  "I know things look bad, but, don't despair just yet." "Why not?" "Because... things are probably going to get much worse."

  Despite Half-Life 2 being set in a dystopian future where Earth was conquered by aliens and there are more barricades than a production of Les Miderables, City 17 still has a higher walk score than most US cities.

  I wish all student doctors and residents on their ER rotation tomorrow good fucking luck.

  I'm fond of acrostic names for VFX pipeline tools. Given how much shit we have to deal with due to inter-department conflict, I want to write an communication tool called "FIBER" Frequent Inter-department Bickering Endangers Renders

  The Spiderman pointing meme, but it's ODOT, Washington County, and the City of Beaverton trying to delegate road maintenance to each other.

  I'm going to be livid if the air conditioner I bought on 2024 only lasted two seasons. Can't afford the thousands of dollars for a heat pump that lasts for ten to twenty years? Too bad! Spend a thousand every year or two on a disposable AC! That's capitalism, baby!

  Between me and my ebike I'm moving over 300 pounds of mass when I'm riding. I wonder how much different it would be if I weighed what I did in college and had a lightweight city bike...

  Two years ago, dissatisfied with the low quality of commercially available bike wheel lights, I set out to make my own. Several kilograms of filament and several meters of LED strips later, I had a solution that worked. Bright, eye catching wheel lights that I only had to charge once a week. I shared the DIY plans on Instructibles, but AFAIK, nobody has made their own. So I've set up shop to make them for you. https://rideatnight.com/ Ride brightly, my friends. #bikeTooter

  My parents' solar panels produce a surplus of energy. Extrapolate that to the twenty three other houses on their street, the four other streets in their neighborhood, the rest of the subdivision, city, county, state. Put solar panels on every rooftop of every building in the country, and iron batteries all around to store the surplus. But instead, we keep burning dinosaur juice.

  Every time I head down to Sherwood I notice the increasing amount of slightly denser housing going in. Mostly detached SFH and townhomes. You know what I don't see? Any evidence of increased transit reach, or commercial services. They are widening Roy Rodgers to handle all the extra traffic that this housing will generate. Gotta make room for the suburbanites to drive their oversized not-cars to Safeway to pick up a gallon of milk.

  If I learned anything yesterday it's that a track saw does not make a good miter saw.

  Oh, for there to be a virus to randomize every bit of genAI training data, user tracking data, and every blockchain. May the tech bros gaze upon exabytes of corrupted, unrecoverable data, and weep.

  The universe is mocking me. A rare Westside group ride ... the same day I'm dropping my bike at the shop for a tune up. I suppose I could do the ride first, then drop the bike at the shop... 🤔

  What a terrible time to have a brain that expects things to make sense...
