Hi! I'm a tech guy, skeptic, feminist, gamer and atheist, and love OSS and science of all stripes. I enjoy a good bit of whargarbl now and again, and will occasionally even seek it out. I am also apparently responsible for the death of common sense on the internet. My bad.

I guess if you could ever classify a spider as “cute”, that one might qualify. Ever since I went to grab my goalie equipment bag out of the shed last week and discovered about fifty earwigs nesting under it, I’ve called a truce with any spiders I find in the yard. I will still destroy any Black Widows I find without compunction, however.
