One of the most interesting things about Bethesda Game Studios is how rarely they truly throw technology away.

There is absolutely no way Avenged Sevenfold wrote “Save Me” about Princess Luna.

Everfree Northwest is coming up fast, and after spending some time going through this year’s schedule, I finally have a rough plan for the weekend.

The My Little Pony panel at San Diego Comic-Con has come and gone, and we finally have a clearer idea of what comes next.

There is a version of success that seems to require constant expansion.

I’m very excited to say that I’ll be attending Everfree Northwest this year, August 21-23.

Names are strange things.

I went to see the new Masters of the Universe yesterday and wow, for once Jared Leto didn’t ruin something he was in.

Over the past week, I moved my WordPress site from Hostinger’s shared hosting to Dokploy running on DigitalOcean.

There are few fictional settings that lend themselves to logocosmology as naturally as The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim and the broader The Elder Scrolls universe.

There is a point where a personal website stops feeling like a container and starts feeling like a place.

There is a quiet assumption that runs beneath most discussions of fiction, theology, and imagination.

This is a post I’ve been sitting with for a while.

There’s a word that’s been floating around the internet lately, one that I think perfectly describes what’s gone wrong with the WordPress ecosystem: slop.

I’ll be upfront: I didn’t care about drag racing before last week.

I want to be upfront about something: Skyrim is not a perfect game.

Last night I watched Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die.

Left 4 Dead 2 is one of those games that never really leaves your rotation.

Everyone has their favorites in a fandom, and My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic is no exception.

I need to talk about something that’s been bothering me for a while.

I’ve already written about my predictions for Generation 6 in an earlier post.

I’m thirty years old now.

Everyone has those characters, or real people, who just stick with you.

I have a collection in Raindrop.io labeled “inspiration.”

I’m putting “Generation 6” in quotes for a reason, and I’ll get to that.

I first discovered web development in 2008, when a friend in middle school showed me the website he “built” using FreeWebs.

I’m going to be honest.

I recently made one of the biggest behind-the-scenes improvements to my website since it went live.

I’m excited to share that I’ve been working on a new longfic set in what I’m officially calling the Meld:Verse: the alternate timeline universe where Earth and Equus merged.

There’s a reason most developers hate Gutenberg, and it’s the same reason I love it.

I use the Jetpack plugin for WordPress, though not for the reason most people probably expect.

I was recently lurking in a rather large furry Discord server.

I’ve seen the argument countless times over the years: Twilight Sparkle is black-coded.

Let me start with a confession: I’m not a furry.

I have been dreaming of van life for many years.

I’m thirty now.

For years, I was the loudest Apple skeptic in the room.

I can see the shape of the next five years, even if I can’t see all the details yet.

I basically spend all day, almost every day, entirely at home.

I’m excited to share that I’ve been working on something new.

As 2025 winds down, I’m looking ahead at what I want to accomplish in 2026.

A recent Discord conversation about polyamory took an interesting turn when it circled back to the brony fandom.

I recently came across a Reddit post that pointed out something fascinating about Shining Armor’s introduction in the Season 2 finale of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

There’s a peculiar irony in being skilled at something you don’t want to define you.

I am writing this post to talk about a project that has become the center of my creative life, a story titled “Through The Lens Of…”

I am writing this blog post where I am going to be potentially polarizing and perhaps even controversial.

There’s a question that’s been gnawing at me for years, and it’s only become more pointed as I watch the rise of adult Bluey fandom: Why is it perfectly acceptable (even celebrated) to be an adult fan of Bluey, while being a Brony remains something people…

I want The Elder Scrolls VI to be good.

Friendship is Magic was wildly successful.

I want to try and go over some of the plans I have for this blog moving forward.
