    A Long and Strange Road 🐦

    I stopped posting to Twitter entirely a while ago and had been cross posting from my blog only for a few years before that. Mostly I was keeping my account for a mix of sentimental reasons and it being an authentication method to some hockey analytics stuff.

    At some point I set a reminder for today to go and grab a screenshot of the 15 year anniversary of joining Twitter. It seemed like forever for something on the internet and somehow important. The last week I kept thinking “will Twitter make it to Tuesday!?!

    I enabled activitypub support on my site years ago but beyond micro.blog interactions it was more novel than useful.

    Even if it’s short lived it has been fun to see people following me from several mastodon instances in the last week.

    Tire swing on fire.

    Two cans of “King of Donair” Beer

    There’s genuinely no way this can be anything other than terrible, but it is my duty as a haligonian.

    With the announcement that Sony is buying Bungie I can only hope that Sony will resurrect the Myth franchise that has been gone too long.

    This Christmas Eve is a bit different. We welcomed Guinevere to the world at 11pm last night. No tree or lights in IWK for us but I am happily trading it for these snuggles.

    Baby Gwen snuggled into my chest for our afternoon nap.

  • Notification from Twitter that today is my 14th anniversary on the platform

    In many ways social media still feels very new and I remember interacting with Twitter via SMS on my flip phone. Then notifications like this shock me back into reality.

    That moment when you realize that the developers on the NHL app never expected a team to have a points percentage of less than 10% and sanitized the leading 0

    I’m sure the Yotes would appreciate a .620 points percentage 🤣

    To celebrate Hugo turning 7 we took them both to Pet Valu where they got lots of love and attention from the staff. We came home with birthday dessert!

    Hugo and Luna have embraced the second intermission as an opportunity to snuggle each other instead of me.

    Hugo has big dreams of what a lazy Saturday should be like and he has had quite enough of the sun.

    We launched a fun feature in partnership with @Fastmail today!

    Also I will take any excuse to buy a new vanity domain 🤣

    Watching the last race before the summer break from the hammock

    Luna appreciates this strategy because I play fetch with her while watching the race.

    Sometimes the pups leave no space for a human to sit but look like this so you cannot consider disturbing them.
