Got to watch Thunderbolts* last night. Loved it! A great addition to the MCU. Skilled actors delivering their best and a compelling final act. If this is the baseline for superhero movies, we're all doing alright.

Movies are awesome. I'm wanting to start a podcast discussing filmographies. But I know little of podcasting. What tips would you share? Even if you don't, what are some things you notice that your favorite podcasts do well?

Can't play Mario Kart so I thought I'd draw it.

Proud to reveal that my portfolio site has been redesigned. This is the barebones version, but I plan to make this a hobby of sorts, trying out new designs, tools, and ideas. It's my digital garden. Take a look. And then remember to take a look several months down the road.

Creating art is a great joy. No I haven't gotten famous from it. But leaning into the creation is the whole point. What gets shown here is secondary, maybe even tertiary. Maybe it's not even the point at all

Some days I'm an artist, some days I'm a software code-slinger. On others it's a pitchman, yet others it's none of the above.
