June 2026 was a month of exploration and wonder. Learning about being autistic while exploring dating with 3 different women. 176 days completely sober from drugs and alcohol. 161.4 miles walked on two feet that kept my nervous system regulated. I road tripped through 5 states and slept in 4 of them. I went no-contact with all but two people I am related to.
The lessons of June are simple:
- Listen to your nervous system, let it guide you, and don’t resist it.
- Set boundaries and keep them. Walk and block those who violate them.
- Autism is real for me and learning I am autistic is helping me understand many mysteries of my life.
- Belly laughing with a woman you just met is absolutely wonderful.
- Watching a sunset and orcas in the bay with another woman you just met is also absolutely wonderful.
- Charge the storm, horns forward. Always.
That is the application. The rest is the source code.

161.4 miles walked.
176 days completely sober from drugs and alcohol. Not a single identified pattern repeated. TuOS followed to the letter, every single day, without exception. TuOS revised several times with additional operating system instructions.
Those are not just numbers. Those are the result of months of hard internal work becoming a permanent way of life.
> 4000 KNOWN acts and counting: kindness_ops_202606.sh
This month I continued to participate in a project I was invited into that has spread a known total of over 4000 acts of kindness in the community, which has rippled into thousands more. There are at least 15 people involved and these acts of kindness have rippled into an estimated 30,000 acts of kindness in multiple states. The project has no end in sight.
