Flickr could actually do this really well, but its moment is the photo, not the post that can contain photos, so every moment I want would have to be an album. That feels very clunky.

(Instagram does this right, dammit, but I'm not feeding it anymore)

Apple TV lets you toggle to the local radio broadcast. I’m watching with whoever the local guys are now. Works great!

I'm kind of angry that it's as bad as it is.

All I want is a a journal connected to my photos, so I could annotate time as it goes by without creating a bunch of new files that live in separate apps.

Exporting from Journal produces a bare-bones html export in which that entry with multiple images is exported as a _single_ image — still stacked in a pile! — that's absolutely ruined with overcompression.

Come. ON. This is remarkably shoddy.

A pile of photos in the Journal app. They're just strewn in a stack. The one on top is a train platform.

MacOS Journal app feels so half-baked. I thought I'd try it for a travelogue of my past week, dragged some photos to it, and it just dumps them in a pile. There's no arranging, scaling for layout of landscape and portrait, nothing. C'mon, Apple, I'm trying to not shell out for Day One again, here.

Oh, look, Governer Disagree Better is happy to allow the UT legislature to change the rules of an election process already underway. Wild.

Dang, Terriers was a good show.

The round display of an Apple watch face that shows the horizon with sunrise and sunset times. The entire horizon has pivoted about ninety degrees counterclockwise, so it appears as a nearly vertical line rather than horizontal.

Yesterday’s long travel day from east to west really did a number on my watch’s understanding of where the horizon goes.

Say, for what it's worth, Geddy's autobiography is an interesting and fun read, read by him.

Choppy water of Puget Sound, with a large white and green ferry on the horizon. It's traveling west to east, toward the Seattle docks. It's a blustery day with some blue sky visible in patches behind wind-blown clouds.

Man, I love ferries.

Wow, that letter is a m a z i n g

Hmm, interesting. I've never looked at it except in its little embedded widget things, and now I'm curious. What stands out for you in it?

It’s honestly less of a free for allium than I expected in here.

Sending best wishes. You got this, and your docs and team are going to take great care of you throughout.

"Mom, I saw me. I saw me today."

It makes me so heartbroken, and so constantly angry, that people want to take this freedom away.

Right assignment versus left assignment conflicts fall aside in the face of I HAZ A VAR ITS 2.

Um. I respectfully yet urgently bring lolcode.org to your attention.

No work
Only macro photos

We have. Paul. Rothrock.

Say, I really enjoyed your post the other day about buying and listening to records.

I have a goal to learn how to repair the pockets on two lifetime favorite pairs of jeans. Could be my gateway to this. I’ll let you know if 2026 is the year :)

Your work is so good. It’s inspiring!

Holy smokes you transformed it! Beautiful job!

A breakfast sandwich made of a large, richly browned croissant, sliced and filled with egg, avocado and cheese. It’s luscious, stacked and delicous. It comes with a little spear of pickle, too.

Just checking in to say that the breakfast sandwich at Golden Bakery is so dang good.

For what it’s worth, the coaching is GREAT at turning a half idea into a whole talk, so don’t let that part hold you back.

Sometimes I recall that time the NYT culture critic said this Trump portrait, now going up on banners all over the federal government, has a warmth and humor to it.

Started another Cairn ascent, fyi.

Hell yeah, this worked, _again_.

Heck yeah!
