Yep, stella with no R. Because I live on the edge of spelling.

In more culinary news, this is how you eat cake on Fridays after work.

Just peel back the plastic wrap and get a spoon.

Peeps, this tomato plant that grew on its own is trying to take over the world. But the tomatoes have been green since August. What gives?

Ines Rau is the first transgender Playmate

The late Hugh Hefner broke ground with Playboy, and now the first issue of the magazine since his recent death is doing the same.

So there.

Guys: in this land of Lincoln, in this valley of Fox, in this city of Tri, the sun has came up once again. Who knew?

Now go get yourself a Friday morning donut… 🍩

There’s Fresh Donuts in Geneva, Bosa Donuts in St. Charles. I’m sure Batavia’s got someplace, too, but I’ve never ventured that far south before noon.

Me: Are you still spending the night with Lexi tonight?

Maggie: Yep.

Me: Cool. Is your mom going to take you there after school?

Maggie: Yep.

Me: Okay great, I’ll come over around 7 o’clock.

Maggie: DAD. 😑

inessential: Accessibility

You may not need it now, in other words, but you will, if you’re lucky. And future-you will be proud of past-you if you cared about it before it was personal.

While eating my workday lunch I was skimming this programming article on accessibility. And while I didn’t have any strong feelings about much of it, the line quoted above struck a chord. It can be taken as-is, without any context, and hold up in any spiritual court.

Not being an Xcode developer, I read inessential more for how I can include Brent’s personal wisdom in all matters. Like regardless of what I’m doing in the here and now, work or otherwise, I hope future-me will be proud.

And of course his data models and thought processes have also trickled into my development projects, too.
