bro

At least I get to make another beautiful meal for my delicious wife

Ah yet again I must believe the liar for I have no other choice.

Did you know? Bluesky does NOT require you to announce that “Everyone’s 12” applies to you personally.

Part of me is dying to know if my right wing extended family is waking up to their, uh, let's say poor media literacy or susceptibility to misinformation; but then I remember I intentionally avoid their social media presence for a good reason.

A little more vibe coding should clear this right up

My new egg sandwich technique is unstoppable

You know you’re cooked when you start writing parasocial fan fiction using AI and trying to pass it off as journalism

At least I know Pioneer Works is using that membership money for their mission and not their website where the ticket purchase links never work

Getting pulled into a QA rabbit hole when all I want to do is eat lunch, Slack messages inexplicably getting progressively more terse

I’m two dirty gibsons and chicken liver mousse for dinner years old I guess

Good thing I've been saving more money cause all of it will luckily cover the startling sum of taxes we owe this year. Very excited to toss this on top of worry pile with ballooning costs, a looming recession, the terrible job market, and this weird pain in my body that began yesterday.

Said hi to a blue collar dude in my neighborhood probably 15 years my senior who threw back "a how you doing young man" which could be a complement about looking good for my age or a solid burn about how my soft white collar gentrifier ass looks immature for my age

I feel bad for the timberdoodles getting swarmed by amateur paparazzi but I don’t know many birds personally maybe they like it

This past Friday in Red Hook, Brooklyn

Was about to get mad online but then a starling outside my window started making a wild series of noises and I snapped out of it.

Every day is a good day to make sure the Trans and NB folks in my orbit know I’m in their corner but saying it every day would be creepy so I’ll just say it again today with everyone else. Then I’ll see you at some June fundraisers in Red Hook.

Fun thing that happened yesterday on my bike: Driver in front of me slows & comes to a stop. No signal, I'm not sure what's up & didn't want to go around because of oncoming traffic. Driver proceeds to put the car in reverse and back toward me very intentionally. Luckily slow enough to avoid.

Something feels off about philanthropies funded by tech titans operating or giving money to programs that promote AI use. Smells a little self-dealish.

Working on a theory that private foundations are like the early web and commercial DAFs are walled garden social media. Not sure where I'm going with this.

Me: I’m glad I didn’t buy a Tesla a while ago I’d have to put a sticker on it explaining my moral position Me just now realizing something: Fuck

The ultimate goal of any creative endeavor is making people ask if you are okay

ahem SOMEBODY’s wife made the sizzle reel on the series finale of The Last Drive In

Thanks to Fujiya & Miyagi sometimes when I'm listening to a song where the band hits an instrumental groove and stays in it for a while my brain just starts going, "Fujiya, Miyagi, Fujiya, Miyagi, Fujiya, Miyagi...."

RIP Pitt’s in Red Hook. My wallet will be better off but my heart is broken.

Sorry, can’t focus today boss, favorite local restaurant just closed.

Tonight a postal worker saved my life

"ask AI" motherfucker if I wanted to ask the computer I know how to ask the fucking computer how about you ask AI why I might want to talk to a human about a topic for which I don't have the functional syntax necessary to explain my problem

Post a pic you took, no context, to bring some zen to the feed.

For twenty minutes I thought I made an organization-harming mistake then realized someone was comparing two different data sets; the "I was sick for two straight weeks while writing hundreds of lines of code on a tight deadline" card stays in the deck

Happy 25th anniversary to Tortoise's "Standards" an album that altered my listening habits forever (if not right away)

🎉 Shitty neighbor gettin’ kicked out 🎉

Saw a cryptid in the wild today: A .pdf with only one "_Final" in the filename that's actually the final version
