a fun part of my social media job is looking for songs from specific years and today i got 1972, which meant I got to watch David Bowie do Ziggy Stardust what a time

My friend Sean O'Brien is a surfer and artist with a very big brain. I wrote about his new app and the inspiration for the digital art works that inspired it. ✨

the best thing about this time of year is seeing the county fair rides on the ventura surf cams love to watch the kids on the big splash

wetsuit repair friday which is exactly how as exciting as it sounds fuckyeah gona go sniff some glue

the trend of brands doing "drops" with small amounts of product is saving me so much money lol i am never going to show up at a specific time to buy stuff

having some fun dreaming up fictional brand names for the novel like my chance to imagine opening a coffee shop

it's amazing the number of elite athletes i talk to, who did a variety of sports as kids and were pretty much good at all of them -- and then they found their thing.

my fox news neighbor regularly has exterminator-type dudes show up and spray outside his apartment and that is a thing i really do not love please do not spray shit where i live man

Water friends! My friend Sean is an artist and surfer and he made a super fun app that's a visual representation of the NOAA buoys off the California coast. The app's based on a series of digital art pieces he made that explore similar ideas. Check it here, apps.apple.com/us/app/ocean...

fausto, better at riding bikes than doing hurricane stuff

so typical writer, i guess!

i'm broke but i'm stoked -- me telling a friend about the story i'm writing rn

anyway i just made an iced espresso and my technique is not great but it got the job done

send me those sweet, sweet mid-latitude lows bring 'em in close where we get hug them so tight

somehow i blocked the hot af summer part of the program out of my memory of past el niño cycles. all i'm sayin' is that i better get some damn good waves this winter in return

the sunscreen i like is only available online and i did not plan correctly for the whole situation with the sun

i muted "Madison" and you might wish to do so, too -- even if you have auto-play on video stopped. lots of people posting video + detailed descriptions of police violence that you may not need in your timeline

it is rare to have ocean water that warm this far north even in summer. ocean swims all day basically

the ocean temp is 70f here so i feel like the whole el niño thing is real yes

currently on a baby name site looking for a character name can't wait for instagram to get its hands on this data gona be great

the next hurricane in line in the east pacific is named fausto

if you’re lazy like me, you can duct tape an air filter to the back of a box fan and it works super well

Here’s instructions on building your own Corsi-Rosenthal box.

this is hella cool.
