Glad to see increased ICE hiring and detention. This should definitely decrease my absurd health insurance/health care costs. Fantastic job America!

Violins really need to be used more in alternative/modern-rock music.

Why don't I already know Man/Woman/Chainsaw? Why am I just now hearing this?

In that relaxed bliss state that happens after a particularly good weekend. Hopefully I can maintain this for as long as possible as I push back into the workweek...

I really hope in retirement, I'll get to do all of the random little nerdy projects that I really can't justify working on in my current existence. #freelance #creating #gamedev #art

The songbirds are doing a fantastic job this morning.

Trying to figure out what I should make for dinner. No ideas, but here is some pasta I made the other day....

Drempd @drempd.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

It's kind of just one of those days where I'm staring out the window a lot. I should probably be looking at my monitor, but everything outside is far more interesting to me at the moment.

Drempd @drempd.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

The user experience of things is probably going to count a lot more in the age of AI. Since there will just be more "stuff" out there, good UX is probably going to be an important differentiator. #ux #webdesign

Drempd @drempd.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

Working on a Sunday morning for a couple hours isn't really all that bad. I'm making up for a few random outings during the work week, including a family happy hour, and some time with the little one, so I think it was all worth it. #freelance

Drempd @drempd.bsky.social · 17/09/2026

Had to make the most of the morning gray clouds. Would love a latte while watching it rain outside, but we work with what we got here in San Diego.

God I hate leafblowers.

Drempd @drempd.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

I spent a few days in the trees, and had easy access to a couple small trails for random wandering. I really need better access to random wandering trails in normal life.

Drempd @drempd.bsky.social · 12/09/2026

Another issue with using AI: It seems to enable my tendencies to do too much. I can now do so many things, far more quickly, and I have such a backlog of random projects I'd like to work on and explore. Gotta pace myself... #ai #sideprojects

Drempd @drempd.bsky.social · 11/09/2026

I kind of want to make a dopamine website where people can "buy" things for society -- like logic and reasoning courses in high school, or benches to be placed on streets, trails through neighborhood wild-spaces, etc...

Drempd @drempd.bsky.social · 11/09/2026

Sometimes it's not about working on what you really should be working on. It's working on the thing that let's you get into the flow. #productivity #freelance

Found myself in Tuolumne Meadows this past weekend. Took a short walk, and enjoyed the mountains. #Yosemite #camping #mountains

Trying to maintain my zen-like state after four fantastic days off. Ignoring my emails for a little while longer should help... #daysoff #laborday #freelance

Too hot for a run out there...but I did it anyways.

I'm pretty sure I'm not drinking enough wine these days.

Drempd @drempd.bsky.social · 26/08/2026

Why must I be interested in so many things? It can really make things difficult.

Drempd @drempd.bsky.social · 25/08/2026

It's honestly hard being part of a country that is doing some pretty questionable things currently. Ideally I'm someone who helps make the world a better place, or at least not make it worse, but just my basic existence, and contributions to this system, isn't lining up with that goal.

010

Drempd @drempd.bsky.social · 21/08/2026

Just one of those days where I've done everything except what I was supposed to be working on. At least it's Friday.

Drempd @drempd.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

I need to get out on more small adventures, so, a quick ride out to the beach for my morning break. #sandiego #socal #biking

I really just want to be driving through some lush, green mountains right now.

Really missing the PNW right now. A picture from a recent camping trip near Mt Rainier. #forestfriday #pnw #camping #washington

One of those periods where no matter how much work I do, it doesn't seem to change the amount of work that I have to do. I guess that's a good thing. #freelance

I'm always a little surprised when I hear that people still use X.

Just wishing I were in the mountains somewhere....

Drempd @drempd.bsky.social · 29/05/2026

I can't believe I've had to listen to donald trump for like the past nine or ten years, and we still have at least a few left. I feel like the universe owes me something pretty big in return.

Drempd @drempd.bsky.social · 25/05/2026

The recognition that we most likely live in a deterministic universe often times lifts my mood quite a bit.

Just really like this arrangement of things. #sandiego #plants #urbanism

It's incredible what a nice run can do for your mood. Especially on such a beautiful day. #running

Someone should create a tool so I know how popular (or not) a band is.

I should be coding some things, but Friday is really best spent designing stuff. I think the coding can wait... #ux #friday #justwanttomakenicethings

Drempd @drempd.bsky.social · 20/05/2026

I'm always kind of surprised how many people don't really understand supply and demand. I feel like if more people really understood that little bit of economics, it would have a pretty big, positive impact on society.

I feel like we're all microdosing anxiety these days.

After a few days of heavy May Gray, I'm so happy to wake up to beautiful blue sky and sun. I think the birds are liking it too. #sandiego #socal

Added Brioche French Toast to the repertoire recently (this is actually Challah French Toast since I was testing both. Brioche is a bit better). #food #breakfast

Drempd @drempd.bsky.social · 14/05/2026

I sometimes lie to AI, and tell it that what it did worked out well, just so it doesn't feel bad that it didn't quite get it right.

Drempd @drempd.bsky.social · 13/05/2026

"Ballroom Republicans" - I really like this pejorative. So much meaning in just a couple of words, and unfortunately is completely accurate. (and yeah, I kind of just wanted to use the word "pejorative" today) #iran #trump #inflation

Far too many websites have sacrificed good, elegant design for whizbang interactive elements. #webdesign #ux

I spent Saturday, in a hammock, just looking up through these oak trees. I miss Saturday. #nature #trees #weekend

AI gets a lot of hate, but I use it quite frequently, and every once in a while I'm just absolutely astounded at how good it can be. It's honestly a pretty incredible technology.

Some of the sidewalks I get to walk frequently are quite beautiful. #urbanism #sandiego

I'm looking forward to the summer, and exploring more little roads like this in the Pacific Northwest. Taken a few years ago, out some random forest service road that I was exploring by bike. #ForestFriday #pnw #gravelgrinding

It's that time of year where it's hard to tell what kind of coffee I'll be getting today. Will it stay cloudy, which will result in a latte at the sit-down place? Will the clouds break up, which will prompt a Nitro and a walk around the neighborhood? I can't wait to find out... #coffee #sandiego
