+# Context
+
+As a teenager I spent alot of my energy trying to be different. I don't know what informed my rebellious streak, I just
+know that once artists got over a couple thousands actve listeners on Spotify, I started to lose interest in them.
+
+I'm barely old enough to think straight, and it dawned on me in a conversation with my wife, "you know, things are
+probably actually bigger in Texas".
+
+## Reflection
+
+I'm glad I still have a pretty strong rebel streak in me that propels me to be curious, to try the more esoteric
+things. I'm a better person for having learned other niche programming languages like
+
+- Clojure
+- Ocaml
+- Zig
+- Gleam
+- Nim
+
+(surprisingly no rust, its like mainstream in its deviance or something...)
