It’s January 7 and there’s snow and ice on the streets. And yet in the group for lunch today (not transportation advocates!), there were three who had biked to downtown Kitchener, and I wasn’t even one of them!

And what separates dishwasher loyalists like myself from the rest of the world is that, when this sort of thing happens to me, I do not blame the dishwasher or change my behavior.

My hot take is that there’s way too much fucking around happening too quickly. The finding out needs to happen faster, it’s not keeping up with the fucking around.

I love this video mostly because a former boss of mine is in it. The band basically knew they captured lightning in a bottle and used the labels money to take all their friends from Canada to Florida to shoot a guerrilla video with no permits and party all week.

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

I just wrote a poem for a friend’s engagement and was thinking about how fucking hollow and pointless it would make that if I’d punted to an LLM. Real gift card energy.
Some of you have forgotten that only three years ago you were perfectly capable of writing a text, writing an email, telling a bedtime story to a child, and it should worry you that powerful companies have convinced us we can’t do things we’ve been doing since the dawn of time.

I keep chilled water in the fridge, in Soda Stream bottles.
Sometimes I use it uncarbonated, for coffee or whatever. Sometimes I make bubble water.
Today I fucked up and made a carbonated protein shake. Surprisingly not bad!
