I try to keep my view to myself, for whatever reason. But I need to scream into the void today.
After 9/11, a lot of my friends were sent to war. Not all of them came home, and of those that did, it wasn't the same person.
Hearing the drum of war again is so frustrating.

The, "I stayed up too late playing Mario Kart World," Switch 2 Review:
Exactly what you'd expect from something called a Switch 2. I'm upgrading after buying the SwOne on day one, and yeah. I think after eight? years it's a worthwhile upgrade (he says with his Dreamcast still hooked up.)

Is Social Media Good For You? Apply the CUE Test. CUE stands for community, utility, and education. If “it’s not serving me in any way, it’s not a tool, it’s not building community, it’s fraying community,” then it’s time to log off. [kottke.org]
