Back from Olympic National Park! Had an incredible time, every inch of the park is breathtakingly beautiful 😍

I've also identified my holy grail record: Lucy Gray by Envy on the Coast.

I love this album so damn much but there are less than 1k copies in the wild.. Pretty much everyone that has it isn't interested in selling and if they are they're asking for over $150 😭
Album art for the album Lucy Gray by Envy on the Coast. It features a blue background, on the bottom left there are two black balloons with skulls on them and on the top right there is the text "Envy on the Coast Lucy Gray".

Something fun I did while away was I got a turntable 😄 I've wanted one for a long time and figured what the hell, life's short.

It's been a blast finding stuff to listen to and getting to share the experience with my wife and kid
A turntable stand with records on the bottom shelf, two Edifier R1280T speakers on the middle shelf, and an Audio-Technica AT-LP60 turntable on top. Resting against the wall on top of the turn table is the cover for Take Me Back To Eden by Sleep Token.

My progress so far on my TOTEM build! Almost done with the switch sockets, then on to the microcontrollers.

It quickly became apparent that my soldering skills are very, very rusty. A few dodgy welds but everything should hopefully work 😅

Thankfully I have a backup board in case it doesn't

For real though December is probably my least productive month of the year 😅

Makes sense. Whenever I'm around people my own age I realize how little I have in common with them 🙃

I was talking to one of my buddies last week about how impatient I've been waiting for my RAM to come in and he gave me some PCBs for a TOTEM split keyboard.

A bunch of the parts I need will be in today, looking forward to dusting off my soldering iron!

The one and only time Lily has ever snuggled Poppy. She was not happy when we first brought Poppy home, but now that she's getting older and Poppy has calmed down a bit she's starting to tolerate her more ❤️

Lily likes to keep an eye on my progress while cleaning up the kitchen to make sure I don't start slacking off

Every time I go to the dentist this comic from The Far Side pops into my head
A comic from The Far Side. A man is reclining on a dentist's chair. His mouth is open with several tools and tubes protruding out of it. The man is looking up at the dentist with wide eyes. A dentist is standing over him with a tennis ball in his hand and his assistant is standing behind him holding another tool. The comic is captioned "Now open even wider, Mr. Stevens... Just out of curiosity, we're going to see if we can also cram in this tennis ball".

Clearly if I keep obsessively checking the order page it will arrive even sooner
A screenshot of an Amazon order. It says "Now arriving December 31. Previously expected January 3". Below the text is an image of the product - two sticks of RAM.

Genuinely surprised Crush++ isn't #1 since all of my top songs are by them. Oh well, still a great year for music!

One of my favorite parts of this game is all the silly robot shenanigans
A screenshot from the game Nier: Automata. Two groups of robots, 3 red and 3 blue, are on a stage fighting. There is a caption from one of the robots speaking that says "Die, Romo! Thou stupid asshole!" as they fight.

Been noticing this on the weekly/daily views for Follower Growth. Otherwise it's been awesome!
A screen shot of the Followers Growth view in blueview.app. It is set to show a 1 week time span in a bar chart. Instead of dates being shown on the x-axis, it shows "Invalid Date" along the entire axis.
