More changes of direction and protest photography

Traverse D. posted an article on - Oct 22, 2011, 4:39 pm
First: I recently started a job as CTO of a health informatics startup and ended my relationship (nine years… it’s still sinking in). It’s a different direction, working for someone else instead of for myself, and it has changed things for me a lot. For starters, at the end of the day I have...

My knee

Traverse D. posted an article on - Jan 1, 2011, 1:23 pm
Last time I updated this i had an MRI scheduled and I was going to find out if I needed surgery on my knee. Turns out I do, I tore my ACL, my MCL and my meniscus. I am still waiting for a chance to meet with my surgeon (and the waiting is a bit frustrating) but it also left me realizing a few things...

In a darkish mood.

Traverse D. posted an article on - Nov 16, 2010, 12:26 am
My aunt died the other day. It put me in a pretty dark mood when I found out this morning, and as always, this is my therapy (how the fuck else do you explain some of the shit I post on here). Having said that, I’m not going to bore you with crap about my personal feelings. Instead I’m going to...

My latest project

Traverse D. posted an article on - Sep 6, 2010, 11:25 am
This is kind of a peak oil/global warming/economic collapse sort of thing. I am a firm believer in the value of knowledge, and in the culture of ideas that makes the use of that knowledge possible. As a result, I have created an organization known as the Way of the Preserver, designed both to keep k...

A caution case

Traverse D. posted an article on - Jul 27, 2010, 1:33 am
I am behind on child support right now. I haven’t really had an income per se for about the last year as I have been trying to get a small business off the ground. Now, I understand the child support regulation fairly well (I was part of the test group when they released the guide book to the curr...

Are we really that stupid.

Traverse D. posted an article on - Jun 28, 2010, 11:30 pm
So, big branding has co-opted the revolution and claimed it for their own. I just saw another miracle whip ad. Hipsters doing hipster things with faux hand made titles and a voice over that sounds like an indie film. Car companies tried this in the nineties, but we still had at least a little bit of...

Still doing pushups (and situps)

Traverse D. posted an article on - Jun 28, 2010, 11:21 pm
This is a quickie. I am still doing the 100 pushups challenge (and the 200 situps challenge). On week 5 now. I have a stress test tonight, and did one last night (situps tonight, pushups yesterday). Looking at doing c25k next. Filed under: Uncategorized

100 Pushups

Traverse D. posted an article on - Jun 16, 2010, 12:34 am
I am doing the program at hundredpushups.com right now. Basically over six weeks you go from however many pushups you can do in a set, to being able to do 100. I am also doing twohundredsitups.com at the same time. This may be foolish, but I’m into week three and so far so good. Of course, I have ...

Not a joiner

Traverse D. posted an article on - Jun 8, 2010, 12:35 am
Maybe it’s my non-mainstream childhood, maybe it’s because I tend towards systematic thinking, maybe it’s just that I’m a contrarian asshole, but I don’t tend to join things. I was always a bit of an outcast and had friends who were outside of the mainstream. I pretty much avoided cliques ...

Not the end of days.

Traverse D. posted an article on - Mar 7, 2010, 12:32 am
I’m a peak oil guy, and a bit of a doomer. My fiance gets annoyed because when she asks me about stock market investment (for a long term perspective) I always say that it probably won’t matter much. I tell her that I am not confident that the money she has in RRSP’s will still be ...

One of the ways false rape accusations hurt

Traverse D. posted an article on - Mar 5, 2010, 1:16 am
It was summer. I don’t really remember much else in the way of detail, just that it was warm as we wandered along the waterfront. The bunch of us, all male, all young, all pretty fucking stupid. Looking for that guy, the one who raped a friend of ours. The night is pretty much flashes for me n...
