Similarly to how… ## [types of smart](https://mason.bearblog.dev/types-of-smart/) _2026-08-16 · mason · Thoughts Of A Guy Named Mason_ i had a discussion about this yesterday. i think some of the types of intelect are; memorisers, pattern matchers, problem solvers, logical processors,and intuition? a lot of these overlap but no they are distinct. memorisers are a product of the education system, they are 'smart' because they have good grades because they actually just memorised everything for the test. pattern matchers are… ## [New friend](https://mason.bearblog.dev/new-friend/) _2026-08-16 · mason · Thoughts Of A Guy Named Mason_ How do I comfort someone? Is that even the thing I should do in this situation? I can listen, and of course I did, but that was because I didn't know what else to do. I guess this is in fair part because I haven't known them long enough to situate myself with the intricasies or how they behave and what makes them feel better and what is too much to handle. i feel anxious that my new friend doesnt… ## [do anything?](https://mason.bearblog.dev/do-anything/) _2026-08-15 · mason · Thoughts Of A Guy Named Mason_ And everything?

It certainly wasn't going to improve the quality of the sensor because it is already a shitty 1/6" 720p mess. But it so far has been very fun. Specifically it is an Anko Digital Video Recorder JLR-80051 . I opened it up and looked at the sensor, it seems to be some M5… ## [scrapbooking](https://mason.bearblog.dev/scrapbooking/) _2026-08-03 · mason · Thoughts Of A Guy Named Mason_ Omg.. Scrapbooking... Its all just scrapbooking. what is entirely what paper documentation should be scrapbooking. I had a presentation on memory from elevate education yesterday. The 3 points to make information stick in your brain is to make it weird and quirky, to make it relevant and to look at it from multiple perspectives. Scrapbooking is weird and quirky. ## [Arizona Iced Tea](https://mason.bearblog.dev/arizona-iced-tea/) _2026-08-02 · mason · Thoughts Of A Guy Named Mason_ I love Iced tea, and there arent many options aside from lipton and fuzetea(even fuzetea is only in the odd vending machine and asian takeout place where I live). Both, i feel have fairly high sugar contents, although they don't taste overly sweet, at roughly ~5g per 100ml. Today, Arizona iced tea came into stock at my IGA, imported from the US, so I got some to try because I love iced tea. In the… ## [re: send 100 emails](https://mason.bearblog.dev/re-send-100-emails/) _2026-08-01 · mason · Thoughts Of A Guy Named Mason_ Imperfects send 100 emails , sounds very interesting. But what restricts me from sending 100 emails to expand my digital world? I could also send emails to expand my real life world. In school this semester I have a class called workplace practises where I am meant to get work experience at a company in a field we are lookong at getting into to learn if we actually like doing that job.

An example of this is doing a higher level of mathematics if you are thinking of doing any engineering adjacent things.

Because you probably aren't going to do too well in a science field I'd… ## [July](https://ambreciel.substack.com/p/july) _2026-07-09 · Ambre Ciel · Ambre Ciel_ Opening for José González on Sept. 11 ## [Spring tour](https://ambreciel.substack.com/p/spring-tour) _2026-03-12 · Ambre Ciel · Ambre Ciel_ Europe and UK (Manchester) ## ['still, there is the sea' 06.06.2025](https://ambreciel.substack.com/p/still-there-is-the-sea-06062025) _2025-04-05 · Ambre Ciel · Ambre Ciel_ Dear friends and recently new friends,
