dude, your soda and your boots rock

No way. Bautista.

Aimee Lou Wood as down-and-out Olive Oil.

Fascinating! Appears not to be great though!

You know what movie needs a dark, gritty reboot? Popeye.

Ugh. This just happened to us for the first time coming back from Orcas. Honestly it’s kind of hard to avoid with some cars these days. You literally walk away from the car and it arms. The only way to disable it, apparently, is a special sequence while walking away… which I have already forgotten.

That looks very very safe. 😬

Showerheads, obviously. All functional and available to sample.

Over 25 years later, RSS is still the best way to stay informed about what matters with as little wasted time as possible.

Eyemanworry about you sometimes, John…

I still can’t believe you can get sued for falsely advertising the proportions of fruits in a Pop Tart but saying a car is “self driving” is perfectly ok.

The Protein Bar Arms Race

I am pro protein bar arms race, but so many of these are awful. Barebells and SimplyProtein are the only two that hit the right notes for me. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/27/b...

The bewildering phenomenon of declining quality Airplane seats are getting smaller and smaller, clothes are unrecognizable after the second wash, and machines now answer our calls. Quality and care for craftsmanship seem to be things of the past

If someone is already following you AND you are on whatever list, does the block still go into effect?

There appear to be multiple generations of people who know all about Mike & Ikes and Hot Tamales but have never even heard of Jolly Joes. #WeUsedToHaveACountry

These British and American people in Squid Game are ruining everything.

Yep. I was expecting a swap for an overpaid guard or something. Oh well.

Frame of preference A story of early Mac settings told by 10 emulators.

This archeological masterpiece by @aresluna.org is so good that I wish there was a "making of" film for it. I also hope Marcin gets an email every time someone completes every single activity in the piece. As a kid growing up with MacOS, I never saw it as complex. It is! aresluna.org/frame-of-pre...

Oh boy.

A nice ode to the Commodore 64, the first computer I ever used heavily. A great reminder that games were such an important part of this machine. It was like an Atari for people who also liked to make stuff. theprogressivecio.com/the-commodor...

What flavor did you go with?

How to keep a clean desktop if you're messy: Just throw everything in there. You'll never actually need to organize it. Trust me.

I love how inkjet printers crap out quickly if you use them a lot and somehow crap out even more quickly if you don’t.

It’s fine. I am just there for the bathroom karaoke anyway. Bring my own stash.

For me it’s the warheads mocha chip.

Bro they are using your likeness up here in Norway without an NIL deal in place…

Improving health and science outcomes is one of the things I’m most excited about inside of Microsoft AI right now. If you’re a Product Designer in the London area interested in shipping high-craft, society-positive work quickly, hit me up.

Vintage grape nuts cereal ad. An anthropomorphic box of G-nuts with thick sexy legs holds a man in a suit from behind.

Grape Nuts (holding me back): Whoa whoa whoa, hey man, just let it go! This asshole isn't worth it!

This evening in the pizza lab: “Purple Sunrise”

Okinawan sweet potato, goat cheese, grape tomatoes, sumac, and maple syrup. 🤌

Feature idea for AirPods: the case should beep for a few seconds if you close it and only one Pod is charging. Seems like your phone could receive an alert as well.
