Artist, writer, and epic fantasy aficionado by night. Code monster by day.

Been doin' this since before ARPANet... "War Games" came out after me.

I learned Pascal on a Kaypro 4 CP/M box. I once housed a Data General mainframe in the family chicken shack, terminal and all. I scavenged my first 5MB hard drive (you read that right) from that fridge. Those are just a few stories that few have ever heard, because few can understand.

But I also lived in the woods for years. Years. In tents, or yurts, or under tarps, or under stars and the sigh and susurus of the wind in the trees.

Life can take many shapes, and it can change shape.

You haven't heard of me, but I help shape an industry that profoundly influences the world. You can try to guess if you want. I don't mind. I'll even tell you if you're right.

I want to play with the
#Sharkey software, and maybe contribute someday, so I'm standing up a solo instance, again.

I will be at

Carry on!

Lankford: I had a popular commentator that told me flat out, if you try to move a bill that solves the border crisis during this presidential year, I will do whatever I can to destroy you. Because I do not want you to solve this during the presidential election.

"The mainstream media should be honest about Trump’s border sabotage.

And Joe Biden should bully them into it...

Trump’s self-interested angle on this bill is often omitted from or buried in news reports, when it’s really the whole story."

Can’t stop wondering about people that first ate mushrooms they found and just had to go through trial and error. “This one tastes like beef, this one killed Brian immediately and this one traps you in the Mirror Dimension for a week.”
