my children very politely asked if they could just please read their own books tonight rather than listen to me read. which is fine btw. it's only been every night for 9 years. with voices. some people might mind but not me. GOOD voices too, with real drama. but it's fine of course,

I’ve seen many toilet signs across many countries but this one will always remain the one that still intrigues me, especially the story behind it.

Is there a “Stopper Pack” equivalent of the “Starter Pack” ? I might have went on a “Follow All” spree but realizing unfollow has to be done one at a time 😭

This right here! “It takes a village” not just applies to raising a child but of the different roles each play in the community. This is so relatable!

About half the time, I use Apple watch to locate my misplaced phone (often hiding in plain sight). Biggest ROI 😂

I have always loved public libraries, but having young children has exponentially increased my gratitude and sense of indebtedness to them. Our local library is such a huge part of our lives. The books, the programming, the very intentionally curated kids’ section. It’s all such a gift.

Hearing someone say “Multi-modal model” is when I realized how “amazin” 2025 is going to be 😂

Wife: So you went to the party all by yourself?
Me: Yes
Wife: And you stayed three whole hours?
Me: Yes
Wife: Even though I wasn’t there to make you stay?
Me: Yes
Wife: And now you don’t want to talk to other people until?
Me: March-ish

(1/2) Gathering feedback and understanding user behaviour is a burden/responsibility, of the service provider. If I get spammed one more time by a non-essential service, asking for continously for feedback, I swear I will quit their service

And a stationery crawl afterwards for recovering from the food comma 👀

People: What productivity software do you use?

Me:

A personal favorite. The older I get, the more poignant it becomes...

If you’re looking for a free way to support an author, did you know you can ask your library to stock a book you want to read that they don’t have yet? And usually it’s a very basic online form? Google your library name plus the words “request a title” or “suggest a title” to find yours.

Just realized some of the self-protective behaviours I picked from using other social media platforms, such as being a mute spectator, are no more needed here, and its liberating! It’s such a joy to freely “like” and “repost”, without worrying about being a fodder for “ad”versarial algorithms!

Libraries are absolutely the best places on earth.

Subtitles aren’t just for deaf or hard of hearing players. They’re important for players in loud environments (who can’t use headphones), non-native speakers who rely on text to follow dialogue, and many neurodivergent folks who struggle to focus or process audio quickly. Just to mention few.
