2026 In SF Part 3/4 ✅

What a third quarter this was. Absolutely insane. So many birthdays, so many full weekends, so many great people I got to spend time with 🎉🕺🐐
There’s a record 111 photos in this post I still feel like I struggled to include everything 😅

It’s been an adjustment learning how to manage a full time job along with making time to see all the people I care about and also focus on myself and my personal goals 👨‍💻🏋️‍♂️ But I feel like I’m doing a decent job at it, and this is a position I could have only wished to be in just 5 years ago ⭐️

There’s people who were in previous posts who aren’t in this one, there’s people who weren’t in previous posts who are in this one. As hard as the change can be, I think I’ve finally learned that the outcome is not indicative of the experience, and to be able to detach myself from outcomes more. I think I’m happier for it 🫡

Super happy to have met all the cool new people I did. Same for the friends who I’ve made and are still here with me now 🌚🌝

Alright enough rambling, if I’ve seen you over the past 3 months you are somewhere in here. If you take the time to scroll through, I hope you enjoy ✌️

hi all,

three years ago i was simultaneously blessed and cursed with what was supposed to be a delightful distraction from work: left on my desk by my coworker was a sheet of paper labeled “The World’s Hardest Logic Puzzle,” aka “Three Gods,” a logic puzzle first solved by mathematician and philosopher George Boolos, and later published in The Harvard Review of Philosophy in 1996.

i gave it my fair share of time and deemed it too difficult for my mortal mind, yet still promised not to spoil the answer for myself by looking up the solution, instead accepting that one day i might die never having known. over the following months the problem refused to leave me alone. in short spurts i would try again and again. it felt like i was getting nowhere.

on september 8th navier-stokes was solved, my soul was reinvigorated, and i devoted the following couple days to making my biggest and most serious push yet. on the third day i knew i had the solution, and a couple hours later i had verified it. the battle was over.

over the years ive shared this problem with many friends, with the stipulation that i will only share it if they too vow not to spoil the answer for themselves: they either solve it themselves or live without knowing. i too ask this of you: if you dare swipe to the last two pictures i ask you to first take a similar pledge.

thank you for the support from friends over the years, for hosting attempt sessions with me and keeping morale high. i couldn’t have done it without you all.

steadfast-ly,
Joey

2026 In SF Part 2/4 ✅
Can’t believe another 3 months have already passed, feels like it went by in a blink. Part 1 of the year was tough, happy to say part 2 has been better. Celebrated some major milestones, traveled all across the world, and spent time with a bunch of wonderful people 🎂✈️♥️

Life can be tough at times, but part of the fun is navigating through all of it and doing your best to figure it out. Definitely helps to have some good friends to guide you along the way and keep you locked in 🔐
Not sure if I’ve ever felt more tired but also more alive than I have during these past 3 months 😅

If I’ve seen you over the past 3 months, I’m glad I got to spend time with you and you are in here somewhere 🫡
Anyways that’s all, will stop my yapping now. 2026 is halfway over, got 6 more months to make the most of it. I plan on being out there somewhere doing just that. Cheers🥂

Also trying out this new multiple caption thing, seems cool I guess 🌚

Sidsbestlifemoments Part 1/4: Suits & Boats🕺🛥️😎
One of the best nights of my life. Wouldn’t have had it any other way.

Not enough tags to go around but I appreciate every single person who was there with me to celebrate everything that’s happened in my life over the past year.

I hope next the birthday has everyone who was here for this one and is even more special, but for now, I am just going to enjoy the moment. Absolute, absolute, absolute W 🫡🤑🐶

2026 In SF Part 1/4 ✅
These past few months have been some of the most trying months of my entire life. Lots of heartbreak and rejection and moments where I was questioning a lot of things. But we kept moving onward and pushing through, and I guess something finally went my way 🌚

There are not enough words to quantify my gratitude but everyone’s support and help along the way is greatly, greatly, greatly appreciated and not unnoticed

The first 3 months of the year feel like they just flew by, hoping to take it a bit easier over the next couple of weeks. Tons to look forward to with friends visiting and my birthday and potential travels across the world 🎂🌍

It has been an absolutely unreal journey, but I am glad it is about to be over. Here are some of the highlights of the fun times so far this year, and hopefully many, many more of these to come 🫡
