Trump has ordered “a total and complete” blockade of all ‘sanctioned’ oil tankers entering and leaving Venezuela ports,
-- which is technically an act of war.
How seriously should we take this?
Trump has certainly threatened war with Venezuela in the past.

Some work waits for you. Not patiently. Not the way a dog waits by the door, loyal and uncomplicated.

Wanted to make a list of my favorite EPs from 2025- narrowed it down to a top 10, from over 200 I'd liked and documented this year. The list contains multiple genres & I've written a brief blurb about each. Most of these I've talked about here this year. Might be something here for everyone!

Today for the first time ever I added fake film grain in post while editing my photos.
I reached the point where noise reduction in low light situations makes my photos look noticeably worse, especially when people are involved. They start looking like wax figures and I hate that.
At the same time, as a digital kid, I wasn't a fan of adding fake grain to my photos. Everyone and their dog knows I don't shoot film. And what's the point of making my photos look worse.
Today something clicked in my brain and I decided I'd rather have some texture and deliberate imperfection in my pictures.
Especially when all this generative AI bullshit these days is about making things look so smooth and perfect it hurts.

Having a roomba (not actually a roomba, it's a neato botvac; you know, the *other* robot vacuum company that went bankrupt) sometimes feels a bit like having a dog.
*weird loud noises*
me: "Ugh, what did you eat?"
*roomba beeps as I pause it*
me: "A zip tie? No! Drop it. DROP IT."
This is how my weekends usually go:
- Get the laundry done
- Get the dishes done
- Get the dogs to the dog wash
- Get the groceries done for the week
- Do something that brings you joy
I'm always surprised when I get to that fifth item successfully.

… I love those lyrics.
I trap you so much!
Yes, I want you to be happy
But don't threaten my happiness
Can't you see I'm walking this threadbare tightrope?
Made out of dental floss stitched
Together with strands of tobacco and dog hair
And it stretches between two precious fantasies, my fantasy of me
And my fantasy of you
