I’m Eric 👋

Social media strategist by day. Former tech blogger and podcaster. Forever Apple fanboy. Proud Disney adult.

I’m an introvert so find me most days at home with my cat Maisy bingeing shows, watching movies, or reading a steamy gay book. Otherwise escaping real life at a Disney park.

It’s weird that Mega Raichu gets a completely new face and eyes. Almost like they started with a Pikachu model, or it’s more specifically Mega Alolan Raichu.

My OG boy needs a model redesign!

I’m liking Claude Sonnet 4.5 way more than ChatGPT 5 these days, but the iOS app feels so behind. Voice mode is slow and less engaging than Chat or Gemini. No ability to create a Project in the app unless you’ve made your first one on web, and even then you can’t move chats in/out of Projects.

This is great. The fact that Meta is already launching Ray-Bans with a screen is so embarrassing for Apple. They urgently need to get their first pair of glasses out NEXT YEAR imo. www.macrumors.com/2025/10/01/a...

I'm so broken. I saw this photo and wondered when Tim Cook went to Epcot.

NO ERIC. THAT'S REAL JAPAN. THERE ARE OTHER PLACES IN THE WORLD.

Surprise hit for me of all Apple's new stuff. AirPods Pro 2 ANC never wowed me - I frequently had to check if it was even on. But the 3’s are incredible. Noise cancellation is noticeably improved, and they fit much more securely in my ears. Absolutely love these!
AirPods Pro 3 are a massive upgrade, from noise cancelling to sound quality, and live translation is wild. Full review coming *very soon*

Maybe some reporters can check how much they spent last time when they promised this. While you’re at it, check how much Foxconn spent. Narrator: It’s a press release.

Rope is a queer movie and you won’t convince me otherwise. Recommend!

Oh this is good. Very good. So many new projects bringing this park back to life and no more huge empty areas.

Today is the last day for Rivers of America, the Liberty Square Riverboat, and Tom Sawyer Island at Magic Kingdom.

I embrace change, so looking forward to what comes next. But I’ll never forget this most beautiful and original part of the park. 💙

If you were driving down the aisle of a parking lot and saw a car in front of you backing out of a spot, would you stop for them? Or keep going assuming you have the right of way?

“Well, if you didn’t want spoilers you should have stayed off social media”

You’re right, I should have known that I needed to consume all forms of entertainment available to mankind before logging on.

One thing I wish people understood about authoritarianism is life often looks more or less the same. Troops aren’t marching down the street every day; people go to restaurants, have their office jobs. But everyone knows that stepping out of line, even slightly, can derail your life with no recourse

Iger has circled all the way back around to the Eiesner sequel strategy, but what if theatres instead of direct-to-video.
Coco 2 is in development at Pixar. Original director Lee Unkrich will return for the sequel, which is set to be released in theaters in 2029.

Conspiracy theory: is Apple making the Pro and Pro Max (Ultra?) thicker so the Air seems even thinner by comparison? 😆
Here’s your first look at the iPhone 17 dummies, Thoughts?

HEY television news outlets how about we don’t put Daredevil spoilers in our headlines like an hour after the episode drops? We still haven’t learned that not everyone can watch everything the second it goes live, eh?

Context for those outside 🇨🇦: Mark Carney is replacing Trudeau as Liberal Party leader so he will be sworn in as our new Prime Minister. But we haven’t had an election - YET! He will almost immediately call an election that he could lose and may only be PM for a few weeks. www.ft.com/content/df86...
