Got to march to the State Capitol with tens of thousands of other great people.

The No Kings March in Saint Paul was a bit overwhelming, but also great to see so many people show up, especially after the tragedy in Minnesota earlier that morning. I'm very glad that I was able to attend and that it was entirely peaceful.

East Bethel City Council Member Suzanne Erkel makes incredibly offensive post about the recent tragedy in Minnesota.

My favorite video that I had shared on Twitter. Carrie Evans is amazing and deserves so much respect. Sad to hear she stepped down from government in 2024, but I hope she's doing amazing things now. #Minot #lgbtq #NorthDakota #CarrieEvans

Our dog Oliver turned 15 recently, and his legs "don't work like they used to before", so I built him a little ramp. It folds up, but I need to do a little more work to make it secure, and add more grippy tape because he still slides. Fun project. Dog tax included. Oliver & Izzy. #dogs #woodworking

It was so good to see everybody show up for the #presidentsday #protest yesterday at the #saintpaul Capitol. Despite the frigid temperatures there were almost 1000 people that showed up. And they were much more organized than the previous 2/5 protest. I love to see how this is growing. #Minnesota

Just want to give a shout-out to one of my favorite new apps. Kinnu is like Duolingo but for middle school social studies. Tons of interesting history, facts, and random things I've forgotten. And as far as I can tell it's totally free. Great app to replace doom scrolling. #kinnu

Another TikTok reupload this was when I was first learning Godot (and I'm still learning) way back, September 23rd, 2023. I had switched from Unity to Godot because of all the drama Unity was going through at the time. What a sweet summer child I was back then. I still love Godot though. #gamedev

Since I'm leaving TikTok too, I'm just going to repost all my old videos here. This was my first one back on August 12th, 2023. A clicker/monster collecting game that I was working on in unity I think. I'd like to rebuild this game in Godot but it's currently on hold. #gamedev

Starting out #ScreenshotSaturday on BlueSky. Still learning my way around Godot, but I've started working on a Suika-like project just to get the basics down. So far I just have the physics of the different shapes in place, next step is to implement the merging action. #gamedev #godot #suika

Oh cool, the guy that stole money from his child's memorial wants to change the constitution.
