Another Quick Housekeeping Note

If Curb Cuts has appeared unusually quiet this month, there’s a reason for it.

At the beginning of February, I initiated an immense life change from which I’m still recovering. It isn’t health-related, but definitely is emotionally taxing—a real brunt to bear for someone already coping with severe anxiety and depression, to be sure. The situation has proven a logistical adventure, meaning I’m forced to reassess my desk setup—it’s being assembled later today—and hasn’t left me with sufficient mental bandwidth for much in the way of tech journalism. I’ve been trying to stay abreast of the news as best I can—perhaps mercifully, I wasn’t invited to New York for next week’s Apple “experience”—but reading is far more passive than reporting right now.

I do miss my new Pro Display XDR, though.

Anyway, as of this writing, my personal life is kinda sorta starting to slow down. I have literal infrastructural elements largely in place, and I anticipate getting my work legs under me once again very soon. Writing has always been cathartic to me, at the very least. I appreciate everyone’s patience and support as I navigate a difficult period—yet another crucible atop of many I’ve endured in my lifetime—and I profusely apologize for the site’s dormancy for most of the month. Life is not linear, indeed.

Rest assured, your faithful correspondent will be back soon.
