What is your favorite ebook reader font?
Been rocking Merriweather for a while now (on Kindle and Kobo). But would love to know what you enjoy.
(Side note: I have a physical book that used Merriweather as its primary font. That didn’t work as well. E-Ink only.)

This is just pics of #books I’m interested in. That’s literally it.
Hojoki I actually finished in the store. May revisit.
Byung Chul Han (Hope) has been fascinating (esp. Burnout Society).
Haikus are my fav. poetry type, bios my fav non fiction.
And decisions vs values… I think about this daily.

The MacBook Air M1 remains a perfect little writing machine. But at 8GB RAM + 256GB SSD, it’s starting to struggle under the pressure of managing a YouTube channel. (Forget video editing, I’m talking about just getting analytics from the YouTube Stufio backend is stressing it out.)

Another horrifyingly plausible book is “Nuclear War” by Annie Jacobsen, just in case an AI apocalypse is not your style.

Just heard about the book, “If anyone builds it, everyone dies” by Yudkowsky and Soares and now I reeeeally want to read it because modern day society is not horrifying enough yet. I want a plausible future in which a computer takes over everting over a math equation.

Well hello there! Looking forward to testing these! The Kiwi Ears Serene. I’ve liked Kiwi Ears products up to now — The Astral and Ardor bent my favorites — so I’m really looking forward to these! Any questions? Let me know!

I’m a fan of both liminal spaces and the Backrooms, at least what the Backrooms used to be… which was basically infinite, nonsensical liminal spaces. This conversation lays it out perfectly.

Me, last night: “tomorrow is gonna be soooo productive!”
Me, this morning: *watching Planet of the Apes after spending 2 hours watching random YouTube videos* “Wait, Jerry Goldsmith did the music for this?!”
Side note: I’m getting an overwhelming urge to jailbreak all my devices.

I’m still blown away by how good these budget wireless #headphones sound. The #KiwiEars Ardor are a pleasure.
Here’s my review: youtu.be/dznXc7aiuj8
And here’s the Amazon Link because they’re at 50% off right now. amzn.to/49f43CI

Went to a local bookstore (with amazing curation) and saw this: a random book for people to share what they were reading. Brilliant.

The Bills’ “Cold Front” uniforms make them look like they’re cosplaying a can of Redbull. (Hot take: I want to red helmets back!)

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again and again and again: “Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within” is a criminally underrated masterpiece. #StrongOpinion

NEW REVIEW! The Meze Poet is a mids and vocals lover’s dream. Before this review, that wasn’t me. But this headphone has changed my opinion.
