The Web Developer Who Neglected His Own Website for a Decade
There’s a darkly hilarious truth about working in web development — the guy who builds and maintains everyone else’s websites never has time to fix his own. After neglecting my company site since 2014 and accidentally crashing it while poking around the backend, I finally did what any responsible developer would do… I launched the new one that had been sitting 90% finished on my server.
Everyone Should Own a Toothless
Watching How to Train Your Dragon completely backwards led to an unexpected realization — I don’t want a war dragon like the ones from Game of Thrones. I want Toothless. The emotionally supportive, flight-capable, plasma-breathing house cat we all deserve.
Uninstall McAfee, Then We’ll Talk
What started as a quiet breakfast at my girlfriend’s house turned into an unexpected tech-support intervention when a coffee-soaked HP laptop entered the room. I expected catastrophic hardware failure — what I found instead was a machine brought to its knees by preloaded antivirus and OEM software bloat. A funny, ridiculous, and painfully relatable look at modern laptops, trialware, and why removing McAfee sometimes fixes more than espresso ever breaks.
Changing the Oil
Living with cerebral palsy means living with nonstop muscle spasms — and the only thing keeping mine under control is a surgically implanted baclofen pump. Every three months it has to be refilled or things get medically dangerous fast. What should be routine maintenance turned into a road trip, a rental billing mess, hospital bureaucracy, and a transportation system that wasn’t even sure a wheelchair user qualified for a wheelchair van. If I don’t laugh about it… I’m going to punch somebody.
Hollar Into The Void
The Holy Knives
A gritty blend of blues, post-punk, and gothic soul — The Holy Knives deliver two releases that hit hard, haunt deep, and somehow make housecleaning an emotional experience. This is alt-blues for the modern age, and it’s absolutely worth the spin.
Basement Alchemy
Two albums, ten years apart — yet completely intertwined. Heads and Tails from Basement Alchemy are a masterclass in cinematic indie rock evolution, and I didn’t even know what I was ordering when I bought them.

Signal Drift: Current Broadcast
Signal Drift is an original fiction series unfolding one chapter at a time—right here on the blog. Set in a near-future collapse where communication is survival, the story follows a former radio engineer navigating broken networks, old alliances, and strange new signals. Each post is a chapter, and the series is updated regularly. Want to dig deeper into the cast? Meet the characters right here.
Signal Drift: Chapter 15
The town square outside the Viroqua Public Library buzzes with life for the first time since the collapse. As neighbors gather for a community meeting, the stakes become clear: rebuild, reconnect, or fade away. With Joy Luebke leading the charge and Cronauer revealing the return of a long-silent radio signal, the path forward starts to take shape — cautiously, but with purpose.
Signal Drift: Chapter 14
A stranger rolls up with diesel smoke and warnings, carrying news that might just change everything: a meeting, a familiar name, and whispers of movement on the Mississippi. For Cronauer and the crew, it’s the first step toward whatever comes next — and maybe the last chance to build something before it’s all too far gone.
Signal Drift: Chapter 13
Cronauer didn’t remember falling asleep — again. First the dream, now this. Outside, the signal was warming up, and inside the shack, so was the fight.
Signal Drift: Chapter 12
In the stillness of night, Cronauer is visited by a vivid dream — a rush of memory wrapped in warmth, music, and a quiet goodbye. As the past fades, he’s left with a reminder, a call sign, and a feeling he can’t shake.
