It’s been a while since the last time I went to a gig so I wasn’t very keen on traveling to Dublin but at the same time I didn’t want to miss Days ‘N’ Daze again. Some background information: This gig was scheduled for 8 September last year but it was postponed. We were supposed to go with my fiancé and I was really looking forward to the original date and was very disappointed when it got pushed to this year....
I’m not sure how many people who know me know I love baseball. Probably a few as I don’t hide it or anything, I’m just aware of the lack of interest so I rarely bring it up. Anyway, one of the games I’ve been playing quite a while is Out of the Park Baseball.

I always hated how Twitter is just there, they don’t really give a wank about racists and bigots openly spewing hate on their platform and now that dickhead Elon Musk bought it so for me that was the proverbial final nail. While I don’t intend to delete my account (the only reason is we’ve basically started talking there with the love of my life) I will stop using the platform for good....
This is my new blog. I nuked and reinstalled my dedicated server today so I have absolutely nothing running, except this. Trying to do things right now and use Ansible for most things, we’ll see how long that lasts. I’m also planning to set a new Mastodon instance up, but that’s it so far. Anyhoops, see y’alls.
