Life’s funny.

At the airport looking for some food I found a sushi bar. Last time I was there was with my best friend heading to Defcon over a decade ago.

Life was good. And different.

We drifted apart. He’s different now too. A bigot and a damn fool. We don’t speak anymore.

Life’s funny.

Forgot to bring my magnesium on a work trip so I’m about to have the working memory of half a goldfish, and not the front half

Can confirm. We did a hiking around Lake Elmo. Saw dogs. Pet dogs.

Photo of three purple tulips

Photo looking across the Sunken Garden, a long greenhouse room with water down the center and walkways and flowers surrounding. There is an animal skull with long horned amidst flowers.

Photo looking straight up to the top of a large glass arboretum dome, which looks almost like an eye

I need to renind you that the Como Arboretum is, in fact, very beautiful

One of the many things I love about my wife is that I’ll show her a picture like this and she’ll just instantly make the same face that the animal is making. Zero hesitation.

Man you know some whale was just chilling there like “… … … … ..OH FUCKING SHIT WHAT THE FUCK AAAAAAAAHHH!”

"From the pages of Jules Verne to the modern-day mission to the Moon, a new chapter of the exploration of our celestial neighbor is complete."

FUCK YEAH! GOOD CHUTES!

We’re watching the Artemis reentry and I just told my seven year old to wave out the window so we can see him on the live feed and he did 😭

an older man with a beard is saying fly you fools Alt: GIF of Gandalf the Grey, Mithrandir, hanging from a ledge formed by the broken bridge of Khazad-dûm in the Mines of Moria (which is the Westron, or Common Speech, name for Khazad-dûm) telling The Fellowship to “Fly, you fools” after the Balrog (also known as Durin’s Bane) destroys the bridge in their fight
