Costco has Serrano hams again! Every holiday party I'm invited to I'm showing up with one of these and a bottle of Spanish red wine.

I'd like to thank the foresight of the NFL schedulers for the noon Packer game tomorrow as to not interrupt the Brewers

I need a verdict from the fellow millennials. Is it still avocado toast when it's hash brown patties?

I made a tounge in "cheek" video about fisting hops during brew day and it was boosted for being "helpful"...

About once a year someone in my videos talks about how hops are inhibiting my testosterone and blah blah blah. I want to invite them to do some observations: 1. You see this hairline? If anything I could use MORE estrogen.

I had a joke about Chronicles (aka New World) of Darkness, but even referencing the game is a Breaking Point for a lot of you.

I just had the talk with my 8 year old. No, not that one. The one that I don't trust YouTube shows involving kids (even when syndicated on Disney+) because I don't know if the parents are abusing their children for content, and we don't want to reward bad parents.

I get that everyone loves raging against OneDrive because you want to save on your computer. But I'm on version 4 of a file that's shared between 5 departments across 3 companies. Maybe it would be good to link to one file everyone uses together in real time versus all these email attachments.

Text exchange with my friend. 
Friend: Who is the hat man?
Me: Meme/cryptid sleep paralysis demon that visits you after taking too much Benadryl
F: Interesting. I see shadow dogs

My Kindergartener is afraid of bugs. Ants, flys, anything. My wife started sarcastically naming them, and all of a sudden they're less scary to the kiddo.

I figured out why I love Star Wars Zero Company. It's X-Com, but Star Wars. Z-Com took the standard X-Com isometric tactics cover mechanics, put a Star Wars gleam on it, and updated a few mechanics to make the squad feel more cohesive with supporting actions.

Here's to everyone on Labor Day actually doing labor, time and a half or completely unpaid. You're the ones who keep this world moving.

It's a nice, deep, clear yellow with an extra dense white foam that is holding shape and getting gravity as it goes up out of the mouth of the tapered mug.

I'm excited for the MMA dude to fight the chimp. Yes, the human will win, obviously. The chimp has no concept of fighting other species for sport with rules or illegal moves, and will quickly get disqualified. But not before ripping apart his hands and all the skin off his face.

My wife put me on concussion protocol because this branch hit my head on the way down. ME! Batman! On this date of Feb 32nd, 1974!
It's a honking huge branch from a very dead birch tree. At its thickest it's like 8 inches in diameter and was close to 10 feet long. But the bit that got me couldn't have been more than 3 inches

Obligatory Costco hot dog with everything. Including the parm and red peppers!
What it says on the tin. Costco hot dog with diced onions, deli mustard, relish, ketchup, grated Parmesan cheese, and crushed red peppers. In the background there's also a slice of pepperoni pizza to catch any dropped toppings (unlikely)

I'm buying a shuttered funeral home and turning it into a restaurant called To Die For. The highlight is the crematorium converted into a brick pizza oven. With the sliding rack we could fit so many pizzas in it and be and to remove them without the obnoxiously long paddle.

I've been spending way too much time on social media, and I can feel it's wearing me down. So I picked up Dungeon Crawler Carl and am reading that instead of scrolling through the churn. And, honestly, I'm feeling better after only a few days.

Prepping for a 4 year old's birthday party. I don't think we have enough fruit...
Multiple containers of cut, fresh fruit. About 14 lbs watermelon, 3 lbs green grapes, 4 lbs strawberries, and 2 lbs mango. There's other food as well, but let's be honest, no kid is eating anything other than the fruit and cake

Donating blood today. They checked my status and informed me I'm going to hit 10 gallons by spring '27. So far I've donated enough to fully fill 6 people with blood and have some to spare. Hey friends, go out and save a life.

What made my college life both entertaining and self destructive was caving to peer pressure. So here I am with my wife's glass of mead, my BBA stout, and starting Dungeon Crawler Carl. Much like an actual RPG, I'm struggling in the tutorial knowing if I skip it I'm going to be confused later.

Mixed berry whatever #homebrew #mead. A salvaged trad that tasted meaty from a higher nutrient regiment I was testing that I dumped about 4lbs of frozen berries I had. Overall it's a little thin and one note. Oak and vanilla would definitely make it better. But this is for fun, not competitions.

I've been slacking with #homebrew content. But here's my latest item, Fadeorade! 5% hard seltzer, stabilized, and Gatorade powder dumped in for flavor, color and sweetness (hence stabilizing). This is what powered us last weekend working an outdoor festival.
A mysterious green liquid in a plastic cup that's my newest invention, Faderade! Sitting on top of a rough, wooden bar top that clearly has only been washed with rain water and spilled beers

AI writing is not em dash — it's weird comparisons and lists. It's the rule of three every time with new, exciting lines per sentence. It's the feeling of a Ted Talk noon opener that says a lot without saying anything.

Wife opening fridge: Did you go grocery shopping over your lunch again? Me: Ya, I need no time to eat and it's practically empty. W: Did you eat before shopping? M: No, I wasn't hungry. Why? Containers of cheese curds, snacks, and craving take and heat options come from the fridge W: No reason.
