Ever notice how Instagram will not allow your phone to go to sleep? Try it. Go the the main feed and then set your phone down. It won’t go to sleep. It will just keep playing whatever reel is on your screen on repeat forever until your phone battery is drained.
Ever hit ctrl+R or cmd+R on the wrong application and instead of your browser refreshing it’s some random app in the background? Focus is a struggle.
(2/2) However, having stopped using Spotify, I can’t partake in Spotify wrapped this year. Now, is my life any worse off because of this? Of course not. Am I disappointed? Ehhhhhhh, yeah a little. π
(1/2) So I stopped using Spotify as my main source of streaming music about half-way through the year and switched over to Apple Music. The experience has been relatively smooth and painless. I’m not so sure I hear the improvement in audio quality, but I think so? The placebo effect can be strong.
Ok I’m going to say something super controversial, but I’d like to hear your thoughts. I actually think the new iOS Photos app is an improvement. I find that it’s much more intuitive and I’ve had no trouble navigating it or finding recent photos.
I welcome your torches and pitchforks.
Spectrum internet service is down AGAIN in central Florida. π

Rewatched Gladiator last night. I’ve seen it a million times before but it’s been awhile. Joaquin Phoenix’s performance is underrated.
Cross-posting is fun
Fediversing is dope, see?
Testing it out now.
In The Godfather, Tom Hagan explains that Sollozzo is good with the knife. And yet, we never see Sollozzo use a knife. Ever. We never hear him bragging about how good he is with it. We never hear anyone else mention it either. Why the callout with the knife?
Dear Floridians: todayβs NYC quake was basically a tropical storm in terms of severity. Youβre welcome.

My family is totally normal.
This is your daily reminder that you only feel gravity when youβre NOT falling.
Found a bug. Fixed. And by that, I mean the wife found a roach in the cabinet, sprayed everything in there with bug spray, slammed it shut and put duct tape over it in the shape of a big X so no one in the house would use the now tainted cups and mugs in said cabinet.
Optometrists love to place that new pair of glasses on your face as if youβre royalty having the crown placed on your head at your coronation. You just know when you get home youβre going to unceremoniously throw those glasses right on the nightstand just like every other night.

I wouldn’t call it a “living document”. It’s a glorified wiki page. Electronic communications aren’t suddenly reproducing or taking in nutrients. Let’s all calm down.
