I bought some neat old locks today. And I spent more than I should have doing it. If you know about these, tell me!

Little bit of the monthly locksport meetup, repining to make things harder on myself. I like the pain.

I'm no stranger to travel. I spent a number of years working for a hotel company and traveling the country professionally. But that was nearly 10 years ago. Sometimes I glorify travel in my mind and forget the reality, but man I've done 6 cons this year, still have at least one more, and I'm TIRED.

Not only was the costume perfect, he had the entire animation cycle down as well. People were stopping him for photos and he would perfectly pose. Awesome.

Our friends at Sparrows lockpicks helped me get my hands on 10 of their revolver trainers. Picked my way around, excited to repin and keep going. Check it out here: www.sparrowslockpicks.com/products/the... #totallynotshilling

This has got to be something special for that low a price.

I didn't buy too much mixer, I simply bought too little desk

Taters @ Large @taters.brilliantconmen.com · 28/07/2026

Man this year is a lot of cons for me, already up to 4 and I've got at least one more scheduled for August!

Everyone always asks me, after an event, where to get picks and locks. So, this is that: the "Where do I get picks and locks" guide, as of July 2026. Please, always check Toool's site for CI products, especially if you're a member and getting the discount! 1/12

Man I start to feel old by GDQ Friday

Taters @ Large @taters.brilliantconmen.com · 08/07/2026

The thing I've found the most interesting about GDQ over the years is seeing how many of my fellow gamers can't figure out how to flush a fucking toilet

I was taught to play bridge in the hotel bar

One of life's unexpected little pleasures is shaving off the con beard because you're too much of a piece of shit to pack a shaving kit

Oh shit...is it time to get ready to teach lockpicking at AGDQ again? It is!

And with the puppy back in his bed in the living room, I'm officially "back" and ready to remember why I wanted to go on vacation in the first place

Taters @ Large @taters.brilliantconmen.com · 14/07/2025

Back home, fell nearly directly into bed. 16 down, another....large sum left to go

Taters @ Large @taters.brilliantconmen.com · 13/07/2025

GDQ is the laughter. The moments together. The people. The stories and the memories that will hopefully live forever. I'm drawing my 16th to a close, and I still feel love for the event every time. From open to close. I love you all and I don't think I say that enough. Thanks for being in my life
