Just your average lover of classic rock, questionable TV and other random things. I’ll probably talk mostly books and music, lighthearted fare.

Currently reading a really cool book about what it would take for humans, on any kind of large scale, to build settlements on the moon or Mars. Everything from resources to making babies to the in-depth legal challenges. It’s funny and cool and well researched.

Just had my first experience with gummies the other day. I learned that there's a big difference between one and two, even when they're spaced many hours apart. That second one knocked me out like a light.

I think if you lived even as recently as 100 years ago, you'd probably be fascinated by how many of my most important devices are basically differently sized boxes that talk at me.

Just heard a story about a woman who got fired from a restaurant, and then showed up the next day with her friend, with baseball bats, and they blasted the shit out of everything in the place. It was the funniest damn thing I heard all week.

Just ate some very underwhelming croissants. I don't know if they were supposed to be flavored or have anything in them, but there wasn't. It was a bland, glorified piece of bread.

Wow. Just got an email from coinbase saying here is the link you requested to reset your password. Dam. Haven't used that thing in I couldn't tell you how many years so whoever did that will get squat if they get into my account. Mainly it just reminded me oh hey this is a thing that exists.

Have a funny, arcane short story.

I’ve been trying to play The Dark Citadel, trying being the operative word. My friend has been telling me about it forever and it sounds cool. I’ve never played DND, and I feel like had I known people who did it’s something I could’ve gotten into, and this seems pretty similar. Thing is it’s designed to be played on an Alexa. In theory you can do it without Amazon. In practice… kinda? But not really. Oh well, I tried. #Gaming
