    We’ve got a war on our hands, people. The springtime gophers that have taken up residence in our back yard have been going off this year. When I woke up this morning, I found at least four new mounds of varying sizes scattered about. Last year, a heavy blanket of Uncle Ian’s all over our…

    We’ve got a big one today. The next post might suffer for it, but why should I sit on all of these tasty morsels and end up get scooped by the likes of Kottke and Waxy? 😄 Epidemic Lofi Let’s kick the day off on a chill note. This Soundcloud playlist from Epidemic Sound has…

Fat Gold Small batch olive oil from Kathryn Tomajan and author Robin Sloan. It’s usually only available as a yearly subscription — but they’ve just started selling individual tins, and I’m pretty…

    Back at it again at Krispy Kreme… Hydra A browser based, live coding, video synthesis system, hosted on Glitch. There’s a ton of resources in the inline documentation if you feel like playing around with it. Or, if live coding isn’t your thing, just light a joint, put something chill on the stereo, and zone…

    Welcome to the maiden flight of the passing fancy! Inspired by my old friend Cory — and our current global pandemic — I’ve decided to blow the proverbial cobwebs out of the corners and try something new. Well, sort of new. When I was running this site on Blogger back in the early 2000’s, I…
