There are three Indiegogo campaigns for bluetooth tags going on right now. How do I choose between them? Bringrr – little tags that connect to your phone; you can get as many as you want; mobile app focuses on helping you find your lost keys by showing arrows on your phone’s screen if you’re close… Continue reading Bluetooth tags

lots of new things
Exciting times! Double Union is thriving! Teacups, tables, books organized by category, drawers for power tools, beginnings of a soldering station, a/v setup, warm, welcoming, inclusive community–it’s like some kind of dream come true. We’ve grown so fast that we’re pausing applications for a little while to get everyone ramped up. If you want to… Continue reading lots of new things
Journey
I just played Journey for the first time. Played it all the way through. I can’t tell you why I just cried for twenty minutes after the credits and watching the sunrise in the new journey screen, because I don’t know why, myself.

I think that most of these songs actually aren’t… Continue reading songs that dented my brain this year
oh, the places i’ve been
I went to Mexico. I started a new job. I have still been to every Blizzcon there has ever been–seven since 2005. The statues felt like old friends. Hearthstone, WCS finals, and blink 182. I went to Big Sur.
Riot’s music video for Jinx
I’m totally fascinated by Riot’s strategies for hyping new content.

She has wikipedia pages in other languages, but not on the english wikipedia. Her link… Continue reading Riot’s music video for Jinx
i live in a hologram with you
I am obsessed with this album. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pure_Heroine There are so many gems in the lyrics. They all break my heart. I love the way “I’m kinda tired of being told to throw my hands up in the air, so there” is old and young and something about her voice, her voice, her voice. I can’t… Continue reading i live in a hologram with you
silent frisco at ocean beach 9/29/13
Have you been to a silent disco? I highly, highly recommend it. It’s surreal when you take off your headphones and see everyone jamming out to the sound of silence, or to waves crashing. Here’s a neat writeup of the concept (and its history, and a bit about how he got there) by one of… Continue reading silent frisco at ocean beach 9/29/13
