what if i just pivoted to some street influencer photography bullshit, posting stuff like this and saying "the vibes when the doors open on the left at division"

A new Star Fox game…I suppose a switch 2 is in my future now…

new film from the lab. i'm bored of photography, i think! i need to do something different.

kind of in the same way that the british museum only offered NFTs well after their collapse due to slow institutional velocity, it's uncomfortable to watch the bubble start to falter but also have to endure people talking about it with optimism at work.

lmaoooooo i just watched the trailer for the Bourdain biopic. back-to-back Television and Spoon needle drops. precision strike on its core audience. I will be seated on opening night.

bad vibes! at the everywhere

UK moots (or those who have visited), do you have any essentials for a trip to Liverpool or Merseyside?

from the weekend - knafeh from Al Basha Sweets in Bridgeview (aka Little Palestine), and some art deco sculptures on the Moffet Laboratory building in Bedford Park

i was going through photos from last year and remembered my struggles of trying to get good holiday train photos despite the conditions (check the information screen on the left)

oceangate 2.0 under construction as we speak

new film from the lab. maybe i'll stop shooting film for a while, i'm not enjoying it as much as i once did.

should i have a small party where we're all migrating our projects off github

i don’t want to disappear entirely from online but i do feel better when i go all day without opening the apps.

@acat.bsky.social @badbisque.bsky.social ain’t no fucking way this is a real language

I am now an improv abolitionist.

do any of y'all know much about basic home networking

am I getting old or is the cheap Trader Joe wine considerably worse than it once was

My review: ?????????

truly one of the most fucked up stories in music history. roger was a legend and a loadbearing column of so much of today's music. i will be bumping zapp all day in his honor.

i pitched someone on a video editing job and they want to see samples, which i have, but not directly related to their genre, because i didn't anticipate them actually responding and i pitched just so i could get practice. we'll see how this goes!

the thing about chicago is that the beach is always there and the lake goes on forever

I'm crying, this is so funny, he has absolutely no idea.

late night last night! i was busy deploying a bunch of untested code into GitHub. hope everyone is having a good #friday 🤠

i'm due for an international trip later this year and i'm seeing people recommend travel insurance because of The Global Situation. does anyone have any experience or recommendations on this?

i might start playing my video games in the morning because that seems to be the only time i have time...

ICE in Chicago this morning at Elston and Kennicott—a masked agent tells a witness (on the sidewalk) not to get in front of his car. Feds are continuing kidnappings across the city & burbs after increased activity this month. No flashy CBP caravans, just a steady stream of covert ICE arrests.

it's insane to think i'm coming up on 18 years of using an iphone. even crazier to think there are grown adults who have never known a world without iphone ubiquity. this was one of the first photos i took with the then-novel-to-me concept of a camera phone.

I could not access any social media all day and all that happened was me reading more and making substantial progress towards my goals

Commutes in the hybrid era mean that Monday mornings are gentle buses full of sleepy hoodies and Tuesday mornings are chaotic maelstroms of oxfords and heels fighting for space.

how can I become one of those Chicago folks who seemingly have no daily occupation nor need for sleep and can just spend 18 hours a day exploring the city and documenting old houses, obscure train stops, and oddities

new Folding Ideas was good, as always. it is bizarre to think jimmy beast might be on the downslope even as it feels he is more ubiquitous than ever, like the oscars cameo. and not too surprising than no one seems to be at the wheel of the viral stunt slop factory.

À la recherche de thon perdu

inside of you are two wolves (both dreadful)

Pragmata demo review: fun blend of action and puzzles, I will definitely be buying it. However, the dialogue is firmly in "focus, M"/AAA parody territory

heartbreaking: exercise made me feel better

First day at Bluesky! Excited to start a new chapter. just deployed a bunch of untested code into production. signing off now, have a good weekend!

alright i apologize for a very broad question, but: does anyone have any advice on How To Actually Learn? because this far in life i've gotten by on a luck and half-hearted efforts paying off after a few years, but i'd really like to try and somehow...industrialize the process.

you shouldn't do crimes in general but you absolutely cannot be doing crimes with this name right now

should i buy something pragmatic (shirt) or something fun (eva 01 figure)

I have never bregrudged people for smoking/vaping - you do whatever you need to do to get through life - but I especially relate with them now because of how often I’m hitting scrolls for a dopamine fix. I know it’s a bad habit but it’s also a bad time all around.

On the street, someone asked if I was (older than current age). People used to ask if I was (younger than age at the time). It comes for us all, I suppose!

an auspicious turn on a gloomy day

Man Who Threw Molotov Cocktail At Sam Altman’s Home Claims He Was Following ChatGPT Recipe For Risotto https://theonion.com/man-who-threw-molotov-cocktail-at-sam-altmans-home-claims-he-was-following-chatgpt-recipe-for-risotto/

I know time passes and nothing stays forever but my stupid millennial brain fails to comprehend how in 2006, I paid $7 for the same fast food for which I just paid $16 in 2026.

this is my reminder and demonstration that all of the photos you see online, especially from prominent accounts, have been processed to varying degrees. there's nothing inherently wrong with processing, but - #1 is camera raw, #2 is after work in lightroom.

how do you say "RIP BOZO" in Hungarian

i'm fascinated by this old public access show from 1990s austin where people could call in to request videos/music, without the polish (and corporate-friendly civility) of TRL. a fascinating, often hilarious time capsule (super nsfw language though, so be warned). www.youtube.com/watch?v=kDEE...

work in progress (volume warning)
