A Quotation

“Finish every day and be done with it. For manners and for wise living it is a vice to remember. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. To-morrow is a new day; you shall begin it well and serenely, and with too high a spirit to be cumbered with your old nonsense. This day for all that is good and fair. It is too dear, with its hopes and invitations, to waste a moment on the rotten yesterdays.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Building

• For most of the past year, I’ve been working on a game, and it’s finally ready for people to play! I’ll definitely be posting more about the experience, but in the meantime, check out Railroad Ranger over at itch.io.
• I’ve got a couple other coding experiments in the works, including one in particular I think will likely be ready to launch by the end of the year.

Listening

I’m still finishing up two podcast series that came out in late 2025:

• The “Gear” season of Articles of Interest, focused on the military origins of modern clothing, has been outstanding. I’ve loved every season of this podcast, and this one has been especially interesting. Just great work.
• JennaWorld: Jenna Jameson, Vivid Video, & the Valley, from Molly Lambert, whose previous series HeidiWorld, was also excellent. There was a long layoff between the two series, but the wait has definitely been worth it.

Reading

• The Adventures of Pinocchio, Carlo Collodi, translated by John Hooper and Anna Kraczyna

Watching

I recently watched Being Eddie, and while it’s definitely a good idea to be skeptical of these sorts of fully-authorized celebrity profile documentaries, I think it’s interesting to see how Eddie Murphy, an entertainer who has been extremely famous for 45 years and counting, wants to portray himself.
