Ah yes, nothing like waking up at 430 to on a 7-mile run before the kids wake up.

The run was a great time. The fact that I need to take a nap at 930 is less than ideal.

Merry Christmas all! Indian Food and Legos with the family. Couldn’t have asked for a better day.

Man…the amount of anxiety I have watching Ep 6 of Senna is unreal.

Maybe it’s the coffee or the adderall, but I’m pretty sure it’s the countdown to watching a dude hit the wall at almost 200 mph.

Anybody else eagerly awaiting the Chicago Marathon drawing results? Not feeling hopeful but I have some back up races just in case

I can’t think of a time in recent memory that a season of sport has been that enjoyable to watch. Going to miss F1 for the next few months. Congrats to McLaren.

I don’t normally get Sunday scaries but I’m not actually sure if I remember how to do my job after 4 actual days off.

Does anyone else have to cut up Dino nuggets for their youngest child and make realistic death noises when cutting them up, or do I maybe just need to call my therapist now?

If anyone wants to know how my Saturday is going I just asked my kinds if they wanted to watch some Bernie and Eart while I finished up breakfast dishes.

This was after I burned the bread and dropped half of a carton of eggs.

Caffeine and Adderall please kick in…

The Bears are the worst coached team I’ve ever seen. That last play was it for Eberfleus. How do you go from having a chance to win, to having a chance to tie, to losing the game in one play

I’m like 100 percent sure that I’m probably crazy for this but in the past 2 months I’ve dropped Notion and digital note taking in general and moved back to a pocket and A5 style notebook and pens.

I’m considerably more productive and retaining a ton more of what I write down.

Did not expect the Vikings to play the Long Game here with Daniel Jones, McConnell is clearly a genius.

Let him torch you in a playoff game this giving him a 40 million a year contract only to know he would fail so you could sign him to your practice squad.

Chess moves from KMC here.

Not a huge Verstappen fan, but it was a joy to see just how good he was this year. Absolutely untouchable in the fastest car the last 2 years, but he consistently out drove the 4th fastest car this year.

Hope the grid stays this competitive next year and with the new regulations in 2026.

Bet it all on red #forzaferrari #lasvegasGP.

Getting real jealous of everyone who snagged a 30th anniversary PS controller.

Congrats to those who got/received them, they look amazing.

I just listened to a group of 60-year-olds in a Hospital waiting room decry how we don't know how to send letters through the mail anymore.

One of the gentlemen then mentioned how stressed he was about having to manage his eight properties.

Exactly how out of touch is this group?

Just a friendly reminder after a fun weekend with the wife and kids.

The best and worst part of being a parent is watching them grow up.

NFC North is absolutely the best division in the NFL right now. Shocked at what Dan Campbell has done with the Lions still.

Just got to watch last nights main event. Love him or hate him Jon Jones is the 🐐, and that’s whether or not he decides to fight Aspinall.

That having been said he should absolutely take that fight.

Have had trouble running decent lab based hypervisors on my M1 MBP and was ready to just build out own stuff.

Then I remembered I had our trusty 27 inch Intel based iMac stashed in our closet since we moved.

Looks like I’m hanging out with the TCM Malware Analysis course this weekend.

Didn’t get to watch one punch of Paul/Tyson last night, did get to watch a red spinning circle and Netflix trying to blame it on my internet though.

If I’m the NFL or WWE I’m definitely nervous and on the phone with Netflix this morning.

Sure it’s been rough for the SRE team in the last 24 hours.

You know it’s a bad fantasy football season when your first 2 picks get hurt or underperform (Nacua/Olave) but when your kicker gets hurt (Butker) it really feels like the world is against you.

We’re all agreeing this is finally the twitter/x killer right? I can’t keep signing up for short form social media content apps 😂

Happy to connect with any of ya’ll in the cyber community, or anyone who stumbles upon my random musings on random topics.
