I help make a video game (Senior Game Designer II, WoW). Views expressed are not those of my employer. Cats, books, games, anime, MN sports, sumo, and other assorted nonsense.

Local lab scans of my first birding roll in the F5 (24 shots of deeply expired Superia 400 from the fridge) just landed in my email.

Bao is on the move (and very fast)! The adorable otter pup is starting to explore more habitats at the Asian Forest Sanctuary. Here is one minute of baby Bao exploring the indoor Dayroom for the first time. With rotating spaces, there’s always something new to sniff, splash and investigate. 🌿💦

Got bareknuckled in the discord for a sec so it's time to step away and snuggle the cats. Can't be doing that at my age.

Probably the biggest takeaway I have from the past 5-6 years: spend on infrastructure, and don't wait and do a bunch of durdling when an issue crops up. Wish I could tell my past self not to be a goddamned cheapskate and fork over immediately.
