Political Disillusionment
[ALERT:warning] Political Rant [/ALERT] Okay, this is one of the few politically related posts I make each year because politics are so divisive. So here’s your warning: if you’d rather not read polit

Generate a digital painting to honor Florida Statehood Day. The artwork should be bursting with vibrant colors and reflect the richness of Florida's culture, history, and natural beauty. The scene can include landmarks such as the Everglades, oranges, iconic flamingos, or beautiful beaches. Please ensure the image is in a square format, making it suitable for social media use. The artwork should not contain any text or words.
Today’s the perfect reminder that home is where the heart is — and my heart’s in Florida. #FloridaStatehoodDay

Square format digital painting that uses vibrant colors to honor Read Across America Day. The painting should depict a diversity of children from different descents including Caucasian, Hispanic, Black, Middle-Eastern, and South Asian all engrossed in their books. Perhaps some are sitting under a tree while others are on a park bench. Some are lost in a world of fantasy with dragons and fairies, others are exploring the cosmos or diving into historical events. Remember, this artwork is to promote the joy of reading, so make it tempting for the viewers to dive into a book themselves. No text or words are needed in this image.
Let’s celebrate the joy of reading by passing a story along today. It’s how the love grows!

😊Had a super productive weekend working on the Plex server and my personal apps with Claude and OpenAI 💻. #selfhosting
Price hike alert! My Hetzner server jumped from $17.99 to $24.99 due to rising RAM and SSD costs 💸. A 39% increase on a running server stings 😬. Supply shortages hit hard. Expect blog and website hosting prices to rise next 👀. #selfhosting
I’ve deleted my Discord server, account, and apps. Now hunting for a simple voice chat replacement 🎧. Considering Teamspeak for gaming 🎮 or maybe a self-hosted option. Didn’t use all Discord’s features and didn’t like its direction. Definitely time for a change!

Long day! Up at 4 AM ⏰, work by 6 💼, then a dermatologist visit for my yearly skin check 🩺. All good except a minor issue that needs a prescription 💊. Super productive but totally wiped out 😴. Early bedtime for me tonight! 🌙✨

A birthday cake topped with five lit candles and colorful round candies is centered on a table. A sparkler is lit to the right of the cake. Surrounding the cake are three small animal figurines: a white bunny holding a pink heart on the left, an orange kitten sitting in front, and a gray squirrel holding an acorn on the right. Bunting flags in various colors hang above the cake. The text Happy Birthday Momma is written across the cake in blue and white script.

Spooky Full Moon January 2, 2026
I just had to snap a photo when I saw this scene. A full moon peeking out from behind those clouds. It was such a dramatic, moody sight with the silhouettes of trees just barely visible at the bottom.

Sadly, tech journalism legend and pioneer Stewart Cheifet has died. (I knew him from appearing on his show, Computer Chronicles, and also from the how-to VHS tapes we made together.) He introduced millions to PCs, making complex topics accessible to all.

Three children and a dog are playing musical instruments in a living room decorated for New Years. One child is playing a double bass, another is playing a guitar, and the third is playing a small red piano. The dog, sitting on a crate, is playing a trumpet. Red and green balloons and a Happy New Year banner hang on the wall behind them. There is a table with cups and a pitcher, a television on a stand, and framed pictures in the background.
Today is for reflecting on the past and dreaming big for tomorrow! 💭

My 2025 in Review
I thought I would give a roundup from my point of view for 2025 and share some thoughts on 2026. 2025 brought so many new things for me. I left InMotion Hosting and WordPress after 9 years with them.

I finally bit the bullet and bought a 22TB hard drive for Plex since my current 14TB drive is already half full 💾, and I’m not even 40% done with my DVD collection 🎥. At the same time, I grabbed a 64GB DDR5 kit ⚡, which just two months ago would have cost me half as much 💸. #selfhosting #PCTech
Had my heart cath today and it went well, no issues 💖. I'm already home and resting. If I choose the alcohol ablation route, it seems like it could be a solid option. I’ll see the HCOM specialist next Friday and should have all the info I need to make a decision then 📅🩺. #HCOM #Cardiology

Christmas Dinner 2025 was a hit! 🎄 I made the prime rib roast, sliced and ready to eat 🍖, plus some ratatouille 🥘. Dad smoked a ham 🍖🔥, and my sister handled the mashed potatoes 🥔. We all enjoyed a fantastic meal 😋. This year, Mom decided to take it easy and sit back 🛋️.
A joyful Christmas as we honor the newborn King! 👑
