I’m a high school drop out. But in a sort of non-traditional sense. My first encounter with disability happened in the wake of living abroad as a sophomore. I found myself simply not attending my junior and senior years of high school. It was a complex situation. My mother battled against teachers and administrators using […]
I was supposed to drive my husband to an appointment today. I’d put it on my calendar and was prepared to make sure it happened because that’s what wives do right? It was an easy and obvious yes. I didn’t think anything of it. Around noon I noticed I was becoming intensely sound sensitive. I […]
Social media has given us so many ways to become fans. We have ever more content thanks the streaming wars. Give content a chance to live everywhere online and it will develop a fanbase beyond its intended audience. The internet gives small shows outsized impact. I’m a fan of a Canadian comedy called a Letterkenny. […]
I really missed the cold and snow while I was in Prague. You might be confused. Isn’t Prague known for its cold winters? Well maybe not this winter. As it turns out, the unseasonably warm winter in Eastern Europe is good for the energy crisis on the continent, but bad for someone who prefers the […]

So what does a pair of homesteaders do? Buy our own weather station! It’s an Ecowitt 2553. In the US, Ecowitt weather stations […]
I like to move quickly. With my enthusiasm for generating momentum, I can easily get myself myself into trouble.

The phrase “slow is smooth, smooth is fast” originates from the SEAL teams but the purpose behind […]
I began my long many legged journey back to Montana at 5:30am GMT+1. Most of my west coast friends haven’t even gone to sleep for their Friday nights as I set off before dawn on Saturday. Time zones are fun. Journeys home make for a great narrative arc as we follow our hero from foreign […]
If you have ever stayed in an airport hotel or a particularly standardized corporate hotel, you’ve encountered the grand global homogeneity of acceptable hospitality. This aesthetic owes a debt to Silicon Valley and the way we’ve sanded off peculiar edges and smoothed over individual characters to make the real world’s brand book as consistent as […]
Living in Montana means I have no shortage of excellent beef. I’ve yet to have a bad steak or even a mediocre burger when I’ve shopped locally. Grass fed free range Montana beef is a luxury that is worth it. I’ve got higher standards for meat because of it. So it was a very pleasant […]
I’ve been rewatching the excellent Amazon adaption of William Gibson’s The Peripheral. I’ve said if before, no single artist has had a bigger impact on my aesthetics than Gibson. As the father of cyberpunk, his impact looms large over the computing industry. Molly Millions is a cyborg in William Gibson’s Sprawl Trilogy which includes the […]
