Road a bike up a bit from the beach to Diamond Head Trail. A long way up, but worth it. Killer views of a large crater and the southern beaches of Oahu.

Back home after a weekend run up to NYC. I’m always sad when I take Amtrak along the Northeast Corridor. The whole experience is a reminder of how awful transit is in the US. As poorly done just about every part of CAHSR seemed to be, its recent collapse into a railway to nowhere is so disheartening.

Write blogs, not text as images on someone else’s platform.

I loved the alleyways of Taiwan. Like grass pushing through the cracks of sidewalks, activated alleyways were this organic, human-scaled resistance to frigid modernity.

Baltimore is also a city of alleys, but most are narrow forgotten footpaths of refuse. Our alleyways are hidden folds for fringe activity. Their alleyways are revelatory and exposing.

I’ve always like Conduit as a street name.

Salads, noodles, trees, Elsa, street market food… Seems like a pretty on brand Top 9.

2005 was a very weird time in my computing life.

How do you not love a local comic book store/bar that has this in the window display?

You’re my best friend.

Afternoon stroll through the Warehouse District.

Gracie chewing herself.

A little Sunday #treatyoself

Apparently when Comcast sees a closet like this, it is the equivalent of saying “shibboleet”. Got his direct number and his supervisors.

Solid view of Nashville from this hotel.

My god a good salad makes me happy.

Traitor. Sleeps with grandma now because she doesn’t love us anymore. Sneaks in early in the morning and isn’t even sorry about it

Good mornings!

Mom, are you ever going to put away the pull-out bed?
