Some people are swung by the will of a nation.

Which One? —
It’s telling of the times when phone center menu systems have to use a generic term like, ‘If you’re affected by “the recent disaster”‘. …

‘Cause they don’t have any feelings —Kurt Cobain

School —
Today’s the first day of school for my boys. Though it’s only been 35 minutes, and they’re just in the other room, learning from their laptops, I’ve already checked off three items on my to-do list for today. I’m almost lost; not sure what to do. I usually have had at least 3 ‘opportunities’ to […]
On the Subject of Auto-correct and Curse Words —
Can we get a muthafuckin’ moment of silence…. for this small chronic break? Yeah…smartphones be leavin’ out these words, like they don’t exist. I treat these dictionaries that don’t accept these words like I do 7-up; I never have, and I never will! Let me express myself without direct and deliberate influence on the words […]
It must be running some kind of server… —
This morning, in the split-second between asleep and awake, a term presented itself to me strongly, as if I needed to remember it for some reason. It must be of utmost importance if the Theta realm put forth such energy to catapult it into my waking conscious mind… “Fettuccine Alfredo with a public IP”
Quarter ’til New —
My desktops, both virtual and physical, have been a mess. As has my mind. The pattern is still somewhat of a mystery but the symptoms are showing exceptionally bright this time around. I feel as if it’s all at a climax, I’m glad I took that motorcycle ride this morning (mitigation can be fun, even […]
Sometimes I stare at the ceiling and draw what appears —
These were from the other day: These are from 2013 when I first discovered that cartoon characters were haunting me through the walls:
Life —
I feel right now that life in its most productive state is a constant influx of change; Improvement, refining, learning. Stuff like that. With what I have been working on lately (Linux systems + network architecture) I have felt the feeling that breeds “MORE”. I am obsessed with efficiency. I drool at a shell script […]

“Art should not be subject to political pressure.” — Ethiopian singer Hachalu Hundessa
What if? (#1) —
What if when people die, they are able to “read” or somehow “teleport” into others’ minds that are still alive? Influence their decisions, give them little “clues” or whatever… I know, sounds like Schizophrenia, right? But seriously. What if?
Dear Oil and Coal Industries —
What are you going to do when you’re rich, but can’t afford to breathe?
Stargazer —
If, in some parallel universe, there existed an 8-bit video game about Mother Love Bone‘s quest for stardom – Stargazer would be the music that plays on the continue screen when you “die” (no pun intended…ugh..sorry Andy lol). I think this is because I feel it’s somewhat similar intro tune to what I remember was […]
My Current EDC —
Thought Process —
My thought process as I age is sort of like a never ending labyrinth of nested if statements.
Marijuana! —
Super C —
I don’t know if I could ever play 2 player with anyone besides my old friends Travis Senneff or Johnathan Faux. – I take my Super C strategies seriously. There has to be a strong link and sense of collective survival, otherwise I just would rather go it alone. No offense, it’s just easier that […]

Cat Ass Trophy —
When I woke up this morning I had a revelation.. “catastrophe” is like “cat ass trophy”.
Sin —
“The wages of sin are death, but after taxes are taken out, it’s more of a tired feeling” — Paula Poundstone (a)
Being Right —
If you’re going to tell someone they’re wrong, make *sure* you’re right – otherwise you’ll look like a fool.
TTL —

reCaptcha v3 —
I’m impressed with reCaptcha v3. I haven’t gotten any spam through my contact forms on various sites I manage since I installed it. The best part is that I don’t have to subject any innocent people to clicking on endless pictures of storefronts, cars and traffic signals. I fucking hate that shit. I hate it […]
Reddit Reposts —
It would be nice if Reddit kept track of posts you’ve seen and omitted them from your feed if someone else posted it.
I’ll try harder, I promise —
Feelings —
There are events in my life that have evoked immense feelings. These feelings are very much personal in that I cannot transfer them to another person in a loss-less format. Meaning, I cannot create the exact same feelings in someone that I felt myself during those events. And logically so – we are all individuals […]

Buzzwords —
“Hyper[insertwordhere]” is becoming annoying. I noticed this buzzword during the 2016 U.S. presidential elections and it seems to still be going strong. It’s annoying, but also interesting as a study in popular journalism trends. Trendsetters can use words like this to ‘boost’ their stories and ideas because of the effect of familiarity and repetition. Which […]
The Building (Dream) —
I had a dream this morning about a building. I had to go to the bathroom I had apparently been working I.T. in floors 1-3 of the building for the entirety of my career (20+ years) I went up to the 4th floor of the building (toward the top). When I got there, there were […]
