Playing

Balatro is so simple yet so hard to put down. It looked weird to me at first. I’m not a poker player. But if you look up a couple videos you will get hooked. The perfect brainteaser.

It’s even got me prototyping my own game. Hopefully I’ll have something to share on that soon.

Listening

Kokoroko, who just announced an upcoming tour. Go see them if you can!

Coding

I remain excited about jump-start — my way of saving and sharing my favorite snippets of code.

Watching

I can’t take my eyes of the Olympics sport climbing. The way they can read boulder problems is inspiring. I don’t imagine I’ll be making the team.

Reading

Upgrade by Blake Crouch has been a fun suspenseful read — er listen. Perfect for summer walks with the baby.
