Yesterday, Occulus and Anduril co-founder Palmer Luckey, posted a picture of him doing Nyan Neko Sugar Girl cosplay to his Twitter account. It’s a Fanime from 2010. On the heels of a sympathetic long form essay in Tablet Magazine that went viral, Palmer posting friendly cat girl jokes on main was clarion call to the […]

The older you are the more you begin to accept the way things “are” in the world. We’ve come to accept layers of professionalism between us and the real work of the world as we go about pursuing our own comparative advantage. Surely someone is handling the bits we are not as this is an […]
I can’t get into the details but I learned today that there is an internal metric at an institution based around work I was personally responsible for achieving. Literally none of the credit has accrued to me because ultimately the thing didn’t really work but the downstream effects of the social credibility I brought really […]
Day 1320 and Being “You-er”
You may recall the old aphorism about marriage. Men and women have very different goals for the institution and how it will or won’t change them. “Men marry women with the hope they will never change. Women marry men with the hope they will change. Invariably they are both disappointed” I don’t recall having any […]
I am hunkering down for a Friday evening at home. Batten down the hatches, secure the chickens in their coop, turn on the security system and lock the doors kiddos because the circus is here.

Or in my case middle aged small “l” libertarians who aren’t keen on more government involvement in anything. Cyperpunk is became daily life and the crypto-libertarian […]

I’ve been having some unwelcome negative emotions over the past few weeks of political turmoil. It could be a function of long Covid or some variant of season affective disorder. I got introduced to an even worse environmental trigger. Wildfires burning both in state and across the west gave us low cloud cover. You could […]
Day 1303 and Toaster F*ckers
If you are someone with a gentle constitution who finds vulgar language or discussions of sexual appetites upsetting, this post won’t be for you. I doubt I have readers like this as one of my most viral pieces was titled “dickriding” but just in case you’ve been warned. I’ll be discussing the toaster fucking problem […]
It’s a crazy world we are living in A number of my friends and colleagues have descended on Nashville this week for the Bitcoin Conference. I didn’t make the trek as southern heat in mid-July isn’t for me. Despite being remote, it’s been easy keeping up on the event. I connected various friends who all […]
