Losing Weight with AI

I’ve posted off and on over the last year or so about my sporadic efforts to lose weight again. My good habits of yore had really slipped lately, and each vacation I took, I came home with another pound or two as a souvenir. Eating at home was generally not a problem, but eating at […]

A Trip to Eastport

UMF has a Fall Break over Indigenous Peoples Weekend, and we took the opportunity to take the girls out to Eastport for a beach house vacation. We typically try to get to the beach a day or two each year, but we never made it this time, and this seemed like . . . better […]

When Have You “Arrived” as an Author?

I’ve been writing every day now for more than twenty years. And in that span of time, I’ve constantly found myself setting lines in the sand that felt like they would prove that I had finally made it. I’d be a full-fledged author. The first one was easy: I’d need to have a published book. […]

TV Series Review: The Expanse

I started watching The Expanse a few years ago. I’d heard good things about it, and I enjoyed the first season a fair bit. However, midway through the second season, I started to get frustrated. The characters seemed to be making some foolish decisions just for the same of plot development, and it got to […]

A New (to me) Hymn: Jesus is the Way

I haven’t posted all week since my brief post about feeling so down after the attack on the Latter-day Saint church last Sunday. I kept wanting to, but no matter what I thought about posting, it just felt . . . meh. Like, why would I want to write anything? I just felt pretty hopeless. […]

Too Much Hate

I don’t have much to say today in the wake of the shooting at the Latter-day Saint congregation in Michigan. It’s incredibly upsetting to have it at all, but to have it happen to members who share my faith, and to have it potentially have happened because of that shared faith (according to early reports) […]

Dealing with AI Slop

I came across an article this morning that talked about how many people were suddenly having to deal with “AI Slop.” Essentially, this is the result of someone using AI to get a job done, and then not meaningfully interacting with the output (or sometimes, even the input). In other words, someone gets assigned a […]

Staying Current with AI

There was a time not too long ago when, once you learned how to do something, you could feel fairly confident you’d still know how to do it a few months later. I’m not talking about learning how to design a website and then sitting around and not designing anything for a decade or two […]

The Four Robert Redford Movies that Made Him One of My Favorite Actors

I was sad to hear of Robert Redford’s passing yesterday. Growing up, he was one of my favorite actors, mainly because he starred in a few of my favorite movies. They’re films that still hold a place on my best of all time list. I wanted to take a minute to highlight a few in […]

Towards Unity

In the wake of the Charlie Kirk assassination last week, I’ve been watching the dialogue on all sides of the political spectrum. And the more I watch, one thought has risen to the surface for me. No matter what happens in the world these days, more and more people use that event (literally any event) […]
