shape our digital feeds, our inner dialogue, and even our soul patterns.

What happens when we treat AI like a magic mirror instead of a mind-reader? In this post, I explore the ethics, risks, and revelations of using AI in creative and spiritual workโfrom privacy concerns and environmental costs to the hidden biases built into its design. I share how Iโve been using AI to co-write Fires of Alchemy, why I still use AI-generated art (for now), and how the real magic isnโt in the techโitโs in the intention you bring to it.
What if itโs not your actions that shape your lifeโbut the intention behind them?
This post explores how unconscious patterns shape our decisions, why awareness is the first act of transformation, and how tuning into your intention can change everything.
