    I tried to do some contracting work for a while and I hired a lawyer to write a contract that protected not just me, but also my clients interest. It was pulling teeth to get him to write the contract that way and I ultimately had to give up....

    I want a new archetype for libertarian well-being activist. Maybe it’s an old archetype and some German philosophers have been talking abt it for centuries…

    My climbing gym is called Crux; the original location is moving because the rent is too high, and the landlord won’t work with the climbing gym…

    The gym is in a part of the city that used be considered south, but now is centralish. I think all of austin loses when we lose places like this. We lose our character and our well being.

    I want the landlord to be the libertarian well-being activist. My mom does this for the Relateful Studio. I didn’t ask and no one makes her; hardly anyone knows and she doesn’t get any tax benefits; we still pay her a good bit each month but it’s under market. She’s doing exactly what she wants to be doing with her money and investments: supporting her son’s vision.

    The climbing gym landlord isn’t a bad guy, probably. Maybe he has loads of debt; maybe he has a wound from childhood that he’s trying to heal, but
    Is the climbing gym landlord doing exactly what he wants?

    I want endosymbiosis activists; where what they do is good for the whole and them, and they sacrifice neither. I want this to be a meme, that people strive to be. I want them to brag about it in their hearts, and try to remain undiscovered. I once heard that in Judaism the best mitzvahs are the ones no one knows you did.

    I have a lot of sadness about this thing too. My husband Geof made an interesting comment on it - I was tempted to blame only ABP and the landlord, but he pointed out that Crux must not have advocated for a right of first refusal or other protection in their lease....
