Speedy recovery to your dad. The animation was melancholy...but I'm not sure why?

40 days to retirement. Thank you for the video! :-D

As someone who just joined the retirement ranks this past December, this really hit home. One feels you are finally granted all the time in the world (to catch up and finally do everything we ever wanted), full well knowing that time is now very much limited. Was reminded just how ephemeral that 'contract' can be when out on a lovely extended photowalk, only to come home with a blown out knee...

Sorry it's been a tough week Andy...breathe, hydrate, and take a walk if you are able and it's not too cold! Thinking of you.

Thank you Andy for sharing this... so funny and also very sad...just like living life. Beautiful. It is a new story to be retired, next chapter or something like it.

This is soooo good. Here's the link to the whole film. My 86-year-old husband is set to retire this March!

Hi Honey - was thinking about you the other day. Hope you and all are well.

So nice to see you here! I left Meta platforms in January 2026! We are all vertical and beginning to thaw out from this arctic winter. Readying for the most important midterms!

Oh, that was wonderful. All the best to you and your dad. It's not easy, this stage, but somehow we get through it - hopefully with grace and love.
