Reading up on something called CycloneDX and just read the term "SaaSBOM" and now Tom Jones is my head singing about software supply chain management 😂

Took a short "how to use Cursor" class at #dayjob from the point of view of "know thy enemy". Instructor: "once I got AI, I just stopped reading!" 🙄

The Tribes in the Dark #TTRPG is now available on DrivethruRPG! We're so tremendously proud of this, and the book is beautiful. We're continuing to work on the Companion, which is coming together really well. www.drivethrurpg.com/en/product/5...

The racism is just too delicious

After seeing _The Big Cheese_ at SIFF, we of course had to check out Street Cheese! We came away with the legendary Shadow Blossom, a honeyed goat cheese, and a quince shrub streetcheesesea.com

I’m not sure why this isn’t being mentioned more, but: IRS policy for 50 years has been that the sitting president & VP get audited every year, in an effort to reassure the public they’re not corruptly abusing the office to enrich themselves.

Time to start stocking up on 5 year-old phones and 10 year-old laptops because those will be the only remaining still useful computing devices in six months

it's literally like watching people with a worm telling them what to do spread worms and saying worms are great actually everyone who works for me needs to be 100% pro brain worm

The concept of "Trust as Infrastructure" really resonates with me: archive.is/ypd47

Chuffed that _Edie Arnold is a Loser_ got the Golden Space Needle Award at #SIFF2026. Hopefully this will get them a distribution deal sooner so I can then harass y'all to go see this gem! www.imdb.com/title/tt3617...

Headed into our final screening of #SIFF2026 with _Powwow People_ #SIFF www.siff.net/festival/pow...

Everyone's all in on the cheese today! #SIFF #SIFF2026 www.siff.net/festival/the...

Last midnighter of #SIFF2026 looks to have *all* the kicking! #SIFF www.siff.net/festival/the...

Being a total fanboy for director Paul Urkijo, this is the movie I've truly been waiting all of #SIFF2026 to see! Let's see if he can pull off this witch's hat trick… #SIFF www.siff.net/festival/gaua

The thing that bums me out the most about the rise of the slop machines is that just prior to that, the trend in data centers was efficiency (do more with less as Buckminster Fuller said). Now that seems like an unretrievable dream…

Longing for a simpler time when we could just roll around in some neo-noir gun kata… #SIFF #SIFF2026 www.siff.net/festival/son...

It's time to get animated! #SIFF #SIFF2026 www.siff.net/festival/ani...

time to pivot my career

Scarpered out of work early for _Murder in the Building_ (but not *only* that) #SIFF #SIFF2026 www.siff.net/festival/mur...

UPDATE: The SIFF Cinema Workers Union (SCWU) just released the below video saying "Without cinema staff there is no SIFF" and that, as of the midpoint of the fest, they haven't "received a single offer as promised by SIFF's leadership." They're calling on people to email directly to express support📽️

"The oligarchs want a permanent ruling class. The extremists want a permanent underclass to grind a boot into. The deal between them is straightforward enough: the oligarchs get captured courts and permanent tax cuts, the extremists get their hierarchy of human worth written back into the law"

Charles Mudede says it's cool, so now I'm nervous #SIFF #SIFF2026 www.siff.net/festival/bec...

Nothing witty to say here, just people standing up and trying to live in the face of grinding brutality #SIFF #SIFF2026 www.siff.net/festival/cub...

I spent my career making the deal that if I got all the unpleasant work done, I'd be allowed the joy of writing code for awhile. Now they want to take even that away 😓

In _The Private Eye_ comic (2013) everyone rejected the net after a massive data breach. Turns out nobody actually cares about that, but we may still get that future via the net becoming a completely useless and uninhabitable torrent of slop… panelsyndicate.com/comics/tpeye

I really wish people aspiring to write understood what a competitive advantage being able to write without AI will be in the coming years.

While enjoying the great movies at the #SIFF2026 festival, it's important to know that SIFF Cinema Workers Union needs our support — the future of #SIFF depends on a fair deal for the people that keep it going year round! www.thestranger.com/film/siff-ci...

It's not unreasonable optimism in the market, the savvy investors know we can supplement the oil shortage with all the biogas coming out of Trump's orifices…

Camping for _Camp_! #SIFF #SIFF2016 www.siff.net/festival/camp

Back at the PACCAR for _Songbird's Secret_ - trying the back row hoping it'll be more tolerable way to see a non-IMAX movie on an IMAX screen 🤞#SIFF #SIFF2026 www.siff.net/festival/the...

Come join us for Story Game Night at Altitude 15 in downtown Olympia Washington! Story Game Night is held every Monday from 5-8pm. We play GMless one shot story games. It’s such a fun time! #ttrpg #ttrpgtok #olympia #olympiawashington #downtownolympia

Closed out the #SIFF weekend with _Boorman and the Devil_. Ostensibly a look at how Exorcist II became a famous film disaster, it's actually a bit of a call to take risks with your artistic endeavors and be willing to accept they might fail… #SIFF2026 www.siff.net/festival/boo...

First #SIFF film we'll see in the PACCAR IMAX (not an IMAX film tho) is _Ghost in the Machine_ bringing a much needed critical view on past and current AI hullabaloo #SIFF2026 www.siff.net/festival/gho...

Lined up for one from the vaults, _Queen Kelly_ — probably best known as the source of the footage of her younger self that Gloria Swanson is seen watching in _Sunset Boulevard_ www.siff.net/festival/que...
