Remember show & tell?
You’d bring whatever you had. A rock. A drawing you weren’t sure about. It didn’t matter what it was. You just held it up and said “this is what I’ve got today” and that was enough.
Then sharing got weird. Everything became content. Your day became a performance. Your to-do list became a productivity system with projects and priorities and tags and a weekly review.
Meanwhile, you have no idea what your best friend did today.
hodgepodge is the room again.
Each day you add your tasks, snap a photo, and write a thought. Your people see the real version. Not a highlight reel. A tuesday.
Your friend is learning to cook and it’s on their list. Your sister keeps carrying “call the dentist” forward from yesterday. Your college roommate has “figure out taxes” sitting there unchecked since last week.
You see it all. The way you used to see each other — up close, unedited, in the middle of it.
