If you see this, repost with your model of positive masculinity.

Officially festive. The tree is lit, the fire is roaring, and Leroy has claimed the best spot in the house. Rare footage of the beast in standby mode. This is peak cozy season here in Westfield, IN.

A black and white Boston Terrier sleeps soundly on a small grey rug directly in front of a fireplace with glowing red embers. To the left of the fireplace, a portion of a lit Christmas tree is visible near a window, while cut logs sit on the tiled hearth floor next to the sleeping dog.

The Dragons are not beasts of this world. They are the Xen-Dracana, interdimensional invaders who use the Cendith Cloud as a gateway. The archives regarding the Origins of the Rift are now open on the Chronicles of the Dragon Mist.

A stylized red silhouette of a dragon standing in profile with large, bat-like wings and a spined tail. The entities we call Dragons are not of the Trynarr System. They are intruders. While the common folk call it the 'Dragon Mist,' navigators know it as the Cendith Anomaly: a dimensional scar where the laws of physics thin. They do not come for land; they come for The Shine. They are intelligent, they are ancient, and they remember that we are holding their stolen power.

The AutoCAD Ribbon was designed for people who do not know what they want to do next. The Command Line is for those who do. Here is why I disable the Ribbon, reclaim my screen real estate, and stick to the Old School ways.

A minimalist, high-contrast illustration of a classic CAD interface featuring a static left sidebar with drawing tools and four black viewports. The layout demonstrates a clean, Ribbon-free workspace that prioritizes screen real estate and efficiency, reflecting the "Old School" drafting style where the sidebar and command line rule over modern UI clutter.

I'm running a "Workday Genre Rotation" experiment. No algorithms. Just vibes.

Mon: Psybient
Tue: Prog Rock
Wed: Melodeath
Thu: Doom Jazz
Fri: Celtic Fantasy

See how my sonic diet fuels my CAD & coding work:

I'm finally back. After a year of moving boxes and radio silence, Extruding the Noise is live again. I needed a hard reset to get my creative brain working for music, CAD, and writing. So I started a strict "Workday Genre Rotation" experiment. No algorithms. Just specific vibes for specific days. Monday: Psybient Tuesday: Prog Rock Wednesday: Melodeath Thursday: Doom Jazz Friday: Celtic Fantasy It turns out, what I listen to changes how I code and 3D model.

It's moving day!
U-Haul moving truck parked on a suburban street in front of a beige house with a brown roof. The truck features a large graphic of a Viking ship labeled "MINNESOTA" and includes U-Haul branding such as "Truck Share 24/7" and "Gentle-Ride Van." Autumn trees with colorful foliage line the background, and a small, unreadable sign is placed on the grass near the truck.

Getting older is realizing no couples actually cuddle while they sleep. They tell each other goodnight, rollover, one snores and farts all night while the other watches Social Media till their eyes burn.

Fish 'n Chips? No.
Sticks 'n Bits? Maybe.
How about just some Fish and Potatoes.
A paper plate on a speckled countertop holds several breaded fish sticks and a serving of crispy tater tots. To the left of the plate is a small glass bowl containing a light red dipping sauce made from horseradish and ketchup, suggesting a casual, comfort-food snack.

Relocating is hard, especially 10 hours away. The packing, the logistics, the stress. But the hardest part is when family gives you grief for leaving, without considering why: to grow, to improve, to build something better.
Relocating is never easy, especially when it’s to another state 10 hours away. Between packing, coordinating movers, renting trucks, updating addresses, and managing logistics, the stress is real. But the hardest part isn’t the boxes or the miles. It’s when family members react with disappointment or guilt, not because of what we’re doing, but because of how it affects them. We didn’t make this decision lightly: we chose to move to better ourselves, to grow, and to create a stronger foundation for our future. That deserves understanding, not judgment. To those who’ve supported us, thank you: To our friends who cheered us on, and to our sons (who didn’t even blink when we said we were moving), your love and trust mean everything. You remind us why this journey is worth it. Here’s to new beginnings. Even when they come with tough goodbyes.

First BSOD since February.
This setup’s been rock solid… until AutoCAD decided to throw hands.
Mid-project. Time-sensitive. Naturally.
Stop code: 0x00000000 — vague enough to be insulting.
85% collected… unlike my deadline.
A computer screen displays a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) error message stating the system ran into a problem and needs to restart, with progress at 85%. Behind the error message, part of the Autodesk AutoCAD logo is visible, suggesting the crash occurred while using AutoCAD.

Picked up these locally made gems from Raub's Farm Market and gave them a little pan-fry love myself. Crispy edges, warm filling, total comfort. Nothing beats cooking up something local and delicious to fuel the afternoon.
A plate of golden-brown pierogies, pan-fried to a crisp and arranged neatly. The dumplings have slightly blistered edges and a warm, inviting sheen. They sit on a simple dish atop a rustic surface, suggesting a cozy, homemade lunch. Steam rises gently, hinting they were freshly cooked.

Born on this day in 2018, and stormed into our lives that November like the legend he was named after.

From the moment we brought him home, this Boston terrier has been all sass, all heart, and all snorts.
Collage of seven photos featuring Leroy Jenkins, a black and white Boston Terrier, in various playful and relaxed poses. He’s seen lounging indoors, sitting alertly, and playing with a blue ball on a grassy lawn. His expressive face and signature black-and-white markings highlight his sassy, spirited personality across each moment.

Does anyone else have this similar post-coding ritual? Or is it just me?

I've developed a quirky little habit whenever I solve a challenging coding problem. The moment my code works exactly as I want it to, I get up and walk away from my desk.
The image shows a computer screen with code written in a Lisp-like language, likely AutoLISP, used for AutoCAD automation. The code checks for a list of utilities and prints each item’s category and symbol. It also lists electrical drops from the project file. The text editor uses color highlighting to make the code easy to read.

I'm canceling because the platform has become oversaturated with AI-generated music and mainstream content controlled by major labels. It's increasingly difficult to discover authentic, independent artists that align with my tastes.

Meet Leroy! Sometimes we call him Leeroy Jenkins because, well, he tends to charge headfirst into things.

"A Language Older Than Words" by Entheogenic off their album "Dreamtime Physics"
The way they've woven in those samples creates such a unique and captivating rhythm. It blends seamlessly with the synths and that driving bass line, constructing a truly mesmerizing track.

My Torchbearer RPG books have finally arrived. So happy to add them to my collection of RPG books! I've been wanting to get my hands on these for ages. The concept and setting have always been so intriguing, and from what I've seen so far, they don't disappoint.

The intricate soundscapes are just mesmerizing. The beat is this hypnotic, pulsing thing, like a heartbeat in slow motion, but it also has this subtle, driving force that keeps you moving.

Age yourself with your first computer
This image depicts a retro computer setup against a backdrop of a starry night sky with a purple-pink gradient. Dominating the right side is a light-tan Commodore VIC-20 personal computer. Its keyboard is clearly visible, with the "COMMODORE VIC-20" label prominent below the space bar. To the left, slightly smaller, is a beige Commodore Datasette tape drive, used for storing data on cassette tapes. In the upper left corner, three stylized images represent game cartridges : "JUPITER LANDER," "GORF," and "SUPER SMASH" respectively. At the top center, the text "THE COMMODORE VIC-20" is written in a bold, yellow-outlined font, with "THE" and "COMMODORE" stacked vertically and smaller than "VIC-20," which is rendered in a bolder, blockier style. The overall aesthetic is reminiscent of 1980s computer graphics and design.

Just thinking about how much I love the sound design in good psy-ambient techno. It's like a sonic journey through inner space. Listening to Entheogenic right now and it's really hitting the spot.

#psyambient #techno #music #sounddesign #innerSpace #Entheogenic
The album cover features a striking design centered around a triangular prism, reminiscent of the iconic Pink Floyd "Dark Side of the Moon" album cover, but with a unique and modern twist. * Triangular Prism: The central focus is a solid, luminous triangular prism, standing vertically. It's not a flat triangle, but a three-dimensional object with visible side faces, giving it depth and presence. The prism is dark at the edges, with a lighter, almost glowing purple hue in the center. * Light Beams: Two beams of spectral light intersect the prism. * The beam entering from the left is a vibrant spectrum of warm colors – red, orange, and yellow – fanning out in a wide, textured band. * The beam exiting the prism on the right is a cooler, more blended spectrum of blues and purples, forming a swirling, fluid ribbon of light. * Background: The backdrop is a cosmic scene, featuring a dark expanse speckled with stars or nebulas, creating a sense of space and wonder. * Typography: The words "Enthymesis" and "entheogenic" are present. "Enthymesis" is written in a small, sans-serif font at the base of the prism, while "entheogenic" is prominently displayed in a stylized, handwritten font below. The cover evokes a sense of mysticism, spirituality, and the exploration of consciousness. The prism acts as a conduit for light and transformation, symbolizing the potential for inner exploration and enlightenment. The cosmic background adds to the grand, otherworldly feel. The use of contrasting warm and cool colors creates a dynamic and visually engaging composition. The design suggests a genre that might blend electronic music with ambient, psychedelic, or world music influences. It has a modern, new-age feel, while also drawing on imagery associated with classic psychedelic art.
