At our Bible study last Monday, someone in the group challenged my whole way of thinking with one sentence: “I’m not sure I believe in sin.”

At dinner last night, I got into a conversation with the kids about pi, phi, and sacred geometry. Which is not where every family dinner goes, but ours wandered there, and I was happy to follow it.

About six months ago I wrote about dropping in hell0github’s statusline and calling it done. That stuck for a while. Then I kept wanting to change small things — the model abbreviation, which sections showed up, what the weekly bar actually counted — and curl-ing a fresh script into ~/.claude/ every time I tweaked something got old fast.

The Quantum Weave site has had a magic-system page and a stack of short stories around it for months. What it didn't have was people. Now there are eight. read on

The Cancer Research Institute published Jenney’s patient story on their site. It’s strange seeing our worst year turned into someone else’s summary.

I’ve been building two internal tools at Lullabot lately. OpptyNet finds government RFPs for us. Upstraker tracks upstream patches across our open source contributions. Both needed real UI design, not just “make it work” design. And I found myself doing that design work almost entirely through conversation.

I published a new short story – Tale of a Teenage Robot.

I’ve been reading the Book of Tobit lately. It’s one of the deuterocanonical books – part of the Catholic and Orthodox biblical canon but filed under “Apocrypha” by Protestants. A novella, really. A blind father, a demon-plagued bride, a faithful dog, and an angel walking in disguise for weeks without anyone noticing.

I’ve been spending a lot of time lately thinking about how AI coding tools handle memory and context. Not the LLM’s context window itself, but the layer on top — the systems we build to help the AI remember what it’s working on, what it’s already solved, and what matters about this particular project.

Told from the perspective of the Forgetting Lichen itself—an ancient bioweapon designed before the Collapse to decommission quantum storage systems. It spreads across stone like frost, glowing silver-white, waiting for the resonance of a Weaver's mind. read on

Yesterday’s sermon at St. John’s was about being “Safe But Uncomfortable,” a theme the church has been exploring during Epiphany. Eric talked about walking in darkness versus sitting in it, about political instability, protesters being killed in Minnesota, a bishop warning clergy to prepare for martyrdom. He mentioned having his will in order, his life insurance sorted. (Recording here.)

I recently listened to a conversation between Ryan and Ian MacGregor on the Fierce Men podcast that changed how I think about family. Ian is a 20-year Army infantry officer and father of eight. His family has been Christian for generations, going back to Scotland. But what he shared isn’t just for people with that kind of heritage—it’s for anyone willing to think differently about what a household can be.

Unit 7-Theta-9 has maintained the abandoned facility for 847 years since the Collapse. When a biological signature enters its sector, ancient protocols activate. But something in the endless loop begins to question. read on

Senior Scholar Kael Theron discovers an impossible spiral in the Weave—a pattern that has rotated undetected for eight hundred years, since before the Collapse. When he investigates, something ancient answers. read on

Subject 23 should be dead. Instead, she exists as a living shadow—a two-dimensional predator that hungers for light and quantum threads, trapped between fading memories of humanity and an insatiable need to consume. read on

Master Forge Torin Ashwright demonstrates a Zeno temperature lock while forging Moonwhisper alloy, teaching his apprentice that stopping time requires patience, precision, and knowing when perfection isn't necessary. read on

An 800-year-old Thinking Oak shares wisdom through Floramancy, remembering when trees walked and warning of patterns that spiral toward a second fall. read on

A Luminal Moth carries fragments of pre-collapse data in its wings, drawn to Weavers by instincts older than memory, bearing messages it cannot read. read on

The meadow exists. Does not exist. Both. A deer trapped in a Corrupted Weave Zone experiences reality in quantum superposition. read on

Claude Code stores your sessions in temporary files. When they terminate, that context is gone forever.

Alright folks, here’s the deal. I’ve been living in Claude Code for a while now (seriously, it’s become my go-to AI coding companion), but something was missing. You know that feeling when you’re deep in a coding session and you start wondering “wait, how much context do I have left?” or “how much is this costing me right now?”

Friends, it’s here. After years of journaling, months of writing, and countless late nights of editing, “Learning Your Children’s Names Again” is officially available on Amazon in both ebook and paperback formats!

Five years. I can hardly believe I’m writing these words. Five years since that terrifying February when our world turned upside down. Five years since brain surgery, since watching Jenney relearn our children’s names, since those endless nights in the ICU. And we just received the news we’ve been praying for – Jenney is officially cancer free, no more scans needed, just annual visits. Praise God!
