  • I’ve dealt with brain cancer on and off for most of my life, and for a while things were looking pretty bad. I’m good now, but I think I came to terms with my own mortality pretty early on (around when I was 16). As someone now rapidly approaching 30, if I were to go tomorrow I feel I’d be OK with that, though I would worry about how my fiancée would take it (or not, I’d be dead so I wouldn’t care about much of anything). I’m still looking forward to many more adventures but when my time is up, so be it.





















  • Understandable, moka pot coffee isn’t my favorite, just thought it might be a serviceable budget friendly option. I’ve had decent cups out of mine by preheating the water before putting it in the bottom and putting an aeropress filter on top of the bed of coffee grounds.

    Those piston machines are insane and the grinders are even more expensive. It may just be a thing that’s best kept as a nice treat when you’re in Italy then.
