Q&A: Get to Know Your Local Twitch Streamer (yes, me!)
Q: When did you start streaming and why? A: My first stream was on December 11, 2019, the same day I signed up on Twitch. It was a short test stream from my PlayStation 4. The PlayStation 4 always had this “Broadcast” feature. At the time I first got the PlayStation 4, I had other…

Some Personal Thoughts on Human Rights and Space Travel
I’ve been reading astronomy all weekend. I’ve kind of missed it since I first took astronomy in university (and with all the changes in spaceflight going on – space tourism, woohoo! – I think I’d better brush up). Somehow I got an A in astronomy (no, not just staring at stars all year long) and…
