Product, digital government, (currently supporting the post-secondary sector). Sighthounds, LFC #YNWA. Somewhere between Fergus, Kitchener-Waterloo and Toronto. Also a suffering Cowboys fan. “Mundus sine Caesaribus.”

LFC isn’t the Washington Post, no one will be grateful for Bezos’s deep pockets. He will be relentlessly mocked if he steps foot in Anfield. Surely he knows he’s a cartoon villain. Surely??

Congrats Spain, a deserved win and such an ignominious way for Messi to bow out. They didn’t get here on their own merit, rules were bent for them all the way along. People will remember. He is a gifted player, they didn’t need to cheat for him.

The US started the 2nd half stronger than the first, and this game certainly isn’t over, but Belgium are a step up in quality here, their touches, their movement. Once you start playing teams ranked in the top 10, you’re really in a different class. #FIFA #Belgium #USA

Dear America, you have it in you to be your best. We in other countries know this. So believe in yourselves as we believe in you. Happy 4th of July 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Open source projects should leave X. It isn't easy in many cases, but I hope maintainers will push proposals to their teams when the time is right. @e18e.dev and @npmx.dev are only here, and both projects are thriving.

More nerds in space, please. Like take over our media channels 24/7, all of them, and keep telling us how grateful you are about your loved ones and mentors, and the people around you. And just keep being the nicest people in public life right now. #artemisii #nasa
