Current status: in a hotel bar and apparently kids with the alpaca haircuts are old enough to drink now. 💀

Okay, Austin, look, it is the last week of fuckin SEPTEMBER. 94 Fahrenheit degrees is just too damn many degrees for this time of year.

And once again, my flight arrives early, only to not have a free gate to deboard at. _sigh_ I would almost rather be on time or slightly late and be able to roll into a gate, rather than sitting on the tarmac for who knows how long.

Gentlebeings of the Internet, I give you Hopalong, furthermore known as Sir Hop-A-Lot, also called Hops. (The Cat Distribution System decided to deliver him via a brewery and he’s a leapy little fella so here we are.)

We'd probably make some strides in the culture war if the NPR left stopped pretending Americana wasn't country. You're calling your comic books "graphic novels" champ.

The worst thing is people are coming to the house in about ten minutes and I KNOW he is gonna jump off me and run to the door when that happens, and probably claw the shit out of my shoulder.

“Oh that’s so cute, he’s perched on my shoulder purring”, I thought. And then he went to sleep and y’all I may need an intervention.

We have been visited by the Cat Distribution System.

My laptop just downloaded 18+ gee bees of “new updates”, and then popped a “unable to prepare file for installation, try again error” dialog — which I have never seen before — and when I dismissed the error and tried again, it’s re-downloading all them gee bees again 😭

ATTENTION BLUESKY! Annie says they are really hoping to boost the number of artists (crew, performers, creative teams, anyone) outside New York who are filling this out to get a broader sampling. If you are in the arts please take a second and fill this out!

Getting some decent rain and wind (by Midwest standards), which is quite a lot for the PNW. Hoping my Doug firs don’t feel the need to drop any branches on the house overnight 🤞 #SalemOr #orWx

Reminder that in Canada upon becoming an engineer you get an iron ring made of a collapsed bridge, purposely designed to be uncomfortable, to remind you that your ethics demand you give a fuck even about the boring grudgework of such as double-checking your math. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iron_Ring

9/25 is #DollyDay

A meme featuring Dolly Parton standing in a brightly lit kitchen wearing a pink-and-white gingham shirt and a floral apron. She is smiling while rolling out dough on a counter with a wooden rolling pin. Text at the top reads: "9/25 IS DOLLY DAY". Text at the bottom reads: "DON'T FORGET TO LEAVE OUT SOME BANANA PUDDING AND SWEET TEA".

Oh sorry, that wasn’t an attempt to get you to out it, just a local recognizing game.

At my undergrad alma mater, the University of Iowa, there was a pedestrian tunnel near the student union, that went under a train track. I remember walking through it, late spring semester 1990, and somebody had graffitied “Jim Henson died for your sins” on the side of it.

This, for people who don't follow US soccer, is the coach of the Seattle Sounders donating to the GoFundMe of the fields director at Starfire Sports (where the Sounders used to train), who was just abducted by ICE.

Once again: appreciate what you do. Hope you see a way to keep doin’ it, understand if you don’t. (But what do you mean I need to stop drinkin’ and gettin’ high cuz I’m in my mid 50s, dammit.) Peace out, RCTID

A lot of the significant level-up events in my career are directly traceable back to incidents where i not only said I was wrong, but apologized for it.

that genehack guy from that dead bird site @extremely.website · 23/09/2026

But gotdam the rage at somebody taking something I spent time on producing, and clearly feeding it into a slopchopper without reading it, and then returning the slopchopper output to me as their own, *without reading it*, when the first several factual assertions in that output were WRONG.

...then went to the local about it (because I was still kinda mad), saw some frens, met a person in from out of town and had a nice chat, and feel much better.

I had a frustrating experience at work today (which, yes, directly related to the tech de jour). I was mad, so I went to the gym about it, came home, made dinner, cleaned all that up, wrote down some thoughts for a follow-up meeting tomorrow...

Kitchen sponge to the rescue, obviously, but I brain locked for a solid 30 seconds, staring at the water coming out the spigot and wondering, how do I spray the side of that thing?

020

that genehack guy from that dead bird site @extremely.website · 23/09/2026

We have one of those fancy kitchen faucets where the spigot is on the end of an extendable hose - like a combo of the usual faucet and a sprayer. Tonight I managed to splash some of the sauce I was making on the side of the spigot and frens. I think I found a design flaw.

Pleased to hear the news that the #SalemOr City Council passed a data center moratorium last night. Fight's not over, but that's a big win for the Side of the Good.
