I make 1s and 0s as a technical product manager and software engineer. I used to (and still do!) write words. Once caught a level 21 Pikachu, it was awesome.

Minneapolis. Consultant. Ex: Blizzard, Penske, AOL

All opinions are mine.
This is me in 2001.

We were not the same.

… yup.

If you fast forward the video via scrubbing or playback speed, you can see the magnetic waves move!

So cool!!

Recorder on my iPhone 16 and a camera stand.

@xylaria.vg not sure of the accuracy of this, saw it just now on the fb hellsite. But maybe something?

The Earth had entered time time-warp conduit. All humanity did was ohh and ahh at the colors in the sky.

The universe reached down and lit the air on fire, but nothing burned, only glowed.

Aura in Minneapolis/Minnesota is insane.

Insane aura tonight. Only 5 miles north of St. Paul!

I was waylaid by a pack of wild dogs. They killed Imogen and then me.

Gotta love games that just don't give af, lol.

I remember reading Gorion's Scroll at the end of my first session with this game, and immediately going "who is this E?"

That one question opened a HUGE world of great stories that I'm still reading today. Baldur's Gate really set the tone for massive world building through vidya games.

Starting something I've wanted to for years...

Play through the entire Baldur's Gate games on one character (imported or remade).

A chaotically good half-elf conjurer with high intelligence and charisma, and a strong inclination for slinging magic missiles. The character I always played as a kid.

12. It feels like 12.

Happy winter, Minnesota! 🤷

Don’t use your car for 5 minutes and stay 10 feet away or the system update will fail.

For those in CompSci adjacent professions, after a good bit of career, have any of you gone back and tried your hand at Knuth’s Art of Computer Programming?

I did sone in college, but by no means did I understand everything. Now I look at something like this and I think I could do in a couple days?

The next Dem nominee for President needs to run on bulldozing his fascist ballroom and restoring the White House.

Not even kidding. We cannot let Trump control our our signs and simulacrum more than he already is.

Pathic @cnn.com homepage stories right now. Nothing in the lead spots about the protests, Trump's AI shit dream, WH making fun on dem leaders, etc... But it was "deplorables" all the time in 2016.

We need to reform our society so this dereliction of civic responsibility never happens again.

Family is protesting at the #NoKings Minneapolis rally!

I’m the frog. 🐸 😀😎😎😎

Y’all have no idea how proud of myself I am. Homemade Pokémon birthday treats for Max.

First thing I’ve baked and decorated in my life in any serious way.
October 15, 2025 at 8:31 PM
Happy Birthday, Max!

My kiddo turns 7 today. And my god do I feel old. His cousin is seven years older than him (now about to enter high school and is following in his dad and my footsteps), and I vividly remember him holding Max when he was born. So same age as the picture I’ve had up forever. ☠️🪦

Stop what you’re doing and listen to 15 seconds of cat purrs. The sun must be very good today.
