Yesterday, I got my elbow stuck between closing subway doors, bumped my back while crawling under a table to get to a concept phone, and accidentally clobbered a robot dinosaur. #MWC2026

Skydance acquiring Warner Bros is irksome. I really hope that Superman isn't used as a tool to champion anti-minority sentiment. Or Batman held up as a reason we should have billionaires. Will DC be independent? I doubt it.

If you're late, being mugged, and the mugger puts you on a pedestal, you're being held up by a hold up by someone who holds you up in high esteem.

Look. I want to set the record straight. But the record's will is too strong. Its lust for life leads it to take too many risks and commits petty crimes for cheap thrills.

Record, it's not worth it! Listen to me. I'm your buddy.

I reviewed the Tile trackers and they really behind without ultra-wideband support (UWB). UWB lets you find items with precision within inches.

Without UWB, Tile trackers get you within 30ish feet and the rest is mostly luck.

Entirely too tired. Then I sleep. Wake up tired. Sleep. Tired. Repeat.

This is new.

Why did the bike go nowhere?
Because it was too tired.
That works when said, not written.

Yesterday would have been my dad's 75th birthday. He passed away from a massive heart attack at the age of 53, his second heart attack (first at 35).

Liz helped me get through the day, and I'm grateful to her.

As for me:
At 35, I've had no heart attacks
Now at 46, no heart attacks
53 scares me

I would like to eat pizza, tacos, and apple pie today.

Will I do that? Stay tuned.

No. I won't.

I've been trying to write more here and I almost always feel in a lower mood when coming up with something.

I just have less to say.

A long time ago, I wrote "BOUNDLESS ENERGY" on a whiteboard. I'd look at it when I was exhausted, trying to scratch out a career. Then I'd have tons of caffeine.

The lesson? I don't know. Here's a gif:

Did we learn nothing from the movie, "Independence Day?" To aliens, we're all the same. Just humans. All of us.

Don't worry about being stymied, confounded, or befuddled. But bamboozlement is a serious concern. Visit a doctor or veterinarian or cheese monger immediately.

If you feel miserable every day and don't seem to get out of it ever, see a therapist or psychiatrist.

I was afraid that "fixing" me would make me less than me.

Nope. That's nonsense. You'll still be you. The work can be hard, but it's worth it.

I advocate for reusing tech around the house, but sometimes it's not worth it. That's my way of saying I should have never bought those Amazon Fire tablets on sale a while back.

My wife got me a huge bouquet of flowers because I officially got a promotion. She went with this color palette, in part, bc I enjoy the Reverse Flash character.

Apparently, I announce that I'm tired on this platform. Hm.

My energy is low, which probably means I need to exercise more (or at all).

Maybe I should write a book.
