I have a talk looking for a home.

HMU if you have CFPs still open and want to hear a nerd question their entire professional data + software reality.

It's 'bout time 🛼

Thanks #VermontPublic for covering Green Mountain Roller Derby's first home competition since 2019.

I only started boot camp in early 2022. It's been a long road back rebuilding the league. We're so grateful and beyond excited to finally be skating at home.

I wanna hear about the best concerts you’ve been to! Some of mine:

  • Ozomatli at The Catalyst - played until curfew, spilled out onto the street and jammed for another hour until the cops came
  • Flaming Lips at Liberty Hall - second set, played the entirety of Dark Side
  • Dar Williams at Liberty - power went out, she sat on the edge of the stage and played three songs by flashlight
  • Joni Mitchell, Brandi Carlisle, et al at the Gorge - simply magical

Open source is not in a crisis.

Existing power structures, who holds power, who gives power, and whose resources have the ability to influence change....is in fact changing.

It's not a crisis. It's evolutionary, and it could be revolutionary.

What happens next is up to all of us.

In today's living in a forest #parenting lesson, we talked about why it's important to look up, and identifying snags and widow-makers.

That one's a doozy.

Y'all, y'all, y'all 💚💚💚💚💚

Someone from #VermontPublic reached out to talk to our #RollerDerby team about us, the sport, and our upcoming bout.

Now if we can just get a ticket to Neko Case, all of my dreams would be coming true in the same week.

Senator Sanders, you're invited, too, but please bring Neko Case with you. 💚

thanks,

"Coffee before humans" isn't a value statement.

It's a reminder that our short time together is more valuable when my brain is awake enough to meet you in the conversation, and that I regret every time I feel underprepared.

For the longest time I was told to read Scalzi, but I rarely read military-themes anymore, even in far future fiction.

Then I saw a picture of a cat dressed in a suit and I absolutely judged the book by its cover in the best way.

Kiddo #1, talking on the phone about her day: "..... ...... ................... .................... ............, and then, like, they are all "Ooooooooooh, I have a sharpened stick!"

Me, from two rooms away: "Hey! Are you finally reading "Lord of the Flies" in school?"

Kiddo #1: "HOW DID YOU KNOW????????????"

"On top of the sleepless nights, the endless hours to fill, and, yes, all that joy, raising a kid is one long experience of loss. We lose the 1-year-old with his arms outstretched to be picked up, the 4-year-old bravely marching to his first day of preschool, the 6-year-old who just wants to snuggle on the couch and watch Bluey. They’re replaced by new people we can’t wait to meet, but the ones they were, the ones we knew and loved, they’re gone forever."

@adx This knowledge informs EVERYTHING I make decisions about lately, always biasing towards both encouraging and building them up for their eventual departure, and savoring any shared moments.

"Do I need to go to this meeting, or do I need to sit on the couch and answer questions asked while mutually staring ahead at The Good Place?"

"Can you drive my friends and me to-" "YES"
