So, liking Tweetbot. The extra chrome used to bother me but now compared to #newnewtwitter it's more information dense IMO.


"daddy, can we play minecraft?" it has begun #minecraft


RT @mattgemmell: Brilliant! Pirated copies of Serious Sam 3 have an invincible giant scorpion that relentlessly attacks players: http:// ...


Wandered too far into a deep cave, then lost my known exit via digging up into OCEAN. crap #minecraft


Obnoxious

Term.ly defines "obnoxious" as:


OMG minecraft. Decided my motto will be that of the dwarves: "too greedily and too deep".


bad thing about trying out minecraft for the first time. I have FPS hand again (cramped AWDS fingers)


Official coffee times.


Googling "web dev subcontractor agreement" is kinda useless. Do I need to find a web-dev-friendly contract lawyer?


@SeanMcTex @agiletortoise hey I missed the memo! Whats the new gig?


My mother is helping my daughter with her spelling homework over iChat video #thefutureisnow


That time of year I spend practicing my Snoopy-as-a-vulture glower (stringing Christmas lights).


Raising a Leftie

My 8 year-old son is left-handed in a family of right-handers, and I'm looking for tips to help him make the most of it without feeling like the odd-man-out. Neither of his siblings care, so I'm not worried about him taking flak at home, but he's picked up a variety of techniques for doing things and I want to know how to best help him. He writes and eats left-handed, but kicks right-footed. He throws a frisbee ambidextrously (though throws stronger left-handed, but prefers right-handed). He plays violin right-handed. It's very strange.


My wife just told an Inception-themed story while playing Story Cubes.


Swan Swan H

Derek Powazek remembers, and offers a strange, beautiful explanation for, one of my favorite R.E.M. songs, Swan Swan H. (It's listed as 'Swan Swan H' on the album tracklist, but everyone calls it 'Swan Swan Hummingbird' after the first three lyrics.) I too learned to play the song, and while I don't have the same associations Derek does with the tune (it can only be described as haunting), it is one that has always touched me deeply.


current status #dubstepping, watching the kid build LEGO, writing perl, tweeting.


Also, I apparently love #dubstep #wubwubwubwub


So, apparently #dubstep #beatboxing is a thing.


@goldenmeanweb Oh man, that's awesome. http://t.co/k5b2FnzI "I've got a vise and a torque wrench."


Discovering #dubstep. How had I missed this #wubwubwubwubwub
