Somebody please explain to me why this man changes into a separate suit after dinner
If it’s a smoking jacket, why change his whole tie??

It’s test run night over here!
Trying my hand at Granna’s dressing. There’s a whole skillet of cornbread and six slices of bread in this thing.
She would have done smaller pieces of bread, I think. But this is close.

Marking my 2026 calendar with a reminder to just STAY INSIDE between Veterans Day and Thanksgiving next year.
The holiday pop-ups are out of control.
I don’t want to hear Charlie Brown Christmas Music even one second before December.

I know I’m missing out on a lot of opportunities because I’m not in SF
But tonight I serendipitously ran into my sister-in-law plus the nieces on my way to hot yoga
After a full launch day, done remotely from my kitchen table
This is the dream. It’s the whole dang point

Appears the Cloudflare outage hit Mindbody so I can't online book my yoga class for today 😑
What am I gonna do, pick up the phone, dial the studio and ask for today's class times like I'm calling Moviefone in 1998?

The email marketing nerd in my heart is curious what's going on here
Are they using SendGrid for their ESP for marketing emails? Do we think ChatGPT coded this email template?

Asian Hot Sauces T-Shirt
Every single food of mine needs some spice added to it. Inspired by my favorite aisle of the Asian grocery store, this Asian hot sauce tote bag is an homage to my favorite spices: Lao Gan Ma, sriracha...

Yesterday I made a gorgeous fall salad with local kale, shaved brussels, green apples and benne seed dressing
But I let the sprout leaves go down the garbage disposal, clogged up the pipes, and now our kitchen is unusable
Grateful for Doordash pancakes and disposable silverware this morning

So… at this point do we think the Bluesky mods are just running a growth tactic to force faster adoption of ATProto?
Like, we will make this app so hostile and so disciplinary you nerds will be forced to build your own alternatives
Go and distribute yourselves at once!

Today I'm timing out a keynote presentation for a product VP which means I've been sitting here talking to myself with a slide deck and a stop watch for hours
So glad I don't have to do this job at a desk in an open office

Has anybody else noticed search is super slow on Bluesky lately?
I used to search for “watercolor” posts and sort for most recent every day.
Lately I can’t get any new searches to load. Spins and spins on my phone.

At some point in my life, I’d like to know what it’s like to fall asleep without knowing there’s a crushing avalanche of overdue tasks waiting for the next day.

Banner night for Halloween Trick or Treaters!
Coasting into the 8 PM lull with a record 112 costumed kids, twice last year’s numbers.
So many great outfits but my favorite was an entire family dressed like Lord Farquaad.
Chocolate almost depleted. Surplus 100 pieces of fruit & sour.
