He recorded the audio narration for his memoir “Vagabond”. It is an enrapturing listen; filled with charming tales and wisdom of a life thoroughly lived.

His mind is sharp as ever, his mastery of language match his passion for the written and spoken word.

He has found a way forward.

Every time this shows up I have to watch it again and everytime my amazement and sense of wonder is renewed.

Dang sir. You just sold a cookbook.

This is the first time you’ve crossed my feed. Your narration is fabulous.

My wife saw what I think is a corpo rocket this morning.

Reflecting on how much I actually ended up following, enjoying, and appreciating the Artemis II mission (particularly, the deep humanity of it all), I realize it’s the billionaire bros I’m sick of.

Let’s launch them towards the sun.

This is good

surprising to see Australia politics as a trending subject on Bsky above Vance.

What did I miss?

Serious though, being told before I messed with Tube electronics the critical need to discharge the capacitor or (maybe) die was advice I was very grateful for.

You’ve heard of ‘Jerry-riggin’ now get ready for ‘Jason-lambin!’

And if you’re lucky, by day 10 the dreams manifest corporeal beings amidst the meatspace as you are easily annoyed and agitated by very small things.

Then the crying begins.

Antibiotics are awesome, but hella weird sometimes.

Every so often the “For You” feed really and truly is for me.

Everybody wants pepperoni but no one wants to eat the pepperoni.

3, 11, 13.

Like please, just let me get a cheese and a supreme. The older they get the more flaws mine find with the pepperoni.

I am gladdened you’re so active here because I had to stop the Reddit dopamine feed :)

This is so far a 4-lb stomach bug!

Recall watching lots of your stuff on Reddit. The process work here is incredibly fine detail. So much effort. A++

….Q’s pending mortality, and his affection towards humanity…. And this season provided an alternate universe to alternate universes that set a precedent of telling stories using the same characters, but differently. Like - we’d later see in the “slightly more purple universe” of Lower Decks.

I really liked S3 of Picard. I’m a nostalgic fool, that is fine. But, with some time, S1 disappoints as it was Mass Effect; in some cases, perhaps criminally so.

S2 - I’m more fond of than many, it’s the one I reflect on most. The urgent immigrant and fascism parallels /2

May that pass quickly and your beacon be found. Or, a new one be swiftly made.

And you, ours.

That would place this stage of parenthood in an entirely different realm, for sure.

She won’t grow overnight. Once she’s established, you’ll be able to move her to a new home. August, September if my horticulturist wife is to be trusted.

If for Pokopia in this moment of historical events alone, I hope you find something that soothes all the soul.

For some exploration in journals today:

what the heck was up with my fever dreams last night? My wife was mad at me for monitoring a safety concern at work, told me not to come home.

So, I visited an Art college. A student turned herself and her older husband into a freeze dried framed project.

A pink carrying case with speaker holes on the side contains a box that atop sits the “Neighborhood Trolley” from Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood - a red and gold box car.

Unbeknownst to me, Mom had ordered the Tonie (still not totally sold on this thing), and it’s the only one so far our almost 3 yo is just leaving on and listening to. Hearing some of these songs in our background might be causing nostalgia onions to be cut.

Congratulations and welcome.

Sick Saturday saw us rewatch some Mister Roger’s’ Neighborhood. The oldest protested loudly, but soon found herself pacified by the mild/mannered tones and talk that come from the legend.

Baby Yo-Yo Ma’s episode is wonderful. I mean, there all wonderful.

Sick Saturday begins with also sick daughter forcing FNAF 2 on me. Now I do love a good corny movie, so let’s go.

Had to double take at Wayne Knight though. Dude looks cute as heck since last time I’ve seen him in something. 110 pounds down over 33 years apparently.

Pragmata does look awesome. But golly Pokopia has consumed my non-working, non-parental duties.

Reshaping the areas I’ve unlocked and attempting to develop logical flows of traffic, pathing, town centers, shops….

Seeing a Pokemon use a cash register nearly fixed me.

Once they made our theatre’s movie seats comfortable, I knew I was paying $20 for a nap ticket.

Oh wow that is an awesome observation.

I don’t like fireworks.

But I will be launching as well that night.

Look, I’ve got to hope that he is on the brink of death.
