Totally makes sense that my Apple All Time playlist was essentially the Pure Calm 2023 version.

It played nonstop during Noras final months. I still listen to that playlist today, but got smart enough to use a second user and an old phone since the replay playlists are fun!

6pm coffee as I wait for the #StarWars #Andor final arc tonight! This slots between Knicks games perfectly, too.

Absolutely proud of you all! HUG! So far, 3.1 million protesters counted today — that’s nearly 1% of the U.S. population! Photos are flooding social media everywhere. Still waiting on more numbers to come in.

Didn’t plan on tax loss harvesting VTI, but here we are.

Some popcorn reading. Going back to a time when wars were cold, and Russia was the bad guy.

Civilization 7 has been this year's cure to February cold, a too quiet house, and doom scrolling. It's way different from Civ IV, which has been the Civ game for me for the last 20ish years(!). Sure, it's a bit rough around the edges, but I'm enjoying learning. (🧵) #Civ7 @civgame.bsky.social

YouTube Premium is so valuable to me. Today was learning what a “hidden stitch” was to fix a hem on a suit. I didn’t do a great job for the first time, but good enough for this biz trip and something to try again! Glad I kept my wife’s sewing stuff and can go back to packing for trip #1 of the year.

@dkthomp.bsky.social Looking forward to "Plain History".

I've been watching the #NFL games on Fubo. That Fox 4k feed looked great and really makes everything else look horrible. Didn't even mind the announcers since the TV has been muted all day!

Brooke's story really motivated us to be even more public in Nora's Huntington's Disease journey (and me as a caregiver). Glad her fam is there for her.
Brooke Eby kept a low profile online for most of her life. But since being diagnosed in 2022 with ALS, or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, she opened up, joining a niche group of content creators with terminal illnesses documenting the progression of their diseases on social media.
Brooke Eby’s Humor About Living With A.L.S. Made Her a TikTok Star
After being diagnosed with A.L.S. in 2022, Brooke Eby could have turned inward. Instead, she opened up — and found a fan base online.

For a hot second earlier today, I thought the Giants were playing well enough to win. Then the unraveling happened. Now, big Raiders fan!

Caught smiling while looking over my laptop at the #AppleTV #Snoopy Screensaver. Aerials was interesting, but I'm here for this!

After so many years of caregiving, I did *everything* I wanted this year. Biggest regret: not seeing one of the 2 Op Ivy sets by @laurajanegrace.bsky.social and @catbiteband.bsky.social. Thanks YouTube bootleg from Riotfest and International Ska Fest for selling their stream. Watching again

Anyone watching the #Knicks in Vegas tonight? Traveling solo and wouldn’t mind a loud fanbase!

Today, after a year, I set my wife’s Facebook page to a memorial and set my status to widow. I wasn’t expecting such a prominent dating icon to pop up instantly!

I’m on vacation and trying to ignore the Soto news.

I want to read a headline that Tim Cook, Charles Dolan, and some asshole from Live Nation are signing an agreement to film shows at The Sphere for VisionPro. Just saw the virtual U2 show and was floored. I clapped at a screen.

I think I've come to the conclusion that following starter packs as opposed to converting them to lists makes sense as it helps tune the 'popular with friends' feed. It leads to larger following counts, but I'm not sure that matters. Still learning the tools Blue Sky and the ecosystem provide.

While writing her cookbook, Khushbu Shah became convinced that a spinach lasagna could be greatly improved by swapping in the flavors of saag paneer for the filling. It’s a dish she jokingly refers to as “lasaagna.” nyti.ms/3CTdM3M

The idea that MLB would consider changing the game so much with the "Golden Bat" rule is just too much. Ghost runner aside, I like the rules that compress the game, which for the most part keep the integrity of the game at the same time. Strong disagree!

If I’m honest, i was off of the other place for most of the last decade and am enjoying reconnecting with familiar names from the 518 and building my list from theirs. Between working remotely, caregiving, and Covid my local network has really shrunk. Hoping to fix that this year. 👋!

Haven’t spent a full afternoon in the kitchen in a while. Felt good.🍽️

Decided the leftover dark meat will become a curry today. House is already smelling great! 🍽️
