I was going to make a joke about the aliens returning and presenting us with a bunch of birds. But that got me thinking, if an intelligence goes around collecting species, how woul…

You may just be joking, but such a thing would be a crime against humanity.

I remember being blown away seeing one of those tape-deck to aux cable players for the first time. Plugging my late 2000’s era iPod into my early 90’s car was magical.

In my part of the United States, the state government authorized the construction of toll roads with an agreement that those roads would eventually be handed over to the state gove…

Some of the proceeds spent on having a good time will go towards reducing misery and suffering elsewhere. I see no malice in the decision to make peace with the fact that no mere m…

I would love to see an app/overlay that displays what each option is during the call. Some system where you don’t have to listen to the whole list of “press x for y”. I have no ide…

I once complimented a blogger for composing a particularly eloquent sentence. My compliment was concise and sincere. All I received in reply was “Thanks!”. I was thrilled. I earned…

You may be intrigued by a channel between Lānaʻi and Kahoʻolawe named “Kealaikahiki”, which translates to “The road to Tahiti”. Following the direction of the channel will lead to …
