What's Geekin Me Now: The Chippewa Valley Geek's Decade in Review - The 2010s - Ten Terrifying Years

Being deemed an "essential" worker in the midst of a global crisis really gives one cause to stop and think about all the things that are truly important and essential to us in this life.

So -- in an effort to avoid that shit as hard as possible -- I sat down instead and finally finished brainstorming my "best of" list for all the fun and frivolous shit we've enjoyed over the last ten years.

Enjoy the diversion and maybe treat yourself to something awesome!
