Thank you, Representative Sherwood. Suicide prevention is about hope, and the vital work of holding on to hope for others when they cannot manage to do so for themselves. This is Wyoming at its best.

Hear from University of Denver student Griffen Young about his experience at the Kennedy Mountain Campus! Watch below: youtu.be/ULdyqZ2yPls

😆 Alas the Laramie County Library does not have a copy (already burned???) but I was able to order one. I cannot wait to read it, it sounds dam fascinating.

Congratulations, Morgan! A very appropriate recognition, and very much deserved.

Great video for us in the nonprofit field. Inputs ($ raised, # volunteers, etc) and outputs (# clients served, # of services rendered, # scholarships awarded, etc) are NOT indicators of your success! How are you creating REAL improvements in ppl's lives? youtu.be/hTE2oDWPdXQ

If you like work by Ron Fricke (Samsara, 2011 and Baraka, 1992), you owe it to yourself to visit the UWyo News Art Museum’s current installation of Anton Ginsburg’s cinematography work, Hyperborea. I found it so peaceful but at the same time a bit unnerving. Well worth seeing!

March 2023 - View from the 5th floor of the old Downtowner hotel, currently being renovated by business partners Corey Lynn Loghry and Carter Ward. They're doing incredible things with this midcentury building! #WYskies #downtowncheyenne

Remarkable. I see how the progression of AI comes with concerns, but I'm fascinated by the ways it can show us how awesomely powerful human language is in and of itself. Used for good (learning, good faith communication, insight) think of how much more human it could make us.

My guide for prompting AI. And also why you should stop worrying so much about finding magical prompts and just start using a GPT-4 system (the free Bing in Creative Mode or the $20/month ChatGPT Plus) all the time until you get really good at prompting. oneusefulthing.org/p/a-guide-to-p…

Downtown Cheyenne, WY - May 2023

I don’t think enough small business owners in overhead-heavy industries are talking about how hard this kind of economy is and the trade-offs it forces. Time is its own kind of wealth, peace of mind is its own kind of equity.

I love Tina Turner so much. Nam myoho renge kyo, rest in peace, Queen of Rock and Roll.

My thoughts exactly. I’m not in the Apple cult but I like many of their products and admire their cultural approach to tech innovation & marketing. I’m surprised to see Zuckerberg offer such a blasé response given Apple’s phenomenal record with hardware disruption. A+ threads.

Blood Meridian is an incredible book, my favorite of his. His perspective of the American West and how he conveys the human darkness that can exist on “frontiers” is haunting.

Family Promise of Cheyenne is doing great things for kids and families! Support their work through the WyoGives campaign today! Join me in WyoGives! wyogives.org

As a professional fundraiser and grant writer, I see this a lot! I try to remember projects get funded, not proposals. Alignment with your funder’s priorities is key. The proposal should be strong, but even strongest proposal can’t make up for a weak project. 😊 Congratulations!

I've probably read this poem 100 times, but when the world seems particularly gone to hell, it still brings me to tears.

Connections can be so cruel and yet I cannot stop playing! 😆

I have really appreciated WyoFile's reporting of the Wyoming legislative session. Maggie Mullen does a great job of delivering substance and providing context for the drama. Excellent journalism. wyofile.com/wyoming-legisl…
