You have reached my personal website. This is where I put my thoughts and feelings: about life, art, &c. (I also have a professional site, if that's what you're looking for.) This is my personal sandbox: a garden, a toolshed, a home-cooked meal. Enjoy your stay!

Love it or hate it, everyone is talking about AI all the time. It’s so boring. It’s worse than talking about global warming or US politics or anything else, because AI, as a topic, has all the problems of those things—i.e., there are...
Over the years since I’ve had this domain, I’ve written a lot of stuff. I’ve also rewritten my website multiple times, and every time I’ve had to port my old content over to the new site. I think this is going to be the last time I do...
I just saw an article that called itself “yet another goddamn article about generative AI”—it’s good, by the way, you should read it—so I want to keep this somewhat brief. I’ve been wanting to write something about em dashes and AI for a...

OK, I admit it, the main reason I’m writing this is so that my buddy dozens’s blog post is wrong. His is not the last blog post about markdown—mine is!! Bwahahaha! I do actually have something to say about Markdown though. I actually...
No, your blog should not have comments. Or at least, you should not feel as though it has to have comments. The comment section is famously the vilest part of any webpage (except YouTube, for some reason); while I do not aim to tell you...
These are the books I read in the month of December, 2025. They’re not in order of me having read them, but rather in order of me remembering that I read them. R.U.R. (graphic novel adaptation) by Kateřina Čupová, trans. by Julie...
I’ve been enjoying STAR TREK: VOYAGER quite a bit over the past week or so I’ve been watching it, but I think this episode—the tenth of season 1—is my current favorite. In it, the crew find themselves welcomed by the Sikarians, a...
when i saw the topic for this blog carnival i knew i'd have to participate. i have an mfa in poetry so i'm contractually required to weigh in on matters of poetics. however, because you can find plenty of my poetry about, i'm not going...
Alongside silly licenses, I really enjoy seeing and thinking of funny versioning schemes as well. One such scheme is Binary Versioning (binver), which is just a fun time.I suppose I should mention that most of these schemes are in...
trev over on #systemcrafters was asking about blogs switching from straight.el back to package.el, the built-in package manager for Emacs. I have done this, so here is a blog about switching back.why straight.el?First, let’s have some...
