I build technology products, volunteer as a National Forest ranger, and am a typical Bend, Oregon resident: an outdoor sports generalist who has two dogs.

Yep leaning into the one dog photo a day. I call this sleeping position Barley Bagel even though the wrinkles lean more towards croissant.

Oh hey Twitter is still here. Maybe I’ll post one dog photo a day until we fade into oblivion. If this account’s only legacy after 20k+ tweets from the early days is just dog photos I won’t even be mad.

Like the musicians on the titanic, if twitter is going down tonight I will serenade you with photos of my dogs.

Also my birthday. I'm going to celebrate with pie.

Someone just asked me if I had fallen asleep in a meeting because I wasn’t on mute and these guys are snoring loud enough that the mic picked it up from across the room.

My husband: I'm going to pack light for this trip (a long weekend on the coast, staying in hotels and not camping).
Also my husband: Anyways I've packed my backup screwdriver kit under the seat and where should I put my thermarest sit pad and is this Yeti cooler too big?

All-in with @SpaceXStarlink now. Called to cancel our old CenturyLink DSL service. The very few times I've had to rely on it for backup for Starlink it has also been down so.... 🤷🏼♀️
I wrote an amazing user story map in my dream last night. Also, my top desk drawer was a freezer full of ice cream sandwiches. Disappointed to wake up and realize that 1) I have nothing to show from a long night of "work", and 2) no ice cream sandwiches.

This is surprisingly accurate. Followed chart. Ended up at physics. It's just missing one more step. Do I like pretty pictures? Yes -> Astrophysics.
I just got a meeting decline comment from an external person (so I couldn’t see calendar availability): “I can’t make that time. That’s when I eat lunch.” I certainly didn’t need a reason but I appreciate and admire the clear boundary setting.

Visiting family for the first time since pre-COVID and doing the important work of spending all afternoon trying to remember the name of that one restaurant that closed in 1998.

18%Ban ALL use, incl. pro's
69%Ban personal sale and use
2%Ban personal use only
11%No long term ban
62 votes • Final resultsI have an afternoon that is blissfully empty of meetings so I fired up a 90's acoustic spotify playlist while I go heads down on some research work. I was unprepared for the whiplash - it's the soundtrack of my study sessions as an undergrad at @UMich in the late 90s.
