Re: I blog about nerd stuff

Cool blog!

Just read your post about short form "content". Really reminded me of Patrick Willem's stance on the word "content".

Re: Favorite Pens

Oh wow, that is one beautiful pen. When I end up getting a cheaper fountain, if I end up really liking them, that looks like a very nice pen to upgrade to.

Re: Alternatives to D&D

Sorry to necro, but if it's specifically goofy and light-hearted that you're after, Paranoia is a very funny time. Not D&D-related at all, but if goofy is your north star, you'll eventually wind up at Paranoia.

Plant Request!

Hey all, I've got a spot in my garden that needs some plants and I'm not sure which ones to plant.

Asking as a person who has a few albums downloaded to Jellyfin, but who wants to get a more comprehensive understanding of the ...

Simply Switching SIM?

I currently have some rando Android smartphone on a Verizon plan. If I want to try out the dumbphone life, the normal way would be to purchase a phone and set it up with a new line, either on my existing plan or on a new plan.

But can't I just buy the phone and plug in my current SIM card? I know ...
