Pray for A.

Betrayed by Aussie Bites. My first glutening in possibly years and FUCK THIS HURTS. WAS I REALLY THINKING I COULD BITE THE BULLET ON PIZZA HUT OF ALL THINGS??

The 4th fucking grade, y’all.

Rich from Great Pottery Throwdown is some kind of anarchist. I can just see it all over him. Teach these fools how to cut a cop with terracotta.

Week 1 casts are off and A’s feet look so much better. It’s hard not to hope that she won’t have to do all of the additional 7 weeks and surgery if she’s responding so well to the treatment.

Learning and development is a dead scene. It’s cool that I got to do a job I was great at, but it’s been past time to pick a new path to support my growing family. Do I pivot to the mechanical engineering I’ve been dabbling in at work for a decade? Or, explore this new interest in civil engineering?

I personally know 3 BOA VPs. There are like 5,000 of them. The other 4,949 will not mourn them. What they will shed tears for is the loss of the perceived security that title seemed to afford. Their actions, and that of their C-suite, have consequences.

My favorite heavy metal record for every year of my life because A needs about 45 minutes being cuddled before going back to bed.

Sadly, I think Mastodon was my Metallica and that’s part of why my life is so fucked up.

Great Hardlore talk with Mastodon’s Bill Kelliher. Yap was he was his technical metal contributions were killed in committee by Brent Hinds’ tantrums. Kelliher says the opposite: he always wanted meat and potatoes groove. That he rallied for that direction. Funny. It’s almost like they’re a band.

Guy who's just a garden-variety misogynist voice: actually I'm a good leftist, you guys are the fascists for disagreeing with me

The quotable Tarn Adams: "It just reminds me of like a fucking Dead Kennedys song or something."

Dwarf Fortress' creator says the industry's in shambles over AI and layoff-happy CEOs: 'Everyone I know, their bosses are slowly getting psychosis'

I go down stairs with A to help move her from the impossible football hold to the reasonable rock climb hold. I wait for Joe’s muted chirp to greet us. I pass to the cage and remember he’s not there. He’ll never be there again. I hold my child close.
