Hello!

I'm a Canadian living in Seattle, WA. I do ops at AWS (sorry). I'm married to the best person I know. We have 5yr old twin boys we're teaching to be empathetic, careful and considered members of society, I hope. It's really hard.

I dig music. I drink coffee. I play games. I have a greyhound, Rufus; he's a lovable idiot.

I post random nonsense about my day, music I'm listening to, and what I'm having for lunch. You gonna finish that?

you know how a coupla years back, just as the Outage Machine was really starting to hum, there was this orthogonal push to stop tweeting about your lunch, because nobody cares about your sandwich? that was the thing I loved best about Twitter: people sharing their most mundane, their most regular experiences. It's like a warm blanket, mercifully free of judgement and outrage. I'm no Buddhist, but I really dig the concept of the sacredness of the every day.

I had grilled cheese with bacon, btw.

pondering giving a tech talk about moving to full cd and trying to find the right title. also I've been reading Lemony Snicket to the boys and "A Series Of Unfortunate Events" seems about right.

Something has to be done has to be done about this charismatic megafauna!

Rufus has deployed his most powerful attacks to prevent me going to work today.

You think you're hard? I had Baby Beluga on vinyl, son. #Raffi4Life

Like Kurosawa I make mad films

current samurai status:

oh, er, I guess I didn't toot the first bit. I've been thinking about a scenario for#DnD for months, and thought I'd run it this week and then realized I didn't actually know what the encounter would be, just the hook. Anyway I just figured out how we'll play it.

Oh! I just figured it out!

good morning my little unanticipated vocal lines

Whenever prepping for #DnD I always do my HP rolls using the dicebot in the public discord, right where the players can see. Nothing says Your DM loves you like !roll 10d12 + 40

you should all just follow @akajtg now and get it over with, because he's just gonna slide into your mentions and enrich your life anyway. he's like that. ♥️
