Everyone accidentally following me for the first time on here
Just got on the scale for the first time in over a month and I've put a bit of weight back on. In a weird way though, I was almost relieved to see that?

It's a setback on paper but I know my habits have been worse lately and people have been telling me I look like I'm still losing, which seemed off

No resolutions in 2026, just poorly thought out schemes

Yeah this just shows that rent control works. We moved into our apartment in 2009. Our rent has only gone up about 25% in that time, but if we left today the next tenant would legitimately be paying double what we're paying now.
Ah yes. Prior tenants famously control rent prices for subsequent tenants.

There's a cover show tomorrow at The Garrison featuring Parklife (Oasis), and H20 (Aqua) for $10 and I'm very tempted to head through. I saw Parklife in October and they were very fun

Been procrastinating on this for a while, but there are computers in the arcade machines again. Will tackle the software after new years

Haven't missed a move goal in over 600 days now (last off day I had Norovirus and could barely walk to the bathroom). It's been great for me both physically and mentally. Not every day is perfect, but keeping moving generally raises the floor, and the long-term trend has made me so much healthier
The biggest change most people could make to improve their fitness is just to walk more. I try to walk a couple km a day. Over time those miles add up!
not gonna evangelize about it but tbh coming to understand the value of cardio is one of the biggest positive changes I've made of any kind to my adult life, for whatever that's worth

I’m guilty of doing this so I can’t talk too much shit but I still stand by my theory that the worst thing that ever happened to this place was that, of all the demographics of expats we let become the dominating force of content, we let Resist Twitter beat out the weird hobbyist nerds
Bluesky was generally better when we all more or less agreed to simply block dumb accounts and move on rather than quote dunk on them for clout.

Something’s wrong with the copy of NHL 26 I got for Christmas, please advise

I wish every Resist-type who keeps bringing up this document as if it were the main story in the files realized that they're doing more harm than help. It's an extremely crazy story sent to a tip line. Leaning into it as if it were the smoking gun makes it easier to dismiss the actual meat.

Found out Remember Sports is coming to Toronto in May. Unrelated, after missing their last couple tours, finally going to see Remember Sports in May www.youtube.com/watch?v=tt61...

Grabbed MLB The Show on 85% off last night and trying to play Diamond Dynasty late in the year is funny as hell. It's always been the most generous of all the Ultimate Teams but combine that with end-of-cycle and you literally have to make zero effort to start with a god squad

Almost wrapped up this bulk-redownload of all my music

Thinking back to the only album my dad ever overheard me listening to and told me he thought it sucked

Across many genres, including many albums and artists much worse

Always thought this would've been a great HNIC intro track when it came out. CanCon, too www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdST...

Lumurian seems to be the one that's going to be hard to find when all is said and done
The not available list was pretty short all things considered. Six albums. Have copies of most of them already but gonna seek out some 320s just for the love of the game

Here's a question - I'm mostly an album guy - but who are your "Just get the Best Of" bands/artists? Ones who have lots of hits but they're spread thin enough to skip the filler?
Whoever made that site that lets you rip albums directly off Tidal is my hero as I get that iPod I bought back into gear. Better quality than all my old MP3's and proper tags is huge.

Gonna be interesting seeing how many of the albums on my list (currently ~275 deep) aren't on there though
