Had a dream where I was about to buy a shitload of retro video games at a garage sale, but thought twice about twice about it and saved the money. So, nightmare?

Chuck Klosterman Has So Much to Say About Football Podcast Episode · The Book Review · 01/23/2026 · 45m

Didn’t think I’d get the perfect explainer about the consumption and discovery of today’s media through an interview about a book on football. But it also makes too much sense. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

After quickly creating a handful of Python micro tools/scripts I’d wished I had years ago on a whim, this future seems inevitable.

I can’t wait for that. My 3yo is still a bit young to play with, but she also has like 0 interest, which is kinda cool.

That’s so great to hear! I’m going to (sorta) make an effort to get back to actually playing. It really does bring me a lot of joy. I just have to determine *when* it makes the most sense amongst family, work, health, and reading (which was also reignited as a passion this year) ❤️

I’d like to get into journaling this year.

- I’d prefer Mac, but would like the iOS option.
- I like supporting indie devs focused on a single/few apps.
- I don’t see myself using a bunch of integrations. (I log books in StoryGraph, and could see myself doing the same for games too.)

Suggestions?
