I’ve lost track of breweries to avoid. So many brands I love bought by conglomerates. Craft beer options in the liquor stores where I live in NM are immediately suspect because I don’t trust the owners to know the product. Was in Ft. Collins last weekend and felt like a kid in a candy store.

10/10 - would recommend. I’d say it even air conditions the garage in the summer but the garage gets so friggin’ hot you really can’t tell.

Well, you taught me something today. I bought this a couple of years ago with no context just because I wanted something to put up for Dia de Los Muertos, a popular holiday here in New Mexico. Now I know infinitely more about it than I did before.

Nice brewing rig! Brings back some memories I think are overdue to be relived.

Many thanks to @historyhoarder.bsky.social for providing me and my coworker with an impromptu tour of the Pacific Pinball Museum! And thanks to @pacificpinball.bsky.social for making such a great collection of entertainment history available to the public. We had a great time! Dog Soccer FTW!

@historyhoarder.bsky.social I just realized I am staying 20 minutes from the museum! I’m only here until Wednesday afternoon, so I will make an effort to come by Tuesday after work.

You never know when your words of encouragement might land perfectly and in turn create a new generation of people who pay that forward. I’m so happy you got the encouragement you needed when you needed it, and I love that you encourage others in return. Thank you!

I find myself back in the Pacific time zone and reporting tomorrow to a new company who doesn’t want me there until 9 AM. Some poor diner waitress is going to be seeing a lot of my ugly mug over the next few days.

So if you use Verizon for your cell service, you might try going into the app and requesting the PIN to transfer your service to see if they’ll offer you a 12 month discount.

Also managed to score a couple ft3 of wood chips after a neighbor across the street had their trees trimmed. The contractor was not bothered at all to dump them in my yard before they wrapped up for the day. Exchanged contact info, showed him how to open the gate. Please, anytime, ese.

The electric dryer is next on the list for replacement with a heat pump, and after that it’ll be an EV, but one step at a time, amirite?

I would like to formally thank @techconnectify.bsky.social for normalizing what I previously believed were crazy-ass expectations of how our homes should work. Seriously, bro, thank you. I now have heat pump heating and cooling, a heat pump water heater, and an induction cooktop and electric oven.

Officially putting more power into then grid than consuming. I have been wanting to do this for a very long time.
A screenshot of the amount of solar power being generated, consumed, and shipped back to the grid, with an emphasis on 3.8 kw being generated vs. 3.2 kw being sent back to the grid.

Playing VEIN, dropping acid in-game and watching Night of the Living Dead on an in-game TV screen. I can’t express how much this speaks to my soul.

Tried to buy some festive soldering kits from Belgium. The seller has spent €250 and three days trying to find a shipper who will deliver them to me, to no avail. What a stupid fuxking problem to have.

I mean, it’s offensive they missed two consecutive chances to outright win the game, but I might be a bit jaded this morning.

I’m going to be honest, I stopped watching the Mariners a long time ago. They built Safeco (I’m still going to call it that), and I went to a bunch of games there that I really enjoyed, but after sitting in center field for that game 5, everything after felt like a let down. That 15 inn. tho? Woof!

Having been at that game, I can’t believe it’s taken 30 years for the Ms to finally surpass it. Kind of makes me wish I was still living there.

Dear lord, it’s been 30 years since I was at the game that got the Ms to the ALCS for the first time. 30 years. FFS.

Look, I remember the Ms putting Randy Johnson in as a reliever in the single game playoff in 1995, and we all know how that worked out.

I couldn’t watch the game live, only via Google, and JFC.

That's a wrap on the 2025 monsoon season. ~75% of New Mexico ended with near to above average rainfall! Some mountain ranges picked up >20" of rain! Northwest New Mexico missed out on most of the monsoon this year with <50% of their average rainfall.

A record number of Flash Flood Warning were issued in New Mexico during this year's monsoon season. 379 in total, beating the old record from 2022 by just 13 warnings. Lincoln County, where Ruidoso is, had the second highest on record. Props to the NWS offices in New Mexico!

Albuquerque had consistent and overall above average dew points almost all monsoon season. Despite that, we ended up 1.41" below average with 3.07" of rain this year. The 32nd driest monsoon on record of 134 years. It was also the 5th warmest.

Tomorrow will be the delivery of last major component of my home energy overhaul, the heat pump. MFers, this kind of project has been my dream for like 20 years, and I’d like to thank this shitty-ass, myopic administration for making it happen. I should never pay another gas or electric bill again.

I struggle with thoughts of afterlife. Tonight, in a venue I would love nothing more than to share with an old friend, I can’t, and I want to be okay with that. Jeff, bro, I miss you, and tho you will never know I said this, I say it anyway. I say it into the ether and hope I’m wrong.

A couple of years ago I bought a cassette player from someone on Craigslist and the guy offered to sell me a box of tapes, both commercially produced and someone’s mix tapes. I just put in a random mix tape and am now unexpectedly listening to the Star Wars soundtrack.

Mexican chile crisp, and I already want to do it all over again, but better.
A black, red, and yellow mix of small bits in a pot. It is a mix of different chiles, garlic, shallots, pepitas, and sesame seeds, all brought together with heat and oil to make a Mexican chile crisp.
