  • Solid start for Diablo IV

    Man, I think I’m going to enjoy this one even more than Diablo III. The graphics look a lot better, the storytelling has been great so far, and I’m enjoying that they put in the effort to have so much voiced dialogue. I’ve tried all of the character types except the sorcerer, and so far…

  • Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir, Day and Night

    Central Park, New York City. July 2019.

  • Looking at the books on shelves in comics and shows

    This panel is from James Tynion’s comic “Nice House on the Lake”, which is great by the way, but I love looking for scenes like this in shows and movies, where book spines are visible and you can get further reading ideas. I look at it like a reveal by the author or director of…

  • Went out riding yesterday for the first time in a long time. Felt good.

    At Pier 64 – Hudson River Park In 2019, I was in pretty good shape but I kind of let that all go because of the pandemic. I’d like to get back to where I was, but my issue now is time. I have a long commute, so I have to figure out where to…

  • The corner of Jerome Ave and 176th Street in the Bronx

    January 7th, 2021 January in New York City is always rough looking and the Bronx being what it is, it looks especially hellish at that time of year. This was shortly after riot season ended. There was a water main break and a lot of businesses along this stretch were flooded. There’s been a lot…

  • Heavy smoke in New York City from Canada’s wildfires

    I took this photo outside my office in south Brooklyn today around 2 PM. What’s supposed to be the heaviest of the smoke from Canada’s wildfires reached New York City today. In retrospect, I wonder why we were even at work. The air quality index hit the low 400s today on a scale that maxes…

  • An Average NYC Commute

    Today on the way home, a car sort of blew up next to us on the #FDR while we were under the #UN building. When we got to the #Bronx, a man was dancing in traffic with his pants around his knees and his junk hanging out. Really, WTF is going on here? #OnlyInNYC (This…

  • My gay cupcake…

    …to celebrate the beginning of Gay Pride Month.

  • The Witch Trials of J.K. Rowling Podcast

    Podcast LINK. This was a really interesting look at JK Rowling’s life. I wasn’t aware of what kind of background she came from, other than that she wasn’t well off financially before publishing the Potter series. When I first started listening to this, I was under the impression that it was just going to address…

  • Pasir Ris, Singapore. May, 2009.

    Pasir Ris was fun, but Tampines was better.
