Me, Stacey, and Miriam kicking it talkabout about CSS Scope & Mixins: Daniel and I chattin’ about playing the long game
Blog
Is short for "Weblog" which short for "Web Log".
Just in case I haven’t made my feelings clear lately on the current United States of America administration, I shall blog. It’s the little things that make me think Donald Trump is a vindictive prick who, among his catalog of things he hates, is Black people. For instance, he’s chosen to change what days are […]
Worry Bird
I think the Worry Bird is a cute idea. You use it to, ya know, worry into, by rubbing your thumb into the satisfying little divot to do so. Of course, us web workers tend to turn our worry into superfluous personal website redesigns. [feels urge growing]
The Breakaway Moment
I know I’ve mentioned a ton of times: while I enjoy playing videos games sometimes, a little, I enjoy watching other people play them more. Even as a little kid. Like an awesome play date would be going over to a friends to watch them play. Perfect world, the friend would only play when I […]
Normally I like to work or read on planes, but on a return home flight yesterday I was exhausted to the point that movies sounded best. Four (!) movies on Netflix:
Jeremy: The common belief is that nobody uses RSS feeds these days. And while it’s true that I wish more people used feed readers—the perfect antidote to being fed from an algorithm—the truth is that millions of people use RSS feeds every time they listen to a podcast.

Quite a lovely essay from Henry: When those promises of exorbitant wealth and a life of decadence through per-click monetization ultimately dry up (or come with a steep moral or creative cost), creators and learners must look for new solutions for how educational content is shared on the Internet. The most self-evident, convivial answer is an old […]
Default Apps Early 2026

JA Westenberg: When you write a blog post, you’re creating a standalone document with a permanent URL. It exists at a specific address on the web, and that address doesn’t change based on who’s looking at it, when they’re looking at it, or what algorithm has decided they should see next. The post is there, […]
Three good thoughts from Shane Parrish: Short-term results come from intensity. Long-term results come from consistency. ** Ninety percent of success can be boiled down to consistently doing the obvious thing for an uncommonly long period of time without convincing yourself that you’re smarter than you are. *** Working smart isn’t the opposite of working […]
Does the leadership at my company promote a xenophobic agenda and use the wealth I help them acquire to donate directly to bigoted causes and politicians I find despicable? Yeah, sure. Did I celebrate my last birthday at Drag Brunch? Also yes. I even tipped with five-dollar bills. I contain multitudes, and would appreciate it […]
EMTBs in Bend
The decision is in from the Forest Service: Of the over 500 miles of singletrack maintained by COTA, about 320 miles of trails are in the Deschutes National Forest (DNF). As of December 2025, it is now allowed to use Class 1 pedal-assist e-bikes on 160 miles of those trails. Feels like this is on […]
