Spooky Full Moon January 2, 2026
I just had to snap a photo when I saw this scene. A full moon peeking out from behind those clouds. It was such a dramatic, moody sight with the silhouettes of trees just barely visible at the bottom.

My 2025 in Review
I thought I would give a roundup from my point of view for 2025 and share some thoughts on 2026. 2025 brought so many new things for me. I left InMotion Hosting and WordPress after 9 years with them.

I finally bit the bullet and bought a 22TB hard drive for Plex since my current 14TB drive is already half full 💾, and I’m not even 40% done with my DVD collection 🎥. At the same time, I grabbed a 64GB DDR5 kit ⚡, which just two months ago would have cost me half as much 💸. #selfhosting #PCTech

Christmas Dinner 2025 was a hit! 🎄 I made the prime rib roast, sliced and ready to eat 🍖, plus some ratatouille 🥘. Dad smoked a ham 🍖🔥, and my sister handled the mashed potatoes 🥔. We all enjoyed a fantastic meal 😋. This year, Mom decided to take it easy and sit back 🛋️.

I just read that consumers have boosted the economy. Honestly, that's no surprise to me. As a consumer, I see how tariffs are basically killing us with extra taxes 💸, and with AI driving up component prices 🤖 and causing shortages 🚫, I've sped up my buying 🛒. If tariffs keep climbing, prices keep rising, and PC parts keep vanishing, 2026 is going to look pretty bleak for us consumers 😟.

I’ve been really impressed with ChatGPT 5.2 🤖. It's way better, and I’m surprised how quickly OpenAI made the improvements. That said, I still don’t like how familiar the responses feel 🤔. I just want a computer to give me the facts, whether good or bad, and not act like a friend. #AI #ChatGPT

Just found DVDs from my collection on the Warner Brothers Disc Rot list 🎥. Reported one, but no response 🤔. They need a website for this, not just email, and a way to return for replacements 🔄. It’s ridiculous! Where’s the class action? Tired of getting ripped off by corporations 💔🤮.
