this is a great endorsement... I'll check it out.

I dig it man.

yah - I've got a buddy who started a label around cassette releases... and I just nod and smile.

I mean... I'm all about nostalgia... but this has me scratching my head and feeling "boomer-y"

I love this.... my wife just looked up from what she was doing and said "that's awful steve"

Life is weird... we live in our own little overlapping circles... family, friends, work, hobbies, religion, clubs.... and normally, for me, those circles ebb and flow as far as time/energy commitments go. a given week might be a busy church week, but work is slow. Sometimes two areas might feel busy...

this week ALL OF THE CIRCLES ARE DEMANDING ALL OF THE TIME.

but it's ok... lots of good things happening... just lots right now.

    the payoff in terms of how many people I think I can help keeps me excited to do the work every day.

This is the best thing I've read in a while.

it's amazing how much photoshop and CGI people are willing to use to fake out the populace and make them think the world is round...

I basically can't stop listening to this track.

    the corporate wardrobe equivalent of a decent potato salad.

I just spit out my drink.

It's been a long time friends.

FAMILY

My son is getting married in December.

FRIENDS

I got to see mk, ecib, dccrux and mike a few weeks ago and it was glorious.

WORK

Work at the main job is great except for crappy macro-economic factors putting downward pressure on sales, making investors twitchy, and making executives panic... We'll see if I have a job in the next couple months.

I am a tiny bit involved with ethosmobile.org and that is going well also. Lots to do, but feels very bootstrappy and exciting.

ART

My Own Private Idaho has been on my list to watch for YEARS and I finally got around to it. I will admit, I didn't love it... but I certainly didn't hate it... but the fact that I'm still thinking about it days later says something about its weight and effect. Above all else, it's amazing to me that a film that queer forward with such big names at the time was even made. I mean - it was a year before Murphy Brown enraged the GOP. Anyway... I'm still processing, and I think that's a great thing. Any time a film makes me think, that's a good thing. And more than that - When the credits rolled, I felt inspired like I needed to pick the camera back up - and that's a good thing.

I disagree.

hope you're ok!

Please do

    I've heard every possible criticism of Starfield and I'm still not bothered by any of the complaints.

screw them.. Not that I'm in many gaming circles, but I've only heard really positive things from friends. I'm glad you're digging it.

Would love to see a Burning Man retrospective! I hope the other resident burners will pop in!

    I will be able to do obnoxious things like configure it as a 5-axis drag knife, which is a device that no one in the world has ever made.

It's precisely this kind of shit that keeps me coming back for more updates. I don't even know what a 5-axis drag knife is... but hanging around you Ima bout to learn...

steve  ·  253 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: 536th Weekly "Share Some Music You've Been Into Lately"

hahahah..... I knew you were going to post this

I keep having to stop reading this and come back to it because it reads like every conspiracy theory coming true. All of the "evil rich men conspiring to rule the world" is just here in front of us in plain black and white... and probably nothing will change.

frustration runs high

I am once again made giddy by the warning I am greeted with when going to your post:

don't forget the posting of the 10 Commandments everywhere we can!

    seeing Kevin Drew and Feist sing Almost Crimes in 2010

I can't even... I might die.

that might explain why AirBnB prices have been through the roof. We needed a place to stay in SLC at the beginning of the month - AirBnBs were consistently more expensive than a nice hotel room.
