shoutout to everyone who wants to infodump but cant string together coherent thoughts to form sentences and instead just look at you like this
Don’t look for whatever just touched your foot. Don’t dive down to find it. That’s the chance it’s waiting for.
Never turn your back to the tide.
Don’t swim on the new moon. The moon’s light is the only thing keeping you safe.
Ignore the sounds of the birds. They will get louder as you ignore them, but if you go to them, they expect something in return.
Only look down to your feet, and never deeper than you need to. The deep shadows are not yours to worry about.
The ocean listens to you, too. She knows things.
Do not remove shells or rocks you find. They carry souls with them, and they will return to the ocean one way or another.
Leave no trace of yourself at the beach. She covers your footprints for a reason.
Do not leave abandoned sand castles. They were not built by children. The animals passing between worlds will not forgive you for the obstructions in their path.
Never move a rock bigger than your hand. Gently shift, but always place exactly as you found it. The creatures underneath know where they belong, and they can find where you belong, too.
The wonderful Glass Octopus. Living at depths of around 3000 ft and only being about a foot long, these strange little creatures are rarely seen by scientists.
I WANT TO READ ALL THE BOOKS, STUDY ALL THE LANGUAGES, ADMIRE ALL THE ART... BUT I AM JUST SO TIRED!!!

Collaborative writing is a labor of love. What if it could be easier?
Think connected drafts, not disconnected files.
Think effortless version history and control.
Think in-document chat.
Far away from the prying eyes of AI and LLMs.
