With the ubiquity and ease of ride sharing services these days, I do not think it is physically possible for anyone to care so much about a person they’d drive 90 minutes at 4:30 in the morning for them.
(I discovered this fact after briefly misunderstanding my wife and thinking she had just asked me to do so. Love you dear!!)
I just had to buy reading glasses at Target in order to be able to read my phone in case anyone was wondering how old I am over here. 👴🏼
(Apparently in order to make my new contacts prescription strong enough to see far, it is now making my near vision worse.)
My handwriting has atrophied even faster in last 3 years than it already was before WFH.
I mean come on. WTF could this possibly say? Lemon? 🍋
“You shut me down… No I shut myself down! ”
I’ve never had a Mac that caused me any troubles, this client laptop is so loaded with unnecessary corporate garbage that it’s constantly freaking out, shutting down, beach balling. After two years I finally get to send it back in a month. 🎉
(I actually like the project/client, but this laptop has been such a beating for so, so long.)
Is this a thing people in New York actually eat? Did Grimaldi’s send their April Fools’ email way late?
Trolling my daughters with Midjourney prompts as they argue over who gets to help with the next creation: “dad with two annoying daughters, who are crying because they just got in trouble, pixar style”
Bottom right one was our favorite, not sure why the other ones ended up with clown makeup. Ha.

Pretty sure I am indeed human, but it is admittedly pretty hard to tell the difference between a roasted chicken and a stack of croissants.
Gowalla is back from the dead and available on the App Store.
I downloaded the app but couldn’t make it through signup flow. They’ve made the baffling decision to require sharing your entire contacts’ data. There are zero scenarios where I’ll do that. (Pretty ironic “we respect your privacy” note on the same screen.)
My phone’s address book also has virtually no relationship to who I’d use an app like Gowalla with. Am I going to share stickers with my plumber, my grandma, and my kid’s second grade teacher?
New single “Over” by Chvrches is out today on all the various services.
Chrvrches is pretty much the only new band I’ve stuck with over the last 10+ years. I’ll bounce around on new stuff now and then (and like musical cast recordings) but really their music is only thing I listen to consistently in any context.
