now

june 2026. toronto is tipping into summer.

working on verlo, and it's going well. we're scaling, and the problems are getting bigger in the good way.

i think i tweaked a tendon climbing. it's been humbling. but i can't wait to heal up and go all in again.

summer is almost here and i'm here for it. turns out i do some of my best work outdoors, so i'm outside as much as i can be.

i'm in a full michael jackson phase. i grew up on him, drifted for a few years, and now i'm back stronger than ever. he's on 24/7. i even rebuilt a playlist around him. if he isn't my top artist this year i'll be shocked.

i've been valuing human made things more and more. not because ai is bad at making stuff, it's genuinely good now. but there's a feeling in something a person made that i don't think gets replaced.

and i've been reading heidegger. heavy, slow, occasionally baffling. but it's the kind of thinking that rearranges how you look at ordinary things, and i can't get enough of it.
