Picked up the Kong-Pirelli collab drop from petsmart today. The Kong is made of the same C1 soft rubber compound used in F1 tires and endorsed by Lance and Lawrence Stroll! My dog loves it with some peanut butter and Milk Bone Beef Heart Elite Treats stuffed in there

If I touch my new earbuds in the wrong way while I’m on a call, it starts the music program on my computer and begins playing the first playlist, blasting Nine Inch Nails over the call. I don’t *think* people on the call can hear it.

My dog used to suck. Just in general. But then I switched him to Iams Performance Edition, the official dog food of Formula 1, and he’s an entirely new dog.

I like this take. I also really enjoyed Dilbert as a kid and teenager, and this was definitely part of it. Also, Dilbert seemed to give a window into the adult world with the insider knowledge that it was all arbitrary and pointless. An attractive message for a young person eager to seem wise.
my sort of underbaked take is i liked the dilbert comic strip as a kid because its depiction of a banal and arbitrary work environment where nonsensical top-down policies dictated my life resonated much more with my experience of school than my life later in the work force
rather than talk about Scott Adams I want to talk about something weirder (me). Who else was really into Dilbert when you were 12. Who else was like, boy, I can't wait to work a cubicle job

I’m usually against features like this, but the new AutoMix on Apple Music is mostly invisible, but will sometimes nail a seamless fade from dream pop to metal or something that you wouldn’t believe was possible unless you heard it

While I don’t recommend this as material to wind down with as you’re going to bed (leaves you with a pit in your stomach thinking about how all life on earth will probably be gone in the next billion years), I can recommend it as a fascinating read

I’ve got two mostly unused wrist + thumb splints from when I got hit by a car this summer, and it’s kind of surprising how there’s no charity or government program to give old braces to in Toronto. They’re🫰and if they weren’t covered by insurance I’d have been looking for a cheaper way to get them.

Early stage Duolingo loves to drill you about how the French word for “chocolate” is “chocolat” for five minutes, then tell you that one of your weak words is “oui” somehow.

Just watched House of dynamite last night. I’m late on the discourse, but I can’t help but post about it.
I was fully on board, and then it just doesn’t resolve when the answer is obvious to anyone who’s thought about nuclear deterrence.

Cater to locals who's concerns amount to fear of homeless people and loss of property value, or give 60 vulnerable people the help they need. If you can live with yourself after choosing option 1, I honestly don't know what to tell you.

Weird that Scheer’s line on the CPC resignation and defection is that their MPs are being harassed and cajoled into joining the liberal party. That really doesn’t portray his party members as having very much agency. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

I've flown direct from Vancouver to London UK a couple times, and one of the perks is that that you fly over Hudson's Bay, Baffin Island, and Greenland; over a part of a world that's very hard to access. I looked it up, and there's two that get you even further north:

Visited Quebec last week for the Mont Sainte Anne downhill mountain bike World Cup, and I have three takeaways:
1. the speed these riders go boggles the mind. I knew they were fast, but it’s different to see it in person.
2. The damage that 5 days of poutine for dinner can do to the body is immense

Dipping back into Arduino programming as part of an effort to make the spectroscopy instrument I’ve been building more reliable, and I’m definitely realizing I didn’t really understand C pointers when I first learned them in undergrad.

I’m very good at startling my flatmates by simply existing. One minute I’m in the kitchen checking my phone, the next someone is so shocked by my presence that they literally gasp and stumble. 🤷♂️
