Runner. Dad. Love to punch a Nazi.
You Crypto bros, Nazis, Dudebros, MRAs get dick-punched then blocked. Don’t waste my time.

I don’t generally care when corporations fight one another in ads. But I can’t help but find AT&T commercials w Luke Wilson weird. He’s got a fake, weird accent, says “When you’re born out here…” and “I keep my boots clean by…” I’m like, huh? He was born in Dallas, went to private schools. Weird.

Hell yes. Voted for @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social!
Three votes in my household for her. Including my oldest daughter who was very excited to get her first ballot and had a chance to vote for a woman for mayor.

Got my ballot in the mail yesterday. This morning, I filled in the oval for @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social! It’s time for a mayor who will actually work, isn’t afraid of making difficult decisions, and who will spend more time on solving problems than just talking about them w Chamber types.

My daughter (15): These are good! What makes them Brazilian?
Me: They got waxed at the spa before going to Trader Joe’s.
Daughter (laughing): No more Reddit for you, Dad.

As a guy who doesn’t enjoy shopping, but who wants to look nice enough, I feel like I am scoring pretty well with the occasional Poshmark find. Boots last year, a few shirts, and today brand new jeans w tags, $45 delivered.

Unless, you write them an elaborate series of stories about the tooth fairy… which I found delayed the pounding into the room by quite some time! :-)

I’m making some homemade cardamom ice cream that will go between (store bought) molasses cookies to make what I hope is a delicious ice cream sandwich.

Got an email banning me from Reddit for 3 days claiming I threatened someone. I appealed saying, No, I responded to a threat by Hair Fuhrer’s son that if he engaged in violence, he might experience violence. That’s not a threat. My appeal also said, “You fucks platform Nazis and you ban me?” I won.

Got these shears because one or another reputable site recommended them as “good” for an affordable option. They were $20, and although new; they are certainly more substantial than my set that broke last week. We’ll see how they do spatchcocking chicken and helping w holiday dinners.

So this “invitation” just came in email. Funny, because I got kicked off Nextdoor years ago because I called out racist old coots in my neighborhood. I’m proud to have been booted, and wonder how this invite happened (unless the racist old farts’ friends are no longer the moderators).

My oldest is off to college in a few weeks, so we got in one more Dad/Daughter backpacking trip. We hiked up to Rampart Lakes in the Alpine Lakes Wilderness. The cutts, biting. Our campsite, flat. The views, spectacular. Hope I get more of these w her. College doesn’t take them away forever, right?

Damn right, I voted for @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social! Our do-nothing @mayorofseattle.bsky.social @bruceforseattle.bsky.social has accomplished little more than sweeps of homeless encampments and clutch pearls about graffiti. We need more housing, and I believe Katie will actually DO SOMETHING.

I can really only imagine the deep pain and betrayal my wife would feel if she found out this way that I had been listening to Coldplay.

Well, I survived The Weekend. Kinda boring to me but I’m obviously not the target demo. I couldn’t make out his voice above the bass. But I will say he seemed genuinely touched by the audience reaction to his first song. The whole thing was very wholesome. Buncha young ppl enjoying a show.

Saw this in my inbox this morning, and thought maybe the Wirecutter team moved into reporting on the vice president’s affairs.

It’s just me and the dog for 10 days, and since injury has me sidelined for a few days and I can’t run, he and I are going to work on my bad Tenkara cast on the Cedar. If you squint, you can pretend you’re not surrounded by 2M people.

Preparing to try tenkara on the Cedar tomorrow. I’ll bring my whiny Springer, Hawk, so we’ll see if he lets me wade or cries about not being velcro’d to my side.
