why does sam altman always look like his soul got sucked out by some kind of red skull nazi time portal? #openai #nazitimeportal

my dad found a pretty wild medical text at a local charity shop

well, got one dvd burned. waiting on some new discs to do the others. in the meantime, putting the dvd covers together. difficult to find cases in stores nearby, so had to cannibalize some old wii games and movies

today i’m working flat on my back. standing desks aren’t just good for standing!

this week, the kei truck hauled: - antique bed + mattress - couch + large cat condo - dresser, desk, chairs, shelves, misc (helped family move) - several hundred KG of cement + forms - corner display hutch

haha wow — the ivy that covers the wall outside is making its way inside!

wish i’d gotten a shot of this raven spreading its wings, but it looked like a badass medieval omen up there

after years of wanting one, just bought a used roli seaboard off a local reverb guy, and it is so fun to mess around with!

found an old photo of myself from back when we were recording the false heroics “salvation navy” album. i miss that cardigan!

friends gave us tickets to the blue jays / royals game tonight at the skydome. ultra nosebleed sears (only two rows behind us) but still a surprisingly good view, and probably not as loud since we were above/behind the speaker arrays

the foundation appleTV series is surprisingly good! loved the books as a kid. it's been a while, so not sure how close it is to the source material, but it feels well-written, well-acted, and it's visually stunning.

things i desire, a thread:

home depot parking lot. two 4x4 pickups with the same bed size. which way western man?

TBT to when the very idea of ONLY A SINGLE MAPLE LEAF on the canadian flag was a front page shocker. (found this newspaper from 1964 stuffed in our old chimney flue)

a sampling of a few of the titles i just added:

winni’s been on my lap most of the day — irritatingly, i get up to move around every hour or so, but then she’s back!

nice, pretty similar! i like whatever this model is. looks newer than my 91 acty but not weirdly modern in front like most of the later ones

hello, bluesky! i'm also @sabbatical on twitter and @[email protected] on mastodon, but finally giving this place the old college try. if you use this place much, what made it work well for you? tips appreciated!
