Amanda Palmer concert, 12 September 2012.
More pictures that slipped through, these from the Amanda Palmer concert on 12 September 2012 at the Black Cat in DC. Due to a sinus infection I stayed for only a small part of the concert and wound up going home early because I felt so lousy so there are only photographs of the opening act.
Anyway, here they are.Read more...

Dead Can Dance concert, 27 August 2012.
Somehow, this directory of pictures slipped through. I took a few pictures at the Dead Can Dance concert in Maryland back in the summer of 2012. Here they are.
(TODO: Yes, I know the link to the gallery is broken; I need to reinstall the gallery HTML in that directory.)

Photographs from the Monterey Bay Aquarium, December 2014.
I know I haven't posted much (at all, really) for most of a month. I'd love to say that I've been out having wacky adventures and gallivanting about Time and Space, but I haven't. Work has been, well, work, and eating me alive to boot. This is the first evening in quite a while (because I'm writing this as a timed post) I haven't gone straight to bed after getting home. So, no interesting news articles, no attempts at humor, no witty insights, However, last December I took the opportunity to pay the Monterey Bay Aquarium a visit. I don't …

Boots on the ground at the protests in Oakland, CA.
Disclaimer: I will attempt to be as unemotional and dispassionate as I can. I will undoubtedly fail for many reasons but I think I need to make the attempt anyway. I will make strive to comment only on what I witnessed personally, and keep what I (over-)heard to a minimum. I admit that I am an outsider and will do my best to not seem as if I am not. Nevertheless, compassion and conscience require me to speak out.
Disclaimer the second: I've probably forgotten details even though I have several pages of notes and will have to edit …

Visiting the Computer History Museum.
A couple of months ago, Amberite and I visited the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, California with his father. I'll admit, I wasn't sure what to expect on the way over there. I've been to the Smithsonian quite a few times but the Computer History Museum is just that: Dedicated to the entire history of computing and nothing but. There are exhibits of the history of robotics, video games, military equipment, and of course one of practically every personal computer ever made, from the Amstrad CPC (which never really had a large community in the States, though it was …

Oaklandstuck: Trolls In Black.
I happened to be in the Bay Area with Amberite for the Fourth of July this year, and as we are wont to do we got it into our heads to do a little road testing of some costumes we've been talking about for a while, namely the trolls Sollux Captor and Terezi Pyrope from the webcomic Homestuck playing Men In Black.
If you're not interested in our costuming notes feel free to check out the photographs we took of ourselves or not as you like.
We assembled our costumes out of random stuff I had around the house (one …
