making sure you saw this
A Facebook post by the useless and corrupt representative Doug LaMalfa (who will almost certainly lose his seat) that reads: "I'm disappointed in tonight's results. Our constitution lost out to a pile of money and shameful deception, in one of the most blatant power grabs l've ever seen. Should these results stick, the imbalance in California between rural and urban voices will get that much worse, essentially silencing our portion of the state. Those of us who support fair maps will continue to oppose Newsom's scheme, and we expect to file suit on Wednesday. I hope and expect the courts will see this for what it is-blatantly corrupt and unconstitutional. Through the court or a miraculous change in the vote, I hope the independently drawn lines remain in place, rather than those that were dreamed up in a back room by a termed-out state legislator looking for a new job along with the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee."

San Diego Sunset
Black silhouettes of palm trees and power lines against an orange to gray blue gradient sunset. You can see some light reflecting off of parked cars Dimly lit intersection with black silhouettes of palm trees and a yield sign against an orange to dark blue gradient sunset. You can see far away city lights below the dark horizon Black silhouettes of power lines agains an orange to gray blue gradient sunset. You can see reflection of the sunset off of a parked car

this book is honestly great, guys were funny as hell in 500 BC
A picture of a page from the book "The Persian Wars" by Herodotus. There is highlighted passage that reads: "Amasis farted and said, 'Take that back to your master."

Liking the experimental typography in this parking garage
Concrete floor of an underground parking lot, there is a black box painted on it with the word “compact” poorly stenciled in white twice inside but is offset creating a weird illegible but cool mess of shapes

Addicted to this stuff
A jar with a new batch of pickled red onions, jalapeños and serrano peppers. There is dried basil, coriander seed, mustard seed, black peppercorns, bay leaves, maple syrup and salt in there too. It is better than any drug

I seriously hate this guy now
Screenshot of my podcast app showing an shitty A16Z podcast titled: "Rick Rubin: Vibe Coding is the Punk Rock of Software" which isn't a thing anyone should be saying ever

Eastern Sierras looking like a fantasy painting right now
A green meadow extending to blue mountains topped in snow below a blue sky. The sun is low and casting shadows between the peaks of the range.

Crazy clouds today at the preserve

just going to use this as excise to show my setup
Cleanest pic I have of my home setup - LG Ultrafine 5k, Mac mini M1 (replaced it with M2 Studio since this picture was taken), random mediocre detached 9-key numpad, apple trackpad, Realforce TKL A / R2TLA, and a goofy Razer Deathadder Pro gamer mouse (I love it)

Forgot to post these crazy colors from the Lompoc coast this winter
Slightly up from a beach in Lompoc the ground is covered in patches of weird but beautiful plants in different colors - orange, green, yellow, sage etc. A greenish ocean is in the background with waves breaking and the sky is a hazy winter gray Slightly up from a beach in Lompoc the ground is covered in patches of weird but beautiful plants in different colors - orange, neon green, yellow, burned purple etc. A greenish ocean is in the background with waves breaking

met some pretty special computers today!
photo of a restored Acorn Risc PC600, inside the Risc OS environment it is also running a windows emulator using an internal 486 pci card. It may appear to be kind of a boring computer but it is actually extremely cool photo of an original Grid laptop computer, it is black and although it is turned off, it is listed as having the super cool glowing yellow screen which I love. Its looks like a special computer but just runs DOS which is kind of boring Really old computer, I am guessing it is tube based. The form factor is like a desk with a few cool buttons and large aqua colored panel. It looks like high quality machined aluminum. Fans of the tv show Severance would probably love this thing

dark silhouettes of a party on a balcony at sunset in San Diego. The sky is deep gold and the sun is molten yellow peaking between a range of palm trees. Behind it all is the sea

Saw some beautiful country this weekend
wide angle view of the far off Eastern Sierras, they are blue with snow under a clear afternoon sky. There's a low sloping valley, flat with brush and carved by a creek coming from the mountains. The ground is dense with gold and olive green shrubs and grasses A vertically framed shot with a backdrop containing the Eastern Sierras, they are blue with snow under a clear afternoon sky. The immediate horizon is a rocky ridge of large smooth boulders. Below it are gold shrubs and grasses A sky of soft gray-green gradient fading into a pink sunset behind a distant mountain range topped with snow, its base remains dry with patches of forest. On the flat & grassy valley floor is a barely noticeable power line, it give a massive sense of scale to the scene A mid day clear sky above a mostly snow covered mountain range. In the foreground is a silhouette of range of pine trees
