Interviewing P. Diddy tomorrow on all things COVID vaccine-related. Hit me up with your questions for him!
While immersed in Flushing NY's seriously Chinese vibes, my kids bought a shit-ton of weird-ass snacks and then tried to recreate some random Chinese TikTok video they are obsessed with: https://www.tiktok.com/@gildrtsy/video/7405511542667545861?_r=1&_t=ZP-8y7QlZyNCxz
The result? This 😆
Hanging in a traditional Japanese (traditional) machiya house, very roomy (by hotel room comparison), traditional futon beds, pour coffee. A super cool experience! Even sporting the Z-Merch! (pics in comments)
From Sunday Zen on YouTube! Enjoy ❤️
Let's dive deep into the themes of trust, surrender, and the Threads of Awakening model introduced by Dr. Pierce Salguero in this live episode of Sunday Zen.
I've been reflecting on how traditional spiritual models can leave us feeling lost, stuck, or even scared, and how Pierce's approach offers a more inclusive framework that resonates with my own experiences.
We share insights on the different threads—emptiness, energy, unity, and psyche—and how they manifest in our lives.

It's been a while since I've been around, but I had gum graft surgery eight weeks ago tomorrow. I'll post pictures later of what the graft looks like likely tomorrow. I go back and see my periodontist in Tyler, Texas two weeks from tomorrow. The graft has healed nicely I'll tell you that much and tomorrow I'll start getting back fully to a normal diet.
I mentioned I had gum graft surgery eight weeks ago today, and here are some pictures. The last picture was before surgery. The first picture is what it looks like now, the second picture is what it looked like four weeks ago, and the third picture is what it looked like six weeks ago, and the fourth picture is what it looked like after the dressing fell off (that was after 12 days).
