“Hey asshole it’s 12:10pm and my food bowl isn’t filled with rocks. Let’s go.” - Neville’s got the sad, I’m dying because I haven’t eaten eyes locked in today.
Meta Quest VR stuff is wild. It shouldn’t be too surprising that Meta tries to connect all the things… but in Horizons app afterwards, it shows basically every VR “person” I walked past as a possible connection. I didn’t talk or interact with any of them. Some are kids I’m sure.
AI is taking over podcasting with it’s giant microphone and piercing, dead eyes.
Also be sure your podcast is inclusive of people with three legs.
Kid From the Opposing Team: “The kid was smiling!” Me working the penalty box: “You tripped him and so he drew a penalty.” Kid: “I didn’t mean to.” Me: “I don’t think the refs care.” Kid: “These refs are fixed.” Me: “Yep. Div C games are that high stakes that someone paid off the ref.” 😂
I went through all the trouble of setting up a dog cam for the stream only for said dog to lay on the floor instead of the chair.
I’m just over 200 likes away from getting my dream of a Brett Goldstein touring America documentary. I watch late night tv on TikTok in the morning.
I’m focusing 100% of my marketing efforts for 2025 on walking around empty Meta Horizon VR worlds asking if anyone needs a podcast editor. (This was at a Shawn Mendes concert?)
Every so often I manage to sneak on to my Xbox connected to my tv and play a bit of Fortnite or NHL ‘25.
I’ve settled back on using Gwenpool, Baymax rocket boots, and the longboard glider as my skin. Feels like the best mix of form and function. 😆 🎮
Up until 1 to pick up oldest from a winter formal at school, awake until 2:30 waiting for him to get home from taking pics at an odr, then up at 6:30 when youngest decides to make French toast first thing.
I’m starting to see the appeal of kids eventually moving out on their own. 😂 😴
I slipped on the ice while taking Neville for a walk tonight. I’m sure I’ll feel some random muscle pain in 2 days.
As much as 2C in January is nice, it’s awful for the sidewalks. I was ready to sell the house and move to Mexico.
I love my American friends. But ya’ll look like clowns right now.

I’d love to ditch Meta (FB, WhatsApp, IG, and now Threads), but whenever I open Threads I see posts from people i follow that I can’t find elsewhere.
Zuckerberg and Musk are vile, yes. But I want to connect with other humans—not brands—who are on their platforms. 🤔
I appreciate that Buttondown makes sure you’re serious enough about the relationship before allowing naked mode. 😆
