One thing I’ve come to appreciate while trying out #Obsidian (again) is the ability to put a document in read only mode. So I can tap or click around and not have tool tips or pop overs appearing all the time.
If you use Riverside and also have a password manager that doesn’t seem to be popping up as reliably to log in anymore, they’ve updated their domain to a dot com from dot fm. Apple Passwords needed an update to what domain name to look for to keep working for me.
Apple had courage in 2016 to remove the headphone jack, but in 2026 they have zero courage to stand up to Musk’s p0rn generator app.
If you thought that once the NYT posted a exhaustive review of every camera angle that anyone who hadn’t already decided what happened was going to change their mind, you are not a serious person.
We’re dealing with a cult. It will take months (years?) of deprogramming, not facts or truth.
Happy terrible sleep last night to everyone who was listening to the wind whipping everywhere and lay awake wondering if there’s such a thing as winter tornados?

#Selfie a day for a year, day 148, Jan 13, 2026 edition.
I had originally recorded this quick tutorial to show my kid’s how easy it is to grab the various stems (aka tracks) from a song in Logic Pro. But in light of Apple’s announcement today, I figured I should make it public just to show what can be done without “AI” branding or subscriptions. 😆
One reason I won’t upgrade to the Apple Creator Studio bundle is so I can hang on to Pixelmator Pro’s app icon. The new one is garbage. (old / new)
I’ve been pleasantly surprised that Apple held on to buy once pricing for pro apps like Logic Pro and Final Cut Pro for as long as they did. With their new Creator Studio bundle I’m glad they’ve made it about AI more than the app’s core features. We’ll see how long that lasts.
I want whatever the web tech is called where I can highlight some text in a text field and paste a URL and have it automagically create a link for the text I highlighted everywhere. Every text box all the time.
Except if I don’t want it to do that. Be smart about it internet.
Post walk+snow shovel+toque head Monday vibes to bring back my #selfie project after taking the weekend off.

Stranger Things 5: The Finale, 2025 - ★★★★
I don’t know what everyone expected the finale to be like, but having rewatched season 1 before watching this season, it felt like it wrapped up in a way fitting to how it started. I loved it.
I don’t want to jinx anything, but could tonight be the night the Jets finally break their losing streak? 🙏🏻
