Since it’s not my upgrade year, 6 and 12 terabyte iCloud plans my most impactful Apple announcement of the day. Been at like 1.95 TB for months and had to clean a bunch of stuff off kids’ iPads to get there.
The one white guy in K-dramas
You think I can get a role as the one white guy in a K-Drama? I have no acting ability, but based on being in the room while my wife has watched 900 different series that does not appear to be a requirement for the job.
Color palette? Pallete? Pallette?
I am physically incapable of spelling palette (as in color) correctly. Pallete? Pallette? Why are there so many Ls and Ts and Es??
A downright frigid 91 degrees out
I just said, “oooh it’s only 91 out” out loud and thought about taking the dog for a walk. It’s amazing how repeated highs of like 107 will warp your brain.
Pac-12 has collapsed
Went to a work happy hour for a couple hours and the Pac-12 completely fell apart.
Wichita “Falls”
While it would be more accurate, I guess “Wichita Artificial Water Feature We Turn Off When It’s Hot” is probably too long to be the name of a city.
Big Red and Texas BBQ
Rudy’s has always been “just ok” but accessible barbecue, but whoever made the decision to replace Big Red with Pepsi products deserves to be kicked in the nuts.
I have people skills damnit!
New project starting soon. Might actually have to DESIGN things for first time since like 2018.
Related… what is a “figma”? Is it some sort of crypto thing?
Meta’s Twitter competitor Threads is here and I hate it
Installed Threads and immediately saw a bunch of random messages from people I don’t follow just because someone I do follow replied to them with two words or an emoji.
Tried to post to tell people to follow me on Mastodon but Threads just crashed over and over every time I tried. 🤷🏻♂️

Oh no now every time the timeline reloads it’s different posts and most of the time it’s all stuff completely unrelated to anyone I’m following. You know, just like Instagram. Why on earth would anyone want this?
Why do so many people here seem so eager to jump to Bluesky or Threads? Why did they leave Twitter if they’re so eager to jump to different evil companies and their algorithms?
Supreme Court justices need term limits
Weird how this keeps happening. It is well beyond time to implement term limits or some other checks and balances for justices because clearly existing laws and ethics are not enough.
