Took me way too long and too much Google to remember Dan Flavin's name. I got there with "florescent light tubes artist", finally.

Embarrassing since I used to just hang out in the Flavin room at Tate Modern. It's hella vibes in there.

My mom called me on lap 69 and I all but literally picked up, screamed "MAX NEEDS TO OVERTAKE KIMI FOR P2 WITH THREE LAPS TO GO", and hung up.

Don't worry, I called her back after it didn't happen. #f1

I don't know why I was so worried about Max. Start from the pit lane, p4 by lap 22? Only my boy. He'll win after the papaya boys take each other out (Oscar will hit Lando, and then whine about it). #f1 #wishfulThinking #brazilianGP

I wasn't even going to watch this race, but I am and I'm so mad. It's 9 laps in and this is the Grand Prix of Bullshit.

I hope the papaya boys hit each other and double DNF. Rooting for penalties. #f1

I demand penalties for Piastri. All of them. What the hell. JUSTICE FOR CHARLES LECLERC #f1 #brazilianGP

Immediate Safety Car as Gabriel Bortoleto has one hell of a bad weekend at his home GP. Wow. Poor guy. #f1

I didn't really get to follow what happened in qualifying this weekend, but I'm so nervous for Max starting from pit lane today. #f1

Left TechBash at roughly 11, pulled into the school parking lot to get the kiddo at 4:45. Nailed it.

Finally home. My dog missed me 😹

Do university students still write their finals in blue books? Is that still a thing?

That was my favorite part of undergrad, because I'm a weirdo. I loved composing an entire academic essay in an hour or less.

One of the things I am known for is telling junior devs there is no crying in software development, followed up by the statement, "I'm joking, there is SO MUCH crying". #facts

Can't judge a conference by its swag, but @techbash.bsky.social does it SO well 😻 (Not pictured: the small conference sticker that actually fit in the little free space left on my laptop! More small-size conf stickers, please!)

Number one conference activity? Yappin' with @corgidev.bsky.social

Someone should probably keep us away from each other so that we actually get other stuff done 😹

Time for @techbash.bsky.social 2025!!! Always a good time 💙

Max Verstappen is being about 2000x more mature about that VSC than I am 😭 #F1 #MexicoGP

My ESPN Live signal keeps dropping with 12 laps to go in the Singapore GP, and I am STRESSED #F1

Finally took the Tech Elevator sticker off my laptop.

Feels weird.

J. Crew has me on a drip campaign with emails titled "Still thinking about the 2025 Rollneck sweater?" and y'all I have been thinking nonstop about the 2025 Rollneck sweater since it was announced a week and a half ago

Getting back into drawing and I have just been SO incredibly pleased with this illustration at every step so far.

Next: ruining it all by painting 😹

Ummm @guy.dev why is my partner guiltily saying "if a long skinny box shows up at the house on Friday it's definitely not an antenna"???? Why is there an app on my home LAN that is tracking the planes flying over the house???? Why did I let you two ever interact????

Some damn youth on Reddit just referred to L.L. Bean as "the bean", as in, "I got a new Boat and Tote from The Bean" and... no. Absolutely not. We are not doing that.

Preppy is a lifestyle, not an aesthetic, kids. Same as punk.

A Red Bull and a Racing Bull on the podium? 😻🙌🏻 #F1 #DutchGrandPrix

I hate genAI and yes it uses a lot of water and it's very very wasteful but I NEED EVERYONE TO KNOW THAT THE WATER DOES NOT GO INTO THE DATA CENTER AND TURN INTO TOXIC SLUDGE.

Go to your local Micro Center and say you want a water-cooled PC, a nerd will be very happy to show you how it works.
