I took this shot of the moon tonight while trying to get my settings dialed in, but it's quite possibly in vain. The Pacific Northwest weather: Making a mockery of humans trying to witness celestial events since at least 13,000 BC. #wawx #pnw #eclipse

I had to stop and think whether I might have already done this entirely by accident back in college.

Curious if anyone else's extended family group chat is as off-the-wall as mine? I just posted this question there and am only 80% joking. <Brother>, if our dog vacation cult business plan pans out, let's see if <Nephew> wants to use the proceeds to start the world's most boring mutual fund.

Apparently Lynnwood, WA appreciates the outcome of tonight's game. #seahawks #superbowl

Just this week I was lamenting to @xkallisti.bsky.social that, for someone who never really liked JavaScript, I certainly have written a lot of JavaScript.

Still chasing that perfect shot -- I am enjoying the experience AND getting a few other shots that I like as well, so seems OK, as obsessions go. Hoping for cooperative weather again next month! bsky.app/profile/timj... myedmondsnews.com/2026/01/scen... #photography #wawx #moon #mountains

Apparently either the #Seahawks are doing really well or Lynnwood is suddenly under siege and taking coordinated indirect fire.

Me to my wife the professional math tutor: "Hey. Check it out. I got this thing worked from 8 equations with 8 unknowns down to 3 equations with 3 unknowns, but this one's a doozy. Do you think you can help me simplify it?" My wife: "I'm tired and going to bed."

Watching Shadows Under the Market at seattlepublictheater.org was easily one of the highlights of 2025. Criminally underrated. I still can't believe this just ran for a little over a week and didn't go insanely viral, at least regionally. Such a great show. #theater #seattle

Introduce yourself with what almost killed you... Hi, I'm any number of otherwise barely remarkable incidents involving gravity, fire, kinetic energy, and my own stupidity.

Plot concept for the sequel to Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist: They get married and get jobs and instead of wandering around New York trying to find "Where's Fluffy?", they're just going from pharmacy to pharmacy trying to spend their FSA balances to zero on New Year's Eve, but...

"Our team of dedicated and highly-trained full-time canine care professionals is augmented by enthusiastic vacationers who love dogs, but for whatever reason lack the space or time for full-time pet ownership....

I am pretty sure my daughter has the most photogenic dog on the planet.

"Pu-238 radiates about half a watt per gram and critical mass is about 9kg, so it should be really easy to shield and really trivial to build a nuclear-powered combination s'mores maker/air fryer without accidentally irradiating ourselves." - Me, just before realizing I have probably...

Feeling at least a little vindicated in my highly-unpopular (in the tech circles I run in, anyway) stance of "Don't unnecessarily anthropomorphize the AI".

Yearly reminder to enjoy the deep conversations you have with your family and close friends this holiday season... ...but if anyone suggests purchasing a new domain, wait until that pleasant eggnog buzz wears off before making the decision. - Sincerely, Tim at sasquatchnog.com apparently.

Outside of more purely technical innovations, easily one of the most underrated innovations in the history of the web. BILLIONS of people probably have no idea just how much more secure their data is because these folks made SSL/TLS accessible, inexpensive, and easy.

I recently discovered two of the Dave Matthews Band's live performances of All Along the Watchtower, and not only are they fantastic, but speaking as a former garage band bass player, the two minutes of essentially self-indulgent fucking around on the intros is the most relatable thing ever.

yes, hello, I would like to place an order for everyone’s funniest stories of holiday food-related family grudges / drama / chaotic incidents / lore I feel like we need this

Hey Seattle-area photographers! Just a quick periodic reminder of the Light Chasers Discord server that @amay206.bsky.social recently set up, to bring area photographers together to share photos, plan meetups, and increase awareness about local events. discord.gg/2KyhEjv2Ky #photography #pnw

Starting to regret not watching this game...

Calling it a Day #stunday #photography #sunset #sky #water #smoke

Hey #Seattle and #PNW photographers. I’d like to start building a community where we can make photo friends, plan meetups and share information about events. If interested, let me know and I’ll shoot you an invite. And you don’t have to be in the area, everyone is welcome!

If you see this, quote skeet with a screenshot from a video game that released the year you were born.

10% waxing crescent moon that set at approximately 242 degrees at 7:46pm tonight, Sept. 24. Ferry is the M/V Kaleetan. Colors and haze courtesy the Bear Gulch Fire. Still looking for that one perfect shot, though. Back out next month! #photography #wawx #moon @ferries.wsdot.wa.gov

G'night, summer. #stunday #photography #edmonds #pugetsound #summer #fall #sunset #clouds

Pretty sure I'm annoying half or more of the folks in my Extended Family Group Chat - my brother is in North Dakota, and I am sending real-time Aurora space weather probability updates. The less nerdy and more southerly-located members have informed me there is also some "Emmys" event or something.

Just another Puget Sound sunset. The universe, or God, or nature, makes the art. I'm just incredibly lucky to get to be here to press the shutter release sometimes. #stunday #photography #edmonds #ferry #sunset

Good turnout today at the #Edmonds Car and Motorcycle show. This blue 1967 Chevy Malibu was my personal favorite, as it reminded me of my brother's car, and one of the first insane road trip dates I took my future wife on. #carshow #washington #classic #cars #photography #roadtrip #chevy #malibu

This shot of the sun above The Brothers comes around twice a year. I've missed it quite a few times because of clouds, but it worked out pretty well tonight. I've been wanting to catch this alignment for a few years, so I'm glad I tried even though leaving the house was the last thing I wanted to do

Just told my brother that as a lifelong entrepreneur, wantrepreneur, and entrepreneurial "hang-around", my midlife crisis is to just get a normal job, work hard, and save money like a normal person. My midlife crisis is therefore essentially a regression to the mean. Except...

My wife is visiting family out of town and I have been texting her all of the important hard questions while I take care of her plants. "Why do my hands smell like weed after I pick your cherry tomatoes?" and "Does this spider have a name?"

We used to call #Edmonds, Washington "Deadmonds", and joke about rolling the sidewalks up at 6pm. Not for a while now, though -- vibrant nightlife on a cool end-of-summer Saturday evening. #photography #nikon

Bishop, California cannot possibly be real. Nobody likes to have to navigate around road construction, but when this is the background...well maybe that's not so bad. #bishop #california #mountains #yosemite #sierras

You know, the Costco hot dog and soda combo gets all the attention, but can we talk about how the Shure SM58 Microphone has basically been $99 since at least the 80's as well? #music #shure #sm58 #rocknroll

It's clearly #stunday in Edmonds, WA on Puget Sound. The sunsets here are almost always stunning, and I suspect it's the smoke from the Bear Gulch fire that made tonight's sunset particularly colorful. #photography #wawx
