YouTube video by Joe Jackson - Topic Forty Years (Live At The Roundabout Theatre, New York City/1986)

Forty years ago today, #JoeJackson recorded the song “Forty Years.” History might not repeat itself, but it certainly rhymes.

Speaking as a Seahawks fan:

It is baffling to me, and frankly infuriating, that every U.S. citizen doesn’t get to vote this way.

Yesterday I received an email informing me that my November 2025 ballot has been validated and counted. A ballot I received in the mail, completed at home at my own convenience, and sent back via mail (no postage required). #VoteWA

In fairness, a Subway sandwich, taken orally, is a deadly weapon.

As a former #Microsoft employee, it’s especially gratifying to see Gates and Allen enter the Hall of Fame together.

If they can’t be bothered to learn that it’s called DOL and not DMV in Washington State, they don’t deserve to keep their scammer certification.

#HotTake: Any list of the ten best movies of the 21st Century that doesn’t include #LittleMissSunshine is simply wrong.

Christmas is six months away. Have you started shopping yet?

Back in the day, a few of us developers talked about creating our own SDE recruiting poster for #Microsoft. We never did, but with a little persistence, I was able to get ChatGPT to create this mock-up:

The best part of official support for an iPad version of #WhatsApp is that after seven years, I can finally delete my daily “WhatsApp for iPad” Google alert.

I’m kind of disappointed Carney didn’t say, “We’d welcome the United States as Canada’s eleventh province.”

My favorite part of NFL Draft Day is knowing I won’t have to hear the phrase “mock draft” again for the next nine months. #NFLDraft

I can’t believe these are the guys who are going to choose the next pope.

This evening I saw a Tesla Model S with a Pagliacci Pizza delivery flag driving down West Mercer Way. If there’s something more #MercerIsland than that, I don’t know what it is.

I guess I can no longer say, “James Dolan may be the worst team owner in major professional sports, but at least he hasn’t screwed up the Rangers.”

History may not repeat itself, but it does rhyme #dontbeevil

Whenever I see someone wearing one of these on the streets of a European city, I have to resist the urge to ask them their feelings on the Mets signing Juan Soto during the offseason.

Thought for the day: If you’re in a London pub and want to make it obvious that you’re a tourist, order a pint of Guinness.

Can somebody tell me which George R. R. Martin book I need to read to find out what happens in #Severance season 3?

I’m so disappointed that today’s NY Times Spelling Bee used as a pangram a word that I hate with every fiber of my being.

#Protip for #SeaKraken fans: If you’re watching a game in Canada (or with Canadians) and Shane Wright scores a goal, do not — I repeat, do not — celebrate by repeatedly chanting his uniform number.

I watch #Severance only to learn the names of the people who produce the non-English versions.

Hello, Nyman.

I’m even more excited than usual for tonight’s #SeaKraken game, thanks to the regular season NHL debut of a certain young forward from Finland.

YouTube video by Crosby, Stills & Nash - Topic King Midas in Reverse (Live)

For some reason the song “King Midas in Reverse” has been going through my head lately.

I’m going to be irritated for the next couple of days by people saying “daylight savings [sic] time” and for the next eight months by people writing “PST” and “EST”.

On a more serious note, anyone who argues that once you’ve already purchased a Tesla you’re not giving the company anything more of value overlooks the fact that every time you drive a Tesla the company is collecting large quantities of monetizable data.

I own a Tesla and I give myself the finger whenever I drive it.

Opinion: Shane Gillis is live-action Peter Griffin.
