For those of you in the #pittsburgh and Western PA area, where/what are some established boots-on-the-ground groups that I can donate money, time, and resources to who are working against the fascist #ice operations happening nationally?

Besides speaking, writing, and protesting, what are some […]

I've got about 4.5 working days left in my current job. One big task to clear, a few little optional ones, and hopefully some recordings that my colleagues left behind can use.

While I'm sure I won't be able to tie up every loose end, it does feel like I'm leaving things in pretty good shape […]

There should be a "reverse caps" option on the phone keyboard so when you wanna ape an asinine comment you can do that easily, like bUT hER eMAILS

Important job update for me, because the hits just keep coming.

Wait, if I'm a DJ in that metaphor, am I *giving* the hits? Or just *taking* them? Depends on the genre, I guess. #laidoff #unionstrong #jobmarket […]

Spent most of my "quiet time" at work the last two weeks (since virtually nobody else was around and near zero meetings) trying to learn more about containers. Main goal: to test out pgtileserv.

Got Podman installed and several different kinds of containers running. (My machine is Windows and I […]

Insomnia struck again last night; been up since 4:30 am. But at least there's an advantage to being up early today: I can get the snowblowing done before work easily. #mnwx #snowtime

Last night's #insomniabrain topics:
1) what's the name of that cute little town I took my wife to last fall?
2) how does the second verse to "Walk on the Ocean" start?
3) What would it be like to host a house concert in my backyard?

Answers to the first two, which I absolutely HAD to look up […]

I am really really really really tired. At least this week I only work two days before a small vacation, road tripping to Colorado with my daughter so she can play for the state team in USA Ultimate's Youth Club Championship weekend. #dadlife #ultimate

I tell ya, NOTHING lifts my mood on a Friday afternoon than achieving #inboxzero at work. And I'm only working two days next week, so I have a chance of keeping it when I go on vacation!!

Since I'm now auto deleting posts over a month old (except pinned, so I'll pin this one)...it looks like I'm not posting much when you look at my profile. And honestly it's not like I post twenty times a day. But I *am* #onhere almost every day, and posting at least once most days.

All of this […]
