How am I doing? Well today I’m slamming assorted rice crackers 🍘

A bag of assorted rice crackers. That’s literally what it’s called.

A screenshot of the Neovim editor. There's some PHP code, and a skull and crossbones in the sign column.

I configured my Neovim LSP error symbol to a skull and cross bones, so now whenever I write bad code I feel like a pirate. 🏴‍☠️

Here’s how my hemmed cut offs looked as pants. Off of @starshaped@labyrinth.social post.

Me, an older white man with a long beard, stands in a thrift shop. My hands are on my hips and I’m smiling. I’m wearing these skin tight white and pastel color splotch pants.

I found these pants for ten bucks thrifting and cut them into shorts. I just finished doing a very sloppy hemming but I’m happy with the result.

Me in white shorts that have pastel color streaks.

Three zines, Bite Size Command Line, How Git Works, and HTTP: Learn Your Browser's Language, all by Julia Evans, are splayed out on a dark wood table.

Just got my zines from Julia Evans. Very excited to dig in.

Curried salmon for dunch.

A bowel of white rice with a half cut of curried salmon on top. There’s some pickled red onions scattered around, along with a ribbed snake of mayo.

I went another two months without writing a media diet! These posts are way too important to ignore for that long, so let’s get into the crap I took in. But before that, look at this 👇 Table of … Read more

I feel like my previous post didn’t properly capture the grandeur of my Lock Screen.

I’m using a new photo for phone wallpaper. I took this photo, and I like the filter Apple suggested a lot. I have no memory of which beach this was, or why I was there.

An iphone lock screen with a purple and organze tinted background wallpaper of a rocky beach.

I bought my first ever pair of chucks. I’m digging them a lot. 👟

A shot of my legs in jeans and blue converse on my feet.

Our apartment is in the sauce. 🌶️

Three bottles of hot sauce. Empress ghost pepper maqaw, and Melinda’s black truffle a d fire roasted garlic and habanero.

Targeting the ven diagram of magic the gathering players and people who want to know about local musicians.

Spotted on a Carrol Gardens lamp post.

A poster on a light post made to look like a fake magic the gathering card. It’s called Jake cascade and features a picture of a young man wearing overalls and a winter hat and holding a banana. The card text reads: “spellcaster. A powerful musician, Jake cascade’s spells blend genres to create a colorful musical cosmos. When this card is played all players receive existential relief. “

Maybe the most beige thing I’ve ever cooked. Stir fry a la Utz.

A bowl of rice with stir fried orange peppers, tofu and mushrooms and crushed potato chips on top.

It’s roof movie season.

A projector screen with the castlevania anime on it. It’s supported by ropes tied to posts in a city roof. Yellow glow from traffic lights illuminates the background.

There’s something about seeing a loose VHS on the ground that makes me want to take a shower.

A down shot of a concrete city sidewalk. A garbage can looks in the frame. There’s trash all around it. A grimy VHS lays there amidst the garbage, back up.

A group of six friends is posing playfully on a crowded beach under a sunny sky. The group includes three men and three women. Each person has a temporary tattoo of Chris' face. One woman on the far left is wearing a floral shirt and shorts, enthusiastically pointing to her left arm. Her left arm has Chris' face near the elblow joint. Next to her is a woman in a black swimsuit and sunhat, posing with her hand on her hip. She has Chris' face on her bicep. In the middle, a man has towel draped over his head. This is Chris. The towel has his face on it. Standing next to him is a woman in a gray bikini with her back to the camera, playfully looking over her shoulder. Chris' face is on her lower back. A man in sunglasses and a baseball cap stands behind them, flexing his arm. On the far right, a shirtless man in beige shorts smiles while holding a drink can. The beach is bustling with people, colorful umbrellas, and towels.

I celebrated my birthday at the beach this year. My friends surprised me with matching temporary tattoos of my face, along with a towel also of my face. Silly, dumb fun. 🎂

A black cat loafing on a chair, eyes half open. The color palette is cool with pops of purple and dark red.

I put my homemade aftershave in little potion bottles so I can feel like a shave wizard.

My roommate Ivy’s band just put out an album, and it sounds really good.

A vinyl record standing against a wall, with a batman and gameboy next to it. The album is called Weird Chills by the band Faith/Void. The cover is a old school horror movie stylized sewer grate, with pink feminine hands with red painted nails coming out of the grate.

A wooden shelf with a whie raccoon penis bone on it. It's curved and has a prong at one end. There's a happy budda and some armadillo statues around.

One of my treasured possessions: a raccoon penis bone given to me while I was in the hospital from Amalia, an art historian I met through my cousin.

Three men, two white one brown, flapping their arms and opening their mouths like birds against a brick wall.

From our Happy Valley improv show. Baby bird improv is the best improv, demonstrably. 🎭🐣

Stopped at Red Rabbit on the way home back. Real good. I’m the one with the crab cakes.

Fast food on a red latticed table. Burgers, fries, birch soda, and a plate of crab cakes.

In the green room before our improv set at Happy Valley improv festival. It is this place.
