    i have an electric car and electric bicycle (american; suburb - forced car use). having an electric car is so much better than my old regular one not only because of emissions, but i have solar panels at home. free “gas” and never having to go to a gas station is super underrated.

    i bike ~90% of the time, anyways, but its nice to never have to do any of that stuff. the car is 2.5 years old and it has ~7.5k miles on it… most of which was my wife driving my car when hers broke, heh.



  • through k-12 i wanted to be a pilot because my grandfather flew a plane as a hobby.

    in college, i bounced between pilot, music composition, auto mechanics, musical theatre.

    dropped out of college and did hairnet & nametag jobs for a while and asked my uncle to get me a gig as an associate PA for movies (but he wouldnt even return my call).

    a friend of mine worked for a video game company and said he’d hire me to be on the phones because i just needed work, so i decided to do that for a year or two…

    i worked at that company for 14 years moving from customer service to QA to software engineering. now working as a software engineer for a boring non-game company.

    its not necessarily what i want to do, but it pays the bills and i dont mind being bored with it for another 23ish years until i retire.
