I feel like my previous post didn’t properly capture the grandeur of my Lock Screen.

A purple tinted rocky beach iOS Lock Screen.

I gave a short presentation on CSS Subgrid last night at the Astoria Tech Meetup. Lots of good conversations afterwards. Thanks to everyone who came out!

Grass Ass

I wrote a humor column in college for the Hofstra Chronicle under the pseudonym Silence Doless, a nod to Benjamin Franklin I didn't come up with. I was very proud of this work at the time. It's all … Read more

Don’t you love it when The Onion’s headlines are perennially appropriate?

Supreme Court Overturns ‘Right v. Wrong’. 🇺🇸

There’s always dudes air boxing at my local auto body shop.

NYC Pride Photos 2024

I watched the New York City pride parade yesterday, and got a few nice shots of celebration and joy. A great day. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ 🌈🌈🌈 Read more

I’m using a new photo for phone wallpaper. I took this photo, and I like the filter Apple suggested a lot. I have no memory of which beach this was, or why I was there.

TIL MLP. Instead of MVP, the Minimum Viable Product, it’s the Minimum Lovable Product. I like that.

I’ve beaten higher in Castlevania: Symphony of the Night (around 10% complete). I forgot to mention that the ROM I’m playing is the Japanese version, which means I have to look up what items do by their icon. On the plus side, it does help me ignore the story. 🕹️

Butthole Sun by Fartgarden. Is that anything? 🎵

As I was walking home, a giant rat ran under my foot. I fully stepped on a rat, I heard it squeak, and it vanished into an ally all before I realized there was rodents about. Me and my roommate laughed in disbelief for the rest of the walk.

Conan O’Brien Must Go is so good.

I bought my first ever pair of chucks. I’m digging them a lot. 👟

A shot of my legs in jeans and blue converse on my feet.

Getting my ass whipped at Magic: The Gathering at friendly local draft. The game has changed a lot in twenty years (who’d have thought?). Lots of fun still.

Our apartment is in the sauce. 🌶️

Three bottles of hot sauce. Empress ghost pepper maqaw, and Melinda’s black truffle a d fire roasted garlic and habanero.

As we all know, The Breeders kick ass. 🎵

The copyright takedown problem has large negative impacts on your favorite artists, and hence you, and gets worse I think because it’s abstract and legal and that’s always a safe haven for big corporate.

First time really listening to the lyrics to Jack & Diane.

Suckin’ on a chili dog outside the Tastee Freez.
Diane’s sittin’ on Jackie’s lap, he’s got his hands between her knees.
Jackie say, “Hey Diane, lets run off behind a shady tree.
Dribble off those Bobby Brooks slacks and do what I please”

I don’t know what’s more gross about this sex proposition, the one sided …do what I please or getting handsy while sucking a chili dog. 🎵 🌭

The phrase “Cranberry Wizard” popped into my head. Fun band name, or urethra magician?

Today is my second anniversary working for Lullabot. Joining the team is still one of the best decisions I’ve made. 😴🤖
