No disrespect to Apple’s crack team of song counters, but I have never heard that September song in my whole life, it’s not on any playlist I listen to, and it’s not in my library.

I’m sorry we’re too far out of the title race for you to convince me to watch this nonsense

I do not think of Pilates as “taking it easy,” even if set to the soothing vibes of pop punk

I feel like Amazon has opinions about the shows I look up on IMDB and their implications for my health

@theanfieldwrap.bsky.social any thoughts? (It’s not a problem with my account—nor a crisis—because I can access it in TAW Player.)

When you’ve lost Wired, it’s probably time to have a long sit-down and think about what you’re doing

It’s amazing that this isn’t the name of a fetish but a group of paying customers

I feel like when we renegotiate our Microsoft contract we should include “Teams will recognize our name as a valid word” as a term.

They should also have to explain what “Northeaster n’s” means

Some people at work made this version of my profile pic for a work thing, but I will say the semi-recognizable Standard Edition cracks me up, as does the repetition of volumes 7 and 10. I love the Three Essays, but would probably repeat other volumes first

Liverpool are having such a tough start I read this as “Michael Edwards,” and thought “I think maybe several?”

Listen, I like a compliment as much as the next fella, but I don’t think this is it

It’s nice that Claude is a messy, self-hating so-and-so like me

(I’m aware this is another species of sycophancy)
