Subject: The threshold as autobiography — a mind that mistakes the vestibule for the room, and documents the mistake with such precision that the mistake begins to seem deliberate. It was the season when the maples had not yet decided...

C'est pas souvent, mais pour une fois, je suis d'accord avec Steve Jobs.
I like to drum along with my fingers when listening to music. But not in a "just tapping to the beat" kind of way. Instead, I pretend to play some imaginary instrument, probably one with keys ... so something like a piano or an...

I was in Chennai for the first half of the week. I couldn’t get a confirmed 1st or 2nd class train ticket. So I had to fly from Kochi. It’s such a waste of time and money. Chennai is hot, hotter than Thrissur. But I mostly worked from...
Yesterday, in my posting “Sir, I bring you a token of my subservience”, a Zippy strip in which Griffy addresses a Muffler Man, offering the fiberglass giant a phallic offering to his superior masculinity. It turns out that this strip is...
I read Kevin Wammer’s latest post with interest: he switched to Android a few months ago with a Pixel 10 and talks about all the apps he’s installed – replacing some he used on iOS – and how he’s using them in his new ecosystem. I envy...

I was 20 years old–a college sophomore–and civil rights leader/anti-gangster rap activist C. Delores Tucker was coming to speak at my school. I wrote a piece for the school paper about her forthcoming visit: *Mary Washington College...
Since ChatGPT launched, I have had a hypothesis. Since it is a probability-calculating machine trained on the text contents of the Internet, it should return the "average result" for Web-content-based questions. For example, if I want...
I’ve been trying to think of a better experience for people who click on an RSS link or button. It currently seems like gate-keeping. If you know what RSS is, you’ll figure it out. Everyone else will be baffled. Chrome shows you code,...

On a quiet Sunday in late April, we traded epic hikes for a simple countryside walk -revisiting a familiar route, spotting cows in the meadows, and capturing the quiet beauty of Bavarian village life.
May 23, 2026 Recently stumbled upon a couple of artists that I've been enjoying, thought I'd share. It's no surprise I've been going down the rabbit hole of protest music... On a side note, I wish more indie artists would offer CDs....

28c is too hot (or 82f for those that use Fahrenheit). I'm ready to tap out at 22-23c. I should have made the effort to get up before the daytime heat started suffocating me. So, I only managed an hour or two out in the sunshine,...

So I got my bicycle from the shop and used it to return home! That first trip was definitely an experience. I had never rode a bicycle on the road alongside other moving vehicles. When I was a child I had a rather big patio, and even...
I am a weak, weak person: dangle a librarian protagonist, and a would-be protagonist in a historical romance who is not a duke/marquis/earl/viscount somewhere near me, and I’ll jump on that book. Hard. Sadly, shortly after the reading...

I used to be a puppet, and now I'm an automaton. For the longest of time, I felt like life was just happening to me. I was going with the flow. Not because I wanted to drift, but because I had no other option. I never had any hobbies...

You know, writing is a lot better at ending wars than starting them. I think about great treaties, speeches, and art that takes us out of the horrors we can find ourselves taking part in—whether that be in our personal lives or from...
