Overthinking myself into a corner is still my vibe for 2025. At least I think it is? Wait—what if it isn’t? Oh shoot. Have I already wasted the first 2 weeks of the year?

I think it’ll take 5+ years of near top tier games on the Mac before I will genuinely believe that this is the year of gaming on the Mac - but this kind of tool from Apple certainly helps move that along.

I really don’t need yet another blog or CMS, but the folks behind Good Enough have built a lovely little blogging engine in Pika that you should check out if you’re needing a blog home without a benevolent dictator at the helm.

Video games my kids are playing these days: Brawl Stars, Fortnite, Marvel Rivels, Balatro, Valorant, Pavlov.

Roblox used to be in the mix, but they lost access for reasons. 😊

I’ve found the key to running a successful business—particularly as a solo entrepreneur—anytime business is slow, make a schedule with your family of how you’re going to help out more with your free time.

It brings new and former clients out of the woodwork like magic!

Based off this teaser trailer, I’m glad it seems like Nintendo decided to do more of the same, just upgraded everything for the Switch 2.

Oh look… there’s more to yet another Matt Mullenweg behaving like a giant man-baby story. I am so surprised.

I don’t think CoPilot is ok. (This was the suggestion in a fairly empty text document.)

A screenshot of VS Code with CoPilot’s suggestion being a full screen of “ I’m not sure what I’m feeling. I’m not sure what I’m thinking. I’m not sure what I’m saying. I’m not sure what I’m doing.” over and over and over.

I kind of wish TikTok would publish USA user numbers vs the rest of the world and say… “meh - we’re actually going to be fine without you” 😆

The way a teenager can text “What are we doing for supper?” and it has nothing to do with “how can I help figure out supper” and everything to do with “is it worth it to skip a stop at McD’s on my way home today?”

I think Shortcuts on iOS / macOS are amazing, and I’m glad it’s a feature Apple continues to support.

I also 100% forget to ever use them. Which is why I’m glad Stephen Robles puts out videos reminding me about cool Shortcuts.

Bluesky has finally arrived: “Switch 2” is trending. 😆

Yeah sure - Matt Mullenweg can be trusted and this childish act of kicking people out so they will go fork WordPress - he’s become the internet’s biggest man-baby which is saying a lot.

He fell asleep like this so I guess I’m stuck here forever

I despise the way Meta is washing their hands of content moderation—and have to think they love that it’s “Meta” in the headlines, not “Facebook” or “Instagram”—but I like that a site like MacStories can choose to stop using them as a result.

These cold call emails with a “private video looking at your website” where it’s so obviously a mashed up quick screen recording of someone at my website with generic sales pitch video are why I hate sales and don’t trust anybody. 😆
