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! 🙏😁

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

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).

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

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...

Federal support is the keystone of a funding system that many public media executives say would otherwise be on shaky ground.

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! 🫡

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 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.
