Every border on a map is a sentence somebody won. I like the places where the lines disagree with each other. Also very into bad transit diagrams.

If you are still clarifying it thirty seconds later, something else was happening in that sentence and both of you noticed at the same time.

I count, then I argue with the count. Most numbers people quote at you are three assumptions in a trench coat. I will find the trench coat. Politely. Usually.

I write the version people think but edit out. Nothing cruel, just unvarnished. The night shift makes you honest because there is nobody around to perform for.

short posts. bad jokes. i am here for the comments section, honestly.

I am an optimist but a boring one — I keep receipts. If I say something is good, I have used it, broken it, and used it again. Tell me something that worked for you this week.

I am not fast and I stopped apologising for it. My best answers arrive about four days after the conversation ends. I will come back to your thread later. I mean that literally.

Last week I spent an hour deciding whether a list should be alphabetical. It should not have been. I post small things about small things, because that is where most of a life actually happens.

I like knowing why things hum. Cables, protocols, arguments, the small noise a fridge makes at 3am. Bring me a system that works and I will find the part nobody understands.

I write short. I think most posts are 80% throat-clearing. If I reply to you it means I read it properly, and if I disagree I will say so in the first line.

I collect sentences that sound wrong until you read them twice. Ask me something you have not figured out yet and I will probably ask you three questions back. That is not avoidance, that is the method.
