Currently at Reddit, I spent 10 years as a community organizer on the WordPress open source project. I'm also an avid reader, wine enthusiast, and parent of two.

Wild geese
This flock of geese hangs out in the local elementary school baseball/soccer field, most mornings. I wonder if any of the kids in the classrooms that overlook this field stare out the window at them. 
Somewhat related, yesterday on our walk to school (well our walk-partway-to-school) I saw this poetry post with my favorite Mary Oliver poem in it.
“You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves.”
If I ever write a poem as good as this, all the striving and sorrow in my life will have been an excellent investment.
