Baking is definitely therapeutic for me. I definitely have a bit of bias when placing the slices. Tried to turn it so it's less obvious 😅

Just saw Every Brilliant Thing and it was incredible. Tracee Ellis Ross was incredible. I laughed, I cried, I laughed plenty more. I highly recommend seeing it!

The cockerel wrangler made us all these cute glambags for the playa. I saw some opportunities to streamline some of the community tech management. Since there's been a tech fracturing and communities are now scattered across different platforms, we need a way connect with folks where they are.

I heard a ton of bells ringing this morning. I knew that #BostonMarathon was Monday so I searched to see what events were going on in Dorchester. I then learned about 26.True, a community-focused marathon and half-marathon that takes place actually through the streets of Boston! #marathon #26True

The "you can just do things" philosophy of atproto is spilling over to the rest of my life. I get super annoyed when I see plastic garbage stuck in trees when I'm out on my runs. For the ones I can reach, I now grab it and toss it. People! We can just do things!

I remember going to a workshop ten years ago in Sweden at NatMEG about high temperature SQUIDs. These sensors could be cooled using liquid nitrogen vs helium. A notable pursuit but I think these sensors were leapfrogged by optically-pumped MEG. #meg #neuroscience

Every year I host a brunch for friends in the city don't have plans for the holidays, it's known as Misfit Christmas. This year I made biscuits for breakfast sandwiches. They turned out 🔥🔥🔥 And of course, I made the rose apple tart, a fan favorite. Merry Christmas everyone and happy holiday!
