Exciting Friday night watching a documentary on bryophytes in-between cleaning for the open house tomorrow afternoon.

Me, to me: You're just going to the grocery store. no need for this much anxiety, jeez.

Birthday weekend theme is basically spicy noodles by the truckload, with meat. Monday I'm trying some viral salad recipe bc ✨ balance ✨

Went outside, was not disappointed in the slightest. 10/10, no notes. #garden #wildflowers

There's something a bit poignant about a Bluetooth device failing to connect to another device right next to it when they're the only Bluetooth devices for hundreds of thousands of kilometres around.

My kid, Z, is a bit over two and a half (HOW?! 😭😭). She's put it together that singing happy birthday usually = cake. So yesterday after everyone was done singing HBD to me, she looks at Elizabeth and quietly says, "Where is my cake?" 😂😂🤣

Yay, it's my birthday. 🎂 No pressure, but if you want to donate to my moving fund or buy me a coffee, feel free to DM me and I'll send you my Ko-Fi or PayPal! 😂

Oh, to be Teddy. Unbothered, napping, fresh haircut, medicine taken. He is a good bean. #Dogs #ShihTzu

I am going to deep fry and eat the LiMu emu, and possibly also Doug

Just wanted to remind folks, especially the GOP and the FDD, that Barack Obama’s 2015 nuclear deal didn’t give Iran control of the Strait of Hormuz or allow it to keep 60% enriched uranium. It sent $1.7 billion to Iran versus the tens of billions Iran will now make from tolls. 🤷🏽‍♂️

What a f*cking waste of lives and money. 😠

I'm 0/2 at the new coffee place absolutely undrinkable ugh. Horrible. I can't wait to get back to new England where there's actually decent coffee. Jesus Christ.

It's my birthday next week, yay. All I want is for my house to sell so we can get the heck out of the south. And maybe a cupcake.

Well I'm old enough that Walmart is playing "Everlong" by the foo fighters...

Oh cool it's TDOV and I'm still alive. That's fun. I'm accepting donations towards the ridiculous cost of moving up north 😂 (mostly joking). Anyway my gender stuff is as always complicated, but I'm still here. That's all I can ask for at this point. I'm not giving up or disappearing.

👀👀👀

failing is hot girl behaviour 🫵🏻💥

a technology we can all be excited about

I'm finally updating the OS on my ancient laptop so homebrew stops yelling at me about how old this laptop is. Hopefully this year I can get a new personal laptop. We'll see. For now at least I'll be running an OS that isn't geriatric.

This little friend took a nap in our gutters today. They have moved along for the night, but are super cute! The little tail!! 🥺 Did not pet!!

I'm having a ✨ riveting ✨ Saturday night reading an article about the history of clubmoss in New England 😂

Spending my NYE down with pink eye AND strep at the same time. I haven't had strep since I was a kid (and I likely got it from my kid...) and it SUCKS as an adult. Elizabeth keeps occasionally coming into my room and spraying Lysol in my general direction. 🫠

If you ever feel lonely, highly suggest (just kidding, I regret this immensely) putting your phone number into a moving quote website, bc damn these people are relentless 😂

Saw a show on BBC home and garden when Z was all of four months old about making a holiday garland of your baby's onesies from when they were itty bitty. We templated some hearts, trees, mittens, and stars on a box of seltzer. And now that she's 27.5 months old, I finally got around to making it. 😂

Huge shout-out to the very kind folks at @edera.dev for sharing not only a phone charger, but offering me a spontaneous invite to their table for a slice of (amazing!) pizza as I randomly ducked into a pizza place to find somewhere to charge my phone. Your generosity is very much appreciated! 🙏😁

Thrilled to be here at @rejekts.io today!! Looking forward to seeing everyone, and please come see myself and @workbrew.bsky.social's awesome Brandon Valentine speaking this afternoon in the main theater at 2:35 PM today! #Rejekts2025 cfp.cloud-native.rejekts.io/cloud-native...

too damn much of this stuff this year, "shutting down after 50, 100, 200 years"

Made it to ATL! Looking forward to speaking tomorrow at #Rejekts2025 alongside @workbrew.bsky.social's Brandon Valentine! Brewed for Scale: How Homebrew Virtualized macOS DevOps with Kubernetes :: Cloud Native Rejekts NA (Atlanta) 2025 :: pretalx share.google/vmOdCjFhMK1X...

Anyone else going to be at #Rejekts2025 tomorrow? I'm co-presenting a talk and would love to see some familiar faces!

Who do I know here that's going to #Rejekts2025? I'll be co-presenting an awesome talk and would love to see folks!

Some exciting news: Kodak announced two new types of film today, and, notably, said it would be directly selling the film to shops, sidestepping a complicated licensing agreement where Kodak hasn't had the right to sell its own film to stores www.404media.co/kodak-is-sel...

How dare I kiss her on the head? Do I have no respect for personal space? 😂

We all got rotavirus (thanks, daycare!!) and I am about to spend the same amount as my car payment for my kid to have literally been at home sick for the last two weeks. Love it, feels great. (None of this feels great actually, especially when also sick).

Got some super cool news today!!

Can’t wait to introduce bird-based storage into my backup system

Binged the entirety of #DungeonCrawlerCarl and did a total 180 to 'Heretical Fishing'. Wrapped up 'Bronze/Silver/Gold Ranked Brewer' also. It's a good time for LitRPGs over here. DCC is fantastic and is definitely in the running for my top series of 2025 so far.

just wanted to be honest that something i do sometimes is doordash off the 55+ menu on iHop because those deals are so good and they don't verify your age through doordash. so yeah... secret's out

New job is going well!! I have it on good authority that I'll likely be at KubeCon this year. Excited to reconnect with folks!

Cutting federal funding wouldn't just threaten smaller public media orgs, such as New England community radio stations. The impact would ripple across public media — putting national shows, shared music licensing costs, and more at risk. My latest: www.bostonglobe.com/2025/04/22/b...

Honestly I'm glad they picked Harvard to try out this novel "we're mad" legal theory of revoking tax-exempt status, given its infinite resources, deep network of powerful alumni, and law school attended by 142 sitting federal judges. Good luck! 🫡

It's my birthday, so that's cool. 🎉

I don't know who needs to hear this, but start living. The days are flying by, and all you do is work, pay bills, and stress. Enjoy what you can-walks, sunsets, music, laughter. Joy doesn't have to be expensive. You deserve it.

Smoking a brisket today and hopefully making some gochugaru quickles to go with it and some smoked garlic olive oil Yukon potatoes. Fusion time. 😂 If folks aren't feeling that I'll whip up some lamb kebabs for them instead lol.

I s2g some of y'all didn't play FFX and it shows.

I should probably get back into writing at some point. I miss my @krakencollective.bsky.social folks like @roannasylver.bsky.social and @clh2oars.bsky.social. So many plot bunnies. We'll see if I actually get to drafting anything 😂. Who knows, maybe I'll finally dive into writing a #LitRPG.
