It’s finally time to get things back in action here.

Year Of The Tiger
It’s the Year of the Tiger, and in this entry we take a look at my love of symbolism.
37
With another birthday comes another post where I reflect on another year of life.
Hey There. I’m Fine. January Has Just Been A Crazy Month!
An update on just what the heck has been going on the past two-plus weeks.
Happy New Year. I’m Sick. Go Figure.
It’s only fitting I would kick of 2022 by being sick. Let’s hope it’s nothing too serious…
Solstice
A look at some of my thoughts on the state of my hobbies, projects, and online presence this past year, as well as things going forward into 2022.
This Steve Jobs Quote Perfectly Fits How I Feel About Life
I only just realized that today happens to mark the 10th anniversary of the passing of Steve Jobs. In realizing this I began thinking to how in the past few years I’ve gone from seeing him in a purely negative light to, while not ignoring his human faults, seeing him as a kind of inspiration. […]
I Just Can’t Do The Online Gaming Discussion Scene Anymore
I’ve been thinking quite a bit recently about my time in the online gaming scene — especially the past 2 or 3 years — and I’ve come to realize I simply can’t do it anymore. The scene has become virtually nothing but a might-makes-right popularity contest where passion, knowledge, and logic mean nothing — do […]
Project Phoenix
File this one under “Chris writing about the blog he barely updates” but, fuck it, I wanted to get October off to an optimistic start. As we all know, the past nearly two years hasn’t been all that great — Covid has been a constant pain in our ass and we’ve seen stupidity on top […]
How That Day Felt
Today is September 11th, 2021 — the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. It was an event which still affects me mentally in some ways, even with my passive experiencing of it and 20 years having passed. As I mentioned in the article yesterday it was a world-changing moment for everyone. That particular day, […]
The Last Normal Day Of My Life
For all of us in life, there are defining moments which create a permanent before and after period in our lives where, from that point onward, something is forever changed. For me, one of those days was a Monday many years ago. I was a Junior in High School. Keep in mind that here in […]
I Started A Phone Company. No, Seriously.
All the way back in October of last year I wrote an entry called “I’m a Phreak” where I laid out what my most recent extreme interest has become — the old telephone network of the 20th century, and all that entails — the history, the technology, the stories, the rise and fall of The […]
The Gateway From Hell
Here we have a story as old as time — or at least, one as old as how long I’ve lived in this house. This is the tale of my absolutely rage endeucing internet gateway, a constant pain in my ass since 2013. That’s where the story begins, actually – July 2013 and me moving […]
Oh Wait, I Forgot The Obligatory Rockets!
What is a 4th of July on Xadara without some good old American rocketry? A boring one, that’s what. Today I think I’ll share a video I may have shared before, but if I have oh well – I’m sharing it again. This is a compilation from the late 90’s of launches from Vandenberg Air […]
Happy 4th of July
Yeah, I know, it’s like 10 P.M. and I’m finally posting this. I spent the whole day coding for a new project (more on that when it’s ready to be announced) and as always I let time run away with me. For your holiday joy I present a now somewhat famous scene from King of […]
