Until the Switch 2 part I thought you were getting super philosophical.

Nothing like checking @nytimes.com every morning to see how reality is and wondering how long this can go on.

Let's see... earthquakes, plane crashes, invasions, heatwave, and Prime Day coming up. (no this isn't a promo).

This is my personal opinion and not that of any companies I may be associated with:

If you are set on getting an Android tablet, Samsung and Lenovo make the best ones. They essentially fix most of the shortcomings found in Android as a tablet OS.

Does anyone want to play the role of "iyaz akhtar" next week? The guy currently in the part is just terrible.

I do want to try the new touristy stuff like the Edge and the new 30 Rock I-beam thing. Let's go!

I was looking for something to watch on Netflix (for background sound) and saw an interesting premise.

My first thought: Is this in English?

I tapped through.

My second thought: <disappointed> Oh, Mark Wahlberg... </disappointed>

I'll find something else.

This morning on a walk, I enjoyed the sky and the tall buildings of NYC. I hardly ever look up since it's so touristy, but it was nice.

I need to do more analog things, which flies in the face of my chosen career. Huh.

Flash Thumbs Up GIF ALT: Flash Thumbs Up GIF

Considering the Flash can phase through things, could he deliver babies by reaching in and vibrating the child out, or would that lead to shaken baby syndrome?

I'm actually asking.

My mind is in the gutter.

Or more in the toilet.

I'll see myself out.

I'd like an omelet with peppers and onions with home fries. Wheat toast. Coffee, non-dairy milk, non-sugar sweetener.

Thanks.

Hello. Everyday I take a picture of the blue sky. Or maybe I took this photo by accident and shared it because it amused me.

Brilliant.

I'll remember this when I have trouble sleeping. Just imagine @mranthropology.bsky.social thinking of writing with a pencil.

I Got to Play the Nintendo Switch 2: Big Screen, High Frame Rates, Finally 4K! I spent hours with the Switch 2 and its new mouse-enabled Joy-Cons for a chance to play Metroid Prime 4, Super Mario Party Jamboree, and more. Cramped hands be damned, it felt good.

A pal got hands-on time with the NEW #NintendoSwitch2! Definitely worth the read if you're curious about the new console:

An attempt by senior Trump administration officials to discuss sensitive military plans in the Signal encrypted messaging app turned into a teachable moment in security when one of those officials mistakenly added The Atlantic’s editor in chief to that group chat.

Y'know, I've thought about something like this. A "do not approach" t-shirt, but many of them look too aggressive.

Random intrusive thoughts: Jobs I applied to while unemployed in 2022-2023:

- BH Photo description writer: a few interviews and nope.
- NYPL: No responses
- Climbing gym receptionist: Nope.
- AMNH video equipment tech: No responses

🀦 What a depressing time. Self-worth shot to hell. All good now.

Friday, March 7th, we will be moving our picket line AROUND the Financial District, the belly of the beast. We will disrupt business as usual of the rich financiers in their banks of marble, letting Sony and Alamo know that IF WE DON’T GET OUR JOBS BACK, THEN YOU DON’T GET NO PEACE!
